John Edwards Won Father Of The Year Award, Nine Months Before Becoming A Father Again

Here’s John Edwards on June 7, 2007, receiving a Father Of The Year award with his cancer wife Elizabeth in attendance. Rielle’s Hunter’s child was born on February 27, 2008, making the gap between these two events 8 months and 20 days. In other words, Rielle Hunter was hiding in this podium and John Edwards was literally impregnating her while talking about Fatherhood. Guys next to him are like, “Why’s John impregnating that gal in the podium?” [YouTube via JammieWearingFool]

    Yes, but he had procreative sex– with a woman! He didn’t even hit on that security guard while he was in the Beverly Hills bathroom. What, do his toes not tap? Is his stance not wide? What kind of politician is he? A Democrat, that’s what. Wake me up when he rapes something…

  2. He’s everybody’s daddy.

    I’m sorry, I know she has cancer and all, but Elizabeth Edwards is no Arianna Huffington.

    Kaff.

    Fathering a critter is a lot easier than fathering a winning presidential campaign, isn’t it John?

    Well? How would you celebrate becoming father of the year?

    Yeah, that’s what I thought you said.

    OMFG! Today the Enquirer broke the news. John & Rielle? IT WAS IN VITRO!!!

    There are two Americas: in my America, you knock up the bitch yo OWN damn self.

    “Why’s John impregnating that gal in the podium?”
    Because it’s a Black thing and John Edwards wants so badly to be America’s First Black Vice President that he’ll do anything to get there?

    Does that make Rielle the baby mama of John Edwards?

    This is why Republicans do it with MEN (and little boys)- no messy consequences!

    So is the baby named Fuck Hunter? Or Real Edwards? Or, are the naming rights being auctioned to benefit breast cancer research?
