I never cheated on my wife and had a child out of wedlock, then lied to the entire nation about it and tried to offer an employee $$$ to claim the child as his…
Somehow, you think a man who can do these things while the eyes of the public are upon him is somehow above being privately thrilled that his soon-to-be ex wife died (as he obviously knew she was about to) BEFORE he had to shell out many, many millions of dollars to her in a bitter divorce?
Sorry, but in my opinion you are giving him much too much credit as a person, when his actions over the years suggest to me that he deserves no benefit of the doubt when it comes to his lack of character and obvious narcissism and selfishness.
My comments have NOTHING to do with Elizabeth Edwards and EVERYTHING to do with John Edwards and I guess that some of you can’t understand this.
I am not going to respond to silly, off-topic personal attacks—After all, the poster who calls my “class” into question recently started a thread for the sole purpose of boasting of her families’ vast Midas-like wealth, and the fabuolus mansion (worth almost $500,000!!!) that she was raised in, and the sheer opulance and luxury of a Volkswagen (those are made in Germany, for any peasants who are not aware) that she drives…
I just realised that I did exactly what I said that I wasn’t going to do and reponded to a silly, off-topic post from a poster who I should know enough to simply ignore.
As I think that John Edwards is not worth my time as a person, I will have no more to say on the matter, and hope that any admirers of Elizabeth Edwards will take my previous comments about her husband in the context that they were meant.
Aww, you’re so cute when you make shit up! Snuggle snuggles,** MPB**. Why don’t you go down to your local watering hole, sign a piece of paper getting ya into a club and have a drinky drink? Huh? Literally every piece of your last post is completely and totally inaccurate. Every single piece! You didn’t get a thing right, you fuzzy little guy!
To piece out what’s going on, you 1) came in to threadshit 2) did so rather successfully, on a rare, classy woman who just died 3) pissed off some of the most gentle, decent posters around 4) Lied about the cost of his haircuts and covered it up by calling it a joke 5) were called out on being mean spirited, and above all, tasteless and classless.
I hope your so-called wife bites down hard tonight.
lindsaybluth, this kind of personal attack is entirely out of line for GQ. This is an official warning. Do not do this again.
[Moderator Note]
Most of the other posts in this thread were also inappropriate for GQ, especially those by MPB in Salt Lake City. While I am not issuing a warning here, let’s refrain from this kind of opinionating in the future.
Since most of the factual aspects of the OP have been answered, and this thread is a mess, I am closing it. Those who want to express their personal opinions on either of the Edwards are invited to start a thread in IMHO or the Pit.
