Exit question: Could he eke by on only $10 mil?

Nah. probably not. But he won’t get the nomination because of choices like this – us “regular people” do see through it.

Why, I can think of no better authority than Edwards when it comes to poverty- look at the financial hardships he has to endure every day. Perhaps next he should charge 55 grand to discuss the benefits of tort reform to curtail the activities of ambulance-chasing personal injury attorneys.

Other Democrats can follow suit:

Bill Clinton can get big money speaking about the benefits of marital fidelity.

Hillary can speak of the need to be open, honest and consistant.

Murtha can give speeches denouncing corruption in Congress; Diane Feinstein can be co-speaker.

Ted Kenedy can give a seminar about the health benefits of staying thin and abstaining from alcohol.

He did say he’d look into it. Satisfaction guaranteed! ♠

Mr. John Edwards, a.k.a Silky Poney
The Absolute Moral Authority on Hypocrisy (TAMAOH), also Presidential Candidate

The acronym sounds like a leftie cult and they love nothing more than an “absolute moral authority” on anything.

p.s. Don’t question them on anything.
p.p.s. He is irrelevant.
p.p.p.s. Madonna, from her 15-bath castle, has written “Hey you” to hook up with Al Gore’s lecturing on how we should live to save the world from us.

Controversial in a non-PC yet absolutely true about poverty way.

In which of the 2 America’s does $55k for a speech belong?

And a $400 haircut, and a 28,000 square foot house?

First thing: I don’t like his hair all that much. It’s the cut every white 5th grader in North Carolina gets, and it isn’t worth more than $10.

Second thing: can you really wrap your mind around the notion of a 28,000 square foot house? I mean, walk around your place for a few minutes, do a little math.

I live on a 40,000 square foot lot, just under an acre. It takes me hours to mow the grass on a John Deere tractor; my dogs live like kings in a fenced back yard of more than 20,000 square feet. People I know can’t believe how big the yard is (trade-off: the house is tiny).

His house is 70% of that lot.

UC schools, the stages where conservatives are attacked and harrassed…and where liberals hit pay dirt.

Bet no conservative stormed his stage.

And brings Palestinian terrorists supporters to campus and shuts down the Zionist speeches/events.

Of course no conservative charged the stage, we believe in free speech. Liberals don’t

Bet no conservative stormed his stage.

Exit question: Could he eke by on only $10 mil?

Only if he shaved his head.

It doesn’t write itself after all. I need speechwriters and consultants who have to prep the content so that it reaches the needed audiences.

I have to manage my appearances closely, and that takes time. And time means money.

/is it needed?

Screw those hypocritical jerk-wads.

Introducing John Edwards, the candidate for the common folks… just ignore the net worth nearly $30 million and the $400 haircuts, he’s still the guy that’s gonna help everyone out of poverty. In fact, he’s so eager to help coll…

This Silky Pony is some shyster. First he gets nearly $500K to learn about poverty at his fat-cat hedgefund….

I have to learn some kind of scam like that.

It turns out, though, that for all his scourging of government excess, Paul never has been much of a crusader against earmarks. As he put it in a floor speech last year, “earmarks . . . are a symptom of the problem, not the cause. The real problem is that the United States government is too big, spends too much, and has too much power.”

Nah… whats important is that he makes US THINK he feels the pain of the struggling class…
