That Kerry broad, she’s all class.

Teresa Heinz Kerry told a newspaper she doesn’t know if Laura Bush has ever had “a real job.” She apologized Wednesday for having forgotten about the first lady’s 10-year stint as a schoolteacher and librarian.

In an interview published Wednesday, USA Today asked the wife of Democratic candidate John Kerry if she would be different from Laura Bush as a first lady.

“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,” Heinz Kerry said. “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.”

Heinz Kerry said she sees her age as a benefit—she is 66 and Bush 57. “I’m older, and my validation of what I do 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,” she said.

Laura Bush worked in public schools in Texas from 1968 to 1977, the year she married George W. Bush.

The article doesn’t mention THK’s career achievements.  I guess marrying billionaires isn’t much of a career.  Seriously, though, what the hell has she ever done to distinguish herself apart from marrying well?

Never let it be said that the French don’t have the courage and integrity to stand up and fight Islamic extremists.

Two Muslim girls who refused to remove their head scarves in class have been expelled from school, and two more risked the same fate Wednesday as officials began punishing those who defy a new French law banning conspicuous religious symbols in public schools.

Two girls, ages 12 and 13, were expelled from a school in the eastern city of Mulhouse on Tuesday night - the first expulsions under the new law, the Education Ministry said.

France.  Doing its part to rid the world of Islamic terrorism.

And the 2004 Mother of the Year Award goes to…

A trio of Kennedy teenagers recounted yesterday how a friend’s mother offered them alcohol and cigarettes before she took them up to her bedroom to watch a pornographic videotape and show them sex toys.

The events reportedly occurred on Dec. 31, 2002, during a New Year’s Eve party at the home of Lisa Plutto, when most of the teenagers were 12, according to testimony yesterday during a preliminary hearing.

Plutto told the youths afterward not to discuss the incident with anyone, telling them, “You’ll get in trouble and so will I,” according to an affidavit of probable cause filed in the case. ...

There were about 13 boys and girls at the New Year’s Eve party, including Plutto’s then-12-year-old daughter, Anna, the teenagers testified. As soon as they arrived, Plutto told the children that alcohol was in the garage and beer was in a cooler near where she sat at a computer.

“[Plutto] would just say, ‘There it is, go get it,’” the first witness, a 14-year-old girl, testified.

All of the teens who testified said they drank either beer, a mixed drink or both during the party. The 14-year-old boy testified he drank six or seven cans of beer.

At some point during the evening, Plutto invited about half the young people at the party up to her bedroom and told them to sit on her bed. Plutto opened a drawer with sex toys and chocolate candy shaped like penises on sticks, the teenagers testified.

Plutto told the young people the chocolate was her “favorite,” according to the affidavit.

As the children sat on the bed, Plutto put in a pornographic videotape reportedly called “Way Past Missionary Style.” The teenagers testified Plutto noted different parts of the male and female anatomy while the video was playing and asked them to repeat the words after her.

After five or 10 minutes, Plutto stopped the tape and told the children they had to go downstairs and not mention the videotape and hide their alcohol because her husband was home.

Charming.

I’ve been saying for the better part of three years now that Osama bin Laden is dead.  Today the Belgravia Dispatch made the case for that position.

Trust me, he’s deader than Sean Young’s career.

Praise be to Allah most merciful.

Kidnappers have seized the British-Iraqi head of an international charity in Baghdad and later she was shown sitting anxiously and alone in a video broadcast by an Arabic television station.

Margaret Hassan, who has dual nationality, is married to an Iraqi and has lived in Iraq for about 30 years, was abducted at 7:30 a.m. (5:30 a.m. British time) on Tuesday, said a spokeswoman for Care International in London.

The kidnapping occurred two weeks after militants in Iraq beheaded British engineer Kenneth Bigley and was part of a guerrilla campaign of hostage-taking and bombings that has kept the country in bloody chaos since last year’s U.S.-led invasion.

Nothing identifies you more as a Minuteman or Revolutionary than kidnapping the head of an international charity organization.

My God, I just looked out the window and it’s wetter than a 14 year old girl at a Justin Timberlake concert.  You don’t see too many flash flood warnings down here in the Southern Left Coast.

I don’t know if this is good news or bad.

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Friday he believes God has told him President Bush will be re-elected in a “blowout” in November.

“I think George Bush is going to win in a walk,” Robertson said on his “700 Club” program on the Virginia Beach-based Christian Broadcasting Network, which he founded. “I really believe I’m hearing from the Lord it’s going to be like a blowout election in 2004. It’s shaping up that way.”

