Hear! Hear!

I don't think Susan Estrich could have said it better today about John Edwards. The woman who defended Clinton...who I am starting to like more and more I read her...well, all I can say is "Well said!" And I hope Edwards is listening. Killing himself really wouldn't be good enough.

"Killing himself really wouldn't be good enough."

Perhaps fate will see to it that Edwards meets the same end as Sen. Ted Kennedy. John's malignancy has been apparent to some for a long time, I dare say.

Would even his wife pity him?

I've always liked Susan Estrogen. She's wrongheaded, like all liberals, but at least she's honest.

Let's just ignore him.

She was spot on about Edwards. Spot off about Kennedy, but spot on about Edwards.

I rarely disagree with what I read here, but I don't think Susan Estrich is honest. I think I once linked here to a story of hers that - I am morally certain - was a huge and dispicable lie. Maybe when I get time, I'll look for it, link it again, and explain.

But even if I'nm wrong about that, this column leaves me shaking my head. I don't need her to tell me that Edwards is a creep. I saw that long before she did. So did you. She compliments Ted Kennedy for never trying to sypathetically "spin" his criminal homocide of a young woman? Well, bully for good old Ted! And do I need her to tell me again that adultery is not impeachable? Clinton was impeached for perjury, Susan.

If I never read another one of Estrich's opinion pieces, I will have missed nothing worth reading.

OK, I feel better now.

Jim O - you are right. I didn't really like her Kennedy or Clinton spin.

But it is so rare - for someone from her side to just ADMIT THE OBVIOUS about one of their own. I felt it was worth noting.

I'm sure you agree that even when the truth is obvious it is still hard for a Lib to admit it anyway.

Since she worked for Kennedy and friends with clinton she had to refrain from adding them in. But Acutally heard her interview on FOX during the Kennedy funeral - and she didn't defend him - she compartmentalized that she worked for his AGENDA not the MAN.

I guess that is like being for GERMANY not HITLER.
