PITTSBURGH -- Teresa Heinz Kerry called attacks on her husband's foreign policy views "Neanderthal" while meeting with current and former Republicans who said they plan to vote for Sen. John Kerry.

"The perpetration of certain myths that diplomacy and alliances are a sign of weakness is Neanderthal," Heinz Kerry said at the Kerry-Edwards presidential campaign headquarters in Pittsburgh. "I never heard of teaching a child to make enemies so they can get along in the playground."

Heinz Kerry spoke after listening to six people -- including business owners, a retired Air Force general and Pennsylvania mayors -- talk about their disillusionment with President George W. Bush.

One person in the group -- Susan Cosgrove, owner of a local communications business -- called herself "an angry Republican who feels my party has been hijacked and whose values have been trampled on."

Cosgrove is married to a Vietnam veteran who, like Kerry, protested the war when he got home. She chided Bush for not serving.

"They (Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney) are the kings of dodging and deferment, and they should not be the commanders in chief of this country," she said.
