Please Let It Be True
John Edwards, self-regarded Most Beautiful Man Alive™, is one of the most odious examples of the duplicitous politician. His wife is dying and he did the dirty on her.
A finer example of scumbag behavior, I do not know.
The National Enquirer is reporting that a federal grand jury in Raleigh is investigating whether former Edwards violated campaign-finance laws in his 2008 bid for president by making payments to Rielle Hunter, his bit on the side. The investigation purportedly also involves the FBI and IRS.
I know what you’re thinking. The National Enquirer normally specializes in Richard Gere/gerbil-type stories (am I going to get sued for mentioning that?), but there are sometimes nuggets of gold among their droppings.
For now, the mere suspicion that this could be happening is enough for me.
Saturday has gotten off to a wonderful start.

I’ve no doubt, given the complexity of the laws, that he can be found guilty of something. Whether this statement is more negative towards JE or the law is an exercise for the reader.
