Who wouldn't married to LURCH! Of course Tahreeza just boozes it up to blur her vision of him! LOL
Does his annulment make his kids bastards like him?
Why? GWB is not a Democrat.
Looking at his 'lovely' daughters, I'd say a stump-broken horse.
Gee, John Kerry sure knows how to lure the rich ones, doesn't he?
A: The Government. But he divorced when he found someone who can spend other peoples money even faster.
They honeymooned in Jamaica.
remember when the swifties said that Kerry met with the enemy in Paris, the kerry campaign came out and said he was on his honeymoom there and while in Paris was asked to join a meeting??????
ANOTHER LIE!!!
THE SENATE'S NEW ROMEO?

WASHINGTON -- His divorce has been final for only six months, but already Sen. John Kerry has acquired a first-class rake's reputation in the rarefied world of rich, handsome, young bachelor senators.
To hear the gossips tell it, the tall, dark-haired former Navy officer with the surgically improved chin has been cutting a swath through the ranks of America's most available young women, inspiring both admiration and envy among the capital's preening young singles.
Ah... the Thorne family. I heard that had a bit of trouble with that Damian kid."Thorne told McLellan that she was never comfortable with the pretense demanded by politics. “When John won the primaries for the lieutenant governorship of Massachusetts, we went to do our publicity photographs with Kitty and Mike Dukakis,” Thorne recalled. “Kitty had just come out of a rehab center, and I had just asked John for a separation—and here we were, living these enormous lies. We had to live those lies for the whole campaign.”
Times have not changed
I knew her name is Julia Thorne before I even opened the thread. Do I win something?
Who was Kerry's first wife? Significantly poorer.
There is some dispute concerning whether an annulment was ever granted. Kerry asked for one in 1997, but he and his campaign have never confirmed that it was granted. Check this out from April 9, 2004.
Living in Sin? HUMAN EVENTS reported last week that Sen. John Kerry (D.-Mass.), who says he is a practicing Catholic, may have problems with his church over the issues of abortion and gay marriage as he seeks the presidency. But there may be more trouble ahead. According to news reports in Time and the New York Times, Catholic League president William Donahue pointed out in an April 2 news release, Kerry's second marriage in 1995 to ketchup heiress Teresa Heinz took place before Kerry had sought an annulment of his first 18-year marriage. It is not known whether this annulment was actually granted, and Kerry has not confirmed or denied it.
"If Kerry did not receive an annulment, then he is not married in the Catholic Church and cannot receive the sacraments," said Donahue. "But even if he was annulled, did he and Teresa Heinz get married in the Catholic Church following the annulment? If not, then Kerry is not married in the Church, thus raising all sorts of questions." The Atlanta Journal-Constitution tried to find the answer in February, but reported that "Kerry's office didn't respond to several e-mail and telephone requests" regarding whether he got an annulment. The Providence Journal-Bulletin wrote on March 23 that Kerry "will not say whether he obtained an annulment of his first marriage."
$ $ $ And they lived happily ever after. $ $ $
gawd, leave the poor woman alone. she probably doesn't want to have to relive that awful time.
Since Kerry married before being granted an annullment, he was not legitamitely married in a Catholic sacrament. Either he lied about his previous marriage or he was not married by a competent Catholic priest. In either case, his 1995 marriage to THK is not a Catholic marriage.
Too bad she didn't choose a guy ont he right side of politics... for us anyway We associate politics with happiness, hope and togetherness with our family of people who think, hope and push for the same common good! ah well. :)

John Kerry Weds Miss Julia Thorne
Special to the New York TimesBAY SHORE, L. I., May 23 -- Miss Julia Stimson Thorne, whose ancestors helped to shape the American Republic in its early days, and John Forbes Kerry, who wants to help steer it back from what he considers a wayward course, were married here this afternoon at the 200 acre Thorne family estate.
Some 250 guests attended the ceremony amid the flowering dogwood, tulips, lilacs, azaleas and rhododendron of the Umberto Innocenti-designed gardens overlooking the Great South Bay. Msgr. Eugene V. Clark of St. Patrick's Cathedral performed the ceremony, assisted by the bride's stepgrandfather, the Rev. Charles Leslie Glenn, assistant dean of the Episcopal Cathedral of S. S. Peter and Paul (National Cathedral).
The bride wore a cream-colored wedding gown, first worn two centuries ago in the wedding of her ancestors, Catherine Peartree-Smith and Elias Boudinot 4th, who served as president of the Continental Congress under the Articles of Confederation. Alexander Hamilton was best man at that wedding and among those present was George Washington.
Whether today's wedding becomes a similar footnote to history may depend on the bridegroom, a graduate of Yale and a veteran of the Vietnam war, who is considering running for Congress from his native Massachusetts.
Mr. Kerry, who criticized the fundamentals of American foreign 'policy as class orator at the 1966 Yale graduation exercises, said he joined the Navy and went to Vietnam because he wanted to study that policy first hand.
There, he earned the Silver Star, the Bronze Star, the Combat Action Ribbon and three Purple Hearts as the commander of a patrol boat on the rivers of the Mekong Delta.
He recently discussed his conclusions over network television when he offered views opposing Herbert Klein, the Nixon Administration's director of communications, on the Dick Cavett Show.
Following the customs of Italy, where the bride has made her home, the couple had witnesses instead of honor attendants and a best man. The bride's witnesses were her brother, Landon. Ketchum Thorne 3d, and Count Guiseppe Cigala-Fulgosi; and the bridegroom's were his brother, Cameron Forbes Kerry, and the bride's brother, David Hoadley Thorne, a Yale classmate, who introduced the couple during a Long Island visit several years ago.
Mrs. Kerry is the daughter of Mrs. Alice Barry Thorne of Rome, and Mr. Thorne Jr., a former minister of economics to Italy and; the Benelux countries, who published The Rome Daily American. A former banker in New York, he now manages the family's investments from a Wall Street office.
The bride is a granddaughter of Mrs. Thorne, who owns the estate, and the late Mr. Thorne, a utilities underwriter and banker, who was a managing partner and helmsman of the Whirlwind and unsuccessful America's Cup contender in 1930.
The bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kerry of Groton, Mass., where his father, a retired Foreign Service officer, is a lawyer. He is the grandson of Mrs. James Grant Forbes of St. Briac, France, and the late Mr. Forbes, an international lawyer and banker in Boston, London and Paris.
Mrs. Kerry, who, was a member of the Junior Assemblies in 1962, was graduated from Foxcroft and attended the New York School of Interior Design. Her husband was graduated from St. Paul's. After a wedding trip to Jamaica, the couple will live in Massachusetts.

But, but, I thought Jean AlQuery said that he just happened to visit with the North Vietnamese delegation in Paris when he happened to be there on his HONEYMOON! Surely he wouldn't LIE about something like that, would he? /sarcasm
