National Enquirer ^ | July 23, 2008

[what's up]

I NEVER would give even a small amount of credibility to the National Enquirer

Well, they were right about Frank Gifford, weren't they?

[Vinnie]

Man hands!!

[pgkdan]

That’s the best he could do? Sheesh, he’s prettier than she is.

[Gay State Conservative]

Mrs Edwards must find it very consoling that her hubby is warming up for wife #2.Given that half of what he has is hers she should write her will in such a way as to put a serious crimp in his style....post-Elizabeth.

[DainBramage]

His advisors were beside themselves because he screwed around with someone not pro abortion.

[TomGuy]

I NEVER would give even a small amount of credibility to the National Enquirer.

They are the one who National-ized the Clinton-Lewinski affair.

In their defense they have broken some major stories. Not many, but some.

[mw19]

I know, the National Enquirer! But, if this was untrue, couldn’t Edwards sue them back to the stone age? It’s pretty detailed stuff. He is America’s #1 trial laywer!

[Brett66]

There’s apparently two Americas, those with mistresses and those without.

[yorkie01]

The body’s not even cold and he’s pulling a Juan McCain. Elizabeth, the mansion’s yours and the kids. Sending him packing with his houseboys.

[codercpc]

How can the National Enquirer not have pictures?

Yesterdays article mentioned a photographer, didn't it? Are they waiting to expose them, figuring he will dig himself a hole? He hasn't denied it yet, has he?

[MarkT]

Well, indeed there are two Americas. One, where the rich one has a wife dying of cancer and a mistress w/ a love child and the other where the poor only have a wife dying of cancer.

[tflabo]

Her royal Shysterness....

Rielle Hunter Biography

As a biography, Rielle Hunter is a producer and aspiring actress. She has been described as “formerly hard-partying girl who claims that she found enlightenment.” She is credited with writing and starring in “Billy Bob and Them”.

Rielle met Edwards at a New York Bar. Of the meeting she says,

“I didn’t think it was John Edwards because the public persona did not mesh at all with the person who was sitting in front of me.”

Hunter has a video production company, which was hired by John Edwards on a $100,000, six-month contract to terminate December 31, 2006. The allegations stem from this relationship. Hunter denies all allegations and says their relationship was strictly professional.

Interestingly, the Enquirer also says that Hunter is now living in Chapel Hill, North Carolina in a gated community a few blocks away from Andrew Young, a key official in Edwards’ campaign. Supposedly young has been in charge of looking after Hunter while she stays in hiding. And apparently HE is claiming responsibility for the baby, despite being married with children himself.

Only time will tell if this is true, but it could just be another scandal born of dirty politicking.

Gee, ya think?

[Diogenesis]

Hmmmmm. Even Spitzer pays less for more.

RUSH: Surely, Mr. Snerdley, you jest when you ask me why the mainstream media is not covering this? I think you are just trying to provoke me into mentioning it myself. The National Enquirer, is running an exclusive and they say they have pictures of it. The Breck Girl, John Edwards, having an affair, caught red handed with the babe and his love child at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles either Sunday night or Monday night, I forget the days. And they were watching him. They have been following the story for six months and they saw him go in and they saw him come out. He tried to get out of the hotel at 2:40 a.m. I'm really shortening this up, but he saw them; they saw him, and he ducked into a bathroom in a basement. He had gone in a side entrance to avoid the lobby going in the hotel and coming out. They know the room numbers. There was a woman from Santa Barbara who is the babe, and a guy from Santa Barbara, a friend, drove her down to LA for the meeting with the Breck Girl, and a love child was with him. They had two rooms at the hotel according to the Enquirer. The guy and the baby in one room and the Breck Girl and the babe in another room right down the hall from each other on the same floor. The baby was not part of the meeting for awhile, the Breck Girl said hello to the baby, and then the Breck Girl and the babe were in the room by themselves. No cameras in there, nobody knew what went on. The Breck Girl then tried to leave. The National Enquirer reporters and photographers snapped it.

The funniest part of this to me is the Breck Girl ran into a bathroom and feverishly got on a cell phone calling hotel security to come rescue him. I'm picturing in my head the Breck Girl's combing his hair in there getting ready for his big exit knowing that there are photographers out there. It hasn't been reported anywhere. The story's been contained in the blogosphere. The Enquirer first hinted about this six months ago and, of course, the Enquirer has been taken as gospel in stories involving me with virtually every newspaper organization in the world quoting them. The Enquirer was taken as gospel during the O.J. Simpson trial and even given credit for breaking several news stories. Byron York ran a piece last week at National Review Online in their corner blog and he wondered if this was going to break out into the Drive By Media, will it break out in the mainstream media. The reason you would ask this is, "Hey, he's on the list of potential vice presidential picks for Obama." I'm thinking Obama probably called him up when he heard about this, said, "Senator Edwards, you are not the Senator Edwards that I knew, but I need you to get together with my preacher for some counseling." And then of course everybody, the blogs are all alive, "How could he do this with his wife having cancer," and so forth, that angle. But nobody has any evidence that what was going on in the hotel room was anything other than two people sitting there watching Larry King Live repeats even though it was at like 2:40 in the morning when the Breck Girl tried to escape out of there. And when he was spotted by the media, he acted like they had caught him at something. Have you seen a word about this any today? You haven't. You literally have not. So I'm just picturing the Breck Girl in that bathroom combing his hair on the phone to hotel security begging for a way out of there.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: When this Breck Girl story first hit, a friend of his said, "No, no, no, I'm the one having an affair, that's my love child." And the Enquirer says, "We know that's not true." So they've been following him around for six months trying to prove it and they think they proved it earlier this week. The Breck Girl did what every reprobate guy does: love 'em and leave 'em. Check in the hotel Breck Girl, don't just go in there for a couple hours of quickies and leave at 2:40 in the morning. Check in, pal. Leave at a normal time. Not that I'm an expert, don't misunderstand.

[dearolddad]

That’s the best he could do? Sheesh, he’s prettier than she is.

And he has much prettier hair

[Cedric]

What a load of rubbish, the man is married and his wife has cancer!

No way this scurrilous story is true!

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Rielle must be a lesbian.

Edwards statement from 2007 campaign for Pres.

"Elizabeth and I are so grateful for your prayers and wishes. Your support means a great deal to us during this difficult time.

As you may have heard, yesterday we found out that Elizabeth’s breast cancer is back, but confined mainly to her bones. Although this isn’t the news we wanted to hear, we are very optimistic. Having been through many struggles together in the past, we know that the key is to keep your head up, keep moving and be strong. At that’s exactly what we intend to do.

Elizabeth and I have been married for nearly 30years and we will be in this every step of the way together. We will keep a positive attitude and always look for the silver lining—that’s what we do.

Although the cancer is no longer curable, it is treatable, and many patients in similar circumstances have lived full,normal lives. We expect nothing less for Elizabeth. She expects to do-all the things next week that she did last week.

Our campaign goes on and it goes on strongly. We are so proud of the campaign we have run run—a campaign based on ideas and reaching out to people. This campaign is not about me or Elizabeth—it’s about all the people we have met these past few years and people like them all across America—people struggling with poverty; people worried about feeding and clothing their kids; people facing hardships overseas.

Both of us are committed to this campaign. We’re committed to this cause and we’re committed to changing this country we love so much.

Thank you again for your support and for standing with us."

John Edwards
