Justice Department Green-Lights Prosecution of Dem John Edwards For Alleged Campaign Violations
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, May 25, 2011, 4:51 AM
For over a year and a half the media ignored the story first reported at the National Enquirer on the leading democratic presidential candidate. Then after the 2008 election they finally reported on John Edwards’ love child.
Not only did John Edwards father a love-child while his wife was going through chemo but he repeatedly denied it. And, he may have broken the law.
The state-run media ignored the story even after the National Enquirer released a picture of John Edwards and his love child in 2008.
Yesterday ABC reported that the United States Department of Justice green-lighted the prosecution of former democratic presidential candidate John Edwards for alleged violations of campaign laws while he tried to cover up an extra-marital affair.

Gee, you think this means the Justice Department will now examine where all of WTF leader’s campaign money came from for the 2008 election? Riiiight ;oP
Granny commented:
I am speechless. IWonWTF’s “justice” department is going to go after a DEMOCRAT?
Andreas K. commented:
If he broke the law, prosecute him. Case closed.
I don’t care about how many women he may or may not have knocked up, but that seems to be the most important issue. Kinda sad.
Hedgehog commented:
Just another distraction. They just decided that Edwards is expendable, and they know that the media will use this to distract attention from the real crimes being committed. They still refuse to secure the southwest border. They still refuse to prosecute the NBPP thugs. They still refuse to investigate the Pigford fraud. They have yet to answer for the gunrunning operation to Mexico. The list is endless.

#4: Right on the money. Pay little attention to this sleight-of-hand trickery. Watch what Holder’s other hand is doing.

I read somewhere that edwards said he will kill himself before going to prison…see ya
NeoKong commented:
Isn’t that funny. For a while he was the DNC’s golden boy. The state run media hacks all swooned in his presence and wanted him to be a president. He was going to “Keep hope alive” but in the end he was a lying, wife cheatin’ baby maker and eventually he was cornered hiding in a public toilet.
Democrats make me sick.
Janus Duel commented:
Edwards deserves what he gets. Hey, how’s that Kenneth Gladney story working for you these days?
Really? commented:
Can’t they just leave this poor guy alone? ? I mean, after all he’s been through…and now he needs to take the rest of his life to prepare for eternity in hell.
Johnny Rebel commented:
I love the sight of Obama prosecuting a political opponent (in the democrat primary Edwards ran against Obama and Hillary) for campaign violations.
And we all know that if Edwards was black Eric Holder would have given him a pass, but too bad, Edwards is white and he challenged Obama in a primary, jail is his next stop.

Edwards needs to man up. Go to trial, if convicted serve your time & repent. Sheeesh!
That junkbond king did it….served his time and made amends to society. When he died of Cancer he’d earned back the respect of his family and friends…died a free man.
Bitter Clinger commented:
If John Edwards was one of “Holder’s people” this would never happen.

See Cholly Rangle for back up evidence of my previous statement.

Van Halen commented:
Never forget that the same JournOList media who are throwing themselves under the bus to keep Obama afloat were the ones who knew full well what was going on with Edwards’ love child and kept things quiet. I don’t subscribe to their papers, buy their magazines, click on their websites, and I cancelled my cable. The will get no support voluntarily from me and very little otherwise.
Carbon Pootprint commented:
Well they need something to do and to keep the idiots on TV busy while they let the clock run out on prosecuting their banking buddies for securities fraud. After all how would the race baiting rich white people on TV be able to afford to do their jobs if the NY banks went down? It’s for the greater good of the new world order. Que spooky dude music bahahahahaa
jetstream commented:
The media need this as a distraction big enough to cover up the Blago trial which is being kept very very low key. Blago must be seriously dangerous to the Obama cabal. It’s a bonus for the WH that Edwards is with the Clinton crew.
