Yep. John Edwards always hides behind his sick wife and uses her as an attack dog.
Waiting for the DNA test results.
Yeah, he said he ended the affair in 2006. We can trust him on that. He would never lie to us.
“But the Senator, while insisting he was not intoxicated, could not explain his nudity.” Elizabeth, there’s still the 2 AM hotel visit.
the last post on this was pulled ...dont know why
It’s ‘sensationalism’s’ fault, not a democrat’s (Edwards)?
Poor logic, there.
Sorry Lix, this is the course your asshat husband has taken.
When confronted with the truth he consistently responded with ass covering lies. If the National Enquirer had not done the job the MSM should be doing he would have been VP or Attorney General in a Bronco Bomber administration (just typing that made me throw up in my moutn).
Get over it... he betrayed you.
He's not fit to be a husband and father much less someone charting the direction of this country.
What a tough little stud-muffin that Johnny is.
She won’t be speaking at the convention according to the spokeswoman, Jennifer Palmieri, on Larry King Alive with Wolf hosting.
Well let’s see the results of a rigorously conducted paternity test......
Let’s see if all the assertions pouring forth now from John and Elizabeth Edwards can be substantiated, such as claims that the affair ended in 2006, that the baby is not his, etc.
Why was he visiting his (former??) mistress surreptitiously late at night in a Beverly Hills hotel just a couple of weeks ago?? Is the photo of a man holding the baby really him? Looks like him...... Surely people do not make secret late-night visits to a former mistress in a hotel room just to play with someone else’s illegitimate baby....
How has this mistress been paid and supported from the time they met onward, what are the sources of funds, luxury homes in gated communities, etc.?
Since this may well involve campaign dollars, possible tax fraud, etc. there is plenty to be investigated and exposed before we allow them to say “old news, move on”
I was reading about this on another thread, and I actually see things a bit differently than most when reading her statement...
When she says the process became much easier after her diagnosis it could mean a couple things... One, that she gave him her blessing to continue the affair with the exception that he would stay by her side until she recovered, or passed on. Two, that when she was diagnosed he became more committed to the marriage... Honestly, with John’s apparent rendevous at the hotel recently, I’m guessing it was the first option. If she were convinced she were going to die - she may have given him permission to pursue the relationship, knowing he wouldn’t be alone after she was gone...
Now, this doesn’t excuse Edwards’ indiscretion. Nor does it excuse the “society or political wife’s” behavior (acceptance, and forgiveness after it becomes public knowledge). It would seem to me that unlike “regular” people these types of relationships are the same as your average marriage in the 50s when divorce was so looked down upon - so things just went on behind the scenes often with the wife knowing, but never saying anything (”boys will be boys”).
There are a bunch of ways these situations play out - especially as I mentioned if it is a “public” marriage. I’m assuming at this point there was some sort of agreement made between wife and husband regarding this affair - obviously he’s still seeing her (with or without Elizabeth’s knowledge). It’s not like the National Enquirer just “got lucky” finding him in that hotel that night.
Well, I’m just babbling now, but without knowing all the details no-one is really going to be right on the money with all the speculation going on...
Did she blame the VRWC yet?
Sorry your dieing... but your as disgusting as he is.
Its obvious by your statement that you would have allowed him to become commander in chief
knowing he is a sorry piece of shit and his lack of character and wisdom had been found so wanting.
I cant stand people like you and your husband who put self above God and country.
Im feeling very sorry that your children will understand what I am saying eventually.
Good GRIEF Elizabeth- you posted this on Daily Kos?
I mean, Slate, Huff Po or The Nation, fine. But Daily Kos?
Frankly, I wonder what they're sitting on about B. Hussein Obama...you know how much they love him...causes one to believe there might be tons of dirt even the conservative blogosphere hasn't found yet--but the dopes in the "Old Media" world are keeping under wraps.
Big Media/Democrat Party=LIARS.
So they are both lying scumbags who went on the campaign trail, lied to the public about his affair and used her cancer to play the victim card for the sympathy vote.
Neither of them deserves any sympathy at all.
It is too bad he didn’t win the nomination.
As the democrat nominee this revelation would have completely detroyed any chance for them to win the White House and probably would have hurt their numbers in Congress as well.
What the media won’t tell you is that if the little boy, who was born in March, 2007, turns out to be Edwards’ son, then it follows that Edwards cheated on his wife while knowing she had cancer, because pregnancies last approximately 9 months. Doing the math, we would have to conclude that the kid was conceived no earlier than May, 2006, and as we all know, news reports of the return of Elizabeth’s cancer broke in March, 2006.
The Elizabeth Edwards blog on Daily Kos reads:.....
Although John believes he should stand alone and take the consequences of his action now, when the door closes behind him, he has his family waiting for him.
Ummmm.....a certain person in one of our two America's needs some help.
Face it, Breck Boy, ya can't run with the big dogs when your a squirrel.
I feel sorry for the family.
Nice wrap up on the legacy, John.
You will be lucky to be a footnote in the 'Rat dust bin.
I say this with some regret, Elizabeth Edwards is an enabler. She didn’t come out and tell the truth and hold her husband accountable. Instead, for political expediency she kept quiet and said nothing to allow his campaign to go forward.
