Former Democratic Presidential wannabe John Edwards embarrassed Democrats, Christians, and especially himself in his toadying remarks after beating those sketchy campaign finance charges the other day.
The gist of the charges is that he used a million bucks of campaign money to "hide" his mistress back when he was a clean-cut presidential candidate and his wife was dying of cancer.
It was a rambling admission of sins and regret and all that good stuff that the TV audience needs to see to make it worthwhile watching the news.
To which the think-tank here at Falling Downs replies; WHO FUCKING CARES?
Hey Edwards, you're a shit for cheating on your wife. The fact that she's got terminal cancer doesn't help the optics. But it's not the first time somebody espousing family values got caught dropping their trousers for somebody they're not married to.
Get over yourself!
And that's the advice the think-tankers here have for the twats who pursued this case. You're cut from the same cloth as the Guardians of Public Virtue in places like Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Pants-off time is private time, and I don't care to have public money spent hunting down folks who cheat on their spouses. What's that got to do with anything?
All this attention to his public contrition is just going to make Edwards think he can rebuild his political career.
That's the last thing America needs!
