From Michelle Malkin's blog [edited for DUmmie vulgarities]:

ELIZABETH EDWARDS COUNSELS THE MOONBATS

By Michelle Malkin · April 27, 2005 10:54 AM

Sen. John Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, is a frequent commenter in the far-left fever swamps of the Democratic Underground discussion forum.

Yesterday, Mrs. Edwards surfaced on a DU thread about conservative radio talk show hostess extraordinaire Laura Ingraham, who underwent surgery yesterday for breast cancer. (Hat tip: Reader Eddie.) When the DUers started spewing their usual bile and wishing ill on Ingraham, Mrs. Edwards (a breast cancer survivor herself) tried to intervene:

I have been a Democrat for a long time, and part of the Democratic principles that attracted me as a young person and kept me a Democrat all these years is our compassion. Democrats are simply good and decent people. And good and decent people want everyone to do well -- those who agree with them and those who do not. We fight for the right of voices with which we disagree to speak out, for the right of people to say things we don't believe to be true, even for the right to be malicious and mean-spirited. If we fight for the right for LI to say what she says, how in the world can we use our disagreement with those words as an excuse not to be compassionate in her fight with cancer. Being willing to have her voice muted by illness is the same thing as not wanting her voice to be heard. It is not Democratic or democratic.
It was an admirable attempt by Mrs. Edwards to stop the ugliness--though she then goes on to criticize conservatives for their lack of compassion. A few commenters applauded Mrs. Edwards. And then it was back to spewing as usual:

She probably gave it to herself...

I don't pray for Nazis or other Totalitarian Scum

I hope she goes into remission and f***ing chokes to death.

And those were the ones that didn't get deleted.

This is great! Pied Piper Pitt is pissed at DUmmie UNdie for draining DUmmie money away from him on what he knows to be a scam while DUmmie Undie's fundraising shill is attacking Pitt for being MIA. The end result will be to create a lot of ill will towards Pitt and his efforts to scam $$$ out of the DUmmies for his new PDA racket.
