Left Wing Reactions to Edwards Story About What You'd Expect

"I think this President has shown a remarkable disrespect for his office, for the moral dimensions of leadership, for his friends, for his wife, for his precious daughter. It is breathtaking to me the level to which that disrespect has risen."--John Edwards during the Clinton Lewinsky scandal as dug up by Matt Welch.

Read the quote above and then wallow in this as written by some scrub named Joe Sudbay from Americablog:

Okay. For the record, I really don't care who sleeps with whom -- as long as the person isn't a hypocrite. But, this long-rumored story is now sweeping through the traditional and online media. I debated whether even to post this revelation, but we're adults and it's news. It's out there. I'm not condemning Edwards. I don't care. But, if the GOPers or the traditional media decide to make a big issue out of this one, I have one question: Where's Vicki Iseman?

Well Joe, regardless if you care who sleeps with whom or if you don't, that quote above makes Edwards a 100%, low-down, scumbag hypocrite now doesn't it?

As for Vicki Iseman, she was purported to be McCain's lover in a NY Times piece that has been discredited for quite some time. The piece was unsourced and both parties have said it was untrue.

Now let's think about this Joe old buddy, if it were true, don't you think the intrepid media--the media who did not even so much as make a phone call in the Edwards issue--would have had at least an iota of evidence? The media who support your causes was beaten to the biggest story of the summer by the National Enquirer (and Micky Kaus) for crying out loud and your only response is Vicki Iseman?

Pretty pathetic, dude. But then, I've grown accustomed to lame spin emanating from the liberal blogs of late for the pathetic campaign Obama has has run so it's not too surprising in this case.

Update: Gotta love those "nuanced" libs reading and commenting to lil' Joe. This psycho is my personal favorite:

Where's Vicki Iseman?

Uh, it's a fairly safe bet she is dead, and the body destroyed.

That's how The REAL GOP operates.

We are seeing the REAL GOP in action at this time,on behalf of McCain.

Slam-dunk.

Yo Nikto, dude, you still haven't figured out our M.O. have you. We don't kill, we just buy them off to go away. But when we have to resort to actually offing them, well, let's just say the people who whacked Hoffa were amateurs. There will be no bodies found in DC parks in a McCain administration I can tell you that! (sarcasm off).
