Obama pretty much prevented Breck Girl's planned speech about Two Americas. Oh, maybe nobody will notice the glaring contradiction.

Yes, she appeared on some form of tranquilizer. (or just drunk)

Even the talking heads fox were kind by calling her speech "unusual" or "different".

Bill Kristol just called her speech ridiculous.

Chris Mathews said he expected her to start singing "Don't cry for me Argentina."

I hope Rush plays that as the tehreyzahh HEINZkerry theme song.

Excerpt from the WashPost about TuHreezaPeronKerry's speech:

"A naturalized U.S. citizen who grew up in Mozambique and was formerly married to a wealthy Republican senator from Pennsylvania, Heinz Kerry greeted the audience in Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese, inviting immigrants like herself to participate in the political process.

She spoke of her life under dictatorship in Mozambique and apartheid in South Africa, where she studied and protested.

"I have a very personal feeling about how special America is, and I know how precious freedom is," Heinz Kerry said. "My right to speak my mind, to have a voice, to be what some have called 'opinionated,' is a right I deeply and profoundly cherish. And my only hope is that one day soon, women who have all earned their right to their opinions, instead of being called opinionated, will be called smart and well-informed, just like men."

........"Wearing bright red and facing a sea of red signs that said, "We Love Teresa," Heinz Kerry then extolled her husband of nine years.

"John believes in a bright future," she said. "With John Kerry as president, we can, and we will, protect our nation's security without sacrificing our civil liberties. In short, John believes we can, and we must, lead in the world as America, unique among nations, always should--by showing the face, not of our fears, but of our hopes."

What a lulu!

Edwards w/Elizabeth and Larry King are on CNN now checking out the speech site for tomorrow. "He's practicing his smile." (Honest to God remark by Larry.)

Susan Es-screech just gave Teddy Kennedy a rating of "4 donkeys". She's a former (and obviously current) groupie, still hoping to get lucky with him someday. Give it up, Susan.

Susie's guy (Dukakis) is nowhere to be seen! Where o' where is Tank Dukakis?!? LOL ;D

"(Fox did a story about credentialed bloggers, a story about FR would have been more significant.)"

We have some Fox FReepers and lurkers here. Better than stories about FR though, some FReepers are interviewed on Fox News. Since we have lurkers from other areas of hte media, the news (with screen shots) DOES get out.

The Republicans tried to get TAY-RAY-SUH to run in 1991 to fill the vacant seat of John Heinz.

Both parties have offered the seat to the wife when a member of Congress dies suddenly while in office

Yes, it is a scary thought

Yep. Yet, I cannot imagine being associated with that screwball! Jumpin' Jim was bad enough.

Chris Wallace was spot on when he said... "I was waiting for Heinz-Kerry to sing "Don't cry for me Argentina" at the end"

"She seems to be married to Prince Valium..."

LOL! Funny you should say that. Here's an excerpt from an interview with Kerry's sister:

"As a big-eyed, big-jawed boy, little John Kerry would round up the family to imagine himself as a mythic hero of arboreal England: a medieval knight, or King Arthur.

Or, sometimes, it was Robin Hood. "He was an adventurous kid, full of imagination, who always used to make up these imaginary games," said Peggy Kerry, the candidate’s older sister, recalling the days back in Millis, Mass., and Brittany, France, when "Johnny" led his three siblings and a brood of first cousins in elaborate re-creations of history and fantasy. "He was always rallying us to re-enact Robin Hood and King Arthur."

Here's the link to the story I posted on FR last night:

so why does she continue to support organizations that seek to spread anarchy and turn this country into a marxist leninist state?

"...he mostly sounded like a more eloquent version of Dickie Gephardt."

Exactly!! The same warmed-over message in a shiny new package...there's really nothing to distinguish this guy from Jesse Jackson or Howie Dean. To call him "The Tiger Woods of Politics" is an insult to a very fine golfer.

FReegards...MUD
