New Revelations About John Edwards and..Plastic Surgery?

New details are emerging about former politician John Edwards. In addition to cheating on his cancer-stricken wife, a new book alleges that he used donor money to fund hiding his lies about the child he spawned with former mistress Rielle Hunter. Of note, I was actually asked by the National Enquirer to look at photos of her baby right after the story broke, whom they suspected could be Edwards'. I declined the invitation at the time. Looks like they were right on target with that one!


An insider recently remarked to Gawker:

In his book, Young writes that Edwards switched from Diet Coke to "caseloads" of Sprite and Sunkist after shelling out for plastic surgery and "new teeth" that were susceptible to stains.
Edwards' other drink of choice was cheap white wine -- over ice -- which his minions would keep at the ready in a cooler in Edwards' car.
"He's so nouveau riche," the snitch said. "He's totally a guy with no taste who suddenly came into a lot of money."



I never liked John Edwards. He always reeked of opportunist to me. I wonder what plastic surgery he had?

Open mouth insert foot (AGAIN)

This isn't a political blog, but I just have to get this off my chest.

As if a series of $400 haircuts and other campaign gaffes haven't cut Democrat John Edwards off at the knees...... Did he learn nothing from schleping qround with John Kerry?

Edwards the ernstwile poverty crusader and slick-talking shill for the American trial lawyers association has once again stepped in a knee deep pile of political pandering. Catering to the far left-wing of the Democratic party, Edwards recently decried candidates taking any money from Rupert Murdoch's FOX Corp. as it is too partisan for his tastes.

Lo and behold that Edwards had received over $800,000 from one of Murdoch's publishing companies for a self-serving puff piece book he wrote. When his campaign was informed of this hypocrisy, we got the ubiquitous "no comment" and furious spin control.

We do not need people like this in politics!

BTW "nice hair", John.

Back to medcine next week (I promise).
