The ones who deserve sympathy are the children and the parents of this man whose ego and deceit, caused those innocents to live with shame and disappointment.

A review of the timing of events reveal that Elizabeth, an attorney and Democrat Party "star," chose to personally provide cover and strong endorsement of him to the American voters long after she knew that he had deceived them and her. She, herself, knowingly put the Party and the country at risk, should he have pulled off his charade and become the Party's candidate or, heaven forbid, the nation's President.

Compassion for her illness and her personal struggle is due her. But, finding her blameless in this tremendous affront and perpetration of the myth of John Edwards' worthiness as an honest and honorable family man who deserved to be a trusted President is not acceptable.

According to the same source, and if true, her own ego and derision of Edwards' so-called "redneck" upbringing in his NC hometown reveals her own ambitions for power and national status to be undesirable also. The honorable community where he grew up has produced leading educators, ministers, physicians, attorneys, nurses, professors, bankers, and leaders in many fields, including an outstanding astronaut who graduated from the same high school as Edwards. That community does not deserve the disdain of someone who once aspired to be the nation's first lady.

Each of us has a "terminal" condition. Some can identify the disease. Some cannot. That, alone, is not deserving of sympathy when someone is aiding in perpetrating a fraud of the scale these two were engaged in.

I wonder if Reille and the new baby are staying at the beach house?

Any bets as to how long it will be until “Silky, the wonder-pony” is divorced and remarries declaring Rielle (or some other bimbette assignation) to be his soulmate?

Or how long the Socialist tabloid media waits until they assist/aid/abet in reforming his public persona?

Whatever sins of commission or omission, Elizabeth Edwards has made in her life; the burdens she now carries are unimaginable.

Cancer treatment is a walk in the park compared to the ultimate betrayal by the father of your children - the public humiliation of his flaunting of the whore and their poor illegitimate child - and the reality that her own children are also suffering indignities.

We should never be so unlucky.

“Historically, John Edwards was a huge proponent for health care coverage for all Americans when he was running for president.

But the disgraced former candidate recently balked at paying a $5,000 dental bill for his love child daughter, who is uninsured, say sources.

Edwards’ mistress Rielle Hunter took their daughter Frances - who turns 2 in February - to a dental specialist in Charlotte, N.C., in late December because the child had developed tooth decay.

‘Rielle can’t believe that she had to have her lawyers fight with John’s attorneys to get this taken care of,’ said the source.

“Frances is doing fine now, but Rielle is still fuming mad that their daughter has no insurance and that she had to beg John to foot the dental bill.”

Shouldn’t there have been an “unexpectedly” in that headline?

“ELIZABETH EDWARDS SUICIDE THREAT”

“I’M GOING TO KILL MYSELF!” John Edwards’ distraught wife Elizabeth screamed those horrifying words during a suicide attempt after finding out her husband’s mistress was pregnant with his love child.

You would have to be an idiot if you didn’t see this coming.

Huh?

Elizabeth Edward is as bad or worse then her husband when it comes to ethics.

1) She lied to the media and public about affair while her husband was running for president. She want the fame and prestige of the White House almost as bad as her husband.

“John told Elizabeth about the affair shortly after he announced for the presidency in December 2006.” See her fame tour on Oprah and her book, “Resilience”.

2) Elizabeth continued the fraud after the National Enquirer expose by again lying to the media and the public.

3) Elizabeth also posted anonymously on the Huffington Post savaging Rielle and her child as fraud despite knowing that those claims were false.

Good to see you too! This book is going to be quite a movie. Maybe Brad Pitt will get a new hairstyle and play Edwards...

>> I feel so sorry for her <<

You shouldn’t. Please take time to bring yourself up to speed. The stories I’ve read about her indicate she’s just as despicable as John-Boy — although in different ways.

In particular, her moral corruption in enabling Johnnie’s behavior — and even worse in helping cover it up — all the while playing on the public’s sympathy for her cancer, may mark a new low in American political depravity.

No, men like Edwards only want one thing from women like Rielle. And women like Rielle only want one thing from men like Edwards. They used each other and they both got what they deserve. They probably detest each other. Too bad an innocent child got caught in the middle.
