2. This is because Edwards is the most feared by the right wing
nut job party. I'm sure the media will beat it to death. Weekly World News said that Hillary had an alien love child and Bat Boy was jealous. :dem:

Edited on Wed Dec-19-07 12:27 AM by kurth
and working people have the most to gain.

27. I don't care if the next Pres plays nude Twister in the Oval Office...
with Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and the surviving cast of Diff'rent Strokes, if they can repair the massive shit mess that the drunken coker-doper frat boy has got us into. I'm pretty sure most Americans feel that way right now.

29. There's a surviving cast of Diff'rent Strokes?
Oh... wait... Arnold did run for governor of California, didn't he? California would have been better off with him than what they got.

11. Hillary Delivers Alien Baby
Didn't the Enquirer run that story in 1993?

I think John Edwards should laugh it off, as heartily and publicly as possible. Something along the lines of, "Well, I guess I'm in pretty good company NOW, eh?"

30. True, but it also out-sells Time and Newsweek, hands down.
Which tells us something I'm not sure we'd want to know.

18. if any part of the story is true, esp. her supposedly being in

19. He's DONE because he's from North Carolina??
She's allegedly in North Carolina because that's where her paramour is... a former Edwards staffer, married, who 'fessed up to being the father of her unborn child. She's also issued a statement through her lawyer that Andrew Young, the former staffer, is indeed the father.

Let's not get into guilt-by-geography if we can help it.

20. Facts don't matter to some folks, they're just happy to besmirch
(or sit silently by while someone else besmirches) anyone who gets in the way of their ambitions.

33. Way to lose supporters for Obama
Using GOP style phony scandals against fellow Dems is a new low. Let's keep those tactics out of our own ranks.

31. Let Me Guess..........
The "mother" is a black maid working at his parents home?
No, that was good old Strom.

Ok, how about she's a long time campaign worker in his home district?
No, that was Dan Burton.

Hmm, how about he needed another kid to avoid the Draft?
No, that was Dick and Lynne.

I give up. Besides between the house mess, his haircuts, and now this, I got enough dirt on him. At least that's what I'm suppose to believe.
