#4 OOPS! Looks like someone told her she really stepped in it - she's issued an apology:

Teresa Heinz Kerry released the following statement today:

"I had forgotten that Mrs. Bush had worked as a school teacher and librarian, and there couldn't be a more important job than teaching our children. As someone who has been both a full time mom and full time in workforce, I know we all have valuable experiences that shape who we are. I appreciate and honor Mrs. Bush's service to the country as First Lady, and am sincerely sorry I had not remembered her important work in the past."

It won't matter much they are both die hard Republicans. But It does show what the elitists actually think, teachers are dumb (their unions support democrats.)

The statement makes perfect sense. It flows well, there is no evidence there that she is drunk. Do you have any other proof?

#26 No. Neither of us have evidence either way. But the 'she's drunk' proposition was made first. i simply asked for proof. I am asking for proof she was drunk, i have made no claims and therefore have nothing to prove.

#31 AmericanIdiot: Conjecture?

No. 8 white raisins soaked in gin per day. Her Heinzness says so. Not sure what the remedy is supposed to be for.

Try that for years and you would become a guaranteed fluffy bunny alcoholic.

Also, read her utterances over years and you would not be sure what planet she is on.

You see, thats fair enough. I'll happily accept that.

And when did I ever say she was drunk? Why are you putting words in my mouth?

Never directly. However i asked

It would be real nice if Mrs. H-K waited until she was sober before saying anything... What is that statement based on?

and you replied

The coherence and sobriety of Heinz' comment.

I would be interested to know what point you were making with that statement if you were not implying she was drunk?

#42 Not so fast, Idjit. Mucky is muck4doo. He said he was getting drunk (#35) and I told him to go easy on the raisins cause I don't want him picked up for DUI. And if you want to know how your letter to Clark County Ohio is going, check here.

And don't dodge the point of #38. We're keeping track.

I have not written a letter to Clark County. An exercise in pointlessness. I also don't have a subscription to that obscure Springfield publication.

I'm not the one saying she's sober, you are.

Ah! now where did i say that? As i said again and again i was simply asking you to prove she was drunk. But, if you say you were not saying she was drunk then neither of us is questioning her sobriety or lack of it. Therefore she is innocent until proven guilty.

#44 Of course you don't have a subscription to News-Sun. Nobody in Springfield is an idjit that I know if, that's why I gave you the link.

You don't say she's sober? She must be sober or drunk. Then you must think she was drunk.

By your logic you MUST be saying she's drunk. Therefore you are A) making a claim you are unable to substantiate and B) lying when you say when did I ever say she was drunk?.

Its dangerous to use childish arguments Mrs Davis because they can be so easily turned against you.

As you might say qed

O i agree. I just like people to justify their statements with facts. If you are going to rubbish somebodies speech on the grounds they were drunk i want you to provide proof, otherwise its just so much heresay. But well said AC.

#55 American Idiot, use your dictionary.

"Sober" has two meanings, both appropriate to this discussion, but only one involves chemically altered mental state. Whatever Ms. Heinz-Kerry may be, she is certainly not a sober, or serious, person. On the other hand, she is an impulsive, elitist, obnoxious, overbearing little pissant of a woman, whose parents clearly didn't spank her enough when she was a child.

I hope that clarified things for you.

#58 Mrs Heinz is a intemperate, fat head (look at the pictures of her), elitist and clueless. Her insult of Mrs Bush was an insult against all teachers everywhere. My Wife the teacher was not amused. Her attempt to retract her insult was rightfully rejected on behalf of all those "little people" who teach and don't believe in your messed up socialist agendas.
