| Kerry, Soros to Wed |
| 2004-04-01 |
| The Brothers Judd indulge their impish sense of humor in honor of 4/01 . . . . John Kerry’s presidential campaign announced today that the [haughty, French-looking] Massachusetts Senator [who once served in Vietnam] (60) plans to wed financier George Soros (74) in Boston on May 23, 2004. After the marriage, the couple expects to take a long honeymoon in Europe, returning in time for the Democratic convention in Boston in June. This announcement came as a surprise to the Boston political community. Mr. Kerry is currently married to Teresa Heinz Kerry, heiress to the Heinz ketchup fortune. Although there were no rumors of trouble in the marriage, sources in the Kerry campaign say that Ms. Heinz has agreed to move to Africa and obtain an immediate divorce. In a prepared statement, Senator Kerry said: "I thank Teresa for her understanding and my heart goes out to her at this difficult time. However, I just find George five times more attractive." . . . Senator Kerry’s campaign denied that this marriage represented a change in the Senator’s position on gay marrage. "The Senator continues to oppose a federal constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, supports a state constitutional amendment banning gay marriage and intends to engage in a gay marriage. These are not nuanced positions -- we absolutely defy anyone to find any wiggle room in the Senator’s positions." Nevertheless, the Kerry campaign wasted no time in preemptively striking back at the Bush campaign for attacking Senator Kerry’s personal life. "The Bush campaign’s snide insinuations concerning Senator Kerry’s engagement will feed not one person, will create not one job, will not pay for a single doctor’s appointment and doesn’t change the Senator’s long history of defending this country, including in Vietnam." . . . |
