Maury needs to have Edwards on his show.

i thought it was Zsa Zsa Gabors husband?

Old news...new to the left media but old news just the same.

No shit...

Edwards is the son of a textile mill floor worker and postal carrier. He was the first in his family to attend college. Calling him a member of the "elite ruling class" is absurd.

If I was writing about Wallace Reid Edwards you might have a legitimate grievance. But I wasn't. John Edwards was (an for some may still be) a Class 2 Liberal.

If Edwards is a member of the elite ruling class, he joined it at some point in his adult life because of the money he made.

So in your view, the elite ruling class is a meritocracy?

Even the DR needs its court jester. Dance monkey, dance!

We knew that for a long time now. He was the man of dem family values.

Get that bone out of your nose and answer the question, Zulu.

I don't care if Edwards fathered 100 bastard kids. I liked his humorous candidacy though, with his $400 haircuts and claims of hundreds of thousands of veterans sleeping under bridges. That "two Americas bullshit" was some funny stuff too. The "Breck Girl" was almost as funny as Algore and John Kerry.

'So in your view, the elite ruling class is a meritocracy?'

The demonstration of merit is not essential to Class 1 Liberals. So my answer would be no, the elite ruling Class 2 Liberals are not part of a meritocracy.

Interesting question though.

'Get that bone out of your nose and answer the question, Zulu.'

Sorry about the delay, I'll do my best to answer more promptly.

Edwards is such a loser.

You skipped a few things. His father was once a "floor worker", then got promoted up the chain, eventually becoming the mill's production manager.

IMHO, if you make it to the US Senate, you're in the "elite ruling class". At least they pretend to think so.

FTA: According to the newspaper, Young wrote that Edwards once told Hunter they would wed after Edwards' wife, who has cancer, died.

Edwards told Hunter that the ceremony would be held on a rooftop in New York and the Dave Matthews Bands would make an appearance,...

Already picked out the band fer yer wedding to yer mistress while yer wife with cancer is still alive?

Damn, that's cold.

So Young has come out and told us that Edwards is the father of Hunter's baby but Edwards himself still says nothing about it?

Wonder who he thinks he's fooling with that.

Be Well.

I mean really, he threw it all away for a skank like Rielle Hunter...

He donated semen. Time will tell if he "fathers" it or not.

Edwards had a love child.

I don't care.

This is not news.

While not a 'non-issue", this SHOULD be a 'trival' issue for purposes of election. (Edwards skimping out on SUPPORT of the child would have been more serious....)

I did not care that Bill liked (or perhaps 'likes') young women that 'smoke cigars'.

I view the attempted cover ups the two men made as foolish, and ONLY foolish, law be damned.

DOMESTICLY, both men are trash, and their WIVES have good cause to rake them over hellfire, but as for the rest of us, IT IS SIMPLY NOT A POLICY ISSUE.

Vote for or against someone on "expected" POLICY, or you are a fool.

Something like this does factor in however because it shows their commitment to commitment and how true they keep to their word. If they cheat on the mother of their children, then there is little reason not to expect them to cheat on the citizens of their country.

exactly. Do we not discuss how much our elected leaders are telling the truth? That their actions reflect their words? That they support policies that we consider "moral" and they represent our "values"??(of course, it has to reflect OUR values for it to have meaning)

Values
Work Ethic
Committment

I sure as hell wouldn't hire anybody to work for me who didn't posess those characteristics.

...or at leat someone who was successful at selling me on it.

well he did 'get above his raisin' then..
how much were those haircuts?
and all of those cases he won and got paid one third of the settlement 'bumped' him up

and none of that excuses his behaviour and then the coverup.
it would be interesting if he had won the white house. the media and people here would be slobbering all over themsleves making excuses and apologizing for him

Wasn't some republican house leader accused of that too? Seems like the dems made such a stink of it that he got out of the rotten business of politics.

Was it difficulty winning elections or difficulty pulling out? His wife's fight with cancer was not enough to stop this far-left lawyer. To invest in Trojans, or not to invest in Trojans? That is the question.

Hell, he can take his sunken treasure with his sunken-ass soul.

He is scum. He has a fabulous Wife and He couldn't stop thinking about screwing Her over?? What utter and complete bullshit. He needs nuetured now.

Larry

The pretty pony---ahhhhhh...

Now maybe he'll be busted for paying hush money from the campaign or lying about it to the grand jury.

You righties cant find anything more to bitch about than Ewards got a shot of ass? pathetic

Where's the family values king, Vitter when you need him?

Zulu, Did your Mama drop you when you were a baby or are you were you born stupid?

I'm not a republican but I will B**** about it!

Shame on Edwards!

Cheating on his wife was bad enough, but then it also appears he inappropriately used funds he shouldn't have to keep this child's father a secret.

People do make mistakes but they also need to be consequences for them.

My heart breaks for Edwards wife and children.
