[...] Stop the presses! Edwards had an affair! Jump to Comments It’s all over the internet, and I suppose everyone has heard about this by now. I haven’t really been on the internet recently but I religiously listen to the Young Turks podcast. Anyways, I was listening to Friday’s podcast, and lo and behold, they talked about that news. The same one Welcome to Hannity has been asking me about. The same one generating over 400 comments at HotAir. [...]

I can’t get past the: “I started to believe I was special..”

What the? Soo…Special people get to be unfaithful to their spouses?
I don’t get it. Does he think Bill Clinton is special?

On this rare occasion, I must differ with you, Ent.

One doesn’t get into the special forces as a nitwit, Jaibones. But you may differ at any time.

p.s. how are those blueberry pies coming?

Also, J_Gocht, McCain’s ex wife has proven that story false, and will do so again this year. Don’t repeat it because I know you are smarter than that. Entelechy on August 9, 2008 at 10:32 AM

Entelechy, if you weren’t so beautiful, you’d be cute and very smart too! ;)

Entelechy — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 15:20:37 +0000

And to your point J_Gocht, it is a travesty for all involved, especially for all the children and Mrs. Edwards, but not to be excused by anyone for political reasons. The same for the other side, if it happens.

Entelechy — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 15:19:06 +0000

J_Gocht, my sincere apologies to you – I misspelled “special forces”. Coffee in order now. It’s just a little after 8:00 here, but no excuses, I own it.

We’re good J, because your service in the special forces puts you on an extremely high pedestal with me. You can mess up a lot and I’ll still value your service, and your intellect to have been in that special service. Also, you are very polite and don’t turn obnoxious.

p.s. many have a challenge with differentiating moral from morale, on the spelling alone.

McCain and his first wife had not seen each other in seven years. She had a horrible accident that left her crippled. He returned after 5 1/2 years of captivity, tortured, bones broken, teeth knocked out which also left him crippled. It’s unfair to compare him to Edwards.

By: abcurtis

abcurtis — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 14:44:53 +0000

Consider this…

John McCain. Cheated on his disabled wife when he returned from Vietnam, eventually marrying the woman he was having an affair with. Possible affair with lobbyist Vicki Iseman.[?] Not as family values-obsessed as most Republicans…”

Nah, fergetaboutit…!
Olde news?

J_Gocht on August 9, 2008 at 8:36 AM

This was what – almost 40 years ago? What affairs has McCain had since? The alleged lobbyist affair – nobody’s seen any proof. You can bet if it had some smattering of truth, the MSM would be on it like a chicken on a june bug – all over it.
Besides, how long do you plan to hold a four decade old affair against McCain? Looks to me like he’s gone and sinned nor more.

Hunter’s family is now calling for a paternity test. They seem sure that the baby is his. This is hilarious in that if Edwards lied once again, his future is even deader than I thought.

Also, J_Gocht, McCain’s ex wife has proven that story false, and will do so again this year. Don’t repeat it because I know you are smarter than that. This is no excuse for McCain or others’ issues. It’s just not the thread for it. The media will certainly ‘take care’ of the Republicans, no doubt whatsoever.

I feel sorry for his wife and family.

Neocon Peg on August 8, 2008 at 8:03 PM

I feel sorry for Hunter’s child too. Nobody is man enough to come forward and be her father and take responsibility for her. That’s sure to mess her up later in life.

A special foreces guy stooped to the level of alphie, and KP, from last night’s H & C.

Sad, very sad. You can’t even acknowledge that your guys screw around, like the conservative ones do, without excusing it, moral-equivalencing it, and especially the media, who are your biggest whores.

I don’t hold your political or other ideology against you J_Gocht, but you certainly have a better brain than this.

Yes, I know KP wrote an article. Must have coffe before reading it, and comparing it to her H & C debacle.

Asked whether the affair would damage Edwards’ future aspirations in public service, Bonior replied: “You can’t lie in politics and expect to have people’s confidence.”

Oh yeah? Since when?

Is Bonior serious or just plain stupid? Politicians have been lying and covering their tracks since the Republic was founded.
Besides, Bonior needs to cut Edwards a break. After all, it’s Edward’s private life, it’s about sex, it wont affect his duties, and everybody does it.
So show your fake outrage someplace else, Mr Bonior.
