My skin does not crawl when I see a former-Republican like Teresa Heinz Kerry who saw the light and became a Democrat. Sticking to the facts once again, her is some info. on a remarkable First Lady to-be: 1. President George Bush Sr. appointed her in 1992 as part of a State Department Delegation representing U.S. non-governmental organizations at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. 2. She Chairs the Howard Heinz Endowment and the Heinz Family Philanthropies, supporting education, children, reducing the cost of prescription drugs, promoting the arts and helping women achieve financial economic security. 3. She established the Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement in 1996 to educate women about pensions, savings, and retirement security. 4. She has received numerous awards and 10 honorary degrees. 5. In September 2004, she was presented with the prestigious Albert Schweitzer Gold Medal for humanitarianism, for her work protecting the environment, promoting health care and education and uplifting women and children throughout the world. 6. Elected fellow of the prestigious American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2001. Please re-read #1 above to see who support her. Republican loyalty is fickle - just like Donald Rumsfield who went to Iraq in 1983 and met Saddam to do business with him (sell US arms). The same arms Saddam used to kill people. Now Rumsfield and other Republicans sing a different tune. Regards, George
