Second, Kerry's personal character has, so far, appeared in a bad light. He has always presented himself, for the purpose of Massachusetts vote-getting, as a Boston Catholic of presumably Irish origins. This side of Kerry is fundamentally dishonest. He does not follow Catholic teachings, certainly in his views on such issues as abortion - especially when he feels additional votes are to be won by rejecting Catholic doctrine. This is bad enough. But since the campaign began it has emerged that Kerry's origins are not in the Boston-Irish community but in Germanic Judaism. Kerry knew this all along, and deliberately concealed it for political purposes. If a man will mislead about such matters, he will mislead about anything. You not only are reaching, you're over the top. Kerry's grandparents, I think on his father's side, were Jewish. They converted to Catholicism when they moved to the states. I think Kerry's grandparents on his mother's side were Protestant. However, Kerry was raised Catholic. This is no secret.....its common knowledge. Now don't you feel foolish?!
