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...
It's damn high time to set up a House Un-Pennsylvanian Activities Committee.
Thanks for the report.
HUPAC?
Forget whether it's right or wrong, let's be honest--Tereza is just WEIRD.
If you start denying what you said 2 minutes after you say it, the press, clods and non-clods alike, are not going to treat you with much respect.
Are they going to start publishing a Chicago edition soon? How come I never heard of this newspaper?
ahhhh, I'm melting..... melting....what a world....what a world...
This could be a fun fall after all........
I imagine Tereysa in Nantucket screaming "cant we get some gaawwwddddammn mexicans who know how to trim my laaawwwnnnnn."
I suspect she could beat Hillary in a Bitch vs. Bitch fight.
Oh my! When I was a kid and got into mischief my mom would give me "the look".
Scared the beejeebers outta me (and yes, I deserved it).
I'm sure glad I was not Mrs. Ketchup's kid. That look could inspire nightmares for a lifetime and beyond!
Terayza sounded like she was drunk or on drugs during her Chris Matthews interview. This is too funny. This babe really has some problems.
Check this out!
AP has it...

BOSTON (AP) -- Teresa Heinz Kerry urged her home-state delegates to the Democratic National Convention to restore a more civil tone to American politics, then minutes later told a newspaperman to "shove it."
"We need to turn back some of the creeping, un-Pennsylvanian and sometimes un-American traits that are coming into some of our politics," the wife of Sen. John Kerry told her fellow Pennsylvanians on Sunday night at a Massachusetts Statehouse reception.

I was telling my husband, this woman, who has millions, can't get a decent haircut, wear makeup or wear clothing that is flattering. I don't mean to be mean, but she looks like a slob!
A letter to Americans who might believe the "Bush Bashers" |
I said it before I never said it.
Where the heck does this fit into the article? Sounds like the AP is trying to help her out.
As if you don't have enough material already for a song!!!
