Teresa insists hubby `likes people'

Trying to erase the image of her husband as aloof, Teresa Heinz Kerry yesterday insisted Sen. John F. Kerry ``likes people'' and went so far as to say he would make a great nursery school teacher.

Don't let us keep him from his destiny, Terry! There's more Teresa blather by following the link, but I especially like:

Addressing terrorism, she said, ``We're not going to fight terrorism with missiles, we're going to fight terrorism with ideas. And I think that John knows that, deep down.''

C'mon folks, point her to the clue phone - someone might be ringing her with an "idea."

But speaking of Teresa, here's some fun. You may have seen the AP report that a group called the Ruckus Society is training protestors for the Republican convention in New York. Popping over to ActivistCash.org we find:

If you’ve heard of Ruckus Society at all, it was probably in relation to the 1999 World Trade Organization protests in Seattle. Americans watched in horror as organized hoodlums ran roughshod over the city’s commercial district, smashing windows, setting fires, overturning vehicles, ransacking a Starbucks coffee shop and a McDonald’s restaurant, and generally putting lives at risk. It’s no coincidence that the Ruckus Society staffers were in the middle of the melee, giving on-the-record quotes to national media figures. Nor was it an accident that Ruckus director John Sellers represented the protesters when the terms of their arrest were being negotiated with Seattle police. The Ruckus Society is generally credited with organizing the whole Seattle spectacle in the first place. When the dust had settled, Sellers smugly told USA Today, “We kicked the WTO’s butt all over the Northwest.”

Note to John, the NYPD is in a different league than the goobers in Seattle. And while you're at ActivistCash, click the "Financials" tab. By far the biggest contributor in recent years is:

It's Teresa's favorite charity, the money launderers for wingnut cash! How cool is that? What could better for a politician than a rich wife to finance violent protests at your opponent's convention? I guess Tersea's not just a pretty face!
