Twenty years ago, Heinz Kerry says she became pregnant, and, upon learning she was carrying a fetus that would be born severely deformed, made an appointment to end the pregnancy," "She miscarried before the day arrived," the magazine says, in a story headlined "Teresa Unplugged."

Twenty years ago, Heinz Kerry says she became pregnant, and, upon learning she was carrying a fetus child that would be born severely deformed, made an appointment to end the pregnancy kill the baby," "She was relieved when she miscarried before the day arrived," the magazine says, in a story headlined "Teresa Unplugged."

I wouldn't either. In fact, I have a friend this happened to and she was only 32.

[O Neill]

I don't think this will story will do John Kerry any good.

It may not do Heinz Ketchup any good, either...

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

I was wondering what would be a horrible deformity for someone like Ms. Heinz,

It was so horribly deformed that she miscarried. Did you read the entire article?

[ShandaLear]

It's obvious to me they are pulling an Algore here. They will use this tragedy like Algore used his sister's cancer.

I wonder if she made this up just to attract pro-abortion voters. It is so rare to "just get" pregnant at 45 years of age. That's why fertility clinics are filled with women of this age, and younger.

When my husband and I decided to start a family, I was 26. It took 3 months to get pregnant. When we decided that it was time for another child, I was 30. It took one and one half years to get pregnant. We had already decided that we might not be able to conceive again. At 45, forget it!

By the way. Having kids was a mutual decision. We were in a stable marriage. We had bought our home, and we were ready. Only then did we get pregnant. I wish more women respected this CHOICE, over the "choice" of killing their own young.

[atomicpossum]

Will this make any difference to who votes for whom?

[kennedy]

Heinz Kerry is a Roman Catholic who says she attends church regularly.

So can I call myself a vegetarian if I eat steak but go to PETA meetings afterwards?

[smonk]

I think this will do carrie a lot of good with militant
feminists and fuzzy-headed liberals. the problem for him
is that he already HAS all of them in his corner.

[smonk]

you don't expect that to be their "final answer", do you?

it has at LEAST four more versions before we get something
that resembles what actually happened.

[ShandaLear]

"I wonder if she made this up just to attract pro-abortion voters. It is so rare to "just get" pregnant at 45 years of age. That's why fertility clinics are filled with women of this age, and younger."

Of course! Can't you here it now? George W. Bush would have denied Teresa her choice. It's disgusting.

[ShandaLear]

HEAR not here! I hate when I do that.

[smonk]

LOL !

spellchecker can only do so much. happens to me, too.

[TeleStraightShooter]

Sailent point carried.

The retorical questions is:Why was she relieved when she miscarried before the day arrived?

[giznort]

good point

[Ronaldus Magnus]

If real, this is big. Why didn't this come out in the primary? He has the nomination. They should be trying to claim the center of the political spectrum, yet they are still pushing to the extreme left.

[Argus]

I agree with you. The same thing happened to me and my wife at about the same age. The pregnancy was, to say the least, a surprise, and we were pretty excited, but it ended in miscarriage. The baby would have been severely deformed, and nature had the final say. I find it impossible to feel anything but compassion for anyone in a similar situation.

[Ohioan from Florida]

I wonder what the odds are that she really miscarried the day before she was planning to have her abortion. Quite coincidental. It's too bad she miscarried, but it would have been much worse if she had gone through with an abortion. Deformed babies aren't the worst thing in the world, and neither is motherhood at age 45. Too bad Mrs. Heinz Kerry didn't/doesn't realize that.

[blackdog]

The horrible deformity involved her inability for her butler to find infant size docksides and lacoste onesies.

Horrible deformities!

I'd love to see that medical record/amniocentisis/ultrasound file. Since she's made it a badge of honor, let's see the record?

[smonk]

the primary was designed to anoint someone as quickly and
cheaply as possible, with minimum damage inflicted during
the process. problems with that approach arose when dean
appeared poised to steal the party nomination.

after a quick look around, carrie was the least fatally
flawed candidate that wasn't a manifest whack job.

so they all crossed their fingers, held their noses, and
voted.
