TERESA TELLS REPORTER TO 'SHOVE IT'

Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of Democratic nominee John Kerry, told a reporter to 'shove it' on Sunday evening -- immediately after giving a speech calling for a more civil tone in politics.

Speaking to the Pennsylvanian delegation at the statehouse in Boston, Heinz Kerry delivered an impassioned plea against hate politics:

"We need to turn back some of the creeping, un-Pennsylvanian and sometimes un-American traits that are coming into some of our politics."

"I remember a time when people in political parties in Pennsylvania talked to one another and actually got things done. We have to go back to those days when we can do things properly, for the people need it."

"My prayers for you, for me, for the country, for the world, are that we keep this at a high level, with dignity, with respect and with a great idealism and courage that took our forefathers to build this great nation."

According to multiple sources who attended the event, Heinz Kerry upon finishing the speech pushed her way through the Secret Service to get to Pittsburgh Tribune Review reporter, Colin McNickle. Upon getting to Mcnickle, Heinz Kerry asks, 'Are you from the Tribune Review' Mcnickle says, 'Yes, I am.'

At this point and in an irritated fashion Heinz Kerry says, 'Of course, understandable. You said something I didnt say. Now Shove it!'

Tape of the incident is being edited to air on Pittsburgh's WTAE-TV, and, according to a media source, ABC NEWS is set to run with it thereafter.

A witness of the incident said reporters were "stunned" by Heinz Kerry's outburst, especially in light of the speech she had just given.

That's what I thought at first - til I saw the model sitting next to him.

LOL - "...model sitting next to him."

It would make a great campaign commercial. For our side. :-)

Just as soon as Kerry threw that girly-man pitch my first thought was....split screen, on the left, of course, Kerry throwing the ball whimpy man. On the right, Bush throwing his perfect strike, from the mound and right over the plate.

Yeah, it's mean. But the Dems would do it in a heartbeat were the tables turned.

I can hardly blame someone for getting testy with the clods in the press, even if it is her.

But only if the clods in the press are from a "right-wing rag" (i.e, Conservative newspaper) per her spokesperson afterwards. I'd say the spokesperson is as big an idiot as Tee-RAY-SAH!

Wow! How the heck can this woman get up there, say something, then two minutes later claim "I never said that, you put words into my mouth"???

I swear, my theory that she's been doped up throughout much of this campaign, to keep her from putting her foot in her mouth, gains more and more credence every day...

Hey John? You better up her dosage again!

Rush mentioning what we suspected. The military hero was supposed to throw out the first ball. He was pre-empted by Ketchupboy.

After his short stint at the side of Kerry he was moved to the last row in the stadium.

Yes, listening to Rush too. BTW, did anybody else see on one of these Kerry at the Game threads the NY times quoted from its' FRiday paper where it SAYS that Kerry was scheduled to go to the game??

IOW there was NO last minute change of plans. That's all a fabrication according to Fridays Slimes. Which I didn't post to so of course can't find the post again.

  1. She's no more American than "Pennsylvanian" (AS a Pennsylvanian, I would like her to define what constitutes "un-Pennsylvanian)
  2. She made a passionate speech demanding Democrats be civil, yet her idea of "civiliaty" is to tell people to "shove it"
  3. Her aid's excuse for Teresa's lack of "civility" is to claim a "right wing rag" caused Teresa "frustration" so that's somehow different than...uh...being uncivil.
  4. So, the "new tone" of the Party of Clinton is demanding people shove it?? The jokes write themselves.

We can see how this new tone spins: exactly like the alleged old tone. WE'RE mean, THEY'RE "frustrated"

YAWN

I am no fan of the press...but in this case she was in the wrong - she denied having said something that she DID say. Pretty silly thing to fly off the handle about.

African Terayza said "OUR forefathers...."

She's phony as the proverbial $3 bill.

And it doesn't take exceptional discernment for a leftist to realize that when she starts throwing around words like that, words like "un-American," conservatives are going to home in on that. A leftist calling others "un-American" is like Porky Pig telling Stephen Hawkings that he talks funny. People like TerAYzah are the epitome of un-Americanism and McNickle, like any conservative, was not going to let her slide by on this.

As I said before, her best option was to deflect his question, eg. "Well, by 'un-American,' I meant 'not characteristic of Americans,'" which would essentially have been deflection by redundancy. That would have saved her, even if McNickle's follow-up had been, "So which Americans are doing this Un-American activity?" She could have simply said, "I don't think it's constructive to get into personalities here," and just walked away.

But by responding the way she did, she just compounded her embarassment while presenting us all with the absurd spectacle of a leftist accusing others of un-American activities.
