Is there a faithful husband out there? And are so many women just plain sleeping around with whoever comes along - married or not? I'm rapidly losing faith and confidence in people who are supposed to be held in higher regard than joe blow at the corner pub! And WHY do these people think they will ever get by with these actions?

Her cancer was in remission at the time of the affair - so does that mean he thought it was ok as the cancer wasn't active? - gimme a huge break here!

It is none of our business where a man sticks his wick.

So a guy has an affair... with a grown woman. That's boring. Makes him seem almost human. That's why republicans will always trump democrats for entertainment value. Republicans go for the adolescent boys working as congressional pages, or gay sex in airport men's rooms. Haha, now that's entertainment.

It IS the public's business when a public figure does some major cheating and lying, especially when it's someone who you are going to put your trust into to conduct an important job. The point isn't that he was cheating so much as all the sneaking around and constant lying. Looking at the tape of him answering questions about the infidelity a while back, it is so obvious he was lying when he answered that even a blind person could have seen it! I hope his wife kicks him where it would double him over, then keeps kicking 'till he's out of their home!

Sex and the Suffragettes

Do you know which president had a love child while campaigning for office - and how that helped women win the right to vote?

Most people are quite a bit in the dark about HOW women won the vote.

Now finding out the sexy, shocking truth is as easy as opening your e-mail.

'The Privilege of Voting' is a new historical e-mail series that goes behind the scenes in the lives of eight well-known women from 1912 to 1920 to reveal the exciting and surprising twists and turns that played into women finally winning the vote in England and America.

The women depicted include two of the most beautiful and outspoken suffragettes -- Alice Paul and Emmeline Pankhurst, along with Edith Wharton, Isadora Duncan, Alice Roosevelt, and two stunning presidential mistresses.

There are weddings and funerals, babies in peril, damsels in distress, war, peace, prohibition, broken hearts and lots of hot affairs on the rocky road to the ballot box.

The best part is it's ALL true!

Presented via e-mail in a unique, sequential, interwoven short-story format called Coffeebreak Readers - it makes discovering the delightful heroines of women's suffrage history fast and fun!

Each action-packed e-mail episode takes about 10 minutes to read, so they are perfect to enjoy on coffeebreaks, or anytime.

The point about this being nobody's business is backed up by the fact that his lies haven't hurt anyone. While the lies of our idiot predsident have cost tens of thousands of lives, but no one seems to care about that enough to impeach the retard.

nice guy, cheating on his wife with cancer.Aug 8th, 2008 - 21:30:04

Seeing as Edwards is the queen of meterosexuals I am surprised his affair was with a woman.

It will hurt him politically - his career is in the dumper.

unless he makes a stand on 'family values'. same goes for anti-gay people who turn out to be gay themselves also. it's between him and his wife. i would only hold it against him if he had continued to lie about it. this only proves that he shouldn't have gotten married, he obviously wasn't ready. nothing else.
