Poll question: How Long Before John Edwards Publishes a Tell-All Book and Goes On Tour?
Edited on Mon Aug-11-08 11:09 PM by DeadElephant_ORG

And who will buy more copies of his salacious mea culpa? Democrats, Republicans, or Independents...?


The harm that Edwards has done - and is very likely to continue to do - is to this PARTY, and to the progressive movement as a whole. The harm to his family, and to himself, is entirely his own business. His sexual morality is his own business.

But John's continuing public deceit is OUR BUSINESS. He lied again on national television just 2 days ago. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/08/09/john-edwards-false-assert_n_117925.html) And those who defend him, who trivialize his actions, or who attack fellow Democrats who raise this concern, are encouraging John Edwards to do further harm in the mistaken belief that our party excuses him.

So... when do YOU think that book tour is coming? Never? Are you SURE?

6. You. Are. Obsessed. What is your problem?
Edwards isn't our nominee. Didn't you know that?

8. Jesus... such drama.
Why don't you march on down to Chapel Hill and give him a hearty scolding?

Americans have very short attention spans. I'm already bored with this topic...

21. It's one thing to post about an article or something.
This is just extra bashing for no reason. Not satisfied with just commenting on the facts, you post about nothing much in order to start a flame war with Edwards supporters.

And now I see you appear disappointed that hardly anyone took the bait, and are re-chumming the water. Good luck with that.

Bit transparent though, just so you know.

28. the point about the book tour means "nothing much", eh?

I'm not interested in flame wars with Edwards supporters. But I am surprised to have discovered how intolerant some folks on this board are when confronted by uncomfortable facts. You'd think that I pissed in their Kool-aid.

As to "re-chumming the water", I'm sure you'd prefer that I not respond when DUers like yourself attempt to bully me - and anybody else who thinks what Edwards did is worth our talking about. But I don't cower to your intimidation.

13. Probably about the same time you stop ragging on him
Really, your obsession with his penis is somewhat... unseemly.

16. He won't, but the woman will.
Once the money stops coming in, and it becomes evident she'll never be Mrs. Edwards, she'll be dying to tell her story in a book and on TV.

who needs the money and stands to make it from a 'tell-all' book. And I don't think she gives a rat's a$$ whether it kills Elizabeth.

27. If by "standing" you mean a ruthless intolerant bully who can't abide opinions contrary to her own..
then I agree. She's got standing all right.

I am not second to you, to Catwoman, or to anybody. You can't bully me into silence. Go ahead and try.

cheers!
