Edwards: The Love Child and… Shocking NEW Allegations!
It looks like lying has made things worse for John Edwards!

The National Enquirer's 'Edwards team' sure is working hard to uncover the 'truth'.

Here's some of the latest stuff they've scooped:

- The day prior to Edwards' 'tell all' on ABC’s Nightline, Rielle Hunter and Edwards' alleged baby were flown out of the US to St. Croix onboard a chartered Learjet. The private flight cost $50,000 and was paid for by Edwards’ pals.

- Reporters discovered Rielle and the baby stayed in a luxurious oceanfront home owned by controversial trial lawyer Lee Rohn, a close friend of John Edwards.

- When an Enquirer reporter approached Rohn on August 15th, the Edwards friend snapped a terse “No comment!” when questioned about Hunter. After the tabloid discovered Rielle’s hideaway with Rohn, she was moved to a motel on the island before returning to Santa Barbara on August 17th.

- Rielle's Santa Barbara home is reportedly being paid for by Edwards’ former finance chairman Fred Baron.

6. Nah, I still dont' even believe Edwards had the affair.
Edited on Wed Aug-20-08 12:24 PM by rynobales
He wouldn't do that to his wife with cancer. I think this is all a publicity stunt he engineered. You know how they say, "No press is bad press"? He's seeing how well McCain is doing with the affairs under his belt and is just hoping some of that will rub off on him. Maybe he's even playing his cards for a VP nod from???

8. Since the tabloids are so good at the investigative reporting of scandals, maybe they
could stop beating this dead horse and turn their laser sharp skills to uncovering just how involved our government, the Republican Party and John McCain were in starting this war in Georgia? Just some of what is starting to leak out is implicating Karl Rove and John McCain to begin with. Inquiring minds want to know.

14. Even more shocking allegations! Bush still evil!
I don't give a tinker's cuss about whom John Edwards is doing and why.
OK, infidelty sucks (no pun intended) and lying about it don't help.

But, given the chance, I'd vote for Edwards tomorrow over ANY lying, scheming, truly disgusting, war-mongering, self-righteous republican.

The man's career is ruined. What else do we want?
Bush & Cheney murder tens of thousands and trash the constitution and that's fine.
What a seriously F%#*ed up country we are.

20. I Just Hope That He Doesn't Hurt Himself Over this... The Whole Thing Is More Disturbing By The
Minute for John and His Family... The STINK'N article has him saying that "We'll Be Together when Elizabeth is gone." I have met John Edwards and while how could I know that much about him in so brief an encounter, the guy is not an asshole such as this lying whore who supposedly "loves" him is making him out to be... This smiling piece of shit on the cover of the nat enq needs to be stopped NOW w/ an INJUCTION? :wtf: :puke:


The health and well being of John and his family is at risk the longer this "act" continues by this scumbag B_itc_!

21. Who is to say that it isn't all true?
Edited on Thu Aug-21-08 08:19 PM by tritsofme
He's been lying about this from the start.

And everything that has come out so far has confirmed my darkest fears about his character.

Besides which, I certainly don't like the idea of the court system protecting politicians from embarrassing situations of their own design.

24. Hurt himself?
He fucked a woman that was not his wife. It's a little too late to worry about hurting himself.

23. I believe every word of it
John Edwards did a very good job of making the National Enquirer more credible than he is.

At this point, in a "he said - she said" match between Edwards and the Enquirer - I belive the Enquirer.

I can't believe he turned out to be such a dirtbag.
