What Rielle Hunter Told Me

It's unfortunate that we now know that John Edwards is a MAN...a HU MAN.....and that's OK...That does not take away from what he believes in for the Country. His position regarding health care and poverty is still true. This is a private matter between a married couple....His judgment regarding his marriage is poor???.I want to see how many men will cast the first stone at John Edwards???.We are such hypocrites???These days the media wants to inform us about everything going on in anyone's life....It has become sickening..It???s none of our business???JFK would have been thrown out of the White House with his brother if the media behaved as they do now???..I noticed from the news commentator's that if you want to say something positive about Edwards and his family they redirect the question toward "don't you feel betrayed".....OOOOK...it's disappointing but if Newt came back after giving his wife divorce papers in her hospital bed dying of cancer I'm sure we will get over Edward's affair AND I might add, an affair that Elizabeth Edwards was well aware.

Edwards spent his life scamming the legal system and taking down companies and product lines, putting hard working people out of jobs for his class action scams that built his mansion...while getting his clients next to nothing for damages that didnt really exist. Why he is nothing more than the moral equivilent of a......Liberal....the 33% that will vote for anyone that makes the Dems ticket.

What most disturbs me about the Edwards' affair was that this man asked America to trust his judgement in protecting our nation -- when he didn't have the personal strength to protect his own family. How could he not see this woman is obviously unstable (claiming spiritual enlightenment yet behaving so destructively opposite). Through her actions, she sabotaged the very man she proclaimed could be a "transformational leader" with the "power to change the world." -- how sad for John Edwards and his family.

Give me a break! I am not a John Edwards fan and I do not approve of his affair. In fact, I find it horrendous however, does anyone remember that his wife is dying? What is the point of all this? What good does it do the American public to know of his affair? Other than how mean it is to publish this! Oh, I forgot... it's the publics right to know or is it? Isn't it really about selling stories? If we had known of Lincoln's history of depression, Roosevelt's polio and his affairs and JFK's relationship with the how many women? Would we have elected them? Probably not...so lets let it go and get on with what's really important. Like Iraq, health care and crime. Instead of the sordid details of the Edwards private life.

I don't care what party you belong or what office you hold it seems incredible that these folks feel they can slip under the radar . And it doesn't matter if it's an affair between a man or women or meeting "boys" in the restroom, it is a major attack of stupidity on their part!!! My question is, these people who make such lame choices in life are they really capable of making sound choices as far as our country. Get out of the public eye and stop making our political parties pay for your weakness! kperce

Comment to Angelicabliss: You're the one that's not getting the pcture here. The crap about being a spiritualist, seeker and teacher is a perfect sham. What better way to get to a man in power than to build his ego so high he sees himself as some sort of God. What he didn't realize is she saw him as her meal ticket. She certainly knew exactly what her intent was, from the very beginning. I belive, if she truly intended to be honest, she would have listed "gold-digger" as top billing. Such a shame some men forget where there "thinking" brain is.

Everyone is so hung up with this Rielle and Edwards, the real victem is Elizabeth and the family. Can't we leave it alone.

I'm tired of having my hopes dashed by egomaniacs and puppets. Edwards is the ego-maniac, Hilary was the puppet. I'm holding on to Obama as a person who won't get caught up in all this ridiculousness - so far, he has not let me down, but I'm afraid to be too optimistic. BTW - Mr. Edwards - you will now never be president or even vice-president, hope she was worth it.

I have lost all respect for John Edwards. To think I was, seriously, considering voting for him! The man has absolutely zero integrity to treat his wife this way ... his wife who has been battling cancer and dealing with a multitude of emotions. How nice of him to add just one more thing for her to deal during what is already a difficult time for her and her family. Shame on you John Edwards! Your son would NOT have been proud of you, to be sure. As far as the "other woman" is concerned, she isn't worth the paper it takes to write a comment on about her.

Hopefully he will have a wife and a girlfriend when he gets to prison! Follow the money!

O.K.,was that the end of the story? This lady sounds like a basket case, she's all over the place one minute she's there and the next she's gone. Rielle got what she wanted and the baby is johns.
