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]

We’re having trouble getting into this latest iteration of the John Edwards/Rielle Hunter/Love Child story, probably because, um, who gives a shit about this loser or his bastard? For what it’s worth, however, he offered a curt denial today in Houston, where he was talking to a low-income housing aid organization: “That’s tabloid trash… They’re full of lies. I’m here to talk about helping people.” Oh ho ho, so now Mr. Altruism over here thinks that helping poor people is more important than his ubiquitous boner, hmm? [Houston Press]
