Elizabeth Edwards Left Husband John Out Of Her Will

Just desserts:

A week before her death, Elizabeth Edwards filed a will.


She lists her worldly possessions – "furniture, furnishings, household goods, jewelry, china, silverware and personal effects and any automobiles" – and says it'll all be divided among her three children.


Absent in the document dated Dec. 1 was any mention of her estranged husband John Edwards, 57, although he is still living in their home.


John admitted he had an affair in 2006 while Elizabeth's breast cancer was in remission and that he had fathered a child.


Elizabeth, who lost her cancer battle at age 61 on Dec. 7, posted a Facebook note to her followers the day before she died.


"I have been sustained throughout my life by three saving graces – my family, my friends, and a faith in the power of resilience and hope," she wrote. "These graces have carried me through difficult times and they have brought more joy to the good times than I ever could have imagined. The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered. We know that."

Elizabeth Edwards Passes Away

Seemingly a good woman. but she crossed the line when she followed her scumbag of a husband in screwing over the American people:

Today CBS News learned new details about the last days of Elizabeth Edwards' life. In her final hours, she was surrounded by the people she loved most: her son, Jack, just 10-years-old, daughters Emma Claire, 12, and Cate, 28. Also there, her estranged husband, John, and a handful of close friends, including Jennifer Palmieri, who spoke about Edwards' children, reports CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano.


"To say that she prepared them for her death, I don't think that is correct," said friend Jennifer Palmieri. "What she wanted to do was prepare them to live a good life."


Edwards was determined that her last days with her children be joyful.


"She was able to have you know, normal, good night mom, give them a kiss and go to school, and so it was a very nurturing and warm environment," said Palmieri. "It was not a sad place if you can imagine that. It was a very warm and nurturing home."


Elizabeth Edwards knew she would only have a few years with her young children, as she told Katie Couric in 2007, right after Edwards learned her cancer had returned.


"I've often said that the most important thing you can give your children are wings - cause you're not always going to be able to bring food to the nest," Edwards told Couric. "Sometimes they're going to have to be able to fly by themselves."

Elizabeth Edwards Blasts John Edwards, Doesn't Admit To Her Own Deception To Voters

People.com:

For all that's been said about Elizabeth Edwards, she's now taking her turn.

In a frank and far-reaching interview with PEOPLE in this week's issue, Edwards, 60, opens up about husband John's infidelity scandal and details what her and her children’s relationships with him are like now, the summer vacation they'll take together (including the sleeping arrangements), and her thoughts on him dating again.

"John's conduct through this whole thing was terrible and it makes people want him to pay for it," Elizabeth says. "On a personal level, he's paid a lot."

She also shares how her cancer has gotten worse, with tumors in her legs, spine and skull: "It's less frightening than you think; it can't migrate to your brain," she says.

I'm sorry but until Elizabeth admits to how she played a part in deceiving voters and enabling this whole scandal, she's still lost my respect.

Did John Edwards Beat Up His Wife Elizabeth?

Huliq.com:

The National Enquirer is reporting that John Edwards beat wife Elizabeth, 60, in a fight that ended their marriage. The revelation, according to the paper, came from a close friend of Elizabeth.

It was revealed last week that the couple had split. The close friend, who assed a lie detector test, the Enquirer noted, said:

"John lost his temper big-time. She has the divorce papers drawn up, but she can amend them to charge John with domestic violence. She's holding that over his head right now - and he's scared. Elizabeth is in control."

While John Edwards pooh-poohed the initial reports coming from the tabloid about his affair and his "love child," it was later revealed that the Enquirer was correct. The Enquirer crowed over the issue, and must be taken more seriously in these sorts of allegations, now.

The couple has been married for 32 years, and the attack was apparently the "final straw." Edwards also only recently admitted paternity of 2-year-old daughter Frances by mistress Rielle Hunter.

Despite the allegations and accusations over cheating and paternity, Elizabeth Edwards stood by John during his presidential runs. This even included a recurrence of her cancer, for which she is still undergoing treatment.

