Comments on: John Edwards Love Child Scandal: Edwards Caught with Rielle Hunter! http://www.bloggernews.net/116851 High-quality English language analysis and editorial writing on the news.

Notice there are no stories about the high and mighty who do NOT falter? Maybe we should hear more about them and less about the habitual cheaters. JFK is the only (apparent) womanizer who I much liked as a president. And there have been a few loyal husbands who were ineffective Presidents (Carter?). I think history will show that, in most cases, private character is reflected in the public arena (Truman, Ford, Reagan, Bush). When it comes to selecting a President, character really does matter.

This has been going on with men in positions of power since the beginning of time. This is just another chapter. Maybe we need to stop looking to our politicians for our moral standards and take on that responsibilty ourselves. The game of politics is corrupt! Always has been and always will be. Let stop looking to our politicians to fulfill anything more than their job responsibilities which is to understand and meet the needs of the electoral population to the best of their ability. If they can't do that, then we elect someone else. Clinton was not the first person in the White House to have an affair.

Then the couple return to the hotel TOGETHER... but then early the next morning he skulks away alone avoiding media. Oh yeah, that makes total sense, especially at the Beverly Hills Hilton in Los Angeles, the mother ship of paparazzi. Oh yeah this is real credible....How convenient, a week before Obama announces his VP pick. apparently Edwards was tops on a increasingly short list. Sorry don't buy it! just too damn politically expedient... Think about it!

Why would anyone think that this would hurt his chances for VP nomination? Is’nt this what those guys do…..? Clinton set the standard and was elected to two terms. How exciting to know we are in for a change in the White House. After President Bush leaves business will be back to normal….Way to go John! I don’t understand all the fuss!

John Edwards and Rielle Hunter just had a new baby!!! Don’t feel sorry for Mrs. Edwards. The National Enquirer broke this story way back in October 2007, but the MSM still refuses to report it. She is a classic codependent wife who has enabled her cheating husband, Senator John Edwards, to have multiple affairs, as everyone in South Carolina knows. It’s much more important to see John Edwards as he LIES to the world about his affair. Lucky for the Democrats that he didn’t get the nomination!! Don’t forget that the New York Times ran a COVER story that IMPLIED that McCain might have had an affair with a female lobbyist. I think this story deserves similar treatment. Where’s the COVER STORY New York Times? =) John Edwards for Vice-Pres!!

The National News isn’t NEWS anymore, its left wing propaganda. We can’t even get the straight up facts anymore. People are brain washed and spoon fed the news that ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and HOLLYWOOD wants you to hear, not what is really happing in the world. WHEN ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING TO SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH? Hell I saw a hit piece on Michael Savage this morning on the Today show just because he said kids are being misdiagnosed with autism. The Today Show did a hit piece referring to people to boycott his sponsors. I don’t care what the hell he said, he has freedom of speech rights and the NATIONAL NEWS NETWORKS have no right attacking someone because they have the ability to do so. The power of the media is out of control. Quote, “Following the remarks, autism activists and parents are now calling for Savage’s job.” WHO IN THE HELL GAVE THESE ACTIVISTS THE RIGHT TO TAKE AWAY OUR FREEDOM OF SPEECH? Who cares what he said? Turn the damn station if you don’t like it. THE MEDIA IS LEADING US AROUND LIKE SHEEP PEOPLE. WAKE UP AND STOP BELIEVING THIS GARBAGE. The Democrats have tried to compete with Conservative Talk Radio with Air America and it has miserably failed. So now these networks at every opportunity do hit pieces on them to try and get sponsors to stop advertising with them. The Democrats in Congress want to pass the Fairness Doctrine to allow equal time on talk radio, while totally ignoring the fact that they dominate the National News, American Universities and local and state governments. They want to silence the Republicans and claim it’s in all due fairness. Hell I can’t even download a conservative talk radio show off of iTunes without first filtering my way through all the Liberal crap first. Even though the conservative talk shows blow the other shows away in ratings. How is this Democracy people? How is this Constitutional? How does this preserve our Liberties? The answer is it doesn’t. This kind of behavior is destructive and needs to stop.

Maybe in his $400 hair cut? Why in the world would ANYONE have ever voted for such a hypocrite? It's telling that like most sociopaths, he was sure he couldn't be caught.
