Ted Kennedy Claimed to Have Slept with over 1,000 Women
Cleveland Leader ^ | 10/8/08

Posted on 10/08/2009 11:06:50 AM PDT by LdSentinal

In a chapter of his autobiography, the late Senator Ted Kennedy confessed to having slept with over 1,000 women and spending more than $10 million in hush money to keep his womanizing ways a secret. If you crack open the book, however, you won't find a mention of this in there anywhere. That is because horrified family members and advisers cut it out before the book was published.

A close source also revealed to the National Enquirer that before he died of brain cancer at age 77 on August 25, Kennedy also revealed that he had planned to seduce Mary Jo Kopechne on the night she drowned. The source said:

"While dictating his memoirs into a tape recorder, Ted decided to tell the whole truth about his life - including his love life. He said that his first lover was an Irish nanny. She was about 19, and Ted was only 13.

When his mother found out, she sent the nanny back to Ireland. Rose made Ted pray on his knees for hours to ask forgiveness. But Ted recalled that even his sore knees couldn't wipe the smile off his face.

From that day on, he says he seduced as many women as he could, from maids and cooks at the family's Hyannis Port compound to college friends that his sisters brought home."

The source added that Kennedy even admitted to having planned to seduce Kopechne the night his car plunged off the road in Chappaquiddick.

"But his lawyers and friends begged him not to open that door. They said that even after his death, it would hurt his legacy and haunt the family.

He relented about Mary Jo, but went on to admit that he'd seduced the wives of some of his closest friends and even his brothers' girlfriends."

Ted had hoped his book would tell the truth about his life, but family members decided to hold off on including certain parts of the book out of respect to the family's reputation. Even though it was removed from the book, it seems the revelations leaked out regardless.

Well, finally, the Kennedy family has a reputation to protect.

Give the world a break. Old Joe was a booze runner and woman chaser. These two talents generous Joe passed on to his boys in full measure.

He probably waited until she stopped moving and did it anyway. After all, he was a Kennedy.

“Anybody surprised?”

Who cares? Really?

Doesn’t change how I feel about him. No respect for him before....none now, too.

What is a flubadub?

I have looked in all my dictionaries, and they tell me it is a puppet.

from urbandictionary.com
flubadub
phrase describing the inability to complete a coherent sentence... i.e mumbling like a bastard, or like old relatives when they are telling you about the days of old and you can’t understand what the devil they are saying.

I guess you could also call him a flubadub after he put on 100 pounds or so !

He’s not sleeping now.

Nothing he claimed could hurt his legacy here.... we already think so little of him that nothing could make it go lower

Some of those thousand women are pathetic. All are women I would have run from when I was single. Mary Jo had a chance to make that list, but Teddy K. thought she would resist less after soaking overnight in the Bay.

Given his name, that was ironic.

That’s $10,000 per woman.

Flub-a-dub was a strange little animal, the amalgam of eight breeds, who appeared on Howdy Doody.

That makes no sense. Doesn't the claim enhance the Kennedy family reputation of shagging anything with a pulse?

I don’t know. I guess that I’m alone in my thinking on this, but I find it very hard to believe that a man who knew he was dying and who wanted to try to leave a semi descent legacy, would suddenly become so candid and ever consider including such reputation tarnishing revelations in his final book. He would certainly be sharp enough to realize that any disclosures of that nature would overshadow everything else he chronicled about his life. Also, it’s really strains credulity to imagine that any father or grandfather, uncle etc. would want to leave a written admission of such distasteful goings on to his descendants.
