Here's a John Edwards quote from during the Clinton Presidency:

"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."

Well to be fair, I do believe there is a difference between a garden variety extra-marital fling and routinely getting hummers while on the sitting in the oval office on the telephone with heads of state.

Is that Deb Patterson's sister?  :yuck:  Christ, if you're going to have an affair make it worth it.  Did they not learn anything from JFK?

The whole reason Clinton decided to allow disbarment was because there was evidence of affairs involving penetration with Lewinsky that were never revealed if he accepted the punishment after his term.

Infidelity, in of itself, is a problem of moral character but one I don't think is a big issue.   Lying about it is much worse.   When you go before the country and tell everyone you NEVER HAD SEXUAL RELATIONS with a woman, only to quibble over the meaning of the word "is", shows his character was in question.

He'd have been better off just going up and saying "Look, I did this. I'm not proud, but I did it." and that would have stopped everything.  Sure, it would have been painful for his family, but a lot of wasted time and resources in special investigations could have been avoided.

Lying about sex vs. Lying about war


the former is impeachable.  the latter is patriotic.

Of course the former was completely provable, the latter is much more difficult to prove simply because it's difficult to know who knew what and when, especially when throwing in faulty CIA information and likely plausible deniability.

Don't worry....you don't need proof.   You just have to have "faith," right?

Are you trying to turn this into an evolution vs "not so" intelligent design thread?

Whoa now!  What's with all the seriousness? 

This thread was meant to poke fun at Edwards, and his choice of mistress.  Nothing more.  :shy:

Meh she's not bad for his old ass (he's like 56 years old.)  Good thing I got behind Obama from the start.  Some chick I knew in NC told me that he's a bit of a douche, so turns out she was right.

I was a HUGE Edwards supporter over the past 4-6 years.  Even went to the Tom Harkin Steak Fry in Iowa and watched each of the '08 candidates speak. 

I now believe that John Edwards is a massive piece of shh!!T.  I could care less if he bangs some broad.  But, the narcissism that it requires to go into a an election bid while knowing that your affair is "known" is amazing.  The waste of resources is staggering.  Thank God this POS didn't win the nomination.   Someone isn't getting a Christmas card from the Clinton's this year.

i don't know.  I mean, if he's willing to do that to his wife who's dying of cancer, think about what he'd do to terrorists.

After a few drinks you'd consider it, don't lie.

Remember when John McCain cheated on his first wife?  That was a hoot.  http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-divorce11-2008jul11,0,6546861.story?page=1
