KETCHUP IS NON-PARTISAN
The H.J. Heinz Company issued a press release to make it clear that the 57 varieties company has no connection to Senator Kerry and his wife (other than Teresa's and her family's ownership of some stock). But the release also made a good political point, that placing factories of U.S. companies overseas (and the jobs that go with it) is not always such a bad thing. Of course, such nuance is lost in John Kerry's campaigning against exporting jobs.

No word on whether William R. Johnson, CEO of the H.J. Heinz Company, appreciates being called a Benedict Arnold CEO for sending jobs, and not just products, overseas.
