In Massachusetts the Kennedy clan often gets the annulments it wants.

"Sigh" yourself. My point is that in today's America, practically everybody gets the annulment he wants. Money no longer confers any advantage, OK?

Come on! Annulments are still hard to get. John Kerry tried and failed to get one before he married fellow Catholic Teresa Heinz Ketchup. IOW he didn't have as much juice as the Kennedy clan.

Uh, no. I know of men who quit marriage tribunals when they received death threats after turning down requests.

It is true that there are a lot of annulments granted, but there's a lot that are granted based on omissions at the time of the marriage, i.e., refusal of children, planning ahead of time not to stay married (by one party - and yes I know of more than one annulment where this was the case), addictions, etc.
