| Press Virtually Ignores Yet Another Theresa Heinz Kerry Meltdown |
| 09.20.04 (9:57 am) |
In her latest bout of verbal "honesty" Theresa Heinz Kerry lashed out at her critics for an interview with a Pittsburgh Television station, calling them "scumbags."
Strangely enough our ever present watchdogs in the mainstream media seemed to feel that this, like so many of her other outbursts, were unworthy of reporting.
This and a few of her more interesting statements came to light in an article written by Judith Thurman, of New Yorker magazine:
The New Yorker's Judith Thurman chronicled some of Heinz Kerry's more well-known verbal gaffes before noting the videotaped vulgarity:
"She dismissed voters skeptical of her husband’s health-care proposals as 'idiots,' and, in a television interview with a Pittsburgh anchorwoman, employed the word 'scumbags' to describe some of her detractors," Thurman said.
"There are these bizarre moments that make you shudder," one Kerry adviser told Thurman. "Like calling herself African-American to black audiences."
In an effort to put Heinz Kerry's vulgar verbiage in context, The New Yorker writer explained, "I doubt that she knows the literal meaning of 'scumbag,' but perhaps, after forty years in America, nearly thirty of them as a political wife, observing how the flaws and contradictions of a personality as complex as hers are melted down for ammunition by the other side, she should have learned it."
She doesn't know the literal meaning of the word "scumbag"? Lol.. ok, I've heard some pretty amazing statements made by the liberal media apologists over the years, but this one is so over the top it defies description. If the woman is smart enough to master at least two languages then you can't tell me she doesn't know the meaning of a slang term like scumbag, any more than she doesn't know the meaning of the word kaffir (my apologies to those of you from South Africa or those who are familiar with the term, I use it only to illustrate a point). That is simply ridiculous. You don't bandy about terms like that unless your certain of their meaning, especially not in a public form, and certainly not if you have one iota of common sense.
Considering the absolute lambasting that Dan Quayle recieved for his verbal gaffes I find it rather disingenious of the national media to bury these stories of Theresa Heinz Kerry's verbal outbursts.

You little people are such fools. That is why you refuse to bow when I speak. You will get yours, you idiots. John & I know what is best for you peasants even though you do not. We long so for the good days, the European days of elegance when royalty was respected. Ants!!! Insects!!! Middle class riff-raff. You make fun of us because we do not pay taxes on my $3.2 billion in assets. You make fun of us because we pay the bare minimum of 0.983% in taxes on my $80M/yr income while I support a 30% tax on any family earning over $100,000. You ignorant scum. I suport the outsourcing of all the Heinz manufacturing plants and their thousands of jobs so that my income will grow even more while my husband tells you about all the bad outsourcing plotted by evil US corporations. Worship me and my waned beauty or I'll get you my pretty, and your little dog too!
