...A mono-sound copy Two Virgins, which he recorded with Yoko Ono, is expected to fetch at least £2,500. When the avant-garde LP was released in November 1968 it was notable for being sold in brown paper bags because the sleeve controversially featured a naked picture of the famous couple on the cover. Although a limited release of 5,000 stereo versions of the album were available in shops, fans had to write to the record label to purchase a mono copy of the record. The exact number of mono copies sold is not known, but auction organisers say it is likely...

Michael Richards exploded in anger as he performed at a famous L.A. comedy club last Friday, hurling racial epithets that left the crowd gasping, and TMZ has obtained exclusive video of the ugly incident.

Dear Santa: Please keep John Kerry and John Edwards out of the news. Their whining and crying is making me sick. I read on Freerepublic today a wonderful article by someone in the midst of the blast in Mosul. It was a very touching story. But right below it on the Breaking Thread on Freerepublic was a WHINING THREAD ABOUT JOHN KERRY CRYING ABOUT LOSING OHIO. Please Santa, can you just flush these Johns until 2005 or is it too much to ask when true American heroes are dying in Iraq to have read about such terrible people as John...

I'm wondering what course they take now that they have lost regarding the senate. I believe Kerry still has 4 years in his term, but what about Edwards?

He may wear a pretty, skintight Body Glove, Gucci Turtleneck, listen to Barbara Streisand, and have an artificial bronze hue; but don't kid yourself, he don't swing that way. He's plenty tough enough! By day he's the windsurfing, flip-flopping, French looking Liberal Senator from Massachusetts; but by night, John Kerry is... "Metro-Sexual Man." With his trusty sidekick Silky Boy, it's off to the Femmobile to save America from his arch nemesis "W" and his partner in crime "The VP." Financed by his Billionaire Sugar-Mamma "Teresa" (actually the inspiration for the Kinks 1970 hit Lola), Metro-Man and Silky Boy promise to...

September 26, 2004THE RUNNING MATEFor Edwards and Kerry, an Evolving Partnership With Awkward MomentsBy RANDAL C. ARCHIBOLD ASHINGTON, Sept. 24 - They present the image of a close partnership, starting with campaign signs that, unlike President Bush and Vice President Cheney's, give their names nearly equal billing.In speeches, John Kerry refers to "John Edwards and I'' and for Mr. Edwards it's "John Kerry and I.'' They play much of the same music at their events, and when they are together, Mr. Kerry makes a conscious effort to embrace his running mate and joke about their unlikely partnership."He represents a state...

A veterans group seeking to deeply discredit Democrat John Kerry's military service will charge in the new bombshell book UNFIT FOR COMMAND: Two of John Kerry's three Purple Heart decorations resulted from self-inflicted wounds, not suffered under enemy fire. All three of Kerry's Purple Hearts were for minor injuries, not requiring a single hour of hospitalization. A "fanny wound" was the highlight of Kerry's much touted "no man left behind" Bronze Star. Kerry turned the tragic death of a father and small child in a Vietnamese fishing boat into an act of "heroism" by filing a false report on the...

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio - A church pastor who invited Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry to speak during a Sunday service said he rebuffed criticism from others upset by Kerry's support of a woman's right to have an abortion. The Rev. Ronald Logan, senior pastor of the Greater Grace Temple, didn't identify the source of the criticism, but the full house of 800 loudly cheered and applauded when Logan said he welcomed Kerry, running mate John Edwards as fellow worshippers. They were joined by four Ohio congressional Democrats and former U.S. Sen. John Glenn, who sat in the front row. Logan estimated...

SEN. JOHN EDWARDS (10:27 PM): "Between now and November, you, the American people, you can reject this tired old hateful negative politics of the past and instead you can embrace the politics of hope, the politics of what's possible, because this is America where everything is possible." (Sen. John Edwards, Remarks At The Democratic National Convention, Boston , MA, 7/28/04 )   AL SHARPTON (8:30 PM): "I suggest to you tonight that if George Bush had selected the court in ‘54, Clarence Thomas would have never got to law school."

Sent by his American parents to a posh Swiss boarding school in the foothills of the Alps, an 11-year-old John F. Kerry did what most any other kid would do - he learned to curse in Italian. ``Spaccare la faccia, porco,'' Cam Kerry remembered his older brother saying, a phrase which, loosely translated, means ``Shove it in your face, pig.'' But John Kerry wasn't any normal kid. Just a few years later, tucked in another high-brow boarding school - this one the exclusive St. Paul's in Concord, N.H., a teenage Kerry helped form a debating club and won a prize...

