Kennedy office dismisses Teresa comments as "water under the bridge"
(You Can't Make This ***** Up)! LIBERALS HATE AMERICA!
http://news.bostonherald.com/dncConvention/view.bg?articleid=37308
Teresa Heinz Kerry, years before becoming a Democrat, railed against
the party's ``putrid'' politics, said she didn't trust Sen. Edward M.
Kennedy and angrily called the liberal lion a ``perfect *****.''
In comments published in a little-known 1975 book about political
wives called ``The Power Lovers: An Intimate Look at Politicians and
Their Marriages,'' Heinz Kerry lashed out at the senator she'll share
the primetime convention stage with tonight.
``I know some couples who stay together only for politics,'' Heinz
Kerry said at the time. ``If Ted Kennedy holds on to that marriage (to
ex-wife Joan) just for the Catholic vote, as some people say he does,
then I think he's a perfect *****.''
Heinz Kerry, then married to Republican Sen. H. John Heinz III of
Pennsylvania, said she ``didn't trust'' President Richard M. Nixon but
added, ``Ted Kennedy I don't trust either.''
The combustible and ever-quotable Heinz Kerry said of Democrats, ``The
Democratic machine in this country is putrid.'' Excerpts of the
comments appeared in The Boston Herald American in January 1976.
Coming a day after Heinz Kerry was caught on camera telling a reporter
to ``shove it'' when the reporter questioned her on statements made in
a Boston speech, the remarks could undercut Democrats' ability to
showcase a positive message at the convention.
Kennedy's office dismissed the comments as water under the bridge and
said the two get along famously now _ regardless of what Heinz Kerry
has said in the past.
