A NATIONAL ENQUIRER investigation has uncovered John Edwards’ mistress, Rielle Hunter – the mother of his “love child” – has been secretly receiving $15,000 a month as part of an elaborate cover-up...

"The Edwards campaign better start looking at its backup plan of claiming Nathan Lane is the father."
No woman wants to be shamed like this, especially if she has children with the man who is doing the shaming.
If Elizabeth "wanted" him to do this, he and Rielle would not be meeting on the sly in hotels.
Edwards did that, not your photoshop job.
Unfortunately Fox doesn’t get much more credit, but I really find it real hard to believe that they are lying about what was said by the security guards on duty that night, who went in to some detail about Edwards, his appearance and what he was asking them.
All I care is that it keeps him from being AG, because he would be an absolute disaster.
it is to them. He is extremely wealthy, and depending on how household finances are set up, he could very well have accounts she does not have access to.
i should clarify, in any event, that I think his wife has to have known about this as well. It isn’t a sustainable deception.
the enquirer covers stuff about pols that others will not.
Years ago, they had a piece about hillary throwing things at bill in the white house and bill having a black eye/bruise. Sure enough, looking at film of him from the day and following in question, under one eye was some unusual shading, presumably covered with cosmetics.
“I think his wife is smarter than that, and is keeping her eyes on their stash for her kids’ sake, for after she dies.”
My only comment on this is that when you have that kind of money, you have it in many different places, and I cannot imagine he doesn’t have control of some accounts solo. In any event, 15k is a rounding error for them, or a shopping trip (new handbag + extras), or new furniture for one room, etc.
I think it was just a case of wishful thinking.
As if I'd ever give someone like that a second glance.
Your post #214 is HILARIOUS! :-D
EXACTLY!! How exactly is he 'laundering' $180,000 per year to her?!?! Inquiring minds demand to know. Is there any chance she is reporting that $180K as taxable income?? I sure do doubt it. This makes Spitzfong's money laundering for "Kristin" look like small potatoes..... (though Rielle should have demanded $5K per hourly session!!!! Her overall income could certainly go up)
Plus she loved that cigar.......
I’d prefer Spitzfong’s “Kristin” — though at $5K per hour her rate is commensurately higher (for her looks and/or ‘services’) than what “Rielle” (made up name, her real name is Laura) is charging......
Also, 4) He represents a pretty conservative state (NC). If this thing gets enough legs, maybe we can send him back to ambulance chasing. This state has no business having anyone with a D behind their name.
“Agreed. You are right on.”
Thanks.
Elizabeth isn’t even in the ground yet and he is making sure this speeds up the process. The stress of this will kill her.
What a worm.
He knows damn well you can’t get away with a love child affair forever. Just ask Bill Cosby and Jesse Jackson...funny how all 3 are diehard liberals.
Why do we care?
He will be a major player at the Democrat Convention. He came in third place, and is probably pushing for Attorney General. His campaign ran the Sympathy card for his ailing wife that he so faithfully adored.
Thats why we care. Hes a fraud.
What do you bet the Enquirer waits until the Democrat Convention to release the photos from their hotel encounter with Edwards?
“Bill Clinton didn’t cheat on his wife while she was dying of cancer.”
True, but only because Clinton’s wife isn’t dying of cancer.
