How do you solve a problem like Tere-za?

"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..."

I'm all for Teresa. A little intelligence and outspokenness to open the flood gates and allow for free debate is a good thing. I also have no problem with her fighting back at a reporter who has continually attacked not only her but her family.
Post #26 - I took the comment about drugs to be that Laura was on drugs because she's so sedate. The last line had been about Bush calling someone "goons" and then "and his wife" so I thought it was Laura in question. I could believe she's sedated, but really I just don't think this is the life she thought she was getting into when marrying Bush.
And as a side note, I hadn't heard about her being on drugs but can anyone confirm or deny the rumor that when she was 17 she was driving drunk and ran over her boyfriend? Or is this more of the "sealed documentation" somehow or crap sent to me on the internet.
Report: Laura Bush in 1963 Car Wreck
By JIM VERTUNO, Associated Press Writer
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - At 17, Laura Bush ran a stop sign and crashed into another car, killing her boyfriend who was driving it, according to an accident report released to The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Mrs. Bush is the wife of Republican presidential nominee-to-be George W. Bush (news - web sites), the Texas governor.
``It was a very tragic accident that deeply affected the families and was very painful for all involved, including the community at large,'' said her spokesman, Andrew Malcolm. ``To this day, Mrs. Bush remains unable to talk about it.''
Mrs. Bush did say in March, when asked at a campaign stop about the crash, ``I know this as an adult, and even more as a parent, it was crushing ... for the family involved and for me as well.''
According to the two-page accident report released Wednesday by the city of Midland, Laura Welch was driving her Chevrolet sedan on a clear night shortly after 8 p.m. on Nov. 6, 1963, when she drove into an intersection and struck a Corvair sedan driven by 17-year-old Michael Douglas.
Although previous news accounts have reported Douglas was thrown from the car and broke his neck, those details were not in the report.
The speed of Laura Bush's car was illegible on the report. The speed limit for the road was 55.
Neither driver was drinking, the police report said.
Laura Bush and her passenger, Judy Dykes, also 17, were taken to a hospital and treated for minor injuries, according to an accident account printed at the time in the Midland Reporter-Telegram.
The police report indicates no charges were filed. That section of the report was left blank.
``As far as we know, no charges were filed,'' said Midland city attorney Keith Stretcher. ``I don't think it's unusual that charges weren't filed.''
The police report was released after an open records request was submitted to Midland officials in March. City officials had declined to release the records because the victims were under 18.
<<Post #6 to "go left" - I thought the double standard wasn't Dem v Repub, but more Man v Woman as elaborated by Teresa's speech at the convention. >>
Some have made that comparision, but post #6 seemed to be referring to the difference between Dems & Reps. Personally, I think Teresa's

LOLOLOL!
Teresa shows no respect to anyone but herself, and she is not the role model I want for our children. I don't care if the reporter was bugging her, if she can show no self-restrain or even admit when she is wrong, what is she going to be like representing the country? And yes, it is a package deal.
I never much liked Hilary, but, I will say, she always showed respect for others and she NEVER lost her cool.
