Sen John Kerry's ketchup heiress wife, Teresa Heinz, is shaping up to be no help in his bid for the White House.
The other day Heinz made a bizarre speech to the Massachusetts Women's Political Caucus in which she failed to mention Kerry even once.
The Boston Herald described it as a "35-minute harangue about hormones and the big, bad pharmaceutical companies' conspiracy against women."
One attendee described it as "endless, pointless and confusing" and "far, far too technical," noting people all but ran for the door.

importance of pensions and savings to their retirement security (When your dead husband leaves you with $800 MILLION DOLLARS)
In other words, YOU ARE TOO STUPID TO INVEST YOUR OWN MONEY. Teresa (Te-RAY-sa) Heinz (now)Kerry, will TELL YOU what you NEED to know and how YOU NEED to invest for your retirement (IF there is ANYTHING left when HER HUSBAND is (God forbid) President). No tax-cuts for you, you STUPID LITTLE PEOPLE.
Teresa Heinz Kerry has helped to educate women on the vital importance of pensions and savings to their retirement security. To further this work, in 1996, she established the Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement (WISER), a Washington-based think tank. She underwrote both the publication of a nationally acclaimed book, Pensions in Crisis and the creation and production of a magazine supplement ----What Every Woman Needs to Know About Money and Retirement---- that was published in Good Housekeeping and in US Airway's Attaché magazine, and has been translated into Chinese, Portuguese, and Spanish. In March 1999, she testified before a House Ways and Means Committee in Washington on the circumstances and needs of poor elderly women in America.
Since 1995, she has sponsored and hosted annual conferences open to the public on Women's Health and the Environment in Boston, bringing women together with health, environmental, and policy experts. She believes that the conventional concept of the environment -- involving only the traditional "green" issues such as air and water quality -- is no longer adequate to the lives that people (and especially women) live today. The design of office equipment and work systems, the architecture of the built environment, and the extent of chemical and pesticide exposure all have significant implications for women's health and well being. The Women's Health and the Environment conferences (the eighth will be held in October in Boston) examine key health issues confronting women in the workplace and the home, including sick building syndrome, ergonomics, and the significance of the workplace as a public health issue. Attended by more than a thousand women annually, these conferences have increased public understanding of the special health risks facing women from the physical and cultural environment, of the diverse sources of disease, and of the need for public policies that protect women's health.
* sick building syndrome - see John Kerry's brother Cam and his lawfirm, if you would like to sue. Cam has become a national authority on the representation of property owners and insurers in toxic tort litigation involving liability for injuries from lead-based paint and mold.

Teresa Heinz Kerry emerges from her Boston town house in a black workout leotard and dark glasses (though the morning is overcast), nibbling a handful of granola en route to her Pilates class. For a minute, she stops to chat with the young man who will be driving her husband, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, around that day. And, leaning up against the campaign van, she asks him to make sure the senator actually eats the healthful lunch their maid has prepared for him and packed in a Whole Foods bag. "So what are you going to do today, Mrs. Heinz?'' the driver says in response, perhaps aware that it won't be long before her husband is baying for preservatives, and on the lookout for the nearest 7-Eleven. "Oh, I'll probably cry all day''--pause, 2, 3--"because my--husband isn't around,'' she says wryly, a la Miss Scarlett declaring she will weep into her pillow every night Charles Hamilton is off fighting the Yankees. "No, I think I'll catch up with myself today,'' she says, pulling a handful of auburn curls up off her face, "which you never get to do in this business.''
But it's Teresa Heinz Kerry--wealthy "venture philanthropist,'' multilingual former U.N. interpreter and longtime stay-at-home mom, until her three sons were grown--who makes Hillary look downright retiring.
"And no one's about to'' ask her to change now, he promises. For the most part, rather than trying to rein in his freewheeling wife, Kerry seems to be trying to emulate her, speaking much more directly in this campaign, PG curse words and all, than in his pre-Teresa (tehr-AY-zuh) days.
Mrs. Heinz Kerry seems to enjoy dispensing tips on subjects ranging from which sunscreens contain carcinogens to the immunity-boosting antioxidants in green tea
Kerry's friend George Butler, the documentary filmmaker who was once a reporter for NEWSWEEK, says, laughing: "In January '68, I reported on a lunch Nixon gave and watched Pat Nixon gaze at him for three hours straight. I don't foresee Teresa Heinz --doing that under any circumstance, ever.''

I saw an interview with her a few weeks ago--60 Minutes, I think. She keeps a picture of her former husband displayed alongside one of Kerry. I guess she likes to remind herself of where all the real money came from.

Who would have ever guessed that a former NEWSWEEK "reporter" was one of the protesters helping Kerry in the anit-war movement after Vietnam? /sarcasm
The protests were set for the week of April 20. Kerry spent some of his time at the Georgetown townhouse of his longtime friend George Butler, working the phones, trying to round up veterans.

At least Hillary was intelligent, this gal has all of Hillary's mania for power and control, but is a sheer nitwit. She ramble's incoherently. The only thing that I've ever taken away from any of her speeches is that she believes herself to be a member of the "elite", and therefore has a right to use the government to tell everyone else how to live.
BTW, is she even an American citizen? I seem to recall seeing somewhere that she was from Europe.

I saw a post on an animal rights website where she had
supposedly stated that rabbit was a perfect food for
children.
SAY WHAT? WHAT YOU TALKING ABOUT, WILLIS?
Being a bunny myself, I think her idea sucks.
To: Little Bill
"Accessible and affordable child care" It's for the chil'run. Really.

It seems likely to me that she abuses horse tranquilizers. Hee-hee. It will be a fun thing to watch this weirdo try to keep it under control until November.

I think the woman is psychotic. This is not the first time she has given a speech like that.
If this continues, she will turn off lots of voters. Just wait until the wives get home and tell their husbands not to vote for Kerry.

The only reason that these women would tell their husbands not to vote for Kerry is if Hitlery were running. They have to much time, to much money, and not enough important things to do.

For those of us that enjoy watching our opponents make asses of themselves, this is going to be a fun election year indeed.

Liz--here is the garbage mouthed nut bags last quote on insisting being called by the last name "Heinz" in the media interviews she gives:
""Now, politically, it's going to be Teresa Heinz Kerry, but I don't give a shit, you know?"