Yeah, well if they suck that bad make your own! There once was a man named Kerry Whose voting record was very scary He flips and he flops, while his poll numbers drop and his positions seem contrary There once was a Democrat named John who of waffles he was very fond over and over he served them up while for some odd reason his followers ate them up until they evetually caught on Part 1: The Fairy There once was a fairy named Leon who asked a paticular John what is your wish I'll serve up a dish and...

I think Washington Whispers is onto something. Kerry and Edwards represent America's first metrosexual ticket. "They talk about how good their hair looks, they pat each other on the cheek and butt, both wear expensive suits, and the top guy on the Democratic presidential ticket gets his nails done," says the Whispers report. I'm all for a fellow taking care of himself. A man who dresses well and carries himself as a gentleman projects a quiet dignity. But the metrosexual carries it to the point of obsession. Metrosexuals, says the New York Times, are straight urban men who are willing,...

He was the high-spirited child romping in the Oval Office, the brave little mourner in short pants saluting his dead father, the charismatic crown prince of America's royal family. But he also was the consummate New Yorker, cheering for the Knicks at Madison Square Garden, smooching with a girlfriend in Central Park, skating down Fifth Ave., shopping for lox at Zabar's. Sure, he was "the sexiest man alive" with a smile that made women swoon, and he romanced Madonna and Daryl Hannah. But John F. Kennedy Jr. never lost the common touch, and it won him a place in the...

Long after John Edwards passes into oblivion he'll be remembered for one thing: he brought out the touchy feelers in John Kerry. For two guys who didn't much get along there was nothing like the prospect of shared power to turn them into ever-loving pals. But that doesn't make their sudden unity any less appalling. American men used to be American men. They would shake hands, period. Even fathers and sons. Or especially fathers and sons. That always amused the observer in me, growing up as I did in a somewhat different culture. Poles weren't exactly Italians, but plenty warm...

Today Senator John Edwards filed a sexual harassment suit against his running mate, presidential candidate John Kerry, alleging frequent incidents of “inappropriate physical contact,” “persistent fondling,” and “demeaning comments contributing to a hostile work environment.” Detailed within Senator Edwards suit are the following complaints: 1. Senator Kerry caused emotional distress when he put Senator Edwards in a headlock and “seriously messed up his hair.” 2. In front of a large crowd of supporters Senator Kerry chased Senator Edwards around an Iowa parking lot shouting, “Come over here and give Daddy a kiss!” 3. While campaigning in Florida, Kerry insisted that...

No, it’s not just a Jackson Browne song, it’s what these two millionaires want you to believe. These are perhaps the first “Johns” in history to not need a prostitute - because they are servicing other better than any Lady Of The Evening could ever dream of doing. Reading this New York Times romance novel disguised as a news article we find out that they “finish each other’s sentences”, “touch each other’s arms”, “laugh at each other’s jokes”, hang out with no shoes or ties on, playfully correct each other, and that when John Edwards talks John Kerry liste…er.. Fiddles...

JOHN JOHN ON 60 MINUTES Last night, sKerry and Edwards were on '60 Minutes.' Was this a hard-hitting interview, grilling the presumptive Democratic nominee and his running mate on the issues? Of course not. This is, after all, CBS and 60 Minutes we're talking about. Let the media fawning begin. Lesley Stahl interviewed the candidates and their wives with such probing questions as "are you worried about being upstaged by your running mate?" (Kerry said no, but he should be worried, since unlike himself, Edwards actually has a pulse when he speaks publicly.) Then came the usual idiocy...Edwards brushed aside...

Dear Insight: I have been given a manuscript that may be of interest to your readers. It consists of what appears to be a series of letters written on the campaign trail by John Kerry to Sen. Ted Kennedy. I include two of them in this e-mail for your consideration. The authenticity of the letters is suggested by, among other things, echoes of the idioms and intonations of Kerry, as for example, in the proliferation of the pronoun "I." The manuscript in my possession includes several other letters such as the one here provided. My anonymous source, who I can...

