Yes ma'am, it was your private business until your husband, as a public figure, lied about it to the press. Once again, he failed you.
I speak from some experience. Breast cancer killed my wife after 7 years of struggle. I didn't cheat on her because I once took an oath to be faithful in "Good times and in bad, in sickness and in health". I'm not a hero and I don't deserve a bit of praise. I was faithful to her because that's what adults do when they take an oath;they keep their word.
Mrs. Edwards deserves better, as does every woman. John Edwards is a punk.
I agree Elizabeth Edwards does deserve better but maybe she does not want better and if this is so then I respect her decision and pray that she will be able to keep him. As I suspect from reading and hearing more he may well still be carrying the affair on so to keep him she will have fight and fight dirty.
