Not Ready for Prime Time (cont.)

By The MinuteMan

Theresa Heinz Kerry jumps back into our <font color=blue>"Not Ready for Prime Time"<font color=black> comedy with her latest. Matt Drudge blared it, but the AP has more details:
<font color=blue>
Teresa Heinz Kerry urged her home-state delegates to the Democratic National Convention to restore a more civil tone to American politics, then minutes later told a newspaperman to <font color=red>"shove it."

"We need to turn back some of the creeping, un-Pennsylvanian and sometimes un-American traits that are coming into some of our politics," <font color=blue>the wife of Sen. John Kerry told her fellow Pennsylvanians on Sunday night at a Massachusetts Statehouse reception.

Minutes later, Colin McNickle, the editorial page editor of the conservative Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, questioned her on what she meant by the term <font color=red>"un-American,"<font color=blue> according to a tape of the encounter recorded by Pittsburgh television station WTAE.

Heinz Kerry said, <font color=red>"I didn't say that"<font color=blue> several times to McNickle. She then turned to confer with Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell and others. When she faced McNickle again a short time later, he continued to question her, and she replied, <font color=red>"You said something I didn't say. Now shove it." <font color=black>

The un-American tone? Has Ms. Heinz Kerry been naturalized, or is this a self-referential nod to her <font color=blue>"Asses of Evil"<font color=black> days?
