Hu$h Little Mistre$$

Filed under: Politik > Love Line

johnedwards2.jpg

The National Enquirer has come out with another bombshell John Edwards allegation.

The reports that his mistress/babymomma, Rielle Hunter, won't say a word about their relationship and love child because she's been secretly receiving $15,000 a month from the former senator and presidential candidate.

The money is reportedly being funneled to Hunter by a wealthy colleague who was closely tied to the Edwards campaign.

This same man is also supposedly paying off Edwards’ pal and former aide Andrew Young – who tried to take the heat off the ex-Senator by claiming he is the father of Rielle’s baby.

An insider told the tabloid, “A super-rich pal – who was closely involved with the campaign finances – is helping John. It’s likely this man doesn’t know all the dirty details of John’s extramarital affair, but is acting out of loyalty and is not asking a lot of questions – only writing the checks,” revealed a source very close to the situation.

Johnny boy has yet to make a comment about the shenanigans asserted by the Enquirer.

Why not?

What do y'all think????

    men need sex and affection.
    his wife is very homely and old looking and maybe was not willing to give him what he needed.

    i feel sorry FOR ALL involved, including edwards who obviously was not getting the affection he needed at home!

    I don't understand why you keep "reporting" about this story Perez.
    It's the fucking National Enquirer.
    NOTHING IN THAT MAGAZINE IS TRUE!!
    Don't you realize that if there was any merit to this story it would be all over the legitimate news (i.e. Time magazine and other credible sources)
    He probably hasnt commented because he thinks that people will be smart enough to not believe the story.
    I am a fan of yours but apparently John Edwards was wrong and there are people dumb enough to believe the National Enquirer

    Whether the story is true or not, the guy is still a total douchebag.

    I think monogamy is an oldfashioned way or running relationships and it's too bad that Edwards had to go to such great lenghts to keep his life secret. I feel bad for him :(

    I thought democrats supported abortion. A republican would have at least used a condom. If you are going to cheat you need to use a little common sense and make sure you knock the whore up.

    #172 Loni says…” John Edwards is a very attractive man - he would never do something like this to his wife and children.”
    .
    WTF !! Just because you think a guy is handsome you think he has high morals? I just had to comment on such a ridicules statement !!! Loni, get real.

    The scary thing is that a lot of people believe that. To most people, Ted Bundy was considered an attractive guy.

    I think the time has come for us to make our own good & bad choices rather than let ellected officials, that throw us under the bus, make decissions for us. Do you really want anyone to make decissions for you? When we pass 12 inch thick budgets that were reviewed for 24 hours; red flag! Let's get those docs posted on the internet before approval so we can all comb over them together. Shouldn't we all be responsible for were our money goes? Why let a guy like this make decissions for us? I am the President of MY LIFE.

    WHY the fuck Is PereZ getting news from the Enquirer? This story is bullshit….cummon Perez, you're losing your edge.

    Hasn't he learned from the exposure of Bill Clinton & Monica? (no pun intended) His wife is very likable, but there marriage seemed more of an intellectual partnership than one of sexual passion. They lost a teenage child and their marriage probably never recovered. It's disgusting that his wife is dying and he's out screwing a bimbo who created flirty, non-professional webisodes of Edwards on the campaign trail. Keep following this story Perez!

    let's remember that this story has been reported by the national enquirer - not the best source for the truth.

    Perez, why are you reporting stuff from the national enquirer as if it were news? Isn't this the same publication that prints stories about aliens and such?

    His wife has been bravely fighting terminal cancer and he goes out and bangs some skank who has his bastard lovechild! And this man wanted to be president? Let's hope Obama keeps this power hungry hypocrite off his veep list!

    226

    What I don't understand is why the girlfriend Rielle Hunter gets $15000 per month , but the guy pretending to be daddy gets $18,500 per month? Isn't she doing all the hard work? Maybe he had a better lawyer than she did, hahaha!

    I realize a lot of you think The Enquirer is a BS rag, but look at the facts…a security guard @ the Beverly Hilton confirmed he was there on the night in question. That HAS been covered at least on the radio. If this story is purely made up, wouldn't you think Mr. Hot-Shot Lawyer Edwards would be bringing charges against The Enquirer by now? He's planning his strategy for damage control right now. The truth will be revealed any day now.

    Trust me, if it was a Republican - the mainstream media would be all over this!! Typical….

    230

    Yes, the Enquirer runs its share of fictitious stories, but they also have run true stories, too. I think the Edwards story is factual…..Why isn't he making a fuss about this? Why is he visiting this woman AND her baby at 2:00 in the morning? HMMM? NE has been following the story for about a year. And as far as the mainstream media not airing this? Well, hello, they are a mostly liberal machine….Now, you tell me this, if this were a former republican candidate, do you think the press would be sitting on it? Nope…..the liberal media is waiting until another organization breaks this story and then they will have no choice but to report on it.

    I know that probably no one will read this since its so far down, but the Enquirer is famous for breaking a lot of legit news stories! the Enquirer began breaking real news stories, rummaging through Secretary of State Henry Kissinger's trash to find classified documents in 1975, uncovering proof of Joan Kennedy's alcoholism during an election cycle, exposing governmental waste and, more recently, discovering crucial evidence in the O.J. Simpson trial. Elvis Presley died suddenly.Like striking oil, tabloid sales shot through the roof, when Elvis appeared on the cover of the National Enquirer lying embalmed in his coffin. (It may have been the National Enquirer's extraordinary efforts to acquire that 'photo' that led to our current paparazzi frenzyStriving for the kind of journalistic accuracy that repels libel suits, the tabloid scrupulously reported and fact-checked its pieces about Cher, Liz and Dick, , Henry Kissinger, Burt and Loni, and the original Charlie's Angels.By the time of Nicole Brown Simpson-Ron Goldman murders, the Enquirer had become so good that reporter David Margolick was toasting it in the New York Times for scooping the competition—and applauding it for spiking many of the false stories that appeared in mainstream media. And the modern National Enquirer,hasn't staged the filming of an exploding pickup truck like NBC News; it hasn't been taken by a serial liar, as was the New York Times;

    Can't a politician be faithfully married without having an extramarital affair? I feel sorry for his poor wife and children.

    The NE doesn't got jack on John (No pun intended). There are NO! pictures, NO! audios, NO! videos and NO! documents. This ain't 98' kids…THERE'S NO "BLUE DRESS"…and the Enquirer knows THIS..but they just won't admit it though and let this story die. So the only (real) way to nail Edwards is by audio (admission) or with a document (paternity results) It's NOT! gonna happen. PS. John, watch your back…the tabloids are gonna try to frame / set up you (i.e Frank Gifford) so try to cover all the bases (NO! hotel rooms unless you are with an entourage). That's a (D.C) unwritten rule….even more so in an election year. Hang in there, kiddo. Just hang in there.

    "I've been in love with the same woman for thirty years, but I'm hittin' the secretary".

    That is some low down duplicitous shit.

    I When did his wife die? If it was six months ago I care less than if it just happened.

    Haha, his chin looks like a vagina! Looks like that little slut left something for him!! I'm just surprised his chin doesn't have some kind of nasty looking warts on it or something!!
    Love you Perez!!
