9. Happy birthday, Sen. Kerry!

And many thanks to beachmom and all the others who've uploaded these great photos on this thread.
Thinking back to the political mindset (and I use the term loosely) in 2004, the commentary then was so SILLY .. people commenting , for instance, on the newness of JK's LL Bean jacket .that it was too "elite". :wtf: Are any of these people embarrassed now by the these comments, I hope? They should be.

Love those baby pictures. Like I always say, babies are smart. Too bad they don't vote. They would have saved us at least 4 years of Bush hell.
