Edwards' affair vs. 9 billion dollars MIA in Iraq.

Crooks and Liars questioned:

At the investigation of the money paid to Rielle Hunter by the Edwards campaign for videotaping as something critical to our democracy and yet we've known that the Bush administration lost NINE BILLION dollars in Iraq and there has been not one investigation?

George Stephanopoulos:

Up until December of 2007, most on Edwards' staff didn't believe rumors about the affair.
But by late December, early January of last year, several people in his inner circle began to think the rumors were true.
Several of them had gotten together and devised a "doomsday" strategy of sorts.
Basically, if it looked like Edwards was going to win the Democratic Party nomination, they were going to sabotage his campaign, several former Edwards' staffers have told me.
They said they were Democrats first, and if it looked like Edwards was going to become the nominee, they were going to bring down the campaign.



And I guess John Edwards's affair [let's not forget Spitzer] really is so detrimental to the financial troubles in this country as the media covers this story yet billions of dollars from two wars missing takes a back seat. But, of course people like McCain and Newtster are the boy scouts compare to Edwards to the gas bag media.

But all the affairs of the GOP are not spoken any more?

GOP diversionary tactics, accentuate the negative Democrats to divert from all the horrendous GOP activities that affect us all.

Hey Edwards is not in public office and neither is Spitzer.......soooo, and we are not paying the price for these guys mistakes, they are, and so is their families,...........but we are all affected by all the GOP activities that have caused the mess we are in.(too numerous to list, but wars and financial to start)

Sabotage? I guess there's no honor among thieves.
