First off, there has never been any standards or morals in the democratic party, so many others have committed a multitude of crimes, abuses of power, tasteless behavior and horrendous behavior (Barney Frank running a gay escort service from his home is one of many examples).
Edwards, compared to most liberal leadership is squeaky clean. The Kennedy family, where would you start? These elitists are full of rehab screw-ups, alcoholics, adulterers, many have committed serious crimes- rape, DUI manslaughter and leaving the scene of a fatal accident, murder (Skakel), DUI's, the whole clan living off of the blood money earned by Irish mafia gangster, papa Joseph Kennedy.
The Clinton's crimes, abuses of power, scandals, witness intimidation, serial adultery, are so numerous, there is no room to list them all; its doubtful there is any of the charges that are not true, imagine how many more they got away with, we don't know about.
Here comes John Edwards, his true unforgivable act was playing the "vote for me, my wife is dying" card. John Edwards is a personal injury lawyer, in his mind, exploiting his wife's illness was not in his top 100 of most tasteless acts. FYI Elizabeth Edwards, was a mean spirited, ambitious, ruthless, power hungry lawyer, who directed most of Edward's political strategy. Elizabeth was no soccer mom or victim, read Andrew Young's book, if you want to know about the real Elizabeth.
Edwards did exactly what Jessie Jackson did and many other socialists. Jessie got an employee pregnant, paid her off with tax exempt charity funds and forgave himself over the weekend, after his scandal broke out. Edwards is no worse, but he is thrown under the bus. Edwards has no race cards to protect himself from scrutiny, is this the difference, Edwards is white?
Rarely do democrats care about wrong doing of their own; when you wrap yourself with the socialist flag, all wrong doing is perfectly fine, actually expected.
But Edwards, is unable to get a pass, like so many other liberals, why? Why is Edwards tossed under the bus, while so many other liberals who have done, far worse, are worshiped by liberals and their media?
