"It was Judith Miller at the “liberal” New York Times who served up as fact all the neocon disinformation about Saddam Hussein and his weapons of mass destruction and al Qaeda connections. Without the New York Times leading the way, the neocons could never have pulled off their illegal invasions."

"It was ABC News that served up the neocon disinformation that the anthrax had been traced to Saddam Hussein. And, today, August 9, 2008, as I write, it is the “liberal” Washington Post that has written an editorial urging the US to go to war with Russia."

- Paul Craig Roberts, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration.

Don't ya love kool-aid drinkers lecturing and looking down their noses at you telling you to look at something reasonably and objectively? Classic Far-Leftist Liberal...

Of course this guy thinks that George Bush lied to get the U.S. to go to war in Iraq. An assertion that has been proven to be false by both liberal and conservative media outlets. Anyone who still hold onto that conspiracy theory has no reason to enter into any rational discussion.

In this day and age of Youtube and the internet, etc., once you are in the public eye, you can forget about privacy. What you do behind closed doors often times relates to how you conduct yourself the rest of the time. If you break your marriage vows and then go on national television and boldly lie to the public about it, what's to keep you from breaking your vows to public office? Good riddance, John-boy! You've got a baby to take care of...

She hasn't exactly forgiven him. It was reported that she was in distress after the announcement, and considered the pros and cons of staying with him or kicking his azz to the curb. She is not in the best health to just start fresh, but he is not forgiven.

Yes I'm serious. From what I understood during his interview, he had told his wife about the affair before it went public and she had forgiven him. Either way, it's their business.

Plenty of interesting responses here! Can you imagine if John Edwards were a Republican instead? Boy Oh Boy...the leftist media would have gone after him like a bunch of merciless rabid bats chasing the moon! It's like the scandal King David went through with Bathsheba: David saw a hot looking woman, did the deed with her, got her pregnant, then schemed to hide it by trying to get Bathsheba's hubby to do what husbands and wives do. Edwards sees Hunter, takes a continuous roll in the hay with her, behind his wife's back, and gets her pregnant. His cohorts in the left behind wing turn a blind eye to the truth. Back to David and Bathsheba: Uriah the hubby stays loyal to David's army, and refuses to sleep with Bathsheba until the war is over. King David gets Uriah killed in a battle, then takes Bathsheba as his wife. John-boy relies on his left behind cohorts to stay quiet. God sends the prophet Samuel to expose David. God uses a smart thinking reporter in the National Enquirer to stay on John-boy's smelly secret, and humiliates the left behind goonsquad. Now, unlike King David, who openly confesses, Johnboy and his Satan Possessed left behind whackjobs lie to the public's face, and tries to fling poo at the National Enquirer. What a huge difference! Kudos to you ddain!

Yeah, and the local TV news is a BIGGER joke than those two rags...

ha! How amusing. The reason the "Liberal/Leftist Media" is a bit harder on Republicans is because they all claim to be so holier than thou. Homosexuality is wrong, abortions are wrong, keeping God out of everything is wrong..etc..that's why they're a huge joke when they fall on their face.
Democrats, Liberals, whatever- are less anal, so when they fall, it's not as funny.

Adultery is about as bad as fornication & homosexuality. Keep that in mind when casting stones.

You'd have to ask him that. imo, The physical act itself is different, obviously, but they're all sins.
My point is that no one's perfect and whether its adultery, lying or cheating, stealing, etc...every single politician does it, commits sin that is, in one way or another.
Sorry but I don't think John is a horrible man, what he did was wrong, no doubt, but that doesn’t make him evil.
All this media attention is really silly imo and I have no idea what you mean by this is out of character for me. I also believe in a woman’s right to choose, but not late or partial birth abortions, and that homosexuals should have the same and equal rights as every one else, meaning marriage, but it shouldn’t be called “marriage” it should be called a “civil union”. I believe that citizens should have the right to bear arms because guns don’t kill people, people kill people, and anyone who wishes to enter this country should do so legally, U.S. borders should be secured, but I think we should do more to help those people in their own countries, meaning more $$$. Just thought I’d throw that out there.
Oh yeah, I also reserve the right to change my mind on any issue at any time for any reason.
