That “Loving Couple Act” Elizabeth and Eddie put on before the cameras was nauseating.
She and her cancer were being used to advance his political ambitions.
She was stupid for allowing that—although she clearly loved the media spotlight as much as Eddie did.
Yes, Jessica Hahn....what a dog...
This horrible domestic drama is almost a metaphor for modern America.
We have a married couple who rapidly amassed wealth and status; accessorized with the requisite number of children, presenting the perfect “American Success Story”.
Over the course of a few years, the loss of a son and Elizabeth’s cancer diagnosis must have sent the Edwards into a tailspin of grief.
Sadly, it seems, the tragedies did not bind them together. So what were the influences and motivations that plunged these people into self-destruction and narcissism? What could have prevented this debasement? Did they even consider the harmful effects to their children and each other?
Sadly, we have all witnessed similar destruction caused by adultery and immorality - in our own families and friends. The difference being that the National Enquirer has not printed all the gory details.
Time for John and Elizabeth Edwards to grow up, think of their children, get better advice and go into seclusion. A church might be a good place to start.
I’ve lived in NC for almost 15 yrs. I have heard several people say it was common knowledge that he was a philanderer. These comments were made to me back when he first ran for the Senate.
I wasn't defending anyone, simply trying to point out the quick slide that a person's life can take . All that glitters is not gold as the saying goes.
Elizabeth Edwards KNEW he was having an affair and STILL HELPED him in running for PRESIDENT!!! She is an ENABLER and Power Monger.
She reminds me of Camilla Parker Bowles.
ugh
Still, I can hardly blame Elizabeth Edwards if she chooses to dump the scum. I hope she takes him to the cleaners in the settlement.
>> She’s been his confidant for years, and she’s always kept quiet <<
We knew all along that Liz was a co-conspirator in John Boy’s sleezy career as an ambulance chasing millionaire and as a political demagogue. And now we learn she was equally complicit in concealing his morally reprehensible private life.
In other words she shares his guilt, and I say she deserves absolutely no sympathy — cancer to the contrary not withstanding.
Moreover, the disgrace and tragedy these two evil-doers have bequeathed to their three mutual children and to John Boy’s illegitimate daughter are virtually beyond description, beyond understanding. Eternal damnation would seem too kind a fate for this couple.
Does this mean that she wouldn’t divorce hm if it was only one woman?
That picture is worth three hours of aerobic exercise.
Maybe John can on the Letterman show and apologize for...oh wait
Is CBS bringing back 'I've got a Secret' from the 50's?
Maybe the Blackmailing Producer was just scouting opportunities for the show...:)
Oops - wrong thread
(got to watch my tabs)
Agreed. Talk about two scumbags who deserve each other....
Whew.
You bad McGruff!!!!
