I saw the interview Oprah had with Rielle Hunter and I agree with Elizabeth Edwards that this woman is truly pitiful and sad. First of all she hid out and hid her child's paternety and lied on national television all to protect "her" Johnny. She didn't even think enough of her child to not tell the truth about who her father was. When she told Oprah that John E. was "available" and that his M was over before she told a MM that he was hot she looked like a desperate fool. Not to mention that she said there was a magnetic force which caused her to sleep with a MM on the first night. They use to call that prostitution now it's a magnetic force which causes you to give a MM your body on the first meeting.

She couldn't even give Oprah a clear answer about whether her and "Johnny" are still seeing each other. So she is still hiding their "love". She made me sick in a way but I also felt sorry for her because she is pitiful. She also said that "Johnny" wanted to be with her because he wanted to live a life of truth!!!! Truth and hiding out in hotel rooms feeding off of each other for sex is not truth. Just like Elizabeth E, I got physically ill when I thought about the skankarella and my DH being intimate. Where do these women come from???

I saw parts of it and laughed. These OWs think they know so much about the M of their A partner. They only know the lies that the cheater told them. This OW is so arrogant that when it hits, it's going to hit hard.

And she has proven that it isn't about looks. I don't think she is attractive at all.

From the bowels of hell and hence that is where they will return.

And she only started crying when it was about her child...She should have thought about that before she slept with a MM...now another innocent human being brought into this mess..

She was soooo concerned about her child...what about the poor children who's family she helped rip apart? Did she cry for those children too?

Magnetic force:

"They used to call that prostitution":

I, too, could only stomache a protion of the broadcast.

Oprah asked if she was a "homewrecker." She said "no" -- that she was INVITED in.

GAG. Like Elizabeth opened the door and said "Sure, Sweetie -- come join us in a three-some."

If BOTH invited someone into their marriage -- fine. If only ONE invites someone in -- that's ADULTERY!!

Ok this is the first time I have used this.....

That statement of being invited in reminds me of Halloween. You show up disguised as someone else and say "trick or treat" and are invited in to get your treats. In her mind she was invited in and instead of the treats she pulled some tricks instead.

trashy, trashy, trashy......

One of them lives in my house and used to call herself my wife.

No she was "disquised" as your wife.

What no one seems to have mentioned yet is that Hunter seems oblivious to the fact that she submarined not only Edwards' marriage, but his political career and aspirations as well.

Good thing (for Edwards) that he has a lot of cash he can sit on. If he were one of us, he'd be spending his nights in a cardboard box right about now.

All for lurrrrrrrve.

Yep - John Edwards was at least "perceived" as a better man while he was with Elizabeth than once Reille got started with him.

But my guess is this wasn't John's first rodeo either.

In saner times I'd say Edwards' career as a public figure is toast.

But now I wonder. With the standards and morals of society falling all over themselves these days in an orgy of selfishness and satyriasis, I wouldn't be too surprised if he is publicly "rehabilitated" at some future date.

Disappointed, yes. Surprised? No.

I doubt it. He's too old to make that kind of recovery.

Remember Gary Hart?

Adultery sinks careers for politicians trying to rise onto the national scene. Clinton is the only one to get away with a modicum of "acceptability" after. David Letterman too.

But Sanford is toast. He will never be elected again.

The common denominator is the remorse or lack of it. Or at least the lack of believability to the act of remorse.

John Edwards isn't believable. too much nasty stuff about his uppity-ness, arrogance, etc. And Elizabeth is not rolling over on this and "playing nice" as she probably did in the past to conceal his utter selfish nature.

Do we remember Jessica Flowers? Wasn't that Clintons OW in Arkansas? Bret Starr? Yeah Fred maybe this will just be some outrageous publicty they can turn into a sympathy vote.
