| Official Scarf Of The Kerry Campaign |
| 2004-04-05 |
| Slow news day... Teresa Heinz Kerry is a millionaire philanthropist and a popular public speaker (?) for her husband’s presidential campaign. Now she can add scarf designer to her resume. Quite the dilletante, isn’t she? Heinz Kerry has been draping a new red, white and blue silk scarf around her neck that she helped design for her husband’s campaign. The scarf is covered with little flags and her husband’s initials and says "John Kerry for President 2004" in script at the bottom. Let me guess... what European country shares those same colors in their flag? Heinz Kerry worked on the design with professionals at Vineyard Vines in Greenwich, Conn. Vineyard Vines spokeswoman Demi Wasilko said Kerry usually wears the company’s $65 neckties, favoring bright pastels. WWMT (What Would Martha Think)? The Vineyard Vines owners worked with the campaign staff to design a John Kerry for President tie, Wasilko said. And after that, maybe a few policy positions with detail and substance... The campaign tie and scarf — both 100 percent silk — are not available for sale. Just 100 of the scarves and around 400 of the ties were made for the campaign to give to donors. And verrry French! |

| #8 It is too bad they don't believe in what the flag stands for. I wonder if the "little flags" are displayed upright or upside down like on Ketchup Man's book New Soldier? Anyone who hasn't seen this despicable picture EMAIL me I'll send a copy on. |

| #7 Is Monica designing hand-bags or douche-bags? |

| #6 Assuming that's the scarf she's wearing in the Yahoo news photo, it's predictable and banal. She'd better not give up her day job. |

| #4 These Democrats are so talented. Which reminds me. Is Monica still designing handbags? I wonder if Hillary ever bought one. |

| #2 Seeing as Kerry would appease the Turbans repeatedly, shouldn't it be more of a keffiyeh? |
