Edwards Still Doing Whatever He Wants

John Edwards, another lying Democrat, although forced to admit his disgusting behavior, is hardly humbled by it.

Edwards said in his admission, "... being 99 percent honest is no longer enough." What does that mean?

When first confronted about his affair, he called the accusations
"false" and "ridiculous."He lied. Later when asked, he said "I have no idea what you're asking about." He lied.

He also said, "I have responded to, consistently, to these tabloid allegations by saying I don't respond to these lies." There is some truth in that, what he was responding to was the truth.

Instead of admitting he deliberately made the choice to cheat on his wife and hurt his family, he uses phrases such as "a serious error in judgment." He excuses himself by saying his rise from "a small town boy in North Carolina" who "came from nothing" to a successful lawyer, U.S. senator and national public figure "fed a self-focus, an egotism, a narcissism that leads you to believe that you can do whatever you want."

Like all liberals, John is the victim, not the family he betrayed and not the public he lied to. It's our fault for expecting the men who lead us to have character and integrity.

It would be nice if Johnny Edwards would just slink back into private life, but this admission will probably catapult him into the liberal limelight as one of their own darling demons.
