September 25, 200422 yr Not like it matters either way but I'd take Laura Bush shes a lot more classy than Heinz.
September 25, 200422 yr Heinz, not afraid to speak her mind, and speak up/out against something she feels is wrong.
September 26, 200422 yr I'll take intelligence, culture, and some personality over looks and stateliness (not sure if that's a word).
September 27, 200422 yr Heinz, not afraid to speak her mind, and speak up/out against something she feels is wrong. 571804[/snapback] ditto- and a smart business woman.
September 27, 200422 yr I prefer an American sounding first Lady.. LAURA! 572000[/snapback] Ok if thats your logic Here I go: Laura: Fair Enough Heinz: Doesn't get much better than when your name is the ketchup mogul of the world. Kerry: Thats American, who the hell wants the name "Bush" 2/3 go to Teresa. She Wins,
September 27, 200422 yr I like them both. Laura is the motherly, quite and simple type. Teresa is the smart, cultured and interesting type. I chose Teresa because she will do more to help understand different cultures than Laura. When your husband is the President of the United States, it comes in handy to speak 5 different languages. :cool
September 27, 200422 yr 12 years ago this would of been an irrelevant question, but even since that uber-bitch Hillary decided that votes for her husband were really votes for her this is now an issue. The purpose of the FC is to handle some domestic issues and act as the wife of the head of state, not much else. I really wouldn't care, but Heinz scares me a bit. As we learned with Hillary, the first lady can cause political harm to her husband, the administration and the nation. With that in mind I shudder at the thought of Heinz opening up her fat yap without thinking and going off on someone. You'd think for all the cash she gold-digged into she's be a little more refined and cognizant of the ramnifications of her behavior. But, she doesn't.
September 27, 200422 yr how anyone can say a woman with a master in library science is not smart is beyond me. i would say they are both very smart, but while mrs. kerry was travelling around looking for ways to spend money not to get taxed on it, mrs. bush actually had a job. if my woman would come out in public to criticize me on my job or disagree with me it would be reason enough for divorce. disagreements in views should be dealt with at home, in private, as a family, once we are out in public we're 1 and have to stick together. if i'm the one elected to the position, i do the talking, u smile for the cameras and vice versa if you were the one elected to that position.

"your" woman is not yours. Feel lucky if some girl decides to take you some day. We are not obligated to any man's views, ideals or purposes. The time in which wives were supposed to stay quiet while their husbands screwed around and did whatever is long gone. Get over it. Did you know that Laura Bush was a Democrat and disagrees with President Bush on the abortion issue? I bet you didn't know that did you? That is the major difference between Laura and Teresa. Teresa has not given up her ideals to 'please' anybody and Laura did.
September 28, 200422 yr Heinz-Kerry. I would rather have a strong first lady than one that stays in the background.

September 28, 200422 yr i wouldn't want a first lady that calls people who don't agree with her husband are crazy or whatever it was she said. it also doesn't help having a first lady thay says "shove it" to all the world leaders that come to the white house.

As far as I can remember, Hilary was an asset to Bill. 574725[/snapback] How'd that little idea about federalized healthcare work out? Remember, the one that Hillary was going to take the lead on as first lady? Let's see, let's plan on creating the largest bureaucratic entity ever. Who should we put in charge? Hmmmm, how about someone that no one voted for and who had absolutely no experience at the time in healthcare, the legislative process, public administration or anything else aside from being the first lady? One of the biggest contributing factors as to why the federal government hasn't come within 10000 feet of regulating healthcare is because of the stigma Hlllary attached to it with her complete trainwreck in the early 1990's.

That is the major difference between Laura and Teresa. Teresa has not given up her ideals to 'please' anybody and Laura did. 574729[/snapback] First, I wouldn't say that because Laura disagrees with her husband on the abortion issue that she has "given up her ideals". Just as I wouldn't say that Dick Cheney has "given up his ideals" by thinking there should be gay rights and running with Bush. Secondly, wasn't Teresa a registered Republican up until 2001?
September 28, 200422 yr Heinz Kerry was a registered Republican for most of her voting career, and her first husband, Senator Heinz, ran as a Republican. In January of 2003, she changed her registration to the Democratic Party
September 30, 200422 yr How'd that little idea about federalized healthcare work out? Remember, the one that Hillary was going to take the lead on as first lady? That didn't exactly do any damage to Bill. Remember, he still got elected, and federalized healthcare was one of his issues that he ran on. Let's see, let's plan on creating the largest bureaucratic entity ever. Who should we put in charge? Hmmmm, how about someone that no one voted for and who had absolutely no experience at the time in healthcare, the legislative process, public administration or anything else aside from being the first lady? That's no different than any of the other big Washington bureaucracies. The people don't vote for the heads of the SEC, IRS, or INS, and there's plenty of questionable appointments to many of the heads of these big departments. What exactly did Michael Powell do that made him qualified to run the FCC? One of the biggest contributing factors as to why the federal government hasn't come within 10000 feet of regulating healthcare is because of the stigma Hlllary attached to it with her complete trainwreck in the early 1990's. Thanks to the fact that Bill trashed it the second it met with any resistance. I think the lack of regulation of healthcare has more to do with insurance company contributions to politicians and ignorant Republican voters who can't seem to understand that it would make their healthcare costs go down significantly.
September 30, 200422 yr Can I vote for none of the above? Or how about Aurora Snow? I can tell you there wouldn't be any sort of sex scandal, with her as first lady. She'll give the pres. all he can handle and then some.

In January of 2003, she changed her registration to the Democratic Party 575285[/snapback] :cool Yep. She changed her registration for two reasons: 1. She hated the way Republicans treated Max Cleland in that awful campaign where they painted him as "unpatriotic" and friend of terrorists. 2. She needed to be a Democrat to vote for her husband in the primaries :thumbup
