		<description>&quot;I don’t care what John Edwards did.&quot;

You mean you only care about what he SAYS - even when he&#039;s revelaed to be a phony?
People loved and believed in what Jimmy Swaggart had to say, too.  According to some news stories, Edwards was a guy whom the Dems had trouble trusting from the get-go. As he admits in his own book, juries wouldn&#039;t trust his case until they trusted HIM. And to that end, he will tell pretty-iffy stories about himself and his noble life to gain their trust and sympathy. He is a sociopath. Just look up what he told Kerry about his own, dead son (twice!) to promote himself. Disgusting!</description>

		<description>Give me a break! Of course this matters! Would you want such a deceptive (and stupid) person as Edwards in a position of authority? The reporting on him has helped the country. Do you want someone who actually thinks he can cover up this Rielle mess dealing with the Russians, the Iranians, the Israelis? I don&#039;t think so.

Yes, Bush is bad news too. But we don&#039;t need a Democratic Bush leading the country, do we? 

Maybe attention being paid to this will help raise the caliber of people voted in to office. ... I doubt that will happen, but at least Edwards&#039; actions serve as an example of how not to act if you want to be president ... or attorney general...

We need more of this type of reporting, not less.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t care what John Edwards did. Why does everyone say his political career is over because he cheated? John McCain still has a political career; Newt Gingrich was Mr. Family Values yet he served divorce papers to his wife in the hospital while she had cancer AND was a dead beat dad to boot.

Bush is about as immoral as you can get. Lies that got us into an unnecessary war; beat and torture policy; Alberto Gonzales (he was just horrible in general); scorched earth environmental policy. And the biggest Bush deceit of all? His claim that he&#039;s a &quot;Christian.&quot; What a joke. All presidents/politicians lie at one time or another, but GB2 will do down in history as the BIGGEST DECEIVER of them all. 

Just because Edwards had an affair, it doesn&#039;t mean he cares less about the poor, national healthcare, and the environment. What a country we live in that deems one&#039;s political career over because of sex. We are a bunch of simple-minded puritans who cannot hold two-opposing thoughts in our minds at the same time. 

And what happens between Edwards and his wife is nobody&#039;s effing business! Democrat or Republican, a leader&#039;s personal proclivities and foibles has no bearing on how he or she governs. 

Leave Edwards and his wife alone and pay attention to the filthy deceiving weasels who run our country now.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never liked him... there was always something creepy about him. I feel so bad for Elizabeth. The woman is dying as we speak and this is how she&#039;ll spend her last days. What an a@@. He should get what he deserves. No office whatsoever. A plant job would suit him well.</description>

		<description>Two weeks before his admission, Edwards was still mailing out US Senate Fundraising letters.

		<description>Fox News implies the $14,000 paid in April 2007 may have been paid directly to Rielle Hunter, not Midline Groove productions, and that the campaign already owned full rights to the 100 missing hours of footage.

If I was to guess, I would guess this information came directly from Mimi Godfrey Hockman (aka Mary Hockman), Rielle Hunters former business partner.

The check did not go to Midline Groove Productions:
&lt;blockquote&gt;However, a source that claims to be knowledgeable about the company and the way it was run told FOX News on Friday that is untrue. According to the source, no deposits showed up in the bank account of Midline Groove Productions after January 2007. The source in the Times story claimed that the money was sent in April 2007.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Why the $14,000 payment was unlikely to be for video rights:
&lt;blockquote&gt;... there would not have been a need for the Edwards campaign to pay for the footage, the source said, since the campaign already owned it.

The source added: &quot;Edwards&#039; campaign was always very sensitive about the footage and as such they retained all rights.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

John Edwards remains the second most searched term on the NYT, thanks to the unattributed research of Deceiver.

		<description>Picking up from Snakewriggle, here&#039;s my favorite:

&lt;blockquote&gt;In too many poor communities marriage is the exception, and male responsibility is not what it should be. 

Children who grow up without fathers are much more likely to be poor and at greater risk for a host of problems into adulthood.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


Too bad John was born the son of a poor millworker.  

If he&#039;d been born into a rich community, this never would&#039;ve happened. 

In a way, John is just a victim of poverty.  And Elizabeth stands behind that.
