- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -26/+560He points out that his wifes cancer was in remission when he started cheating on her... what a classy sweetheart.

Now John has two families for his TWO AMERICAS! - minox, on 08/08/2008, -14/+330Cheating on your wife who is dying of cancer. Could he not find any toddlers to punch in the face?
- Christianptriot, on 08/08/2008, -69/+302after this, he'll probably get the Dem nomination away from obama!
And you gotta love this misguided quote - like it means that it was OK to have the affair: "he did have an affair with 42-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her."
is that supposed to make it OK, that he didn't love her? What an immoral ass. - inactive, on 08/08/2008, -16/+184Being a pig is a non partisan event:
Newt Gingrich
Bob Barr
John Edwards
A skanky cheat is a skanky cheat... - spankaccount, on 08/08/2008, -60/+215We all knew he was a shyster lawyer, but I don't think any of us realized just how corrupt this jerk was. What a piece of human filth.
- kevinmeyers, on 08/08/2008, -15/+167Wow - way to blow a career.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -2/+133I like this bit,
"His political action committee later paid her $114,000 to produce campaign website documentaries despite her lack of experience." - mjm7496, on 08/08/2008, -54/+182Now I really wish he would have won the Dem nomination. This would have been funny as hell going into the primary. Right now though... Who cares. This guy is washed up anyway.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -6/+112Although it was REALLY considerate of the media to ignore this story these last few weeks so that he could go public with it on a Friday afternoon, the same day as the Olympics Opening Ceremony so that by the time Monday rolls around they could bury in the back of the paper.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -8/+101When repubs complain that there sex scandals get so much attention, I say when you put your self on an ethical pedestal, you deserve the scorn.
Same goes for Edwards. He sat there, playing the devoted husband to his oh so sick and dying wife, even using it for political gain.
What is good for the goose is good for the gander. He deserves every lousy thing he gets from this... - jdigg06, on 08/08/2008, -36/+129And some of you wanted this guy to be President or VP.... haha!
- rpfinley, on 08/08/2008, -18/+109He should have learned from Obama and admitted his mistakes in a book, the public is forgiving but you have to admit mistakes and not lie to them.
- neveroddoreven, on 08/08/2008, -25/+110Grade A douchebag.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -10/+91Strange all this weird ***** is happening today.
Guess the Russians , Johnny and Kwamee all figured the Olympics would be enough to overshadow their ***** ups. - Biller13, on 08/08/2008, -8/+89Really disgusting move. It's one thing to have an affair but while your wife has cancer.. Scumbag.
- evanfacebook, on 08/08/2008, -26/+105What if he'd won the primary? Irresponsible, selfish *****. Could've sunk the whole ***** Democratic Party. It's not 1960 (or 1992 for that matter). I don't care where you put your dick, but you are not permitted to jeopardize the entire party because you think you can keep your illegitimate child and/or illicit affair and/or both under wraps --- particularly when the whole thing leaked out and was subsequently and collectively ignored by the MSM and public in December.
Welcome to my *****, John Edwards. - inactive, on 08/08/2008, -42/+120Edwards is an ambulance chasing piece of garbage.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -13/+89"Lack of experience" must be democrat code for "she had only slept with him a couple times at that point"
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -6/+81The following was Edwards' response to CBS News anchor Katie Couric's question about whether voters should care if a presidential candidate is faithful to his spouse:
"Of course. I mean, for a lot of Americans -- including the family that I grew up with, I mean, it's fundamental to how you judge people and human character -- whether you keep your word, whether you keep what is your ultimate word, which is that you love your spouse, and you'll stay with them. ... I think the most important qualities in a president in today's world are trustworthiness -- sincerity, honesty, strength of leadership. And -- and certainly that goes to a part of that." - harrisbradley, on 08/08/2008, -12/+79They say he always idolized Clinton
- theutopian, on 08/08/2008, -16/+76Something never rubbed me right about him.
I was right.
Having an affair after your wife survives cancer = douchiest thing a man can possibly do.
Jeez, he didn't even bother to screw a 20 year old. - TheInformer, on 08/08/2008, -29/+89So this is a person who represents the Democratic party.
Where are the outcries on Huffingtonpost? Thinkprogress? Dailykos? MoveOn.org? Where is the deluge of articles from those sites and others of their ilk? If it were a Republican that did this, you would see nothing else on those sites but coverage of the event.
This also shows the National Enquirer is head and shoulders above any of those aforementioned sites. - Kohaxx, on 08/08/2008, -9/+68Yeah because highly moral conservatives never have affairs:
John McCain: affair and divorce
Newt Gingrich: affair divorce, affair again divorce, drug addiction
Rudy Giuliani: divorce, affair, really ugly divorce
David Vitter: extra marital affair and then sponsored marriage "protection" bill
Larry Craig: sponsored same bill, and stared through another man's stall after signifying interest in engaging in activities with the officer.
