Guess good fences don’t always make good neighbors.
And about that brand spanking new Edwards’ manor, MKH has a few things to say:
Listen, I got no problem with the guy being rich and spending his money how he wishes, but it is supremely obnoxious that just about every liberal politican lives like the top 1 percent they’ve been denigrating for the past six years. That 1 percent is full of George Bush’s buddies, but Democrats know none of them, right? The rich are not evil. For the most part, they are people who have worked hard at something they’re good at, and the market has deemed them worthy of healthy payment.
Sadly, John Edwards spent his working career building this luxurious life for himself from fairly humble beginnings, and he will spend the rest of his political career trying to convince the rest of America that his story is an impossibility in “George Bush’s America.”
“Hey, thanks capitalism! Now that I’ve made it, the rest of y’all enjoy socialism. Love, John Edwards.”
I smell a campaign slogan.
