Should the worse case scenario happen if John Kerry is elected President of the United States, his wife Theresa Heinz Kerry will be representing our country as the First Lady. Since she will be in the public eye, it is prudent to understand the woman who would be residing in the White House for the next four years. Here are some of the ways she views her world.
She has been quoted, "Another thing that drives me crazy, and I hope I don't offend anyone here, is WAL-MART," "They destroy communities."1 Although Mrs. Kerry holds one million dollars of Wal Mart stock, she evidently didn't consider herself liable when she made her accusation.
The Democratic hopefuls' choice for First Lady is also quoted as saying, "Now, politically, it's going to be Teresa Heinz Kerry, but I don't give a shit, you know? There are other things to worry about."2 after she resigned herself to allowing John Kerry's staffers' refer to her as Theresa Heinz Kerry in campaign literature.
More gems from Mrs. Kerry include, "everybody has a prenup," and that if she caught her husband cheating on her she would maim him. 3 In Boston, neighbors can recall when she had the city move a fire hydrant so she could have a place to park.4 When asked if she would consider running for office after John Heinz died, she explained: "Today's most creative thinking is not happening in Washington. Today, political campaigns are the graveyard of real ideas and the birthplace of empty promises."5 I guess that would explain why, only at the urging of John Kerry's campaign manager, his she switched her party registration from Republican to Democrat.
Philanthropic practices would indicate that the near billionaire Heinz Kerry is sympathetic toward the fifth column because of her donations (through the Howard Heinz Endowment) of more than $4 million to the Tides Foundation between 1995 and 2001. Tides troubles me for the following reasons. Its Iraq Peace Fund and Peace Studies Fund both support the War Resisters League and Ramsey Clark's International Action Center. The latter sponsors International ANSWER and United for Peace and Justice; run by long-time communist revolutionaries. Ramsey Clark offered to defend Saddam Hussein.6
Tides supports both the Democratic Justice Fund, created through the joint efforts of Tides and George Soros, which seeks to ease U.S. restrictions on Muslim immigration from countries designated by the State Department as terrorist nations and the Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR), a group that bills itself as a "Muslim civil rights group," but whose leaders are linked to the terrorist group Hamas. Finally, Tides supports the National Lawyers Guild (begun as a Communist Party front); whose member Lynne Stewart was arrested for helping her client Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, communicate with terrorist cells in Egypt. 7
The Heinz Endowment donations are available to fund additional Tides Foundation causes: The economic justice movement which promotes higher cost of living wages, groups promoting abortion on demand, homosexual activist organizations, the "Death Penalty Mobilization Fund which is working to reform the death penalty and to abolish capital punishment, a group called "Barrio Warriors"; a race-conscious Hispanic organization calling for the "liberation of Aztlan" (the American southwest, including California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas), a variety of gun control groups, controversial needle exchange programs, euthanasia and assisted suicide organizations.8
Pamela Leavey says that at a campaign event which she attended, "When Theresa Heinz-Kerry arrived, she handed me a pin that read in the center: 'Asses of Evil' with 'Bush,' 'Cheney,' 'Rumsfeld,' and 'Ashcroft' surrounding it." In this writer's wildest dreams, I can't imagine any of our former First Ladies engaging in this low brow conduct.9
Although John Kerry is against shipping American jobs overseas, out of 79 factories that Heinz owns, 57 are overseas. The Kerry's benefit monetarily from the very types of business practices which he argues should be eliminated.10
My opinion is that either John and Theresa Heinz Kerry don't understand the implications of their behaviors on American society therefore they are unfit to live in the White House or, they are deliberately affiliating with a radical movement whose goal is to disavow our governing principles, and as such; they are not only unsuited to live in the White House, they shouldn't be in any position in which they affect policy decisions for the United States.
The woman who refers to herself as an African American (without the hyphen) is quoted as saying, "I can't believe my family left Africa and came to this country" and, "I can't believe I ever even married an American."11 It's common knowledge that she was against the idea of her husband running for the office of President. It is only in the past year she relented. "A politician's wife has a hard life," and "To become more of a 'thing' and less of a person is terrible."12 Does this sound like someone who should be First Lady of the United States?
Theresa Heinz Kerry might be willing to bolster the welfare payrolls with my tax dollar but in reality the only welfare she's looking out for is her own.

We have only see the tip of the iceberg on this hag er I mean lady.
Shhhhhhhhhhh.....let her keep talking :>)
Tides also funded most of the anti-2a referendum drive in Michigan back in 2001. It failed since it was an illegal referendum (appropiations were included). Good.
I have seen this woman in action - up close - and she is one mean person.
INTREP - VVAJK
Green acres is the place to be
Farm living is the life for me
Land spreading out,
so far and wide
Keep Manhattan,
just give me that countryside.
New York is where I'd rather stay
I get allergic smelling hay
I just adore a penthouse view
Darling, I love you,but give me Park Avenue.
The Chores!
The Stores!
Fresh air!
Times Square!
You are my wife.
Goodbye city life.
Green Acres, we are there!
Ms. Heinz-Married is quite amusing - I'm sure, like their sleeping arrangments, Mr. and Ms. will be digging their own separate holes.
ping
I can imagine. Just a big hypocrit. Care about the environment and have all those houses. Give me a break, I wasn't born yesterday.
Try the drop down menu at freerepublic.net.
Another condign affirmation that money does not confer good breeding upon its owner.<P. Regards,
The Clinton's can give them pointers in digging techniques.
Do you know what her husband Mr. Heinz was like politically? I wonder if he would approve of the way she spends his life time earnings?
I formated and forgot to save my bump list so BUMP PING
