June 1, 2007 -- WASHINGTON - Gruff, graying Republican Fred Thompson has a proven track record of tapping into a younger generation - starting with his wife.
The 64-year-old ex-senator wowed Generation X with his movie roles in "The Hunt for Red October" and "Die Hard 2," and he won over his bombshell blonde wife, Jeri Kehn - 24 years his junior.

my husband is only 2 years older than me, and, lamentably, not filthy rich ; ) but i think you do a disservice to a number of freeper women who have married men more than a few years older than themselves. i don’t think it’s fair to impugn the motives of May-December romances. heck, if, God forbid, something happened to xshub i wouldn’t mind an Ashton Kutcher ; )
I live in Phoenix, and we see a LOT of this kind of thing in Scottsdale. Everytime we see a trophy wife, my wife turns to me and tells me she's glad she didn't do thiat--she'd hate to be pushing a wheelchair for 20 years followed by being a widow.
For the nonce, we both climbed Mt. Humphries in Flagstaff (12,633 feet) with our Cubs last weekend. Trophy wives are too busy getting pedicures to do such things.
Obligatory thread-related comment: I'm a leg man, so based on looks, I vote for Mrs. Kook-sinnish. But if you Google her webpage, she is even more of looney flower child than him.
Cheers! Cheers!
Actually, in a way, he did. Just not into the living quarters.
BTW, I like the way you refused to capitalize hillary.
Cheers!
I robbed the cradle...my Marine will be pushing my wheelchair! ;^)
Ok you are right about bill dragging Monica into the WH, but he didn’t try to move her in to live there! ;^)
Trophy wives are generally a bit busy with those pedicures to be pumping out a couple of kids too. Also, men looking for trophy wives don’t usually date them for multiple years prior to marrying them.
Fred didn’t have to marry someone to have a beautiful woman on his arm. Calling her a trophy wife is an insult to both of them and completely ignorant.
Sorry, I wasn't referring to Mrs. Thompson as the trophy wife; I was making comments about trophy wives in general, based upon observations of the flora and fauna of Scottsdale, Arizona. Concerning this thread, if I was thinking of anyone mentioned here, it would be Kook-sinnish's new bride.
(Who, as a leggy redhead, gets my vote in the *looks* department, only.)
I'll stick with my own wife over either of them, thank you very much...
Cheers!
No wonder Hillary Clinton has to desperatly go to the “Desperate Women” support her most claim to establish her as a leader in some category.
IOW Hillary Clinton is left with the ugly woman vote.
Fortunatly there are vastly more beautiful women in the world than the few ugly women.
LOLOL!
That's a good one. ;o)
I'm happy for them, too.
Everyone needs to have a soulmate, even if they are nutz.
My husband is four years older than I.
I know...not a lot older...but I was 19.
EVERY man exuded power to me at that age. lol
BUT, he’s still got it, even after 36 years.
Please give your hubby my grateful thanks for his service.
Tell him to be sure to keep his knees in shape...
...to push your wheel chair. ;o)
Fred and Jerri, huh? After his stay in office they can go into the ice cream business.
She looks like lindsey Lohan, but older.
Redheads are extraordinarily dangerous. Then can go off without warning.
She’s from Naperville, Illinois.
Men are visual.
Women look for someone strong enough to take care of them.
It’s just natural:
Attractive women were usually the healthier ones—therefore better genetically and better at child-bearing.
Men who can take care of a woman protect her enough so that she can survive pregnancy and take care of the babies.
It was a wonderful partnership!
If by a “boob job,” you mean having boobs that are different than those with which you started, then I think marrying Dennis would qualify as a “boob job.”
Yes. Explains why bill gates could find a wife, any wife.
Men are indeed visual. Hence my demand for only babes for stewardesses and cocktail waitresses. :o)
I read that the wedding took place in Tennessee, 90 degree weather, humid, in a non air-conditioned church. The dress seems appropriate.
