More Edwards' Hanky Panky?

CNN reports that John Edwards' political action committee paid his mistress $14,000 after she stopped working for him to obtain 100 hours of unused videotape she had shot for his unsuccessful presidential campaign. However, she had already been paid $100,000 for the programs.

This is a poor attempt to justify a payment in April 2007 to Hunter. The money came from Edwards' OneAmerica political action committee, whose expenditures are governed by U.S. election laws. Willfully converting money from a political action committee for personal use would have be a federal criminal violation. So, now Edwards' will begin the shyster shuffle to avoid the consequences of his actions.

Here's the best part David "Mudcat" Saunders, who served as Edwards' chief adviser on rural affairs said, "I talked to John and he's not doing well,"he's just -- to be very frank with you -- he's just not doing well. He needs to be concentrating on himself and his family at this point in his life. He's a good boy. He just made a hell of a mistake."

A good boy? Not doing well? Good boys don't betray their vows to their terminally ill spouses, lie about it and pay their whore off to keep quiet. Only an morally depraved liberal would describe such a slime ball as a good boy. This was not a mistake, Edwards knew exactly what he was doing, he just didn't expect to be caught.

And, he shouldn't be doing well. Anyone with a conscience should be agonizing over such actions, but not this crew of craven degenerates. Edwards will continue to lie and obfuscate in order to cover up, excuse and justify his disgusting behavior. After all, that is his skill set. He is an ambulance chaser and nothing more.
