John Edwards Admits Affair and Love Child
Posted on August 8, 2008 at 2:53 pm (PST)
John Edwards just admitted he did in fact have a sexual affair with Rielle Hunter … a sexual affair, but says, despite having had sex with that woman, that he is not the father of the love child Frances Quinn Hunter. Edwards claims Andrew Young (41), a married man with children, like Edwards, is the father of the child. Young is a political operative that has been working with Edwards for years, and was a key official in Edwards presidential campaign.
Edwards say he was 99% honest, so we’re thinking the 1% of dishonesty has to do with the love child. We will only believe Edwards is not the father of the child when we see a DNA test confirming he is not since we have so much evidence pointing to Edwards being the father.
First Edwards was caught meeting up with the woman who he had the affair with, Rielle Hunter, but ran and hit from reporters to avoid getting caught. Fox News then interviewed a security guard and confirmed the reporters’ story. Information was then reported that Edwards payed support money to Hunter. Finally, and most incriminating of all, a picture was taken with a hidden camera of Edwards in a hotel room in Beverly Hills holding the love child Frances Quinn Hunter, whom he denies as his biological child. Why keep visiting the baby, and holding the baby if it’s not yours?
We think Edwards has been 100% dishonest, and as a result his politcal career is over.
Edwards issued the following statement about his admitted sexual affair:
"In 2006, I made a serious error in judgment and conducted myself in a way that was disloyal to my family and to my core beliefs. I recognized my mistake and I told my wife that I had a liaison with another woman, and I asked for her forgiveness. Although I was honest in every painful detail with my family, I did not tell the public. When a supermarket tabloid told a version of the story, I used the fact that the story contained many falsities to deny it. But being 99% honest is no longer enough."
"I was and am ashamed of my conduct and choices, and I had hoped that it would never become public. With my family, I took responsibility for my actions in 2006 and today I take full responsibility publicly. But that misconduct took place for a short period in 2006. It ended then. I am and have been willing to take any test necessary to establish the fact that I am not the father of any baby, and I am truly hopeful that a test will be done so this fact can be definitively established. I only know that the apparent father has said publicly that he is the father of the baby. I also have not been engaged in any activity of any description that requested, agreed to or supported payments of any kind to the woman or to the apparent father of the baby."
"It is inadequate to say to the people who believed in me that I am sorry, as it is inadequate to say to the people who love me that I am sorry. In the course of several campaigns, I started to believe that I was special and became increasingly egocentric and narcissistic. If you want to beat me up - feel free. You cannot beat me up more than I have already beaten up myself. I have been stripped bare and will now work with everything I have to help my family and others who need my help."
"I have given a complete interview on this matter and having done so, will have nothing more to say."
Edwards has not taken a paternity test to confirm that he is not the father of the baby, and Young has not taken a paternity test to confirm he is the father of the baby. Young has not been caught visiting the baby, but Edwards has.
Edwards wife, who is dying from cancer, must be really proud of her husband.
There’s also a rumor that Barack Obama has a love child. Why isn’t the media investigating that story?

…because we have muckrakers like you to dig up the dirt on politicians. Like most of the stuff you throw at the wall, some sticks, but most just oozes onto the floor!
