Sen. John Kerry sold his foreign mansion in Italy just weeks before he announced a run for the White House in January of 2003, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Actor George Clooney purchased the stunning 18th century mansion located in the Italian village of Laglio [50 miles north of Milan] from Kerry and his wife for $7,800,000. Clooney first learned about the listing from Brad Pitt, who had been holidaying with his wife Jennifer Aniston at Versace's compound nearby.
While Kerry and his wife's homes in the United States are worth at least $23,733,705, it is not clear if the candidate currently owns property overseas.
The campaign has repeatedly denied requests for any information on foreign assets held by Kerry.
Jonah; To deter suspicions that he is partisan, today Clarke swore under oath that he would NOT accept any job in any Kerry administration - should there be one. To deter criticisms that he acting out of personal greed (by manufacturing a false controversy to sell his book), let's challenge Clarke to donate all proceeds from his book to the 9/11 families.

Sure, I believe this:
"I WANT to expose my child to everything. What she decides on her own is fine. However my daughter turns out - if she's gay, if she becomes a Republican, if she becomes a Republican lesbian - as long as she's a happy one, I don't care" - Alec Baldwin in Gotham (PageSix)
More childishness and low-class behavior from celebrities:
Does Bill Cosby believe that Condoleezza Rice has cooties? At yesterday's Capitol Hill ceremony honoring civil rights icon Dorothy Height, the comedian was supposed to be seated next to President Bush's national security adviser - whose role in the run-up to 9/11 and its aftermath has come under intense scrutiny and heavy fire. But according to Republican sources, shortly before the proceedings commenced in the Capitol Rotunda - where Bush presented the 92-year-old Height with the Congressional Gold Medal - Cosby's assistant informed an event organizer that Cosby would prefer to sit elsewhere. The request was accommodated, I'm told.
Yesterday, Cosby spokesman David Brokaw said: "I just got a hold of him 20 minutes ago and I put the question to him: Did he ask not to sit next to Dr. Rice? And his answer was: 'That's not true.' "
Brokaw, however, was unable to explain why the seating arrangement was changed. "One of Mr. Cosby's people went up to an organizer and said Mr. Cosby does not want to sit next to Miss Rice," a top GOP staffer told me. "I think people were kind of shocked by his show of partisanship at a bipartisan ceremony."
As for Cosby's denial, the staffer insisted: "Mr. Cosby didn't ask. It was an assistant." Rice's spokesman told me: "Dr. Rice has the highest respect for Dr. Cosby and his work." (Cosby has a doctorate in education.) source
Isn't his doctorate an honorary one?
Sooooo true. I think we're zeroing in on the 'Effing's' problem.
