John and Elizabeth Edwards Celebrate Anniversary at Wendy's--Joined by the Kerrys (pics)
Washington Post ^

TOWN OF NEWBURGH, N.Y., July 31 -- John and Elizabeth Edwards celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary today, and they and this small upstate town will not soon forget it.

The John Kerry campaign pulled its 10-bus caravan up to Wendy's restaurant to accommodate the vice presidential couple, who had their first date at the fast-food restaurant and always dine there on their anniversary . This is not one they will soon forget because the celebration included John and Teresa Heinz Kerry, Tom Brokaw, George Stephanopoulos, and 100 members of the media.

"So you understand, this is our anniversary. We always celebrate our anniversary at Wendy's," Elizabeth Edwards told the clerk as she ordered her Classic Combo Single.

Ditto for her mate -- but he went with cheese. And John Kerry went for the Chili and chocolate frosty. The power couples certainly caused a stir -- but it was Ben Affleck who moved with a throng. A Democrat and friend of Kerry's, the movie actor said he joined the trip to learn about the political process and not always be around just for the glamorous work.

Seriously, Ben Affleck? Does Kerry know how well his tru nature was revealed during his relationship with JLO? Truth will out. A putz is a putz...oh wait, that's what they have in common.

Long nails on one hand might mean he's a guitar player. . .

I don't know why the guy is called Been Afflicted-considering the company he is keeping, he's still Afflicted.

The consensus opinion regarding guitar palyer hands is that the nails are either clipped short on one hand or both. If the nails are long -- they are long and SHAPED on the plucking hand only. Most players use the right hand to pluck.

See for example: The Total Classical Guitar Method (tm) Care and Shaping of the [Guitarist's] Finger Nails

Why do the Dimocrats always look half retarded and ugly?

So Jerry Springer can have them as guests on his show.

The Edwards with $40-80 million in assets always celebrate their anniversary with dinner at Wendys? That's BS, I'm sure.

So..... were the little people properly impressed by this display of very wealthy democrats at a Wendy's?

"Soft plush hands on a man (lazy) grosses me out."


"Ahh, you've never known the love of a baker. Too bad for you."


Oh yeah how could I forget, the other thing that grosses me out is a man who is endlessly conceited and flatters himself foolishly. Major yuck factor. (smirk)

Dolly Parton has extra long finger nails and yet plays guitar. Her guitar , I have heard, is tuned up in such a way that she can use all bar chords.

I love seeing all this publicity for Wendy's by the Left. Only "Air America" hosts seem to be mentioning it, but Wendy's is one of the largest corporate donors to PRO-LIFE causes in the United States. The late Dave Thomas gave millions to pro-life organizations and politicians. Gotta love the irony. The "Unfiltered" AirAmerica crew is livid over this "anti-choice" support by the Dem ticket.