Let us not forget, gentle reader, that “The Lord” told that jackoff that he should run for president a few years back, and, well, well all know how well that worked out, don’t we?

The president picked up a key endorsement today.

The head of Iran’s security council said Tuesday that the re-election of President Bush was in Tehran’s best interests, despite the administration’s axis of evil label, accusations that Iran harbors al-Qaida terrorists and threats of sanctions over the country’s nuclear ambitions.

You can place this endorsement right up there with Republicans for Sharpton.  It’s obvious that the Iranians would much rather face an internationalist, gutless pussy like Kerry.  Vote accordingly.

For those of you who live out here on the Left Coast:  Why the hell am I seeing nightly commercials for Barbara Boxer, but not one commercial yet for Bill Jones?  Is the CA GOP waiting until the last minute to unleash him on the public?  I don’t get it.

From Yahoo:

How appropriate is that?

I saw this for the first time this morning, and since then about ten people have sent me the link.  I think this contains a powerful message, which will resonate with that all-important soccer mom demographic.  See for yourself.

It looks like Spain is reaping the benefits of kowtowing to the demands of Islamist terrorists.

A radical Muslim cell broken up by Spanish police had been plotting to bomb the National Court, a hub of Spain’s investigations of Islamic terrorism, the interior minister said Tuesday. ...

even suspects were arrested on Monday in Madrid and southern Spain, and one more Tuesday in the northern city of Pamplona. Most are Algerian, and some had contacts with militants elsewhere in Europe, the United States and Australia.

“This was an operation against radical Muslims. They were planning to commit terrorist attacks,” Interior Minister Jose Antonio Alonso told reporters at Parliament.

“They were talking about attacking the National Court, a judicial body. But the police do not rule out any other kind of possibility,” Alonso said, adding that no explosives were found during the arrests.

Good thing they pulled out of Iraq, huh?  Because giving in to the Islamofascists guarantees that you won’t be attacked again, right?

Oh yeah, this is the type of regime that should have nuclear weapons.

The fundamentalism regime of Iran is planning to stone a 13-year-old girl, Jila, in the city of Marivan in coming days. Jila was raped and impregnated by her brother and Iran’s clerical judge has sentenced her to death by stoning. According to the Iranian regime’s penal code, stoning is the punishment for those who commit adultery. Jila did not commit adultery; rather she is a victim of rape.

Stoning in Iran is carried out as “the condemned are wrapped head to foot in white shrouds and buried up to their waists. “ The misogynous regime of Tehran even details the difference between the stoning of men vs. women. “The female condemned are buried up to their neck to prevent their escape.” Furthermore, “the stones are specifically chosen so they are large enough to cause pain, but not so large as to kill the condemned immediately. They are guaranteed a slow, torturous death. Sometimes their children are forced to watch.” No other government in the world practices stoning as the Iranian regime.

Ah yes, the Religion of Peace™.  If they’re willing to stone a 13 year old girl to death for being raped, just what do you think they’d do with a nuclear weapon and, say, Israel?

John Kerry: war hero, former prosecutor, and friend to the working man.

Last summer, John F. Kerry refused to cross a police picket line and address the US Conference of Mayors meeting in Boston. Last night he rode in a motorcade that crossed two Florida police picket lines en route to a get-out-the-vote rally in vote-rich Orlando. . . . On June 26, the day before he had been scheduled to address the mayors’ conference, Kerry told the Globe: ‘’I don’t cross picket lines. I never have.”

And he won’t raise your taxes, either.

Another terrorist has come out in support of Kerry.

Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat is hoping John Kerry wins the presidential election in November, several Palestinian leaders told WorldNetDaily.

Arafat deputy and chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat told WND in an exclusive interview that while “we do not involve ourselves in internal American politics,” at the same time “our region has been sliding deeper and deeper into chaos because of certain policies over the past few years, and this needs to change.”

While he would not directly endorse Kerry, it was clear Erekat was implying the PA wants a change in White House leadership: “If things continue the way they are, if certain policies toward our region are maintained in the years to come, there is going to be a lot of violence on both sides.”

A prominent Arafat aide who asked that his name be withheld spoke to WorldNetDaily from Arafat’s battered Ramallah compound.

“The president [Arafat] is frustrated with Bush’s policies,” he said. “The president [Arafat] thinks Kerry will be much better for the Palestinian cause and for the establishment of a Palestinian state.”

Translation: Kerry is weak on terrorism, and every terrorist in the world knows it.
