March 2006 issue, page 117, "The 50 Wealthiest Bostonians" .. "John Kerry may be America's wealthiest senator, with an estimated personal fortune of at least $ 164,000,000..." (Maria Theresa herself is worth between $ 750 million and $1 billion +). Can anyone tell me how someone born with no money, who got a BCD from the Navy, and who has never held a job outside of government could have made over $ 160 million?

From: "John Kerry" Date: 2005/08/08 Mon PM 02:19 EDT To: ___________@cox.net Subject: Rove Republicans on the run? Dear Friend, They tried to put a brave public face on. But, as they gathered in Pittsburgh this past weekend, GOP leaders and campaign strategists couldn't hide the fact that they've got their political backs to the wall. Yes, there was lots of energy at the meeting, but it was the nervous energy of panicked politicians and operatives who know their luck is running out. Last week, Democrat Paul Hackett, a political newcomer and Iraqi combat veteran, came within 4,600 votes of winning...

THE women who flock to Dr Kim Myong-gan’s clinic in a western suburb of Tokyo are desperate. Invariably they are well-dressed, intelligent and from outwardly stable and normal households.There is, however, something very important missing from their married lives: sex. "Almost all the women who come to the clinic are married, but those marriages have been sexless for five years, 10 years, even 15 years," says Kim, a sexologist whose radical therapy techniques have won him adulation among Japan’s long-suffering female population. The prescription for their pain is a date with a member of his hand-picked "sex volunteer corps". A...

Tall, handsome and broad-shouldered, Pete is a constant target for real-life desperate housewives who are financially well-kept yet sexually neglected by workaholic husbands. ---snip--- "If I wanted to pursue it I'd probably [have sex] once a week," he tells The Post. ---snip--- "Scarsdale and these towns are rampant with it.

John Kerry said Sunday that he's "outraged" that anyone would think the re-emergence of Osama bin Laden on a terror video released Friday may hurt his chances in next Tuesday's election. "I'm outraged that he has appeared," Kerry told ABC News anchor Peter Jennings. "I'm outraged that he inserts himself in any kind of way into the electoral process of America." Asked about comments from both his campaign and team Bush suggesting that the bin Laden tape gives the president a big boost in the closing days of the campaign, Kerry told Jennings, "I think it's unfortunate that anybody puts...

“Married Up” – Kerry’s Blundering Reagan Rip-off As we all know, President Reagan passed away this summer. In the multitude of heartfelt remembrances and eulogies, Brian Mulroney, former Primer Minister of Canada, related this story: President Reagan had spoken to Parliament, handled complex files with skill and good humor -- strongly impressing his Canadian hosts -- and here we were, waiting for our wives. When their car drove in a moment later, out stepped Nancy and Mila -- looking like a million bucks. As they headed towards us, President Reagan beamed, threw his arm around my shoulder and said with...

In the beginning, I was scared about having sex with my clients. I was a shy, overweight kid and didn't go to the prom, so I didn't have much confidence at first. Then I got this physique and I discovered that I had this ability to charm women, and I made up for lost time. When I was 17, I put my first ad in a small paper, saying I was looking for clients to train. I had just won Mr. Bodybuilding Teenage New York State, and in my ad I was looking lean and ripped. The first day a...

CHICAGO - This afternoon, Leader Media President Dan Proft announced that IllinoisLeader.com plans to file suit to obtain Massachusetts' Senator John Kerry's, the presumptive Democrat nominee for President, sealed divorce records from his first marriage to Julia Thorne which was later annulled. "The Chicago Tribune and a Los Angeles Family Court judge have established a new standard for the release of marital and custodial documents," said Proft referring to the recent Jack Ryan decision.

Presidential Candidate Has Experienced Financial Scrapes, Transient Lifestyle WASHINGTON -- John Kerry is often attacked by political opponents for being a wealthy, out-of-touch elitist. But while he is quite wealthy, and has never been without at least a comfortable income and lifestyle, the presumptive Democratic nominee has experienced broader swings between the high life and pedestrian money concerns than the caricature suggests. Indeed, from about 1984 through 1995, in between his marriages to two wealthy women and during his first years in the Senate, the father of two stretched dollars from paycheck to paycheck and borrowed money to cover tuition...

Two flights are due into Montego Bay Airport, one from Toronto, the other from London. Clinton waits on the beach for the new arrivals, hoping that one of them will bring him good fortune. "I look for the milk bottles," he says, explaining how ultra-white skin is a giveaway, "the ones who've just arrived. Milk bottles that need filling ..." Negril, with its 11-kilometre stretch of pristine sand and turquoise sea, attracts the majority of Jamaica's 1.3 million tourists every year, primarily from the United States, Canada and Europe.

Where would we be without Teresa Heinz? The fantastically rich, wildly candid wife of Sen. John Kerry is the only compelling figure so far in a presidential race that otherwise threatens to be devoid of color, drama, and really chewable stories. But "compelling" doesn't begin to capture the unmuzzled abandon, the compulsive, almost imperial determination to say and do as she pleases -- in short, the bottomless newsiness that this woman brings to virtually every encounter she has with the big-time political media. Mrs. Heinz Kerry -- in a rare concession to the practical realities of politics, she recently added...
