I picture you with a massive ulcer from the black coffee consumed to report on events, and the bile generated by people ripping off your work without giving you credit.

(in addition to the Darman article you linked to). Well, if you go to Newsweek's homepage, the only mention of Edwards on the whole page is a link to a SERIOUS (not updated) article about how he's a (serious) contender for the VP slot. How can that be? Of course, the home page does link the Darman article, but only references Rielle Hunter on that link.

"Neighbors of Mr. McGovern described him as a friendly and low-key person who often puttered around his small front lawn in slacks and a dress shirt. They said he was active in community and political causes around Santa Barbara, particularly those having to do with the construction of more low-income housing. John Holmes, who lives across the street from the McGoverns, said on Sunday that the couple had lived on the block for several years and blended into the neighborhood comfortably. “Bob is a really pleasant guy, very interested in the community,” Mr. Holmes said. “The only thing that stood out about him was that he was often up early in the morning doing work around the house. I learned recently, too, that he and his wife took care of a relative in their home for a long time, a relative who was dying of cancer.” While Mr. McGovern appeared to work at least partly from home, neighbors said they were unaware of his professional activities beyond community activism. One of his neighbors described him as a “spiritual” man who had offered help and counseling to people in the area. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/11/us/11edwards.html?_r=1&scp=10&sq=john edwards&st=cse&oref=slogin Bob McGovern did not, apparently, dress up as a clown for neighborhood children.

“Edwards telling the public as much as he must while hiding other information – and claiming to be entirely forthcoming – represents a greater level of arrogance, self-reference, and psychotic distortion of reality than has ever been displayed by the many political figures who have gone down in flames“

Edwards almost certainly has NPD, and quite possibly ASPD.

Rielle Hunter almost certainly has BPD.

This whole scandal is driven by personality disorders.

There must have been other bimbos over the years and a system in place to keep them happy and quiet afterwards. “a narcissism that leads you to believe you can do whatever you want, you’re invincible, and there will be no consequences.”

Here is Edwards on Clinton on Feb. 12, 1999:

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.
