Remember a few days ago when a reporter asked John Kerry if he owned any SUV's? Kerry initially told the reporter that he didn't own any, but when the reporter asked about a certain Chevy Suburban parked at Kerry's Idaho retreat Kerry responded that it was the "family's" vehicle. Because when something belongs to Kerry's "family" it doesn't belong to him, right?

As it would turn out, Kerry's family owns more than just one SUV.

From the Boston Herald:

At last count, there were eight ``family'' cars and SUVs, including the 1995 Suburban (15 mpg highway, 12 mpg city), a 1993 Land Rover Defender (12 mpg highway, 10 mpg city), a 1989 Jeep Cherokee (20 mpg highway, 16 mpg city), a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee (20 mpg highway, 15 mpg city), a 2001 Audi Allroad (21 mpg highway, 15 mpg city), a 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser (25 mpg highway, 20 mpg city), a 1985 Dodge 600 Convertible (26 mpg highway, 23 mpg city), and a 2002 Chrysler 300M (26 mpg highway, 18 mpg city). Kerry, however, only owns up to the latter two.

Then there's the 2002 Harley Davidson (his), two powerboats (one his, one hers), a power inflatable 2001 Novurania (his), and a Gulfstream II private jet (hers).

Matching powerboats? A private jet? Forget about reducing America's dependence on foreign oil, if the Kerry family gets another vehicle they're going to need their own private oil pipeline.
