If you are angry at John Edwards You must be angry at Elizabeth, too:


She kept her silence for almost two years while campaigning for him like there was nothing wrong, like it had never happened and like they were the Mayberry RFD couple everyone wanted them to be.

They BOTH painted this deceptive picture, and she MUST share the blame for it.

Flame away!!

Anything to absolve Edwards of his adultery. Even if it means blaming a woman with terminal cancer who knows her husband is cheating on her as she is getting chemo.

[LibraryLady]

I saw that and just felt livid!:mad:

Earlier today someone suggested that Edwards wasn't really a Liberal, he was a plant and this was all setup to hurt Zer-0.

OMG!! That's too priceless!!:D

They are way down the river of denial on this one.

ANYTHING not to admit that Edwards cheated on her.

I was just shocked at the blaming of Elizabeth Edwards though. I just can't believe blaming her. I don't know what the heck is going on over at DU.

Edited to add:

It gets worse.

26. To me.. she's the same as Hillary.. Spitzer's wife.. etc.
(snip)

However, if Elizabeth had no clue (which I am thinking may be the case) - then she (and other women who stay with cheating husbands) deserves what she's accepting. Your life is only as good as you make it.. and if she wants to forgive him and can live with that, good for her.

Personally, I couldn't. I'd leave my husband, because I wouldn't want to wonder every single night he came home an hour late where he was, what (or who) he was doing.. etc. But again - that's MY choice for MY life. Elizabeth et. all get to make theirs.

A woman with terminal cancer is going to walk out on her husband? Leave her kids with the job of taking care of her?

And this guy was likely to have been the next Attorney General. Nice...real nice.

Chris Rock has been brought in to help the argument...

"A man is basically as faithful as his options." - Chris Rock - EXPLICIT LANGUAGE WARNING


WARNING FOR THE PURITANS AND PRUDES, the YouTube Video contains explicit language.. don't go there if you don't want to hear something that offends and don't complain to me because I warned you ahead of time:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmLSvtpmT3M&feature=rela...

"See, people...

everybody expects this holy behavior
'cause he's the President.

Expect him to behave this holy way.

He's just the President.
He ain't Rev. Clinton.

lt ain't Pastor Clinton.
lt ain't Maharajah Clinton.

lt is just Bill Clinton.
He's just a man. A man's gonna be a man.

A man is basically as faithful as his options.

That's how faithful a man is,
no more, no less."

....

lt's damn near impossible
for a man to turn down sex.

"lt's hard for a man to turn down sex.

We can stop chasing it,
and even that requires some rehab.

But it's hard for a man to stop.

lf it chase us, we can't run that fast.

lt's gonna catch us, we're like:

''Shit, pulled a hamstring. You got me.''

You can't run that fast."

[ralph wiggum]

Such bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea where to start........

I was diagnosed with cancer about 10 years ago, and still proposed and married my ex-wife.

I hope Edwards dies a fiery and hellish death, he deserves it.

[movie buff]

They're liberals, shifting blame from the perpetrator to the victim is what they're best at.

[Junebug68]

They're liberals, shifting blame from the perpetrator to the victim is what they're best at.

Amen to that. The denial is staggering - next thing you know, they'll be insisting it was all Bush's fault

[FlaGator]

DU mentality... Guy walking down the side of the road gets hit buy a car driven by a DUer. It is the guy’s fault because he should have been farther from the street. Libs love to find ways to abdicate their responsibility in the bad choices that they make.
