Teresa Heinz Kerry says opposition to Bush helps in fundraising

[JI7]

<NEW YORK (AP) — Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, says "the other guy" — President Bush — may be her husband's biggest fund-raiser.

"I think in a sense he's our biggest fund-raiser," she said, implying that opposition to Bush has helped draw contributions.

"One of the saddest things about this administration is its cynical attempt to equate patriotism with singing in the president's amen chorus," she said. "The Americans I have met are tired of being told it is unpatriotic to question this president and his administration's policies."

Heinz Kerry, who has been blunt in her public comments, also touched on her reputation for being outspoken.

"I have been known to speak my mind and express my opinions — maybe you've heard that," she said. "My hope is that at the end of this campaign or one day soon, women who have earned the right to their opinions won't be called opinionated.">

1. She will be a wonderful first lady

"My hope is that at the end of this campaign or one day soon, women who have earned the right to their opinions won't be called opinionated."

Oh to be rid of the kool aid drinking Laura Bush. It can't happen soon enough.

3. No kidding, I wouldn't want my daughters idolizing any Bush

hag. I would never call the Bush women, ladies, they are old obsequious old bags with no minds of their own. I find them obscene and embarrassing to American women in general.

2. Women who have earned the right to their opinions won't be called

opinionated? I call my wife "opinionated" when I want to get a rise out of her! That word sets her off!

4. One of the most horrid thoughts I have, is the neo-con agenda...

to silence women.

No opinions.
No thoughts.
No independence.
No speech.
No equality.
No vote.

Nothing but being "permitted" to bring new neo-cons into the world.

Knuckle-dragging Neanderthals, criminals against humanity, thugs; I am so disgusted by these people, it takes great pains to suppress the rage.

It makes me wonder how they forget they had a mother, someone who helped bring them into this world, and ensure that they would have a chance at making this world a better place...yet they would enslave their own mothers.

Sad, so very, very sad.....I don't even consider these creatures human...:(
