I think this is a cruel attack on a lovely woman who truly loved and was betrayed. I see no revenge in anything. This thread should be removed. It is cruel to HER.
How does a wife do this in a will with joint assets while still married?
Something does not add up.
A woman’s wrath is second only to God’s. What a horrible mess he made. She is in peace now and will wait for him with Jesus by her side.
“Anger and bitterness are dangerous and destructive emotions.”
Some way, some how, JE will pay for his despicable cheating. Not being angry and full of revenge is hard. “I will never stoop so low as to allow another man to make me hate him” Good advice, often hard to follow.
She must have been Irish or Italian, because she had the memory condition that erases everything but the grudges and vendettas.
RIP, EE! God luv ya!!!
This story stinks of BS to me.
None of us here on FR agreed with Elizabeth politically, but this posthumous sliming is a bit much.
John Edwards is the scoundrel, not his late wife!
ok, i can understand wanting to get even with John, and Rielle...but Quinn had no choice to be born...
Elizabeth Edwards earned what she got, I mean in her life not the way she died. Remember her cruel comments about Cheney’s daughter during the 2004 campaign?
She was far from the saint the liberal media tries to portray her as.
I suspect his cheating was John’s way of getting back at her for the years of mental abuse she inflicted on him with her personality. Seen it a thousand times before.
Of course, he always was a scumbag too. They were a perfect match.
Typical Liberals, all for compassion and giving money away to the poor in public and selfish heels in private.
In the old days they used to just utter a deathbed curse. Then everyone would wait on the condemned’s fate and the completion of the moral lesson. Ah well, another fine tradition lost to the ages.
This doesn’t add up. Most of those will requirements would likely be void as against public policy.
Sounds like a first class bit@h. No wonder he found a nicer woman. Prob no nicer before, not a bit.
How can she stop JE from taking his children, he is their father? This does not make any sense to me.
Well it seems that EE was a hateful lying democrat lawyer to the very end.
How wonderful for her. What did she really expect when she married a hateful lying democrat lawyer?
I don’t get how one spouse (now dead) can stop another from making major decisions for their minor children. I can see everything else she did in terms of gifts, asset protection, etc. They are his children too, she did not have more than 50% say in their lives alive, how can she when she’s dead?
This doesn’t make sense...Edwards has the estate.
Also, as for “poor” Elizabeth, she was in her glory as her husband sued Doctors and ravaged NC medical practice, talking about “hearing those embryos talk to me..” he sent malpractice insurance soaring out of site and ruined an entire industry.
Then he builds a 28,000 sq. ft. estate with a 17,000 sq. ft. “Play barn” in Chapel Hill. She knew what was going on and took full advantage to play victim. She star-gazed at occupying the White House and used her medical condition as a weapon to draw votes.
It is too bad young children lose their mother before they grow to adulthood. Elizabeth Edwards is a victim like Hillary is a victim...
Most men will cheat given the opportunity.
I can understand her anger and hurt she was treated very badly by her husband. She could very well have planned all these things but I would not like to go to meet God with so much hate in my heart. I hope that under the same circumstances I would forgive him.
Man there are some bitter b*tches on this thread. Better read some Holy Scripture. Her bitterness and lack of forgiveness has no impact on the idiots eternal progression (read that the low-life John Edwards) but is a significant stain on her soul. Imagine meeting the Lord with that hatred still in your heart. I pray I never do so.
If they weren’t divorced she didn’t have much say in anything that was not her sole and seperate property. I’m sorry about what happened to her, both in having a cheating husband and in getting cancer, but she can’t keep him from his children and she has no say over money he earned.
