Although there are a couple of threads about the NE story, as far as I can tell nobody has posted the highlights. So here goes:
"John Kerry is so vain that one former girlfriend says he always wanted to make love where he could see himself in the mirror!"
...The first time he took Hollywood star Dana Delany home, his big move was showing her video clips taken of him in the Navy while he was in Vietnam. She never went out with him again.
He dated Morgan Fairchild and Michelle Phillips - and they've both donated to other Democratic candidates for the 2004 election. What does that tell you they think of him now?.
"Kerry could compete with Bill Clinton as a womanizer. Between his two marriages, he was notorious for hitting the singles bars in Boston and Washington with a posse of wealthy friends.
"Even after he was married, a gorgeous 22-year old blonde was spotted leaving his Boston townhouse in 1998, while his wife was in Nantucket...
Many voteres would be surprised to learn about Kerry's lineage, too. "Kerry is not Irish, although he doesn't go out of his way to explain his true roots," said the source. "Massachusetts is the most Irish-American state."
His grandfather, Frederick Kerry was born Fritz Kohn. A Czech Jew, Fritz changed his name and converted to Catholicism to avoid anti-semitism. A family member claimed the name Kerry was chosen by dropping a pencil on a map of Europe. The pencil landed on County Kerry in Ireland.
Frederick and his wife Ida, a Hungarian Jew who also convereted to Catholicism, immigrated to the US in 1905. Frederick worked in the shoe business.
Nut on Nov. 23, 1921, he walked intoa bathroom at Boston's Copley Plaza Hotel, took out a gun and put a bullet in his head. Articles from the time cite financial difficulties as a possilbe motive for the suicide.
...By the late 1980's, Kerry was floundering financially without the help of a wealthy wife.
For months at a time, he found himself homeless, forced to live with lobbyist friends or his former brother-in-law, David Thorne.
But his financial situation changed when he met his second wife, Teresa Heinz, the widow of Pennsylvania Sen. H. John Heinz, heir to the condiment fortune. Teresa inherited 550 million from her late husband.
Isn't it odd that every tv cablenews network immediately ran the NE's story on Rush, with no qualms of it's accuracy, but so far, I haven't seen a peep of this or Drudge's headline on CNN, MSNBC, or FOX? Has anyone else?
Per Rush, Clark to be on CNN @ 3:30 est; will they ask Gen. Clark about this-Hah!
We're just starting to find that out.
Someone reminded me of this today. It was originally published in February, 2004.
And if you buy that one I think you'd be interested in purchasing shares in an enterprise to construct a bridge connecting lower Manhattan with Long Island.
I often pick one up and peruse it while on line, though I return it to the rack before checking out. I read it with the same morbid curiosity with which the tongue probes a festering tooth.
"So who were John Kerry's parents?"
Foghorn Leghorn and The Little Red Hen.
