Here’s a nice try at making affairs OK from WCCO.

‘U Of M’ Doctor Explains Edwards’ Admitted Affair

I’m sorry, I have never liked John Edwards. He’s always seemed like a slickster and a trickster. But now that we now know for sure that he cheated on his wife, it makes it even easier.

Any man or woman that cheats on their spouse is a low life. Especially those that run around pretending that ‘they are the one and only’. Let’s not forget that his wife is dying of cancer. That became an issue last year during the Democratic primary battle. Elizabeth Edwards announced she was terminal with cancer and John Edwards decided to keep running. He said she’d want him to keep running.

Well, I guess we now know why John would leave his wife to run for President. His heart was not fully committed to her. Oh I know that for the sake of his future in politics and liberal activism the story is ‘John is forgiven’, but I think this will, well should be if the media would let the American public make up their own minds, a major example of why John Edwards is a hypocrite and phony.

He runs around the country playing the whole ‘Two Americas’ game. Well, it turns out there are two Americas. One where men are fully committed and devoted to their wives, especially when they are suffering from terminal cancer. And then their is the one that Edwards lives in where he just needed a little loving.

A man that would cheat on his wife is a low life scumwad. I don’t care the circumstances. Real men don’t cheat. It is a sign of character flaw and weakness that men or women cannot remain loyal to those they love. People who cannot say “no” have no business running this country. The moral decay in this country can be pointed back to the intentional destruction on the family.

If the Democrats continue to allow Edwards to remain a party leader, and don’t shun him into the shadows, it speaks volumes for how little family values means to that party.

I am just waiting for Edwards to take the stand in his own defense and say that he was channeling Bill Clinton the entire time he was having sex with a woman that wasn’t his wife.
