RUSH: An update on the John Edwards situation out in Los Angeles broken by the National Enquirer. Two interesting things here: "A hotel security guard at the Beverly Hilton told FoxNews.com that he intervened this week between a man he identified as [the Breck Girl] and tabloid reporters who chased down the former presidential hopeful after what they're calling a rendezvous with his mistress and love child. The Beverly Hilton hotel guard said he encountered a shaken and ashen-faced [Breck Girl] who he did not immediately recognize in a hotel men's room early Tuesday morning about 2:30 and was in a literal tug-of-war with reporters on the other side of the door." The Breck Girl was trying to keep the door closed, and the reporters trying to get it open! Man, it's just hilarious to picture this. Somehow he barricades the bathroom door, starts combing his hair getting ready for his eventual exit but has to call hotel security on his cell phone to come get him.
"The guard at the Beverly Hilton hotel said, 'His face was just totally white.' When Edwards was told the reporters were shouting out questions about Edwards and [this babe] that the Enquirer says is the mother of his child, the guard said he escorted Edwards -- who was not a registered guest at the hotel, by the way -- out of the building after 2:00 a.m. "Edwards didn't say anything after he was escorted out, adding at times the reporters on the scene were rough on him, sticking a camera in his face and shouting questions." Anyway, there's been a criminal complaint filed now by the reporters. Two reporters in the Enquirer have filed a criminal complaint against Edwards because of the way they were treated at the hotel.
Edwards was not a guest. They were registered and they were kicked out while Edwards was escorted out. The plot thickens. The Los Angeles Times has instructed its bloggers that they are not to discuss this. They are not to write about this. They are not to post anything at all about the Breck Girl and the Beverly Hilton hotel being nabbed at 2:40 in the morning. You heard me right. The LA Times' editors have told bloggers at the LA Times there will be no posts on this. Business Week magazine, BusinessWeek magazine yesterday ran a story on why the Drive-Bys are not covering it, five reasons. BusinessWeek! The media is telling us why they aren't covering it.
A, he's not a presidential candidate; B, he's probably not high on the list of vice presidential committees; he is being thought of possibly for attorney general. Nobody, nobody involved in the thing has accused him of anything. They're coming up with all kinds of excuses. Since when n does this stuff matter, all these reasons not to report on it? Why does it not matter? It's because it's a Democrat, because he's a liberal Democrat. That's why I think the Breck Girl, this is a resume enhancement, for crying out loud! Do you know how many people if they, if this were actually confirmed, would not believe it? And they think, "Way to go, man! We didn't know you that way. Cool." These are enhancements in the Democrat Party. These are resume enhancements for Democrats.
Funny. The Breck girl always hid behind the cover of his sick wife. He even let his sick wife do the knee capping for him. This is how he repays her.
politicians...sick wives...Uh....seems like there was another story like this...hmmm....wonder who else had a sick wife that was treated wrong...oh well...guess it doesn’t matter...
Obama/EDWARDS ‘08!
It’s getting out there. The Fox News hourly update on the local Rush radio station led with the story this afternoon.
Edwards, as despicable a verminous crooked little weasel as ever befouled the earth, is HYSTERICALLY FUNNY in this tawdry story.
The image of Edwards in a tug of war in the toilet at 2AM with a gang of reporters on the other side of the door? ROTFLMAO! You can’t make this stuff up.
I would also point out the complete dishonesty of the LA Slimes and the rest of the phony baloney drive-by media. Edward’s bathroom festivities are off limits but every detail of Larry Craig’s toilet tap dancing are examined ad nauseum!
QUESTION? How did a number of reporters from the nat. Enq.know to check into the B.H hotel and be just hanging out with their cameras @ 2:30 in the am? Either they have tapped his phone/email or someelse who has a history of such things did and tipped the reporters. Now who would want to ruin his chances @ vp? Who would have that kind of vile determination? Hmmmm?
They have apparently been following the woman for quite a while.
He’s probably drafted and sent on to barry, his updated resume.
This is going to knock coverage of both candidates off the front page. Who wants to read about Barack Obama or John MacCain when they can have the latest on the Breck Girl’s escapades?
Gee, didn’t MSM credit NE when they reported on Rush’s oxycontin story?
We are so screwed.
and they just happen to be staying in the beverly hills hotel? If you remember Bob Bennett the clintons attorney is also the main lawfirm for the enquirer.
The bigger story is how they got the story.
As I heard it, they had a tail of the woman and possibly their enquiring minds found out that she was booked into the BHH and booked rooms for themselves.
Not exactly rocket science.
The basic point is that the reporters and photographers were registered at the hotel - the breck girl was not.
Might you be thinking of John Sidney McCain?
Shouldn’t Harry Reid go after John Edwards for polygamy? Well, shouldn’t he?
Probably. The Dims will leave no stone unturned, including tossing one of their own under the bus, to make an opening.
I agree.
