On the morning radio here, the story was given about 10 seconds and called "an internet rumor".

>>I wonder how long she'll stay in Kenya.<<
So long as the ketchup money keeps rolling in.
I wrote Heinz Corp. sometime ago that Hunts was my ketchup now even though I'd been weened on Heinz. No more Heinz products, TGIFridays, or Boston Markets either.
So long as Americans continue to fund TheRAYza by buying the products that bring her the big $$$, she will continue to fund all sorts of of leftist organizations including the doofus she married.

The media won't touch this story unless kerry is 'caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy'.

I hope this DOESN'T pick up steam. I'd much rather have the Jane Fonda and his traitorous stuff picking up steam instead.
This is ridiculous and the same crap that was with Klinton. Lewinsky got on the news. CHINA did not.

Do you really believe the liberal leftist media would find anything unusual or "wrong" with finding Just For Kerry in bed with a live boy?

For that matter Teddy got caught (more or less) with a dead girl and it didn't put a crimp in his career as a senator. What's with Massachusetts anyway?

Actually it was settled out of court. His right hand got off easy.

What's with Massachusetts anyway? You just have to wonder. Boggles the mind really.

The issue is that just how responsible is engaging in an affair after having seen and experienced what Clinton pulled? With them, it's all about what you can get away with doing, and it's not limited to matters such as these. Clinton got away with it. Responsibility has nothing to do with it - it's the avoidance of consequences that matters.

I think Fox is the only network to get a pass for not reporting it.
Obviously it is not good journalism however, Fox has a reputation for right wing bias. If Fox "broke" the story it would play wight into the hands of the VRWC.
I called CNN and was told that they were being inundated with phone calls about this. CNN said they were "researching" it still.
I also called ABC, MSNBC and CBS. I had to leave a message with their viewer response area. However, NBC News (including Today show) viewer response voice mail was full and not taking any more messages.
Something tells me the media is going to come out of this looking worse than Kerry.

Rather odd that many foreign media has no problem reporting it. I wont let Hume and Fox skate on this one.

'caught in bed with a dead girl... There was a time when John "F'n" Kerry was called John "The French-looking" Kerry. I saw a post earlier in the week that
France allows marriage between a living person and a formerly living person.
So, they press will just play Bagdhad Bob. Again.

If the woman chooses not to come forward, which is her right, why would there be a story here?Supposedly a friend of the woman "came forward" to a reporter and related "fantastic stories" about the affair. There has been mention of letters between the two.
Now IF there is at least one reporter in possession of such information, I would call that a story. Not necessarily an airtight case, but, still, a story.
Especially now, after Kerry has denied it.
And how often do the media wait until a story is airtight before they run with it? Answer: Practically never. Witness the media's shameless behavior in pursuing the baseless smears of the president's Guard service.