The lesson of Radio CityJuly 12th, 2004 Last week’s profanity-laden Democratic fundraiser in Radio City Music Hall has important consequences, far beyond its impact on voters’ understanding of candidates Kerry and Edwards, and their relationship with the Hollywood elites. The audience which is closely watching this domestic political imbroglio includes potential foes of the United States overseas. What have they learned about the way a future President Kerry would deal with them?Senator Kerry has demonstrated the worst kind of irresolution possible, sending a message of weakness, vacillation, and, yes, flip-flopping. At the conclusion of the performance itself, he spoke of the...

These guys seem a little too chummy to me?

They talk about how good their hair looks, they pat each other on the cheek and butt, both wear expensive suits, and the top guy on the new Democratic presidential ticket gets his nails done. Is it any wonder the GOP is whispering that the duo of John Kerry and John Edwards are the first "metrosexual" ticket, a reference to the New Age term describing straight guys who act gay? Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. Bush aides even suggest that Saturday Night Live feature the two in an episode of cartoon Ace and Gary, the "Ambiguously...

by Larry Kudlow (7/10) Has the choice of John Edwards as John Kerry's running mate re-scrambled the election odds for November?

NEW YORK (AP) - Bear hugs. Pats on the back. Shoulder squeezes. John Kerry and John Edwards are all over each other. The two Democrats and one-time rivals have shared so much public affection since becoming a team Tuesday that the presidential candidate even joked about it in New York after Edwards introduced him at fund-raisers and rallies - and hugged him before turning over the podium. Kerry grinned and shook his head. ``There's been a lot of hugging this week,'' the Massachusetts senator remarked with a chuckle Friday. Later, Kerry mentioned that Jay Leno had teased the Democratic ticket...

It was day one of a new beautiful relationship. Backs were slapped, hands held, hugs given, and teeth flashed. The epithets flowed thick and fast in Cleveland. "They are the dream team", "the dynamic duo". In truth, John Kerry and John Edwards are rather more like the odd couple. In the heat of battle for the Democratic presidential nomination, there had been some bad blood between them. Today was a chance to dispel the doubts. Edwards' magic It was very much "family viewing". Fresh from a night at the Kerry farm near Pittsburgh, they appeared as life-long friends. With children...

Kerry/Edwards '04, for a Metrosexual America! Some day, when I’m awfully low,When the world is cold,I will feel a glow just thinking of you...And the way you look tonight. Yes you’re lovely, with your smile so warmAnd your cheeks so soft,There is nothing for me but to love you,And the way you look tonight. With each word your tenderness grows,Tearing my fear apart...And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,It touches my foolish heart. Lovely ... never, ever change.Keep that breathless charm.Won’t you please arrange it?’cause I love you ... just the way you look tonight. Mm, mm, mm, mm,Just...

Kerry, Edwards Revel in Brotherhood of Campaign Energy, Enthusiasm Infectious as Democrats Take Message to Battleground States By Dan Balz and Jim VandeHei Washington Post Staff Writers Sunday, July 11, 2004; Page A08 RALEIGH, N.C., July 10 -- Once thought to have a frosty relationship, John Kerry and John Edwards cannot seem to get enough of each other. In their first week as the Democratic Party's prospective 2004 ticket, they have hugged and patted, playfully ruffled each other's hair, reveled in their wives and families, tossed a football -- "I'm a receiver," Edwards said -- and traded advice on topics...

But that's not what the vice...

What's up with all this John-John touchy-feely? ``After a mere two days on the campaign trail, the first signs of tension between John Kerry and running mate John Edwards emerged today as Sen. Edwards requested, firmly and unequivocally, that Mr. Kerry stop grabbing his . . . (word that rhymes with crass).''OK. I'm kidding. Then again, who knows? The above quote was stolen from humorist Andy Borowitz on the matter that's perplexed America: this constant stream of hugs, caresses of face, neck and hands and nonstop knee-rubbing that's become the signature of the nascent Kerry/Edwards campaign. What's the deal? Our...

Chronicling a campaign day is akin to panning for gold. The shiny nuggets that reporters prize are those rare moments of spontaneity discovered amid the dross of synthetic sound bites and predictable partisan platitudes. That's why the media stars of Wednesday's rollout of the Democratic ticket were the younger children of John and Elizabeth Edwards: Jack, a thumb-sucking, free-spirited, 4-year-old, and Emma Claire, a 6-year-old nervously pretending to be mature for the occasion. Jack and Emma Claire's antics were the one element in the political tableau that not even the most cynical Republican could believe was scripted. Running for president...

That's it! Marriage is under attack, similarly to freedom – and if you are not for protecting it, then you are for its destruction.
