I have a pic of EWE and Muhammad Ali. In my living room. The guy was a IRL Baller. Too bad he had to push it to a conviction.

I remember people saying it was a tough decision between the to and thinking to myself "how is it even a choice between someone in the kkk and this guy. No brainer Edwards".

I was so naive.


Edwards was the biggest piece of shite to ever inhabit the governor's office and I hope he rots for what he did to this state.

That being said, sadly, there is still to this day NOTHING AT ALL naive about your sentiment there. Duke would have made Edwards look like Thomas Jefferrson by comparison.

Reminds me of a Nick Saban but with even lower morals, ethics, and honesty.

One of the coolest people I have ever met. Politics and corruption aside, spend 5 minutes with this dude and you will understand how he made it where he did. He has a commanding presence when he speaks and tells stories and completely owns the room. He's one charming and engaging mofo (no homo )

Surprised he doesn't have a beer in his hand. Habitual drunkard. Great mayor for Baton Rouge, but a horrible husband to his wife and a even worse family man.

From Wikipedia.

quote:

Edwards was found guilty on seventeen of twenty-six counts, including racketeering, extortion, money laundering, mail fraud and wire fraud


Keep in mind Louisiana's citizens voted this criminal into the highest office in the land numerous times. And he's running for and might win the election he's in right now. How does that make louisiana's citizens look? Smart?

Thanks for pulling that up but I guess I was looking for what things he did to rip us off? What did it cost us?

Not concerned about him screwing a high roller or business partner. Those are all big boys who knew the risks of high stakes dealing.

At this point, I'm not aware of him costing me or harming any general citizens. I feel ignorant on this and was looking for specifics to think about.