The full details of the beating are in the print edition of the Enquirer.

Wonder if Elizabeth leaked this story herself after she separated from John-Boy? Considering how conniving these two were, wouldn't surprise me.

John And Elizabeth Edwards Announce Separation

YahooNews.com:

Elizabeth Edwards stood faithfully by her husband even after she learned he had an affair on the campaign trail while she battled cancer. She recently described the "slow process" of trying to rebuild her trust in him.

Her struggle to reconcile the marriage appeared near its end with word Wednesday that she and her husband of more than 30 years have separated.

The news came a week after John Edwards admitted fathering a child with his mistress, Rielle Hunter, and as details emerged from a book by a former aide describing the lengths the former presidential candidate took to try hiding his misdeeds from his wife, family and the American public.

Elizabeth Edwards, 60, declined to comment through a friend, Andrea Purse, who confirmed the separation. But Elizabeth's sister told The Associated Press that she remains strong.

"She's doing as well as you could expect," Nancy Anania said. "I'm really proud of her that, somehow, she's got strength that you rarely see in a person."

Elizabeth Edwards should've left her bastard of a husband the minute she found he was cheating on her. But she didn't and instead chose to participate in a bold-face lie, scamming voters on the campaign trail to the tune of millions while pretending that her lying, cheat of a husband was a stand-up guy. Some idiots may still want to feel sorry for Elizabeth, but my guess is that the millions that John Edwards raked in from his trial lawyer days (as well as other assorted scams) will keep Elizabeth comfortable.

Elizabeth Edwards To Wait And Exploit Affair In New Book

Newsmax.com:

Elizabeth Edwards plans a new book about facing adversity, recapping an often-tumultuous life that most recently included her husband's public disclosure of an affair, her publisher said Tuesday.

The book entitled "Resilience" is to be published on May 12. It comes less than a year after Edwards' husband John publicly acknowledged having an affair with a video producer in the months before he began his second campaign for president.

David Drake, the publicity director at Broadway Books, declined to discuss in detail the contents of the book but said it would serve as a sort of sequel to her previous memoir, "Saving Graces," that was first published in 2006 and updated in 2007.

Drake would not say whether Edwards discusses the affair in her new book.

"We're aware of some of the events that have taken place in her life since then," he said. "She has always been a kind of candid and honest writer, and people can expect that of her in her new book."

Edwards' initial memoir mostly focused on how she coped with the 1996 death of the couple's son Wade and her ongoing battle with breast cancer.

Since the affair announcement in August, Edwards has continued to advocate for health care reform by visiting Congress and making policy speeches. She has yet to discuss the affair in detail and has asked for privacy on the subject.

Surely, Elizabeth's saving "her feelings" on the affair for the book, you can be sure of it because this woman shouldn't be trusted. I mean, Elizabeth Edwards is the same woman who smiled, stood by and said nothing while her husband (who just happened to be running for Democrat primary winner) played "Family Guy," knowing full well that he was having an affair and lying to the American people about it, that is until the National Enquirer caught him out there. John Edwards misled voters as well as financial supporters and Elizabeth Edwards is just as culpable--another stand-by-your-man opportunist in the same vein as Hillary Clinton.

John Edwards Admits To Having Affair On Cancer Stricken Wife

His political career is done as well it should be:

Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards on Friday admitted to an extramarital affair while his wife was battling cancer. He denied fathering the woman's daughter. Edwards told ABC News that he lied repeatedly about the affair with 42-year-old Rielle Hunter but said that he didn't love her.

He said he has not taken a paternity test but knows he isn't the father because of the timing of the affair and the birth.

ABC said a former Edwards campaign staffer claims he is the father, not Edwards.

Hunter's daughter, Frances Quinn Hunter, was born on Feb. 27, 2008, and no father's name is given on the birth certificate filed in California.

