No he's not.

[Shryke]

VERY descriptive post. You win the new member "red meat" post award of the day.

[standupfortruth]

And now we know how he plans on healing paraplegics..........

[tallhappy]

A little bit more info would be nice.

It is absurd.

Edwards says Kerry as President will heal the paralyzed.

They will get up out of their wheel chairs and walk!!!

Can a candidate sink any lower?

Benny Hinn is their new consultant and will be Surgeon general.

[geege]

And idiots believe them....scarey

[Prolifeconservative]

"Benny Hinn is their new consultant and will be Surgeon general."

LOL!!!! That's good stuff!

I can't figure out why Bush hasn't used this against the Kerry campaign. I took my parents out to dinner over the weekend. They support Bush, but didn't really have anything against Kerry. When I told them about Edwards' amazing ability to channel the spirits of disabled children, they were very angry. My dad was wondering why we haven't seen this in the news. I would think calling attention to this would really help the Bush campaign.

This guy is truly a scumbag

The next headline will be EDWARDS SUES REEVES DOCTORS FOR NOTMAKING HIM WALK. In the next breath, he will say that he and Kerry have a plan for tort reform.

Been posted twice before.

[maine-iac7]

is there anyway to find out the settlement figures of that case Edwards had:

Campbell v. Pitt County Hospital?

or any others.

I think people would be shocked to see how much the lawyers get from the winnings - up to 60% - and then take out the fed income taxes - levied on the entire amount and see how small a part - is any - some end up still owing taxes! = that the victim gets.
This would show people who REALLY benefits from these lawsuits.

If he means dead people are going to get up and vote, I'm sure he's right.

[silverleaf]

I John Edwards, have a sixth sense....I see.....democrat people. They're all around me. Sometimes they talk to me. And they don't even know they're .... idiots.

[SF Republican]

Wow, they can raise the dead?

[silverleaf]

No, if Kerry is elected, Ernest Angley will be the surgeon general.

[pankot]

Good one. Since Reeve is "sleeping with the fishes" Kerry must be the Second Coming. Either that or Kerry "has a plan".

[Republican Red]

Charles Krauthammer, last night on FNC Special Report, commented on this Edwards quote. Krauthammer is himself a quadriplegic and a doctor. He called Edwards comment the worst political rhetoric he has ever heard.

Mort Kondracke was trying to take up for Edwards, or rather stem cell research but Krauthammer kept commenting on Edwards. He also made mention of the fact that it is not funding that is holding back stem cell research but science. Krauthammer was horrified at Edwards.

I think he's assuming that dead people who can vote can also walk.
