Oh, goody. Another $5 trillion of taxpayer money will be spent, with little to show for it.
Don't all the great campaigns get their start in Wisconsin?
Reporting facts, a quaint concept from some by-gone era.
LOL, another "Ingrate Society" program from the scumbag Democrats?
How much this time? $500 trillion?
Coming from a guy living in a house with a tax value of $2,385,373 reads more like lip service than anything else.
And then there's his beach house........
Trolling for votes and pandering in Beer Town.
Do what? Spend $7 trillion and everything remains the same?
And the farm in Chapel Hill.
Excellent. Using big government and taxes to do what the supporters suggest is just a way for do-gooders and busybodies to feel good about themselves whilst spending somebody else's money.
That was the farm. Does he still have his Raleigh house?
edwards is as dumb as carter and lbj.
Just checked, He still owns the Raleigh house. Tax Value on that one is $985,090. The man is really connected to impoverished America.
Speaking of American poverty, a friend of mine just returned from a trip to China to visit his son who is teaching there in a small town of 260,000.
My friend says living conditions in American poverty would be considered wealth in China.
I'm sure a lot of the "little people," aka "the great unwashed masses," work to take care of those four places, don't you?
Gee, John, are you really planning to recall all those outsourced jobs? Way to go!
Umm..Okay, John, but first: what is your exit plan for this War on Poverty?
If John Edwards was so concerned about ending poverty, he'd start a business and hire some poor people to run it. Oh wait, he's spent his whole life *taking* money from businesses. Never mind.
I remember the illegal immigrant from Mexico who was asked why he wanted so badly to be in the US. He replied that he wanted to live where poor people are fat.
Johnson left behind an entire generation of poor people enslaved by a system to encouraged laziness, encouraged family breakups, encouraged unwed motherhood, and discouraged fatherhood by replacing fathers with a welfare state. It was Newt Gingrich and the end of welfare as we know it that helped poor people rise from idleness and poverty.
What poor?
What poverty?
In September, he announced a scholarship program in Greene County (NC) for students living in poverty to cover expenses at a state university for the first year.
In October, Fortress Investment Group LLC announced he will be serving as a senior adviser on global economic issues and
launched a 10 university campus tour for "Opportunity Rocks"-a nationwide program targeted at getting college students involved in the fight against poverty.
Edwards started the tour at UNC-CH (Erskine Bowles is now President
of the UNC System, that is; )
