Teresa kicks ass with Freeper heckler
Crowd cheers after Heinz Kerry rebuts heckler

Teresa Heinz Kerry delivered for her supporters when she talked back to a heckler who implied her husband's a flip-flopper.

During a question and answer session, a young man demanded to know why Kerry voted to give Bush authority to attack Iraq but voted against an $87 billion appropriation bill to support the war effort there.

"Is that the kind of thing he would do as president?," the man asked.

Heinz Kerry sharply asked the man whether he had read the legislation that was voted on.

When he said no, she told him that Kerry had supported $60 billion in military appropriations for Iraq, but would not vote for the full $87 billion because he considered it a "blank check." Kerry was one of 11 Democrats to vote against the bill.

"And we knew they'd already given Haliburton millions in no-bid contracts," she snapped, referring to the company formerly led by Vice President Dick Cheney.

2. It's good..
...to see someone smart enough to know how to defend Kerry. The problem is you have all these morons on the idiot box talking about the wrong things.

5. This is why November 2nd matters. Remember the dead soliders mother
Look how Kerry's wife handled the heckler and compare it to how Laura Bush had a mother of a dead solider arrested because all she did was ask why her son was killed. This is why November 2nd matters. This is why We must have Kerry be in the White House. We don't just hate Bush and we aren't doing this because we are angry. We are doing this because we believe in President Kerry and First Lady Teresa Heinz Kerry.
