When is Big Media going to give Edwards the anal exam that they have used on every Republican candidate for President and Vice-president?

Last night on Special Report with Brit Hume, they mentioned that Edward's father, rather than being a "millworker" was the superintendent. He was in upper management!!!

Poor? Bullshit.

According to Edwards' web site's biography, "John Edwards was born in Seneca, South Carolina and raised in Robbins, North Carolina, a small town in the Piedmont. There John learned the values of hard work and perseverance from his father, Wallace, who worked in the textile mills for 36 years, and from his mother, Bobbie, who ran a shop and worked at the post office. Working alongside his father at the mill, John developed his strong belief that all Americans deserve an equal opportunity to succeed and be heard."

Will someone please check out his "home" in Robbins, NC, and see just how much of a "poor" neighborhood it was?

Did he have siblings? Or was he an only child, with parents working three jobs? And they were "poor"? Bullshit.

And will someone please ask him just what his father's job was? And did his daddy get him a job at the "mill", and just what was that job? Did he "work his way through college" via a job that his daddy got him?

Big Media is giving this guy a free ride.

I heard last night that Lindsay Graham was also born in Seneca, SC, two years after Edwards. I've never heard the media gush about Lindsay Graham coming from poverty, and getting into law through the military.
