MILWAUKEE ) - Teresa Heinz Kerry, the outspoken wife of Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry, pulled no punches on Monday in telling a rally what she thought of the Bush administration -- hell.
And later, discussing the war in Iraq, Heinz Kerry subtly questioned Republican President Bush's intellect, saying: "It's vital for anyone with intelligence to acknowledge mistakes and change positions -- hello."
When a Bush supporter with a bullhorn shouted "four more years" from the back of a large crowd packed into a downtown Milwaukee park, Heinz Kerry, who was introducing her husband, responded: "They want four more years of hell."
"Three more months!," she declared, referring to the Nov. 2 presidential election.
Last week at the Democratic Convention in Boston, where Kerry formally accepted his party's nomination as Bush's opponent, Heinz Kerry briefly caused a stir when she told a reporter to "shove it."
"She speaks her mind and she speaks the truth and she's pretty quick on her feet too," the Massachusetts senator said when he took the microphone in Milwaukee.
"That's why America is going to embrace her and she'll make a spectacular first lady of the United States of America."
"flop sweat" - I learn something new on FR everyday!
Unfortunately, Kerry is living that nightmare of getting what he wanted most in life. Lots and lots of money. Unfortunately, none of it is his, and he had to sign a prenup to seal the deal. He's stuck with a domineering, lunatic, 3 billion dollar wife who pays the bills, buys him his expensive toys, and maintains his jetset lifestyle. The many SUV's all belong to the family, so he says. She even holds the mortgage to that Louisburg townhouse he called home. He has absolutely no power in that relationship. He's on his knees 24/7. No wonder he cheats on her, and no wonder he wants to be President. He'd have power, finally. But, alas, it's not to be. That old song, 'Just a gigolo', fits Kerry like a glove. Why the heck should the American people suffer so Kerry can look in the mirror and say, 'I'm somebody.'
Who knows, maybe the fair TerAYsa has fleas or head lice.
I've read about this. It's kind of scary considering what a change it would be. What do you think?
Remember the sly jokes about Kitty Dukakis (whom the reporters all knew was a raving alcoholic, but never let on during the campaign), about her 'kitty litter'...empties. Right after he lost he checked her into a dry out sanatorium. I bet they all know exactly why TerAYsa behaves so outlandishly. But because she's the RAT candidate's better half, we aren't to know if she's nuts or just plain drunk.
John Heinz was a Rockefeller republican, one of those country club republicans. Maybe not far enough to the right in those days. We lost a good man, though, and so did TerAYsa and their kids.
Does Kerry's staff send her where she'll only be seen by a few people? (That way she can make a fool of herself and it won't matter. And it keeps her happy...doubtless that's on order from Kerry.) The campaign staff must be at their wits' end. Damage control is impossible. Kerry's going down in flames in front of the whole country. Every photo op is a disaster. Every time he opens his mouth he prattles on and sprays gobs of spittle (which seems to be an unfortunate side effect of botox). No wonder she doesn't want him kissing her. Well, after last week's convention debacle, heads will roll. Most amusing. More pictures of Bush cutting brush and acting like an adult who's President of the United States and Kerry prancing around on vacation are in the works. (That's what the staff does, they send Kerry on vacation every time the polls nosedive.) It could be that he needs time off because of his previous prostate cancer, and if so, the voters should be told.
Unbelievably dumb. He had a chance to ask that man with the bullhorn to join him on the podium and discuss the issues. He would have come off as smart, polite, and there would have been a clever news story that night. Instead, he called Bush's supporters 'goons'. What a dope.
RATs will try and steal elections in every single state. We'll have to have monitors and cameras.
I saw it live at the convention and I still don't believe it. Gotta be drugs.
That picture is extremely peculiar. The guy to Clinton's left sure looks like a cardboard cutout. Well, why not. We're all adults here, right? We can take a cardboard cutout on a podium instead of a real live person. That's okay. Maybe Kerry's staff will decide they'll try that with TerAYsa. Kerry can prop up her picture and say she'd love to be here today, but she's a little under the weather or drying out in the loony bin. Whatever. He'd nail down the sympathy vote...San Francisco, for sure.

It would be interesting to be able to tally up the 'tax' on all you bought last year and compare it to what you pay in income tax.
They said 'necessities' would not be taxed. Neat if that covered medications, LOL! [I'm not on any]
Our Texas 'tax free' back to school shopping days are this coming weedend. Doesn't cover 'backpacks' and every kid wants a new backpac for school. I don't even know if it covers school supplies, but it does cover clothes.
(In typical delusional state.)
Would I like to be a dog? Yes. Woof! Woof!
