If true, this speaks volumes about his judgment. All I can say is, "Yuck". http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/01/25/an_edwards_sex_tape.html I'm reminded of this commercial http://www.hulu.com/watch/10310/saturday-night-live-bad-idea-jeans
Too bad he wasn't our vice president, finally we would have a politician with atleast a little class. But no, we are stuck with Biden. And honestly I do not want to know what kind of sex acts he has committed on video.
If you look, you will see that we have had a number of people in that position in both parties that were a fry short of a Happy Meal. Politics is scary.
I don't understand the big deal. Cheating on one's wife is a much bigger deal than making a sex tape. I'm not sure that making a sex tape of cheating on your wife is any worse than merely cheating on your wife. Ed O.
It's about judgment. If you're a politician and you want to cheat on your wife, it can be done discreetly. Making a sex tape? That's just stupid. There goes your plausible deniability.
I hear what you're saying, but (you knew there was gonna be at least one "but," right?) He has a child with her, right? I think that it's much easier to hide a tape than to hide a child. Secondly, presumably a main reason he cheated was for the thrill of it. Making a sex tape can make things much more thrilling... I blame him MUCH less for the tape-making than for the cheating. It seems his judgment is already SO bad that any level of discretion is not going to ameliorate it, so he might as well have fun. Ed O.
When John Edwards is actually a heartbeat away from the Presidency, which he never was, your argument, statement, troll, or whatever point you are trying to make other than a Nelson "HA HA!", with the same amount of maturity and relevance, will matter. Until then, *YAWN*
Nice try, but a swing and a miss. Just as Sarah Palin deserves to be ripped as almost "a heartbeat away from the Presidency" when her stupidity comes to light, so does John Edwards. IIRC, Kerry/Edwards was a lot closer to winning the election than McCain/Palin ever was. It has nothing to do with laughing at the situation. It was posted to highlight just how bad Edwards' judgment was.
As opposed to Bush's, who attacked the wrong country for 9/11? Who stated ad nauseum how he had no interest in bringing bin Laden to justice? Who took the biggest budget surplus in history and turned it into the biggest deficit, nearly destroying the mightiest economy in the world (ours)? Who let his underlings torture people in our name? We're talking about an epic 8 year-long failure of judgement, or possibly the total lack of any ability to judge. Any sane person would say Bush had much worse judgement than Edwards.
As for the author of the National Enquirer-style expose', he's a lowlife parasite who thankfully has traded any political aspirations he had for a quick payday and a daytime talkshow tour.
And any sane person would not respond to every criticism of a Democrat with "The Republican was just as bad or worse."
