What if we just send you cork?

If I could send a pen to the RNC, I don't see why not.

I think I'm the only one that likes her. She cracks me up. She's so above it all and doesn't give a fuck, just says what's on her mind.

Just a Reminder....



"We've been waiting since 1918 for the Boston Red Sox to win the World Series, and if I had a choice between the White House and the World Series this year, I'm going to take the White House. How's that?"

-- Sen. John Kerry, Taylor, MI, August 1, 2004

Is it a good idea to let her anywhere near the button?

I like her fine. I just don't want to read about anything she says for the next two weeks, because if I'm reading about it, chances are it's not helpful.

They are just using reverse psychology to get people to vote for Kerrey.
Is Bob running now? Did the DNC pull another Torricelli manueuver?

Occasionally, it's probably not helpful whenever she might say it.

For example, I really don't want to know what prompted this statement: Whatever it was, it can't be good.

  • PITTSBURGH, Oct. 20 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Teresa Heinz Kerry released the following statement today:


    "I had forgotten that Mrs. Bush had worked as a school teacher and librarian, and there couldn't be a more important job than teaching our children. As someone who has been both a full time mom and full time in workforce, I know we all have valuable experiences that shape who we are. I appreciate and honor Mrs. Bush's service to the country as First Lady, and am sincerely sorry I had not remembered her important work in the past."

Oddly enough, the same thing that prompted my post. The original statement wasn't so bad in context, but you weren't going to hear the context.

What was the context when she yelled Shove It? Or accused her staff member of sabotaging her cookie recipe?

The context was that of a USA Today article

Quote:
: You'd be different from Laura Bush?

A: Well, you know, I don't know Laura Bush. But she seems to be calm, and she has a sparkle in her eye, which is good. But I don't know that she's ever had a real job — I mean, since she's been grown up. So her experience and her validation comes from important things, but different things. And I'm older, and my validation of what I do and what I believe and my experience is a little bit bigger — because I'm older, and I've had different experiences. And it's not a criticism of her. It's just, you know, what life is about.
Begging the question, when was the last time Zsa Zsa had a real job?

There are quite a few stay at home moms in Ohio who read USA today. I think that quote will go over with them about as well as Kerrey's quote about Mary Cheney.

Not to get all scientific on you, but where do you think oil comes from?

Below the watertable, where it can't contaminate the water supply. If you dump it ON TOP of the ground, it can get in the water supply.
