How is that funny?
I find it sad that Elizabeth Edwards is dead, while that asshole husband of hers lives on. Life is unfair. I didn't agree with the late Mrs. Edwards on much of anything, but she seemed like a genuinely good person.
John Edwards' daughter left the courtroom in tears Wednesday as a former aide testified about an argument Edwards had with his now-deceased wife, Elizabeth, on the day a tabloid published a story on his affair.
Edwards turned to his daughter, Cate, as witness Christina Reynolds was beginning the account of the argument at the Raleigh airport. As Edwards asked if his daughter wanted to leave, Cate walked out of the room wiping her tears. She later returned to court after a recess.
Reynolds, the candidate's onetime communications adviser, was also a confidante of Elizabeth Edwards. Reynolds recently joined the board of the educational foundation named for Elizabeth Edwards, who died in December 2010 after a years-long fight with cancer.
Reynolds told the court that Elizabeth Edwards asked her over to the family's Chapel Hill home in the summer of 2007 and revealed that her husband had confessed to an affair the previous year. The two women had bonded because they had similar backgrounds in military families.
The following October, Reynolds testified, she observed a very upset Elizabeth Edwards confront her husband at Raleigh-Durham International Airport on the morning that The National Enquirer published a story about the affair. She stormed off and then collapsed in the parking lot, Reynolds said, and the aide and another staff member helped her into the bathroom of a private hangar.
After collecting herself, Elizabeth Edwards came back into the hangar, found her husband and began yelling. She then pulled off her shirt and bra, leaving herself bare-chested, Reynolds said.
"You don't see me anymore," Reynolds quoted the wife as saying.
Reynolds said Edwards didn't show emotion, but that he called his wife's doctor and asked for help.
Edwards has pleaded not guilty to six counts related to campaign-finance violations. He faces up to 30 years in prison and $1.5 million in fines if convicted on all counts.
Matt Nelson, a former scheduler and director of operations for the campaign, testified that he recalled driving another staffer, the candidate and his wife to the airport on the day of the confrontation.
Nelson said Elizabeth Edwards grabbed her husband in a sexual way and demanded, "Is this what you do in New York City?"
According to Nelson, John Edwards tried to get her to stop, saying, "Not in front of our friends," to which his wife responded, "They're not our friends. They're our staff."

The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power." -O'Brien, Nineteen Eighty-Four

LOL
two americas
Because normal women all do this when they are angry at their husbands....

Show me them titties....
ROFL
As the World Turns, there are the days of our lives...
Ugh....certainly a sad situation...then and now (for the daughter)... And yes, I can see a devastated woman acting like that. Devastation is a degree or two beyond anger. As a preacher I have had to deal with some odd behavior of otherwise normal folks when they find themselves in devastating circumstances.
To think that when Edwards was in the running he was among my favorites of the dems. Makes me want to puke.

Yep at one time I thought Edwards might be OK. I also thought Obama might be a change from the Bush way. I was wrong on both counts. Took me till all of May 2009 to relaize that Obama was just another Bush term.
I still do not understand why Reopublicans do not just love the guy.
He keeps the wars going, Baild out a stupid failing finiancial sector, keeps GITMO open, extends tax cuts signs a HCR bill that benefits the HC and insurance industry the most.
etc...

Put blame where it belongs
ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

Bravs - you've gotta stop doing this, and by that, I mean pretending that you're one of the few who "sees things clearly."
You are here on the board to do one thing, and one thing only, and that is to defend the GOP at any and all costs. You're so completely immersed in that deep, dark purple goofy-grape koolaid that you can't see an inch in front of your face.

LMAO!
I see you have not changed a bit. Still talking out your ass.
I only voted for Obama once, did not even vote in the 2008 primary for him was going to vote for hillary but it was all over before then.
I plan on writing in Jon Stewart in November since neither candidate is worthy of my vote but I want to show that I did vote.
