Ted Kennedy Claimed to Have Slept with over 1,000 Women

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.

How many were NOT threatened with drowning?
To: DoughtyOne
Oh, but the Catholic Church says folks like Teddy are “self-excommunicated”. Yeah, that’s a good example for others. Keeps others from following them down the road to hell. Yeah. I can see that...

Joe Sr, too, slept with anything that moved.
I read this one book which told the story of one of the Kennedy sisters inviting over a group of female friends for a sleep over. Jack smiled at one of them and said beware the Ambassador likes to prowl at night.

You mean out of embarassment [for the family’s reputation]!

does the book include all his best Mary Jo and Chappaquidix jokes? He loved to make jokes about it, they all said.

Apparently, he spent a lot of time in horse stalls too.

Difference character of Reagan and Kennedy. Like Night and Day.

Yea, they ought to start a “federal program” in MA to help the people there understand that their favorite politicians are very bad people. This is a reflection on the people of MA too.

I guess the left thinks rape is OK as long as the rapist is a prominent leftist advancing the cause. Yes, they do.

About 40 years ago, a friend of my neighbors who was having an affair at the time with Dan Rather, told us that Dan had told her that women lined up outside Ted's room at hotel/motels.
Young Ted Kennedy was a very handsome jerk!

Sadly, the church has made some real mistakes in judgment over the years. This is another example of it.

Works for the Rolling Stones.

I’ve come to understand that leftists actually have FAITH, godlike, religious faith, in the elected leftist elites.
They never question their motives, or their goals, or even the means to achieve those goals.
