John Edwards: Cheater, Wife Beater?

How does a liberal prove his manhood? By cheating on his cancer-stricken wife, denying the affair and paternity of his bastard child (fortunately, Edwards has the cash to cover the psychiatric bills), and then beating aforementioned wife for daring to complain about it:

Disgraced former presidential candidate John Edwards reportedly beat his cancer-stricken wife during a horrific marriage-ending fight.

"John lost his temper big time," a close friend of Elizabeth's revealed to the National Enquirer. "She has the divorce papers drawn up, but she can amend them to charge John with domestic violence."

The couple's furious confrontation was the "final straw" in Elizabeth's decision to end their 32-year marriage after it was revealed that he had fathered a child out of wedlock with his ex-mistress Rielle Hunter, the newspaper revealed today in a bombshell report on its Web site.

Well, it's the New York Post channelling the National Enquirer, so...I believe it. Hey, they were right about Edwards all along. Now if it were a story from the New York Times - like their front-pager on John McCain's non-existent affair with a staffer - then I wouldn't have shamed myself by posting on it....

And John doesn't have much to worry about, really. If he wants to run for office, NOW and Emily's List will still support him...after all, what's the alternative? Supporting a Republican? They would sooner submit to genital mutilation....

Regardless, the pattern of recent liberal icons is pretty clear, even to the most dim-witted amongst the Left, and it goes like this:

John Edwards: Phony. Hillary Clinton: Phony. Barack Obama: Mega-phony.

What is it with these liberal icons? Is there an honest man (or women) among them? Besides Joe Lieberman, of course, who has been ostracised from the Democratic party for his honesty and independence.

And even worse...how sad is it that our self-appointed "intellectual elite" don't have the common sense to see through these self-centered charlatans, and keep falling in love with them every single time....?
