John Edwards Blames the (Volunteer) Help
John Edwards is blaming an overzealous volunteer for trying to avoid waiting in line for a Playstation 3 like those in “Wal-Mart’s America” have to do:
“My wife, Elizabeth, wanted to get a Playstation3 for my young children. She mentioned it in front of one of my staff people,” Edwards said. “That staff person mentioned it in front of a volunteer who said he would make an effort to get one. He was making an effort to go get one for himself.
“Elizabeth and I knew nothing about this. He feels terrible about this. He made a mistake, and he knows he should not have used my name,” Edwards said.
Edwards said the volunteer was “a young kid” unaware of what he called flawed Wal-Mart policies. He called the Wal-Mart statement an effort to divert attention from its own problems.
It’s obvious the “young kid” hasn’t been fully indoctrinated in anti-Wal-Mart rhetoric like Edwards’ 6-year-old son Jack.
Come on John, just admit you like Wal-Mart’s low prices like any other American. I know it’d hurt your standing with the Wal-Mart-is-evil crowd you’ve been placating in preparation for a 2008 Presidential run. But think about the intellectual honesty you’d be demonstrating. I know it’s hard for some to admit, but Wal-Mart does plenty of good.

Let me get this straight as it was a little tough to read.
John Edward’s wife asked a young kid volunteer indirectly through a staffer to purchase a Playstation 3 for himself, under his name, and then that Playstation 3 would be given to John Edwards?
So in other words he feels the political need to purchase things at Wal Mart under strict “Secrecy” for fear of what the KOS KIDS would think about it?
Wow!
That’s why I love being a conservative. I do not have to bend myself in a tremendous contortions just to live my life.
I prefer to place NO limitations on what I do. I do what I want because if the prices are cheap, then that’s money in my wallet.
I don’t understand how liberals could ever be “happy” with themselves when they seem to have so much “anger” and “hate” for Capitalism which has been part of America since the beginning of its time.
