John Edwards is the quintessential limousine liberal. The type that sends his kids to private schools and owns a private jet. He exudes everything that is wrong with the liberal democratic party as it exists today. The democratic party used to be the party of the people, the party that my father used to vote for, the party that my father was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for during WWII. Unfortunately, there are no more FDR's in the democratic party, and no longer are there any JFK's in the democratic party. Today, there is Barack Obama and the Clinton's. A far cry from what the Democratic party used to represent. Now, the democratic party has become the party which wants to represent the poor and disenfranchised, but is totally run by rich, phony, "Do as I say, not as I do", liberal socialists.
John Edwards pays $400.00 for a haircut. Can you imagine how many meals could be bought for needy family's in trouble with the money that John Edwards spends on haircuts over the course of a year? It is unimaginable that he would even attempt to try to enter the arena of attacking poverty in this country when he is leading such an excessive and lavish life style. That's how vain a hypocrite that he is. How many hair cuts do most men get for $400.00? Probably about 300. He is so out of touch with reality that it's pathetic.
John Edwards fighting to end poverty is like Adolph Hitler fighting for anti-Semitism. If he was so concerned about helping the impoverished, he would be donating most of his fortune to the support of needy families. Instead, he's too busy looking in the mirror, worrying about his hair. What a phony wimp. John Edwards made his fortune suing doctors and organizations with malpractice suits. He sued the Red Cross three times!
Not only should John Edwards be ashamed to run for any public office, he should simply do what he does best. He should concentrate on looking good and suing innocent people and organizations. He reminds me of Al Gore, another supposed do-gooder who is too busy enhancing his own personal wealth to really care about the issue which they claim to spearhead.
The way that John Edward's achieved his wealth proves that he is insincere in his commitment to end poverty, and it also makes his sincerity implausible and unbelievable. How many impoverished people has he actually helped in his pathetically vain life? My guess is zero