Three weeks ago, the National Enquirer said its reporters caught Edwards visiting Hunter at a California hotel. In the interview, scheduled to air on ABC News' "Nightline," Edwards said the tabloid was correct when it reported on his meeting with Hunter at the Beverly Hills Hotel last month.

What a lying prick. Over and over this former candidate for President of the United States lied the American public about cheating on his dying wife and it took a rag like the National Enquirer to nail him dead to rights. Why? Because half of the liberal press didn't want to have anything to do with the story of a prominent Democrat (and potential Vice-President) carrying on in such a despicable manner, despite all the rumors to the contrary. Now Edwards admits to having an affair, but not fathering his mistresses' baby. Well you'd have to be idiot to believe anything he say to say now. Then too, if the affair was over why did the Enquirer bust him visiting his allegedly former paramour in the middle of the night at her hotel a few weeks ago? Now the question is will the NYTimes, which had no problem putting John McCain on Page 1 for an alleged affair with a former lobbyist, cover Edwards admitted affair with the same vigor and diligence? I highly doubt it, after all, when it comes to fair and balanced reporting on the issues, the Times lost sight of that a long time ago.

Is John Edwards Cheating On His Beloved Wife Elizabeth?

We all know that something little like adultery is traditional for Democrat politicians, but when you happen to have a wife at home that's stricken with cancer (and has been nothing but an advocate for you every step of your political career), you'd think one would be a little more discreet when going out for secret rendezvous to hook up with their mistress:

A Beverly Hills hotel security guard told FOXNews.com he intervened this week between a man he identified as former Sen. John Edwards and tabloid reporters who chased down the former presidential hopeful after what they're calling a rendezvous with his mistress and love child.

The Beverly Hilton Hotel guard said he encountered a shaken and ashen-faced Edwards — whom he did not immediately recognize — in a hotel men's room early Tuesday morning in a literal tug-of-war with reporters on the other side of the door.

"What are they saying about me?" the guard said Edwards asked.

"His face just went totally white," the guard said, when Edwards was told the reporters were shouting out questions about Edwards and Rielle Hunter, a woman the National Enquirer says is the mother of his child.

The guard said he escorted Edwards, who was not a registered guest at the hotel, out of the building after 2 a.m. Edwards did not say anything while he was escorted out, said the guard, adding that at times the reporters on the scene were "rough on him," sticking a camera in his face and shouting questions.

Edwards shouldn't feel bad, unlike those staunch conservatives who keep their marriage vows, liberal Democrats like him just love sex, especially with women who aren't their wives!

Elizabeth Edwards: Insane Liberal of the Week

Age: 58

Birthplace: Jacksonville, Florida

Claim To Fame: attorney and wife of former U.S. senator John Edwards

Why She’s The Most Insane Liberal of the Week: for continuing to allow her husband to use her as a pawn in his Presidential aspirations.

A week after working hand-in-hand with Chris Matthews to backstab conservative pundit Ann Coulter on Matthews’ low-rated “Hardball” show, Mrs. Edwards continued her verbal attacks on Coulter this past week. Interviewed Thursday on the CBS’ “Early Show,” Mrs. Edwards said that it didn’t used to be all right for people to “call names, to say these hateful kind of things.” Edwards said as a parent, she doesn’t think it should be allowed to happen now.

Yet, Mrs. Edwards seems to conveniently forget that it was she who played a key role in hiring two anti-Catholic bigots to help run her husband’s campaign not too long ago. Granted, the bigots would later resign, but that was only after conservative groups expressed outrage at the hirings in the press. Then too, just as her husband tried to garner sympathy votes by using her announcement that her cancer had returned recently for campaign funds, Mrs. Edwards made it clear that she has no problem with her husband using Coulter’s comments as a fund-raising tool, saying that “it’s showing what they’re asking voters to reject.” Either this woman is completely incompetent or just as shady as her husband. Or maybe she’s just a Stepford wife quietly begging to be rescued from her Svengali. Who knows. But one thing’s for sure: the two losers certainly deserve each other.
