They didnt mention the Tides Foundation. I thought Saint Theresa supported that heavily. They also didnt mention her support for lawyers for the terrorists.

A month after Teresa Heinz Kerry's first husband, John Heinz, the ketchup heir and U.S. senator, died in a plane crash in 1991, she took his place as head of the family philanthropies....

Maybe someone can help me here: How did THK -- an "outsider"-- become head of the Heinz family fortune? Did John Heinz have no surviving blood relations? You know, no children, brother(s),sister(s), aunt(s), uncle(s) or cousin(s)? Why I ask is that most families bend over backwards to keep the family fortune,whatever its size,in the family. Surely John Heinz left a will; was it ever challenged?

.....Teresa Heinz Kerry, 65 years old.....

You know, after reading about her recent outbursts as reported by Drudge, I have a gut feeling that Teresa Heinz wants Kerry to lose this election.

Think about it.

Teresa Heinz now wears the pants in her family and has $550 million to play with during her remaining time in this life.

If Kerry becomes President, she will give up her privacy, live in the White House fish bowl where the press and public will scrutinize every $10 million Italian villa she buys and her younger gigolo will suddenly have more power than she has.

Assuming a second term, she will be trapped in that lifestyle until she is 74.

Teresa Heinz needs Kerry to become President like she needs a venereal disease.

I predict more acting out by Teresa as the November elections get closer.

As Mrs. Heinz Kerry sees it, grant making should be held to the same standards as venture capital investments. "You're going to win some, and you're going to lose some," she says, "so you better have the best mechanisms in place to be accountable.

What's wrong with this? If only our politicians were as stingy with our tax dollars imagine how much better off we would be.

"At the program's peak, in May 2000, $34 million had been spent, including more than $10 million in Heinz money, and the centers were serving just 680 kids"

Ouch! Even the french looking Kerry might have trouble wasting that kind of money for so little gain!

Sounds about right for pubic edumakayshen.

There were no comparable models to follow, and success depended on state money coming through. It didn't. Welfare reform had started in the meantime, sending mothers of the targeted kids into the work force.

So they spent $34 million or $50,000 per kid and the program flopped because taxpayers weren't gouged more and welfare mothers had to go to work? Good grief.

"Tah ray za" is a good example of someone who has no real stake in the future of this country other than her inherited wealth. These airplane "accidents" like the one that took Ron Brown to his reward seems to be what happened to her first mate. Otherwise, why would the switch to the Dimocrat laugh-in have been so easy.

We don't need first lady who is against America. I believe Ms. Kerry is.
