Speaking of Silky Pony, he crawled out of the mud and left a trail of slime across Virginia this weekend.
Last week Bunny Mellon, the wife of Paul Mellon, passed away at 103. She was buried at the family farm in Upperville, Virginia, after a funeral held at Trinity Episcopal Church in Upperville. Mrs Mellon had unwisely allowed herself to be conned by John Edwards and gave him a large amount of money for his campaign. Most of the money went to support his whore. Naturally poor Mrs Mellon was mortified, as anyone would be.
So of course this slug came to her funeral, showing up late so as to draw attention to himself. Afterward he began to ostentatiously work the crowd. It was beyond disgusting. People out there were too stunned and too well-bred to raise their voices and throw him out of the churchyard, so he got away with it, shaking the hands of a lot of very confused Virginians.
He didn't try it with me, unfortunately.
I’m not surprised that this low life slime didn’t have the decency to stay away. Look how he treated his dying wife. You’re right...he’s pure slime.
Edwards barred from Bunny Mellons funeral
When the former politician and his daughter Cate Edwards, who is also his law partner, arrived Friday at Mellons funeral at Trinity Episcopal Church in Upperville, Va., he was barred from entering, a source connected to the Mellon family told NY Social Diary blogger David Patrick Columbia.
The service may have been open to the public, but he was not welcome, Columbia said.
Edwards and his daughter watched with the rest of the overflow crowd on a big screen in the adjacent parish house.
After a moving eulogy by actor Frank Langella, and a poignant rendition of The Rose by Bette Midler, the thick-skinned Edwards seemingly oblivious to the familys wishes followed the funeral procession to the cemetery.
He was working the crowd near the graveside after the service, Columbia said.
