john edwards a dickwad, after all

don't you find it epically satisfying when a holier-than-thou political whore reveals themselves as the total shit that you always knew they were? like when sen. john edwards said that - not only did he cheat on his cancer-stricken wife - but the affair began when she was in remission.

listen: washington typically resembles a key party hosted by pacs and 'consultants'. we don't understand it ourselves, but political power is a sexual draw for some people. if it weren't, karl rove would never have gotten laid, for any amount of money. so what? normally, we couldn't care less who is doing who.

unless, of course, they lie about it. that's like blood in the water to us. edwards took it a step further and actually offended us (which is surprisingly difficult to do) by lying about it, covering it up, and apparently paying his mistress off.

we wish the sharks bon appetit.
