There's only one way to finally settle this Edwards scandal:

Won't they be able to confirm he's the father just by looking at the kids hair?

Asked Thursday why no father was listed on the birth certificate, Hunter's attorney, Robert Gordon of New York, said, "A lot of women do that."

Sounds like Edwards really gets around.

Why am I supposed to care about this?

DamnYankees: Why am I supposed to care about this?

Because he's a.. umm.. well he used to.. well, uh..look! 9/11!

/dashes away.

It's Not News, It's Trolling for Click-through Payments!

This is really pathetic. If this is what stirs you up, you need to stop watching Fox, get out of your basement, and get some perspective.

/got a click from me, you farkign weasels.

It's not like it's some independent blog, it's the website of the Charlotte Observer, a paper that has been continually in print since 1869.

Even a green light on Fark probably won't make a big difference in their overall traffic.

Virgin birth.

Exactly, the Brill Cream will be a definite giveaway.

Hey, can somebody call and wake me when I'm supposed to be upset about this?

Wow. The father's not named on the birth certificate. The mother insists it's not Edwards. Yet the National Enquirer claims that it is, but they're not going to show the "proof" to anybody 'cause they're "not ready yet" even though they're obviously trying to milk the "scandal" for all it's worth as we speak.

P.T. Barnum (or Joseph Smith, for that matter) would be laughing his ass off. People will buy anything if you put it next to the cash register.

Is there some way to filter out every headline mentioning "Edwards" on the main page for about another two weeks or so?

Only half-serious, but still...

You have to give the National Enquirer some props for staying on to a story, maybe they should have a media pass at the White House.

Malbar: Who do Democrats have such a difficult time keeping their dicks in their pants? Poor self-control?

At least they're still having heterosexual sex.

/NTTAWW teh gays.

ninjakirby: uh..look! 9/11!

Have you no decency, sir? 9/11 is no joke. You should have more respect for the people who died on that fateful evening.

Psst... it was morning over here, friend.

Since I don't care either way I'll just post a pic that amuses me.

I know; it was an attempt at some form of sarcasm. Which, as I can see now, was not particularly successful.

Makes about as much sense as the leftists in the mainstream press taking any Republican sex scandal story from Larry Flynt as gospel.

That didn't make it into the mainstream press any more than this bullshiat did.

Sure he did. There's nothing wrong with teh ghey, but there's tons wrong with pushing an anti-gay agenda while secretly seeking bathroom bjs. Those people deserve to feel shame for a whole host of reasons.

Republicans are easy. All you have to do is quote their indictment or arrest record. Besides, even if it were true, a story about a hetero male having a baby with an actual woman is far less titallating than the wide stance/page boy boning GOP crowd. Sorry.

Subby fails for use of "interesting" tag.

DamnYankees: Why am I supposed to care about this?

Everyone seems to care when it's a Republican...

This guy is a popular Democratic leader who preached he was a family man. Meanwhile he's out fathering children while his wife is battling Cancer.

If this was 28 yrs ago it could be John McCain.

I don't know if he "preached" about being a family man, but I think you're comparing apples and some other fruit that nobody's ever heard of.

The difference between this and, say, Newt Gingrich is that Newt's party didn't just claim to be family oriented, but a huge part of their platform was discussing how the world was going to shiat because of the failure of marriages. Everything they do, like stoppin' gays from doing it, is done to protect the sanctity of marriage.

Yeah, should this be true, it is terrible and I feel bad for his wife. But I don't think he is some sort of hypocrite, on par with someone actively legislating against teh homoz while blowing off aides in the congressional bathrooms.

It's not just that he did this while his wife is battling cancer. She's in rough shape. But, instead of laying on a beach in St. Tropez, or wandering through Renaissance churches in Italy, or taking a cruise through the Orient--she spent one of the last years of her life getting up at 4am to smile and wave at people in Buttfark, Iowa--all in the name of furthering his sorry ass career. Instead of worshiping the ground she walks on until she finally slips away, and honoring her for this huge sacrifice she's made for him-he steps out on her, fathers a child, and humiliates her in front of her friends, her family-the world. What could be more devastating?

That's a character flaw that's in a whole different universe than anything Larry Craig ever did, IMHO....

"I don't care about this, which is why I clicked the link and left this comment."

This guy was a serious contender for President and VP. The fact that he is a Democrat, forces many TFers to deny this is even an issue. It's cute.

Someone get a video of when Edwards looks his children in the eye and smiles and lies as to why their 'other brother' does not live in a big fancy house like they do.


dirtbag.

What are they talking about? Did they even look at the birth certificate?

Show me where that happened.

I still say that until there are pictures, this goes in the same BS bin as "whitey"...

Is it a political issue? Not so much. Only because Edwards never tried to pass legislation against cheating on your wife. The difference here is how a lot of the Republicans we've caught with their pants down have done exactly that. Pushed anti-gay legislation while they tried to have cyber sex with their male teenage assistants or tried getting a BJ in the airport men's room.

I think the issue here is that John Edwards is just a complete douchebag. Cheating on your wife is bad enough, but doing it while she has cancer and is still out supporting you? Wow. That's hall of fame douchery right there.

It's a good point, assuming he doesn't have an understanding with his wife.

And assuming it is true, of course.

All you have to do is listen to Elizabeth Edwards speak for about 10 minutes and you know there's no way in HELL she'd agree to an "arrangement" with that smarmy sonofabiatch....

Well, that's all the proof I need. fark you, John Edwards, you filthy farking adulterer.

Let me be the first to say lighten up Frances.

/actually look at the certificate

That tears it, he's not getting MY vote this fall!

Gerry Studds, Barney Frank, Frank Richmond and others would beg to disagree with you.

Noboy gives a shiat because we come to expect this from democrat leaders. I guess if you're a filthy lawyer scumbag weasel, you have a party you can call home.

Ok, oh enlightened one, why should the American public care about this? How does this effect you, me, and the American public? How does this effect the standing of the American Democracy? What laws did he break that will effect anything we do?

If you answer these questions with a good answer then I will take your point and focus my outrage.

We are not "filthy."
