Christine This i guess is apart of life when it comes to people and imperfections.Pointing fingers at others when four fingers are pointing back at the one who is pointing the finger.Yes I feel for Mrs.Edwards hurt and can imagine how hurtful she felt or yet feels.And it is also true that people are so disappointed with politians and there seemly betrayal of caring about America when there appears to be indifferent in there relationship.Marriage is a sacrice trust.But I am not standing in judgement of the Senator but glad that He did the right thing.As for as the Media is concerned. The media will do what they have always done.It does not matter who the famous person is.It's the news that America wants even when they say they don't want to know. We love the gossip.

first of all Larry Elder is one of the biggest racist morons in broadcasting when commenting about McCain's Paris Hilton Lindsay Lohan ad he thought what they were getting at is seeing a black man with white women..he tried to debate that fact on hardball on MSNBC..I don't know anyone who got that from that ad..that alone tells you what an idiot that guy is ..as far as Edwards affair ..big deal Clinton did it when he was president ..so did Roosevelt and Kennedy ...So what? politicians are human like the rest of us ..what makes it disgusting is that he cheated while not only married but married to a woman who was going through a traumatic time battling cancer ..only they know what was going on during that time in their lives and it should stay that way..

I did indeed have to put the past blog on the backburner(Blogging 101) as the company has asked me to write a new blog once a week. So... we are at that point. I will try to revisit some it and some of the issues addressed, however, 94 responses made it tough to respond to all as we neared week's end.

So, to stay on message. How 'bout them Olympics?! Anyone see the fabulous Michael Phelps? As a former swimmer, this is one of my favorite competitions. I pulled this copy from the Bloomberg website: "Michael Phelps took the first step on his quest for a record eight titles at the Beijing Olympics.

Phelps broke his world record in the 400-meter individual medley at the Water Cube pool, cheered by U.S. President George W. Bush, to win the gold medal.

He'll race in today's 400- meter freestyle relay as he continues his bid to surpass fellow American swimmer Mark Spitz's seven golds in 1972.

Re: Edwards... I'm with you Media. Am I my best if I kick a man when he's down? Can any of us declare perfection? As voters we do have a right to not choose to vote for a candidate or support one in the future. And that's why this issue may matter. Someone's personal life is not my business... unless of course you are a politician who once campaigned on family values... who may be in line for further political opportunity. It is a shame for the Democratic party who believed Edwards had some policies worth exploring or they wouldn't have selected his as a vice presidential candidate with Kerry. It is now being reported that Edwards will not be attending the Democratic Na

The Olympics have nothing to do with The John "Silky" Edwards issue...

Quick continuation...

The Olympics has nothing to do with the Edwards issue but it is a lot more uplifting and inspiring! My kind of issue. And great idea! Let's always stay just on my original topic... which was Edwards & Olympics. Thanks for the great idea and thanks for being an example.

Meant to include this in above email. National Enquirer "broke the story." Log onto Fox News Channel site for an interview with the editor. Mainstream media facing the question on the morning news shows as to why this was covered only after Edwards came out with an admission of guilt. New cred for the Enquirer????

Any thoughts on this comment from another news outlet? Republican strategist Alex Castellanos said Friday that Edwards' infidelity may affect both parties' images.

Back to the Olympics... USA plays China in basketball today. With Kobe and the boys... a commentator said It may be the most watched basketball game in history.
President Bush there to watch firsthand. So jealous!!

that was an abrupt transition! i was most impressed with the US pommel horse routines. now that john edwards has acknowledged having intercourse with Rielle Hunter, i want to know how he performs in bed. what does he do? i want all the details... just girl talk!

Does John "Silky" Edwards and Rielle Hunter practice safe sex??? The public wants to know...

Christine,

I think I see a political avalanche in the horizon. I feel for Elizabeth Edwards; things like that can break a family apart, and I'm sure you've seen a number of victims with the Wednesday's Child interviews you've done over the years (and yes, the Sunday's child interviews years ago). I just hope those who are salivating over the news will stop dead in their tracks, and rethink their positions. John and Elizabeth Edwards both need a healing to occur in their life together as a married couple. Satan has a devious way of destroying marriages, and we can't let the devil win.

As for the Olympics, it's soothing to watch something for recreation and personal enjoyment. I hope you have fun watching the games; I've noticed you have a very busy schedule.

Now I have one thing to address with one of your responders:

Crafty, aren't you getting a bit jaded? I saw how you took a swipe at Sebar...let's not go there guy! Also, remember that this is only a blog...let's not take a swipe at Christine either. I think she's doing a great job as a blogger, and when she wears the hat as a professional journalist on air, she does it very well and with class!

Christine, your colleagues Amy Murphy and Maria Quiban are 2 of the nicest people I've met this weekend, and I remember when I met you at the Billy Graham Crusade in 2004; the 3 of you are 3 of the finest people I've met from the station. I always enjoy reading your blogs! Take care now.

I say John "Silky" Edwards is planning on making his comeback after.....?
