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.
Developing...
Ms. Terroraza in the WHITE HOUSE?
Lord, please spare us....
Semper Fi
Teresa Heinz Kerry, you're no Laura Bush!
Well, yeah, but don't you get a kick out of the fact that she did it right after calling for incivility un-American and un-Pennslyvanian?
I can hear the dems spinning already.
"At least she didn't use the F word in the U.S. Senate. She's under a lot of stress. Now shove it, yourself."
lol. The Pickle-Pinching Princess. From Pittsburgh.
Where's her right hand?
Didn't she mean it as part of the political process? The press deserves it. I also liked it when Jenna stuck her tongue out at them.
oops....scratch the "for" and it makes more sense.
Wow. Mrs. Kerry flip flops even quicker than her hubby.
"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."
Wow...She prays. Let's see, "Shove it"...nope haven't heard that one in church lately. What a nice old rich lady.
Not to mention "unwound"...
Would that be a model of a marijuana delivery device?
This from a woman who, with her least liked husband, threw a grand fundraising party at her mansion in Cape Cod....and locked all the bathrooms and put up potra potties in the yard for her guests.
This is HUGE, they are already broadcasting her whole statement and the entire incident on TV here in NH.
Tereeeayyyzzzaaaa in her remarks did in fact make the statement regarding "UNAMERICAN" remarks. After she was done, Pittsburgh Tribune Review reporter, Colin McNickle simply and respectfully asked her "what did you mean by UNAMERICAN?" Her answer: "I DID NOT SAY THAT! WHY ARE YOU PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH?" Mr. McNickle said in response something to the effect "I heard you say it ("UNAMERICAN remarks"). TEREeeeaaaaayyyzzzaaa then reiterated "I DID NOT SAY THAT". She then left, time went by and then ALL ON HER OWN SHE ANGRILLY APPROACHED Colin McNickle and asked in a very demeaning tone '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!'
SHE HAS BEEN CAUGHT IN A LIE, DEMEANING A REPORTER AFTER GIVING A SPEACH DECRYING THE NASTINESS OF THE POLITICAL PROCESS! This is NOT going to go away :o)
