"How do you solve a problem like Tere-zah?"


All week I've been whistling the tune from "The Sound of Music," mentally substituting the name Teresa for Maria.


"How do you catch a cloud and pin it down? How do you find a word that means Teresa? A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the-wisp! A clown..."

Why how very scandalous!

It seems Teresa said "shove it" to a reporter and now the gossips are atwitter, they believe this phrase shows a sense of entitlement (& other qualities too numerous to mention).

I'm waiting for the column that explains what The Dick Cheney's well-quoted phrase, "go f*** yourself" shows - that should be very meaningful and insightful.

And anyone who believes there is not a double standard involved here can shove it.

While I tend to refrain from too much American politics, I have to say I completely agree with your statement.

So...why don't we address Dick's faux-pas and we can all have at it?

That'll make thing a bit more balanced, n'est pas?

It sounds as if you are kind of jealous, not only is Theresa getting songs song about her, but she is also going to be the next first lady of the United States!!

Here is one about Bush, not sure of the days.

94 days until George Bush loses, only 94 more short days!! Take a look around, the republicans are coming down, only 93 days until George Bush loses!!!

In all honesty, you must becoming desperate, if you constantly attack John Kerry's wife. Stick to the issues and defend your man!

I don't think there's one. One has about NOTHING to do with the other.

This is yet, another in a LONG LIST of examples of how Bush supporters want to deflect attention away from the Bush/Cheney record of 2001 - Present.

Why? Because as the 9/11 commission's report shows: The man in charge of protecting us, is OFFICIALLY having to be told how.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

They need to quit running their mouths and START RUNNING THE COUNTRY!

If don't like it, go ask Cheney for advice.

Imagine how Laura Bush feels about her, bet she hates her like poison.

Teresa's ok, not the raw 100% WOMAN POWER of Hillary, but she's pretty cool in my book.

That's the kind of woman Laura Bush impresses you as (at least towards Teresa anyway)? Hates her like poison?????

Thank goodness she isn't like Hillary!!!

OK, so my sarcasm is a bit dull today.

What's wrong with Hillary?

I second that question :)

People on the right seem scared to death of her, I don't get it.

I don't have time to read all the threads within this topic but I LOVE Teresa!! LOL LOL LOL It is about time for a first lady that is not a Stepford Wife mold. Teresa is a little gutsy like Barbara Bush. She speaks her mind. For instance, yesterday in Wisconsin some Bush supporters showed up and tried to disrupt her speech by screaming "FOUR MORE YEARS!" She stopped and said, "Yeah..they want four more years of HELL!" ROFLOL You could see Senator Kerry and some other man taken aback for a second and then they started to smile! It was as if they were thinking, "Well, that's Teresa for you!" LOL Then she started to scream, "THREE MORE MONTHS! THREE MORE MONTHS!" ROFLOL She is simply too much and it is like a breath of fresh air. GO Teresa! LOL
