Rielle Hunter Said to Seek $17,000 a Month From John Edwards in Child Support
Politics Daily ^ | December 18, 2009 | Emily Miller

Rielle Hunter wants John Edwards to pay $17,910 a month in child support for her daughter, Frances Quinn Hunter, according to the National Enquirer. Private financial negotiations between Hunter and Edwards reportedly broke down last week when her demands for the 22-month-old child were more than the former senator and presidential candidate was willing to pay.

Edwards has never publicly acknowledged that he is the girl's father, but did admit to an affair with Hunter at a time when his wife, Elizabeth, was battling cancer.

Now, legal documents obtained by Radaronline.com appear to show communication between Hunter and her attorney, Frank Louis, preparing to sue Edwards for $214,920 in annual child support.

The documents indicate Hunter is not employed -- and do not factor in any income from her -- but say she spends $2,100 a month on babysitting and will pay $1,500 a month for private preschool.

It is unclear how Hunter now affords her $11,560 in monthly expenses, but it has been speculated that she is living off a temporary financial agreement with Edwards. The documents also prompt questions as to why Hunter would need a full-time nanny if her child is in preschool and she does not work.

Hunter's other monthly expenses for herself and daughter – whom the lawyer refers to as "Quinn" -- seem extremely high: $600 for clothes, $800 for vacations, $800 on restaurants and $500 for entertainment. What kind of vacations the mother and daughter take that would cost $9,600 a year is not explained.

One also questions how one woman and a toddler can eat at restaurants to the tune of $800 a month, especially in light of the $1,000 a month they spend on groceries at home.

Ex-wives and ex-mistresses are the BEST form of wealth redistribution, aren’t they John-boy?

$17,000 a month. Won’t do it in a few months. Obama is monetizing the debt, and hyper-inflation is about to hit. Is the DNC kicking its hush money in? Come on DNC, you gotta help a poh boy out! (sarc.)

He didn’t have time.

Hey, maybe Tiger’s ex can get the Silky Pony to represent her? Man, think how much richer they could get feasting on THEM bones...if the change to a California court scheme falls through, that might be a good next scam to try out...get Johnny on him.

Perhaps the American people’s survival instincts will be honed such that the next time a politician barely elected to the senate suddenly decides they are ready to be President, people will see the danger in such unbridled ambition and malignant narcissism ...

Oh crap ... nevermind.

I think they are both despicable human beings - which again encourages me to support a National Health System requiring IQ and STD tests before awarding government approved copulation and conception permits.

In our prior, civilized society; Edwards would be considered a bigamist and Hunter a blackmailing harlot.
