I think I can hear John's voice crying..."Save me BLACK JESUS...save me"! Sorry John, even he can't rescue you now.

The answer to terrorism IS war. Next Please!

I've been waiting so long for this moment.

Now, lets watch the MSM cover up the fact that Edwards is a Democrat.

Anyone have any suggestions for the MSM on what label they could give Edwards instead of the (D)?

He says he did not love her.   Well that will sit well with the media but do women really want to hear that he had sex with a woman he didn't love and possibly conceived a child with a woman he did not love.   I don't know if this is a positive character trait.

A paternity test will be easy. So do it.  But remind me again why you'd be visiting a woman and her baby at 2pm in the morning again?   Sounds like a great Jerry Springer show. 

With Edwards, that is.

He has cashiered all his credibility, what little he was presumed to have even by the most virulently liberal. 

"Oh, but I didn't love her."  Let's see if that ameliorates things with his wife.  And wasn't she ill?

Gee, I wonder if he had a mistress in the other America, too?

Aside from Elizabeth Edwards and the Edwards kids is the lamestream media. By intentionally burying this story, they've only further cemented their reputation as shills for the Democrat Party.

Next time a newspaper wonders why it has to lay off dozens of staff members or a cable network is puzzled how FoxNews is #1 in the ratings or Air America can't figure out why it's declaring bankruptcy for the 15th time, they need only look at their behavior throughout the development of this story.

I doubt that anyone thought he actually loved this woman, but they are all wanting to knw what happened and when. And is there anything more laughable than trying to justify an affair, cheating on your cancer stricken wife no less, with the excuse of "Yeah, I slept with her...but I didn't love her"?

What. A. Tool!

It sounds like John is slowly giving a little truth along with more lies. He had an affair, but didn't love her and the kid is not his, but he is visiting the woman he didn't love and the child he didn't make at 2 in the morning on the other side of the country. This is going to be a painful drawn out journey to the full truth.

How bad must the MSM feel when they know that the National Enquirer got another scoop on them?

The more the MSM says their unbiased in the face of undeniable eveidence makes them seem like people who need an intervention.

please don't throw me under that buuuuss, thud thud......"

Instead of the (D), they can label him with a big, scarlet "A".

Between all the jokes, giggles, and thanks to NE, let's take a moment to sympathize with the children and innocent family members involved. As much as we're glad to see Edwards lose his political career, no one is happy to see it happen like this.

Okay. With that out of my system, I'm glad I'll never hear Elizabeth Edwards "spontaneously" calling live TV to attack Ann Coulter ever again.

Paging Maury Povich! Paging Maury Povich! Do the paternity test on your show!

Well, that explains everything!

Ok, guys, lets go on a rampage of bedding babes we don't love (but we think are hot) our wives will understand, since we don't love them!

What a jerk this guy is...unreal

His wife with life threatening cancer is no longer useful to his carreer so he takes up with another woman. Shows how much he cares about his family. My advice to Ms. Hunter - if he comes by to pick you up in uncle Teddy's limo, catch a cab.

This is so hysterical!

I cheated on my cancer stricken wife... while she was in remission... but I didn't love the other woman... who has a baby now... but the baby is not mine... one of my staffers was bangin' her too... the kid is probably his... probably... I go to visit her and the baby across the country... just because... the affair is over, so this should all go away now... How 'bout that Kwame dude? Have you heard about him?

"We really don't know what their relationship is like. I know that if I was sick (sicker than I am now) I would actively try to get my husband to find, physical comfort w/another woman."

"John Edwards did NOT take a vow to be celibate or holier-than-thou FOR YOU when he ran for president."

I could only get through about 1/10th of the comments on Daily Kos, but I managed to find the gems above. I had to stop before my soul completely died.

Of course there were plenty of these too:

"I dare them, because that will then give us the absolute right to compare family man Barack Obama to the aspiring filanderer in cheif, John McCain!"

He doesn't even know when he's lying...he just says whatever is expedient at the time

It's too easy. But I hope there's gambling action on how the paternity test goes, because I'm thinking he's the daddy despite the denials and it would be fun to see how many others are willing to risk money agreeing.

And I'll say it again: I really miss Spitzer's whore (the good looks part, not her horrid "music"). If all these Democrats refuse to keep it in their pants, can't they at least agree to make their scandals more visually entertaining??

The tax & spend drug war looks racist in the real world.

The greatest single danger for the MSM with regard to this controversy at this point in time is:

• they've been widely perceived as "in the tank" for the Dems on both Obama, and the Edwards affair;
• now that they've been proven wrong about one thing, it can't help but sew some seeds of doubt about how they continue to treat the other, which;
• adds to the impression that the MSM might be covering up the truth about some of the unsavoury stories about Obama that have circulated around the internet and blogosphere as well.

That is the greatest danger for the MSM on this, that is, unless the Maverick and his posse completely screw the pooch on this.

