The wife of vice presidential hopeful John Edwards is defending Whoopi Goldberg after the potty-mouthed comedienne attacked President Bush with an X-rated monologue at Thursday night's Kerry-Edwards fundraiser in New York.

Rejecting calls for her husband's campaign to apologize for Goldberg's outburst, Mrs. Edwards said Friday that the anti-Bush tirade was justified.

"A lot of people are going to be angry - there's a lot to be angry about," she told reporters at a fundraising breakfast on Manhattan's West side. "It's a free country and people are going to express that anger."

Now that Ms. Edwards has opened her mouth and defended the vile slurs at GWB, she is now a part of the Democratic campaign and is thus fair game.

[Lijahsbubbe]

Bonnie, you are a class person.

[Vigilantcitizen]

She's so fat...she has a "I'm backing up" warning beeper.

"I was actually feeling bad that some were making fun of MS. Edwards on the NC board because I'm on the "fluffy" side myself. "

Fluffy? LOL. That reminds me of what my 87 year old (sweet little country lady) says when she sees someone overweight...'fleshy' is what she calls them.

"I really have never seen such hate and stupity coming from the left..they are insane."

Yup.

"A lot of people are going to be angry - there's a lot to be angry about," she told reporters at a fundraising breakfast on Manhattan's West side. "It's a free country and people are going to express that anger."

LOL...Oh yeah, I can see how adding the Edwards' to the ticket is going to help in the South! Keep talking Elizabeth, please just keep talking.

"What is John Edwards doing with a frump like that?". Now this is not that that odd, because I have seen plenty of politicians, young and handsome, with very frumpy wives? What gives?

It's called "till death do us part", or - in the Clintons case - spousal immunity. At least give Edwards credit for not pulling a McCain or a Newt.

"Did John Edwards serve in Vietnam? He is 51."

Nope. In fact, he was never in the military, although he may have had a GI Joe doll when he was in college.

I am going to agree with that ,she said she's ok with vugaritys directed toward the President so she has now entered the game.

[awelliott]

She didn't look so bad 27 years ago...

Agreed. However she's aging like fine milk....

re: At least give Edwards credit for not pulling a McCain or a Newt.)))

This is why I think the angle can be worked--because it's very true, what you said. It also reflects a bit on the Gigolo.

However, it reeks of patronization, as if the Breck Girl is making a marital sacrifice. I love it. Let me tell you, it's tough to handle.

So much for the devout Bible study-attending, churchgoing image of both of them, John and Elizabeth Edwards.

That's the comparison that needs to be advertised. Straight from the John's cesspool.

It is very typical. Pretty boys don't do well with girls.

You need to understand that to look "pretty" you have to be feminine. Feminine men do poorly with females.

The Pretty boys generally end up with one of two types of females. The first is what Kerry got... a fat girl whose looks and attitude limited her choices. The other type of female Pretty Boys get are those with Lesbian tendencies. The lesbian leaning female is attracted to "pretty" just like men are.

Clinton is a lot of things... bad.. but he is a man.. Put Billy Boy in a contest with Edwards for 10 females and William the conquerer will get 9 of them. Edwards would only get the 10th one because she was tired of waiting her turn with Bill. (Bill would take them in pretty order.. and pretty more often than not pretty)

"Is it OK NOW if we poke fun at Her Porkness?"

Sure, go ahead. Make sure you get in touch with Dick Cheney so he can include a couple of zingers in his upcoming debates. You know - things like 'yeh we have a deficit, but your wife is a lard ass', followed by a F' yourself. Great wy to win the votes of the vast majority of mid-American females (large % of whom are reported to be a bit on the 'plus' side).
How about a few lines about the kids being ugly too. How about the family pets? Nothing like having a 'meaty' discussion of the issues - great way to win friends & influence people.
Have at it!!!

ps - your recent FRmail to me is now considered inoperative

[eyespysomething]

OK, when I saw her at profile last night for the first time, I did say to my husband, "She's got a big butt".

[b4its2late]

They should simply "Shut Up And Sing", as Laura would say.

Class

No Class

[sinkspur]

Who's asking Cheney to do it?

But if the Democrat Party wants to get into the sewer, we can have a little fun at Lizzie's expense, especially if she thinks it's just dandy to get down into the sewer.

[Howlin]

Were that the case, I would set aside the time and energy required to get the job done.

Um, she already did that.
