That's pretty hot. I'm too lazy to order.
It's weird, but the reason because of Theresa Heinz Kerry (wife of John Kerry)- hence, Heinz, the ketchup maniacs. If she gets a portion of the money (I'm not sure about this), Democrats are getting supported. Financially, anyway.
Just look at her suit, man, does she love that red.

Wait, this has nothing to do with the Heinz company??? I'm confused... Updated On: 8/18/04 at 08:59 PM
republicans are angry that heinz ketchup is "supporting democrats" because of kerry's wife, so they decided to make their own republican ketchup.
Why is Heinz supporting democrats??? and why do republicans need their own ketchup???

Oy, I explained it.
Although I just simply buy another brand of ketchup. It's very simple.
Yes, I've heard of this.
Apparently, the makers of this product cannot keep up with demand.

Wow. Even ketchup has gone politcal. Is nothing sacred and pure?
sure - mustard is. Nobody wants to be yellow.... (but hot and spicy is always nice!)

It's not like Heinz company profits automatically go to some shared Heinz-Kerry account that Kerry can draw upon for his campaign. What BS- let's fight over condiments instead of actual issues.

Tell that to the people trying to sell me some Kerry gear on the street today. I just gave them the look.
I never got the whole merchandise thing.

I love how these people are so pathetic. Like you haven't been giving Heinz money for years and years?!
wtf.
IT'S KETCHUP! FOR FRENCH FRIES! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
the whole website, like the republicans, makes you feel UNPATRIOTIC if you don't support them. WTF.
"we support Reagan"
"we only come in ONE flavor: American" - yea cause we're BETTER than everyone else.
I'm so sick of this country. I'm moving once I'm out of college. I hate hate hate it here.

Don't underestimate what you have here. The country I was born in was democratic, Westernized, and all that. But there's no place quite like the U.S. There's idiots in every country- don't let the ones here get you down.
But if you really can't stand it here, moving is probably for the best. I hope you're happy wherever you go. Just out of curiosity, are you going to renounce your U.S. citizenship? (If you have it?)

I like Hunts better anyway.
At least they're donating money made to a scholarship fund. It'd be interesting to see if it actually does TASTE better than Heinz.
I actually saw a thing about this but I didn't know it was real...
This almost tops the "freedom fries" crap.
W Ketchup on Freedom Fries. Available Everywhere

Excuse me? Did you just group all Republicans together? We arent all the same! We dont all believe the same things. To me, this is the equivalent of someone saying "all Asians/gay people/black people/etc. think exactly the same way."
This is the first I have seen of this, but it probably started out as a funny little thing that grew. There are extremists on both ends of the spectrum.
Sorry... I hate to totally overreact but I am constantly fight with both sides about this. It seems people willing to try to understand others' perspective are a minority in both parties. Really sorry, guys. I am in politics and already jaded at the age of 20.
This is going to be a tiring campaign season.

"Excuse me? Did you just group all Republicans together?"
People do it. Unfortunately. I've tried to just walk on, although I have to admit that I've snapped back once or twice...
Ketchup makes people crazy
I have concluded:
Nothing kills a thread like a republican.

I've killed more threads than I care to.
What brand of ketchup should independents use, then?
Broadway Legend Joined: 3/4/04
Like Democrats aren't grouped together as pinko baby-killing, terrorist-loving, tree-huggers all the time. Everybody gets stereotyped. Get used to it. And it's a sad fact that a site that has more Democrats than Republicans will have more stereotyping of the latter than the former. It's not a reflection on either party- it's just math.