Excerpts from a speech by John Edwards entitled, The Moral Test of Our Generation:

Elizabeth and I have so much to be grateful for. And all of you know about some of the challenges we have faced in my family.

I am not holier than thou. I am not perfect by any means.

Maybe I have been freed from the system and the fear that holds back politicians because I have learned there are much more important things in life than winning elections at the cost of selling your soul.

It's time to tell the truth. -- I too have been guilty of my own silence -- but no more.

And, now, as I travel across America and listen to people, I hear real concern about what's going on. ...we are facing a moral crisis as great as any that has ever challenged us.

And, it is this test -- this moral test -- that I have come to understand is at the heart of this campaign.

And what has happened to the American "can do" spirit? I will tell you what has happened: all of this is the result of the bitter poisoned fruit of corruption and the bankruptcy of our political leadership.

This corruption did not begin yesterday... For us to continue down this path all we have to do is suspend all that we believe in.

If destruction be our lot -- we must ourselves be its author and finisher.

America lives because 20 generations have honored the one moral commandment that makes us Americans. To give our children a better future than we received.  -- and I know, as well as you, that we must not be the first generation that fails to live up to our moral challenge and keep the promise of America. That would be an abomination.

I am not perfect -- far from it -- but I do understand that this is not a political issue -- it is the moral test of our generation.

It will not be easy -- sacrifice will be required of us -- Yet, the responsibility is ours.

We, you and I, are the guardians of what America is and what it will be. The choice is ours.

Let us blaze a new path together, grounded in the values from which America was forged, still reaching toward the greatness of our ideals.

This is the cause of my life.

I am delighted to be eating a bit of crow here today over this -- I had adamantly been saying for months now that this story would never break, though I am taking some consolation in noting that it was Edwards himself who broke it rather than the media outlets running rampant with it.

Someone obviously offered him a payoff/reward of some sort to come clean here since his political career as we know it is effectively over. The DNC almost assuredly got wise to the fact that speculation over the issue or even an outright scandal would overshadow their convention and the Obama spotlight, and gave him an ultimatum or offer he couldn't refuse. It is also telling that this is breaking over the end of the same news cycle where giddy reports about the re-emergence of the Clintons has been running rampant: The two are most likely linked in some manner and in my opinion Edwards is playing for time in some way we aren't seeing yet with this confession stunt. The story ain't over yet, though his career as it was is, and for now that will do quite nicely.

>>>In an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with 44-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her.

Oh, well, that's alright then.  At least he didn't love her.  Then it was certainly worth destroying his family, the remaining months of his poor, dying, cancer-stricken wife, whom he politically prostituted during his campaign.

>>>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.

Sure, that makes sense, too.  Why take a paternity test when he knows he's not the father?  Since he knows he's not the father, there's no need.  It would only be necessary if he wasn't sure if he was the father - like if both he and his good buddy, Andrew Young, were passing Hunter back and forth between one another.  Yeah, that's it.  Makes good sense.  (Sorry, I ever doubted you, Johnny)

>>>Edwards said he knew he was not the father based on timing of the baby's birth on February 27, 2008. He said his affair ended too soon for him to have been the father.

Sarcasm aside: Is there any reason to believe this?  Why on God's green earth would Edwards have been at that hotel in the middle of the night, visiting a woman with whom he had not been involved for about two years or so, whom Edwards' friend Young claims to be her baby's father and not Edwards, who had check into the hotel with yet another friend of Edwards'?  Of course Edwards is not the baby's father.

And you know what?  Edwards really is just about the Democrats' cream of the crop.  The depths of the depravity of this man, I believe, stands to reform by comparison the character of Bill Clinton.  Bill and Monica ain't got nothing on the Breck Girl.

OK. It's time to allow the MSM and the leaders of the party of jackasses to soothe the ruffled hairs of their prized banty rooster and console his hurt feelings resulting from attacks by the vast right-wing conspiricy. All he did was desert his sick wife, humiliate his family, and prove himself to be a despicable person. Give them a chance to cover this all up and then they will present us with the new and improved Breck Girl.

If Edwards is persona non grata at the convention because of this peccadillo then why is Slick Willie still slated to give a speech? Is there a Statue of Limitations on tawdry affairs?

Actually, the Dems might find it quite uncomfortable if the Edwards affair gets worse right before the convention and Bill the Philanderer is given prime time.

As for McCain and Cindy -- yes, they had an adulterous affair -- and ended up happily married  for close to 30 years. Quite the difference from "But I didn't love her."

although the msm holding back the story is. You guys are right, if this was Rudy Guiliani or Fred Thompson, they would have been right on top of it. It is censorship, plain and simple.

Unless the politician is hypocrite that throws stones on people who cheat or people that see prostitutes, I could care less what people do in their own time.

Real life video games are cool

He had to get his McCain dig in in the same sleazy way he did about Cheny's daughter in the 2004 election.

What a creep.

In an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with 44-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her.
