379 posts and not a single quote of what Whoopie actually said.
Original article doesnt say either (though they must know since their reporting on it).

Gold star and 10 points for anyone posting what she actually said 8)

How many babies have you had?
Not everyone is genetically disposed to be model thin, and most of us have the BRAINS not to try to emulate it by starving ourselves and sticking our fingers down our throats.

I guess I struck a nerve. Taking this a bit too personally?

[Tall_Texan]

It would probably be deleted if it were posted. From what I gather, she continually refered to "bush" as in the hair found due north of the fun zone. That's about all I need to know.

[SendShaqtoIraq]

Nope, I just think it takes a lot of gall for someone who can never go thru the experience of pregnancy to condemn someone for something that can't be helped.

Your body build is genetic. It doesn't matter how little I weigh, I still have a big butt and big thighs. The ONLY thing that appears smaller is my bust.

I thought it had been posted earlier, here ya go:

But she also produced a few embarrassed grimaces with an unsubtle anatomical double-entendre enjoining voters to "keep Bush where it belongs and not in the White House."

Well, this tells us all we need to know about her, doesn't it?

[Not A Snowbird]

OMG, that is sick!!! If they're after the gay vote they can stop already, they've got it.

Liz Edwards appears to be John Edwards "Dorian Gray."

[tertiary01]

Maybe Miss Liz is really a victim... of her husband's success in court. There was a thread a couple of days ago, how lawyers are being denied non emergency health care by physicians.
Perhaps she has tried to obtain plastic surgery Botox or lipo suction and has been turned down for fear of lawsuits by her hubby? It seems strange that most of the top Dems' wives have had obvious plastic surgery. Can you imagine what Theresa would look like if she hadn't had her skin tightened or Botoxed? Hillary obviously had modifications to her facial features prior to Bill's bid, and Chelsea's recent renovation has her looking like she is right out of Petticoat Junction.

C'mon you guys - I am gonna sound like Pollyanna here, but I think the people of this forum are of higher calibre than the Whoopi's of the world....

Edwards' wife hasn't said much to take offense at YET, but let's give her time and we can attack the content or lack of it in her words, rather than her physical characteristics.

There are too many brains floating around here to dabble in who is skinny and who is a chub.

I apologize if I sound snooty...because I know I do.... but as I say you guys are better than what I've read here.

Waaaaaaaaaay better.

Bump so I can read every comment when I have time.

The best part of this short article is the last sentence:

After sitting through the vulgar performance, Sen. Edwards told the crowd, "This campaign will be a celebration of real American values."

[Mercat]

Ok, I'm fluffy too but with that much money, I would have better hair and probably a bit of a nip and tuck. But all that aside, the good question is, was her teenage daughter there? If yes and Liz wasn't uncomfortable, then I don't want her taking Mrs. Cheney's place. (don't want it anyway but this is another reason)

Here's a much more detailed article from the NY Post. Both Kerry and Edwards attended the VULGAR event, produced by Harvey Weinstein of Miramax (Michael Moore's producer).

JERKY JOKESTER WHOOPI IN DIRTY DISS AT DUBYA
http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/24791.htm

July 9, 2004 -- Whoopi Goldberg delivered an X-rated rant full of sexual innuendoes against President Bush last night at a Radio City gala that raised $7.5 million for the newly minted Democratic ticket of John Kerry and John Edwards.
< snip >
Kerry could be seen laughing uproariously during part of Goldberg's tirade - and neither he nor Edwards voiced a single objection to its tone when they spoke to the crowd.
< snip >
They hailed the fund-raiser as a great event.

Edwards said it was "a great honor" to be there and insisted, "This campaign will be a celebration of real American values."

Kerry thanked all the performers for "an extraordinary evening," hailed the "great producers" - Harvey Weinstein of Miramax and Jann Wenner - and said "every performer tonight ... conveyed to you the heart and soul of our country."

ROFLMAO!!!!!

[miss marmelstein]

Hey, did anybody notice her son sucks his thumb? A sure sign of a neurotic disorder! That said, this chick is going to have to glam up before November. It's one thing to be overweight (who is not?) but another to wear ill-fitting pant suits. Yuck!

[Dustbunny]

There are handsome men and pretty men.

Unfortuantely neither applies to Kerry or Edwards.

No let that fugly woman talk and talk some more, I want America to see the danger that lies within,
