Political Morsels and Other Droppings

Okay, now President Clinton had his little tryst with Monica and we all know how that turned out.  Most of us didn’t really care about his personal life. As with John Edwards, his affair was not that much of a surprise. In fact, it was shameful to hear that he went behind the back of his wife, who is in stage four cancer. That’s seriously fucked up and that’s when I was happy he didn’t last long on his quest for the presidency. When his mistress ended up preggers, I will admit, I didn’t pay too much attention, as I have a life to live. However, when pictures of the daughter were made public, I will say that I took notice of her resemblance to John Edwards.  It grew even sicker when the reports came out that he had tried to get his aides to conduct a paternity test by stealing one of the baby’s diapers, while trying to fake the official paternity test results. I have come to believe, especially with the book outlining how the coverup of his affair took place, that John Edwards is a thing of the political past.  Let’s face it, politicians are compared with used car salesmen on a regular basis. However, cheating on your dying wife, knocking up your mistress, and trying to pin it on your happily married aide… seriously not a good recipe for a moral man.  So, I hope the Edwards children will not require to much therapy for their father’s transgressions, and I hope Elizabeth is able to take him to the cleaners!
