John Edwards needs to be out of everything

Question

I blame our nation to allow such an A**H***! to almost become president. He needs to be taken out of all offices pertaining to politics for the United States. I am disgusted. AND, I am disgusted with those who let such a pig get as far as he did. Everything he ever said or did for this country is NULL AND VOID!!!

Answer 1

You blame the nation. WOW such outrage?

He did not almost become president. He was the 2004 Vice-Presidential running mate and he does not hold any political office currently and has not since 2004.

What does his affair have to do with his accomplishments?

As I see it the two are mutually exclusive.

Did he pass some type of legislation about extra marital affairs?



This is a private matter between Edwards and his wife.

and you blame the nation for his indiscretion WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please who cares.

Answer this how does Edwards affair effect you?

Have you lost your lively-hood, home, family or friends as a result of Edward's affair?

Why is it your business? Are you this outraged about the real issues like healthcare, gas prices, the sputtering economy.

Answer 2

Well, the Democrats backed Bill Clinton for the same things he did before his presidency. They also backed him afer Monicagate-"I did not have s*x with that woman." Wait, we the people elected him, so we are to blame. So why not John Edwards??  

Answer 3

~So I guess, using your rational and insightful logic, we would also have to say that everything presidents Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Clinton ever said or did for this country is "NULL AND VOID".  They all cheated on their wives but it doesn't take away the good they did for this nation.  

And who are those people who you accuse of letting Edwards get as far as he did?  Do you really think he sent out a memo announcing his infidelity?  Get a grip!

What he did may have been morally wrong but it had nothing to do with how he voted in Congress and his voting record speaks for itself.  He did more to benefit the ordinary person in this country than most politicians who also claim to be moral.  Unless you are in their bedroom, you don't know what any politician does.  Nor do you know which TV evangelists are boinking babes (or young boys) while they're preaching morality for you.

George Bush finally (and reluctantly) admitted that he snorted coke in college.  I guess that's okay with you?  

I find Edwards little tryst a whole lot less discomforting than the recent (proven) disclosures about how Georgie and company manufactured phony evidence in order to justify invading two independent and sovereign nations (in order to remove leaders and powers who were installed in power by the US in the first place (yes, I mean Saddam and the Taliban)).  At least Edwards roll in the hay hasn't cost hundreds of billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives and risen anti-American sentiment around the world to an all-time high.  

As to John McCain, other than his sole claim to fame of being shot down and rotting away for years in a POW camp, I'll defer to what the Republicans (especially the Bushman) were saying about him in the last primary.  I couldn't hope to top that although McCain detractors seem to have forgotten all their concerns about Johnnies mental competence and his total lack of leadership abilities or qualities (Conservative Republican conclusions, not mine).  I think it is rather sick and scary that the party that said all those things about McCain such a short time ago is now touting him as their leader and savior.  So it goes.  Elephants might have long memories but it seems the Republican leadership and minions don't.

Yeah, I think I'd rather have my president b*****g bimbos on the side if that's his only shortcoming you can point to.  That worked for Washington, Jefferson, Ike, FDR and  JFK in the White House, to mention a few whom I guess you'd have to disqualify from office to remain consistent.  Then, outside the White House there were Martin Luther King, Jr., Winston Churchill, Wilbur Mills, Anwar Sadat, Menachem Begin, most every captain of industry from JP Morgan to Lee Iacoca, Jim Baker,  Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson (maybe Patty Rob hasn't been caught doing it but he endorses those who do, like Newt Gingrich and Rudy Giuliani)  and scores of thousands of others who have given in to basic human instincts.

Good to see you've got such a clear handle on the real issues of the day.  Do us a favor.  Don't vote.
