Heinz Kerry accepts husband's endorsement by environmental group

[maddezmom]

LOS ANGELES --
Saying environmentalists are "at least offended if not mad as hell" at the Bush administration, Teresa Heinz Kerry accepted an endorsement of her husband Thursday by the California League of Conservation Voters.

She also said energy conservation is necessary because "no American, boy or girl, should have to go to war and lose their lives because of our gluttonous need for oil."

If John Kerry is elected president, he would work with the private sector to implement environmentally friendly business practices, Heinz Kerry said during an appearance at the Audubon Society building at Debs Park.

"John and I believe that we have to have corporate America at the table and being a part of providing answers to a lot of these problems," she said. "They can make changes so much faster."

4. She also said energy conservation is necessary

How did she get from Boston to the event? Did she take a private jet and a limo or did she fly commercial and ride in a Prious?

"implement environmentally friendly business practices"
Do her 57 overseas Heinz factories implement environmentally friendly business practices? Were they moved there by a Benedict Arnold?

Talk is cheap.

8. Does she pratice what she preaches?

7. The same way Dennis Kucinich got to Hawaii, you divisive fool.

Only in a smaller jet, I would imagine. Unless she flew on her husband's charter plane that flew today from Minnesota to LA.

9. So much for energy conservation

I'm sure there was a comercial flight going there around the same time. All I'm saying is that one practice what they preach.
