  • Re: Who Cares?

    notimeforbackup: Jesus, must be nice to be the authority that tells people what and how to think and what they should not be reading. Do you go to the beach and rip books out of others hands? No one cares what you read, I don't care what you think...if you can think beyond Edwards. Darn, it would have been nice to get this much debate ...

  • Swallowing John Edward's Blarney

    The truth is so right there, however, due to his outrageous lies that are defended by his wife, the truth becomes murky; Slate, has become the clearinghouse of truth. Everything this man has done and not done, screams I am the father. The MSM gives him pass after pass. Why is the MSM not screaming, ''Why is his Rielle Hunter living in a three ...

  • adultery is not necessarily a big thing

    i know marital fidelity is a huge issue for some couples, but i don't think everybody feels the same way. some women are happy enough with a good provider who every so often finds sex elsewhere. perhaps the edwards were the sort of couple for whom children, property, and shared career-interests far outweighed shared intimacy. if elizabeth ...

  • John Edwards' Confession

    Show me a rich, good-looking politician who doesn't cheat on his wife and I'll show you a liar! To add fuel to the fire he's a trial lawyer too! If he had been the Republican nominee, instead of a Democrat also-ran, the media would have had this story above the fold on page one. But all they could do was offer some weak counter point in trying to ...

  • A Complete Non - Issue; Sue the Mistress!

    Seriously, isn't this a personal matter???? He's a powerful man in the media spotlight, who women are attracted to!!! BIG DEAL... It's nothing new, and is going on in offices around the country...the only bummer about it is this b*tch he was sleeping with got pregnant when she most likely lied and told him she was on birth control. If ...

  • Edwards

    Oh, ye Mickey Kaus. You wouldn't be so obsessed with Edwards if ye read novels and fiction. Oh ye Mickey, we feel sorry for ye. Johnnie Boy has his foibles and with his wife sick and unable to have sexual relations with him, he strayed because as a man he needed something besides spiritual nourishment. Oh ye Mickey, if ye were a real man and not a ...

  • Why are you obsessed with this, Kaus?

    othing has given me more pleasure in the last days than the reality check Mickey's gotten. His engorged and cavernous self-importance was brought into stark relief. You are a glorified note-taker on the fringes of society, Kaus. You're mean, dour, vindictive and usually add nothing meaningful to the discourse. Nobody's going to give the ...

  • Re: Wrong question, Mr. Kaus

    I'd rather not assault Kaus' charater or the integrity of a rag that, while sensational and a scandal-leech, is not an aliens-and-batboy type rag. We are not experts on Kaus or the NE's journalistic standards. Instead, can't we just posit that: 1. People probably should get mad at the lack of coverage certain stories get; 2. The MSM repeatedly ...

  • The Edwards Photos

    Enquirer just released the photo (singular) and, well, the Emperor has no clothes. That is, the photo, while not necessarily faked, is not even close to damning, is laughable. I stared at it like a Magic Eye image, trying to see the hidden picture and, um, no. No wonder it took so long to release them. So much for the ''tipping point'', ...

  • Casting first stones

    Fine. If the press thinks that Edwards' alleged extra-marital affairs are newsworthy, perhaps they are. But the press needs to be held to the same standards it imposes on others. Prominent members of the news media should be prepared to have their dalliances/love children/whatever publicized as broadly as they themselves publicize the stumbles ...