Yes, clearly it's those damn amoral liberals who cheat on their wives no matter what the circumstance. Newsflash: Almost all politicians are amoral douchebags regardless of party. - spankaccount, on 08/08/2008, -14/+73National Enquirer for the win
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -12/+70BREAKING! The Enquirer is a more reliable news source than the Huffington Post when it comes to the Democratic Party.
- truman48, on 08/08/2008, -8/+66At least he did not wreak his car into a lake and watch his girlfriend drown
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -3/+60Someone give this man a trophy.
- MAJX, on 08/08/2008, -26/+81Real classy defense lawyer. What a phony. I guess he won't be speaking at the dem convention. Well maybe in the parking lot.
- OfNumbers, on 08/08/2008, -34/+87My friends, you'll be pleased to know that I am a fiscal conservative.
- mattowan, on 08/08/2008, -38/+89Notice the article doesn't even use the word Democrat, yet every time it's a Republican they use the word republican and GOP several times.
- drachemorder, on 08/08/2008, -12/+61"His political action committee later paid her $114,000 to produce campaign website documentaries despite her lack of experience."
Well, that's okay. Their presidential candidate doesn't have any experience either. - solboldi, on 08/08/2008, -37/+82A great day for the Democrats...Kwame Kilpatrick goes to jail and Edward admits he cheated on his wife who has cancer. Obama was considering Edwards for VP.
- Charlotte_Web, on 08/08/2008, -5/+50He admits the affair, but denies the baby is his. I guess his girlfriend had a revolving door on her bedroom? Why does the baby's birth certificate not have a father listed?
He'll never submit to a public DNA test, so he can deny it for the rest of his life. Or, until the girl turns into a pissed-off teenager and tells everyone, herself. - Sharky35, on 08/08/2008, -49/+93John Edwards = Piece O' S#iT
- datastorageguy, on 08/08/2008, -30/+74If there was even a whisper of a prominent Republican having and affair or love child, the LA Times, NY Times, Washington Post, et. al. would have run the story months ago ad nauseum. It's amazing that this story only broke in the MSM with his admission.
- N3tw0rk, on 08/08/2008, -34/+72McCain cheated on his on wife when she became disabled in a car accident. Why are McCain's actions any more excusable than Edwards'? Because it was thirty years ago? I would like to know why John McCain shouldn't also be run out of politics for his adulterous affairs and what he did to his first wife.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1024927/ ... - inactive, on 08/08/2008, -0/+38 In 1999, when Edwards was a senator, he said of President Clinton and his affair with Monica Lewinsky:
"I think this president has shown a remarkable disrespect for his office, for the moral dimensions of leadership, for his friends, for his wife, for his precious daughter. It is breathtaking to me the level to which that disrespect has risen." - dexter411, on 08/08/2008, -3/+39FTA: "Edwards also denied he was the father of Hunter's baby girl, Frances Quinn, although the one-time Democratic Presidential candidate said he has not taken a paternity test."
Though I agree with your sentiment. When Elliot Spitzer resigned, Crooks and Liars conveniently left out his party affiliation. - jobeats, on 08/08/2008, -7/+41So much for him being named Attorney General in an Obama administration
- FlaG8r, on 08/08/2008, -3/+37Edwards name hasn't come up seriously in a long time.
- Parkeway, on 08/08/2008, -36/+70What's the over-under on this EVER making the front page?
- sysoprock, on 08/08/2008, -9/+42It's cool though because his wife was in one America and his mistress was in the other.
- inactive, on 08/08/2008, -1/+34he was rubbing on you too? Damn, that dude can't keep it in his pants!
- crowbar77, on 08/08/2008, -2/+33Not that forgiving. I'm assuming your talking about him doing weed, which is pretty common in college. Cheating on your wife when she has cancer.. not so much.
- FredFredrickson, on 08/08/2008, -8/+39What does this have to do with him being a democrat or not?
You couldn't be stupid enough to think that liars, adulterers, etc. are only in one party... could you? Is it so hard to remember the slew of other problems that *ahem* other party has, on almost a regular basis? - liongoesroar, on 08/08/2008, -1/+32To be fair, the article does say "one-time Democratic Presidential candidate."
- dunderballer, on 08/08/2008, -19/+49If there are this many affairs that surface with people who are constantly followed by cameras and know their increased risk of exposure and humiliation, just imagine how many affairs go on with the common man. People are whores.
- Gandalff, on 08/08/2008, -2/+32So TRUE you are... I believe the American Public will not let this go and least one of the Americas he tries to speek of.
The Rich America he lives in believes this is a badge of honor to be in public office. It is on the democrats list in order to be taken serious. See now that he has the experience he can now tell us how to live because he has done this himself. Sick just Sick of the double standard. - inactive, on 08/08/2008, -9/+38similar to "i smoked but i didn't inhale."
