I can applaud her attitude with the press but not her lie.

For 2 years the far left radicals that comprise the core of the Democrat Party have told every lie imaginable about the President. When the President tells the truth about John Kerry's record, it's somehow uncivil and un-American.

Heinz Kerry Tells Reporter to 'Shove It'

BOSTON — 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." http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2004/7/25/232943.shtml

Networks Pull Plug on Teresa's Speech

The three major broadcast networks have pulled the plug on tonight's Democratic convention speech by Teresa Heinz Kerry - just two days after she went off the deep end by telling a reporter to "shove it" as TV cameras rolled.

I don't think the networks are going to refuse coverage of his speech at the Republican Convention, hell, he might say it again.

I was watching Teresa's speech at the DNC, and my god, she was slow and monotone, and totally not with the program, or with the beat of the DNC. All the other politicians were happy and cheery even Ted Kennedy was jumping up and down, I mean the DNC is a big party or perhaps a theatre production, and then of course Teresa comes on, and totally brings down the emotion. She ended on a totally sour note, and then a big happy song had to come on, and save the crowd's ears from her terrible speech with absolutely no substance whatsoever. Teresa being a smart intelligent woman I really expected more feeling out of her. She didn't spend much time endorsing her husband, but only talked about her own views, which in my view, is not in touch with what we're really up against in the future. Teresa Heinz you make me...

So is John Kerry's but that's something they've been trying to keep under wraps. For instance, he is keen to involve the UN in every aspect of America's business and once said no American military forces should ever be deployed anywhere in the world unless they were under the direct control of UN commanders

I watched some of the speeches tonight and in truth, the audience reaction was a little flat. I could see the different constituency groups cheer a little when their personal hot buttons were pushed but the Democrat party is only unified in it's hatred of Bush. The different parts of the party do not share broad areas of agreement on most of the issues and are a collection of single issue groups.

As for her voice being slow and monotone; she speaks with an "accent" (speaks five different languages)and sometimes it's difficult to make out what she is saying, so I think speaking slowly was smart on her part.

I was very impressed by her, and think she will probably be one of our most popular first ladies, since Jacqueline Kennedy...
