I watched the clip of the Edwards’ press conference on the news and I then suffered through the gushing press coverage. I mean, I feel sorry for Elizabeth Edwards because she has terminal cancer and she has young kids who will be without a mother. That sucks and it’s difficult to make fun of her husband at a time like this. Difficult, but not impossible.
I couldn’t help but fall back on to a very cynical view of the whole thing. Mr. Ed himself is just so insincere that I couldn’t help but think that this whole cancer story is buying him a bunch of free press that includes a bunch of journalists talking about how strong and courageous he and his wife are and how strong their marriage is and blah, blah, blah. Unfortunately for Mr. Ed, the return of his wife’s cancer does not change the fact that he is a pompous, scum-sucking plaintiff’s lawyer selling a muppets version of the The Communist Manifesto with his stupid ”two Americas” class struggle garbage. I hope Mrs. Edwards’ doctors demanded a few extra liability waivers because their patient’s husband is to blame for a big chunk of their malpractice insurance costs and, if he becomes President, we’ll all be working on collective farms and gritting our teeth during State of the Union addresses that sound like NASCAR victory speeches.
We need to find a cure for cancer but we also need to find a cure for John Edwards.
