' I checked and my bottle of Heinz catsup says "Product of Canada"! Guess I'll be checking out all the Heinz products at the store!' Shortly after reading the following e-mail content, I happened to look at the' ' label of a jar of Heinz sandwich slice pickles. Yep...."Made in Mexico." Check some of your Heinz products. Sen. John Kerry keeps talking about U.S. corporations leaving this country and setting up shop in foreign countries, taking thousands of jobs with them. He is right,' because that has happened.
However, he is trying to blame it on George W. Bush. As far as I' know,' ' Bush has not moved one factory out of this country because he is not' ' the owner of a single factory. That cannot be said about Kerry and' his wife, Teresa Heinz-Kerry. According to the Wall Street Journal, the' Kerry's own 32 factories in Europe and 18 in Asia and the Pacific.' In addition, their company, the Heinz Company, leases four' factories in Europe and four in Asia. Also, they own 27 factories in North' America, some of which are in Mexico and the Caribbean. I wonder how many hundreds of American workers lost their jobs' when these plants relocated in foreign countries. I also wonder if the' workers in Mexico and Asia are paid the same wages and benefits as' workers in the United States. Of course they're not. However, Kerry demands that other companies that relocate should pay the same' benefits they did in the U.S. Why does he not demand this of the Heinz' Company, since he is married to the owner?' If Kerry is elected, will he and his wife close all those foreign > > factories and bring all those jobs back to America? Of course they won't. They're making millions off that cheap' labor.'
Either You Are, Or You Aren't a Renaissance Woman!
A renaissance woman is someone who sets her own agenda for personal achievement and will not allow herself to be manipulated or intimidated by self-proclaimed spokesmen who try and wrap their political philosophies around terms like "equality," "choice," "peace," "tolerance" and "diversity." She understands that she has been created for such a time as this and embraces her destiny as a challenge and not a curse, no matter what her personal circumstances. She is a winner not a whiner, a leader not a follower, a victor, not a victim. She wants to change the paradigm of the feminist movement that has served to marginalize and ridicule women who do not follow their collective agenda.
Millions of women around the country, from all professions, backgrounds and cultures, are courageously picking up the mantel of leadership and virtue, that the feminist movement has squandered. They are providing thoughtful and accurate analysis, on a variety of issues, of where, and who we are as a nation.
Remember, this is not a club. It is a mindset!
