...ambition and blind ambition.
The revelation???
He was EXACTLY what I thought he was.
Finally, we found a democrat who isn't opposed to drilling.
That's domestic drilling, too!
...this is the kind of guy the dems trotted out for President, and lauded him. The drive-by press, who HAD to know about this all along, gagged the story, along with all the other stuff in this guys past.
In this new age of information, we can actually get a benefit from the blogs who are willing to out this guy, defeating the liberal media propaganda arm of the dem party.
enjoy.
Mrs. Edwards has made the best comment on this matter. Both her and Mrs. Clinton are amazing women. Leaving politics aside, who is perfect, and if you are, then, you will never need to ask for forgiveness.
Then again, perfect people are not very well liked.
Smear not, for in the way you smear, so will you be smeared.
...can we move on now?
Let's just pretend he disappeared in a puff of smoke - never to be seen running for a public office again. He has joined the list of liars and deceivers.
Elibabeth Edwards and Hillary - amazing women or just plain stupid???
Edwards is dead in the water. Enough
And EssPees'dad porked a pig resulting in the f*cked up moron with the trash mouth that needs an enema. The question being, where to stick the hose. In his butt or his left ear. Yes, do move on EssPee. Move far, far away. Kabul sounds good. Tehran sounds better.
SP a trash mouth? - Sounds like he's got a twin!
Maybe his wife wants to forgive his cheating, lying, sneaking around with this lowlife, possibly having a child with her, but the public doesn't have to!
did sp4's mother have any kids that lived?
...you little juveniles need to run right upstairs out of the basement, then get your your mommy, who is about 10 years older than you are, to send your three black 'stepfathers' out of her bedroom, get her to come down and write a response for you, the moment she learns to write in english.
And, by all means, get back to us!
for giving us a good example of someone that speaks english???? I think???

It would benice if you could learn how to 'write in english'. What a friggin idiot!
And all along I thought this article was about Edwards - how stupid of me!
Is it just me, or does Edwards look creepier each time he does an interview?
...what I always thought he was:
Empty Shirted, totally handled, made-up, disingenuous, walking talking political libnazi calculation. If you look close, you can see the strings tied to his arms, legs and head. (both of them)
He actually reminds me, a little, of Barak.
Cute - but not what I meant. His good looks have slowly evaporated into a sneaky-looking cheater.
From all reports that Elizabeth knew about the affair two years ago, and still joined her husband in continuing to campaign for presidential candidate doesn't bode well for her ethics and the Democrat Party. She needs to be held accountable as well!
...do you think that she might have felt a little trapped....?
Perhaps - but it wasn't going to go away - duh! She had plenty of time to decide not to go along with him. It would have been so much worse if he had won the election, then it would have come out to bite his butt bigtime. She should have left him anyway!
..the poor woman was SICK...get it?...perhaps she thought she really needed him...you know.....?
Perhaps he really had a moment of clarity when she got sick....like he really felt terrible and wanted to reconcile....this happens to men and women when they have something like this happen...they change....
This woman was already fighting cancer when he decided he wanted his fun time - she needed this like another hole in her head. Oh, that's right, he said he 'did it' while her cancer was in remission, so that really excuses him!! Sounds like he really changed ok, he's still sneaking around for his little extracurricular activity!
It's been pointed out that she probably stayed with him because she didn't want to leave her little children in a divorce situation since her life expectancy isn't great. What a terrible burden this man has put on his loyal wife just for his selfish pleasure! All the trauma Elizabeth has been through with everything that is associated with this 'mistake' will probably cause her ability to fight this cancer to falter. NOTHING he could ever do could make up for this.
No one thinks this guy is more plastic than me, but guys do wierd stuff when their lives are coming apart, and when your wife is dying, you really do lose your objectivity. His covering in the press is pretty normal, and I expect him to do that. he did f--k up, strictly speaking, but I do actually feel for him and his wife. I hate to see couples go through this.
HE'S the one who f**ked up all the way around - don't make excuses. His wife needed the sympathy for suffering her cancer, not his 'poor me' attitude! It basically showed how weak he was.
Maybe it will come out that he IS the father of his girlfriend's baby, and that she WAS paid hush money, but the bottom line is that he will have to live with this ultimate betrayal to a loyal wife, who, do doubt, will not survive for very many more years. He has disappointed so many, including his children, and his conscience (if he actually has one, and somehow that's questionable) should cause him life-long misery.
...he's a dick, no one disputes that, not even the worst libnazi apologist, but I hold no ill will towards the man's wife, no matter how she's acted.
but she should have been smart enough to know this was going to get out and in a big way, especially if he won the nomination. It probably would have gone much better when it was first discovered, and he could have withdrawn rather than deceive so many people who will never forgive or forget. She has probably spent the last couple of years struggling to go along with his lie to the public, and it couldn't have helped her condition.
when he will stop the lying about his new baby and the hush money???
...and Edwards:
They do not think the rules apply to them. They have spent their lives in public service, never having done a real job, with a softball libnazi drive-by press who gags stuff like this for them at every turn, while flaying a Conservative Senator for touching someone's foot in a bathroom.
In my home state, the former libnazi standard bearer Governor, Neil Goldschmidt, diddled a 14 year-old girl, who's mom worked on his staff, so he knew where she was in the daytime, has numerous folks who knew it, and the major daily in the state gagged it for 25 years!
I mean, he had a DRIVER, who took him over there repeatedly, and HE became Sheriff! Then the driver began 'driving' Goldschmidts wife, because he had someone else he was servicing, ostensibly with lolli-pop in hand, and so he stepped up and drove Miss Daisy!
Now, with the blogs, it is almost impossible to avoid this, but these guys are so inured to this they keep going on like no one will find out. It really speaks to a person who would be President as to how they delude themselves on the simplest of concepts, but their followers insist on how they have such a terrific bead on reality.
It's not only the top dogs who are at fault, but the lemmings who bow down and kiss the ground they walk on, be it Repubs or Dems, conservative or not. It's their disgusting lack of judgement that makes them a danger to the public.
