Thanks, DU - I really needed it.

That Edwards thread is pure fucking gold.

So are many, many others :rofl:

DUers have the BEST sense of humor. And irony.

8. Just want to say, from this point forward, I can no longer support
any candidate for higher office if they have indoor plumbing.

Deprivation! Suffering! It's the only noble path.

10. Hi, Cat Woman. Nice to see you on DU as always.
We're all havin' us a little romp over there in that Edwards big house thread.

Trumad... Old & in the Way... everybody. Just some real deep laughs here at my house at what people have posted.

I'm a refugee from the Kerry camp in the market for a candidate. Haven't picked one out yet but I don't think John and Elizabeth Edwards should be held to Depression-era standards. It's ok with me if they build themselves a house for those 2 little children to play in.

Hope you're doin' well.

11. Just keep up the good work, OC
:hi:

I liked Edwards in 2004, and I like him now, in spite of his penchant for indoor plumbing and electrical wiring :)

13. LOL! I think your admiration for Edwards is well-placed.
I've heard him speak a couple of times and I just do not see a fake bone in the man's body. His words sound like they're coming out of the true part of him when he talks to people.

And Elizabeth is the class act of the American South.

12. Two children aren't enough.
They need to buy at least a half-dozen more.

14. There was talk of the despair in the Edwards household after Wade's
death. I imagine that Kate, the older daughter, was the blessing she always was, but I'm told that Elizabeth and John wanted the noise and energy of small children in the house again, and along came the two younger ones.

At this point in the game I only like one thing about John McCain: his decision with his wife Cindy to adopt a Bangladeshi daughteer. That is totally cool. After that, his politics leaves me pretty cold.

On children, I think Elizabeth and John Edwards seem to know what they're doing. I have the feeling that their children are loved and respected.

It's ok with me if they have a big house where that takes place.

33. Hi, chimpymustgo. That thread was a real romp. I think a lot of us
needed to have some kind of fun after Dubya's dismal and dreary State of the Union speech, and it must have all come out in that thread.

34. I giggled again re-reading that.
Of course now the thread is full of holier than thou, looking down their noses nags - pushing all your great posts downthread. But that was hellacious for a while.

Thanks, man!

35. I hear you on the argument going on about the Edwards' new digs.
With my candidate newly withdrawn from the 08 race, I'm in the market for a new candidate. Where he or she lives isn't a high priority.

As for John and Elizabeth Edwards, my take is that they seem extraordinarily capable of loving kids, of giving kids a wonderful introduction to the world, with a kind of firm and principled guidance for right and wrong, but also one of great affection and tenderness and fun.

What a collosal improvement that kind of tone and temperament would be from the current residents of the White House.

Bill Frist is also buildling a new house in Nashville, said to be architecturally VERY similar to the White House. I wonder why the people slamming the Edwards' house don't turn their rifles toward Frist?

15. Edwards is finished in my book unless
he starts living in his car. Just because the son of a mill worker works hard, it doesn`t mean he should buy a nice house.

16. I'm still laughing at the image of Jackie O in rags churning butter...
And Caroline and John, Jr. as "skeletal waifs" begging for food!

I haven't laughed that hard in a while!!!

17. That is indeed a classic. We should petition the admins to create
an archive of these threads, a "Best of DU" so to speak. Damn, that was guffaw funny!
