National Enquirer Publishes Photo Of John Edwards With Alleged Love Child

National Enquirer:

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER is releasing the photograph that the world has been waiting for - the first-ever picture of John Edwards and his love child!

The stunning "spy photo" shows the former presidential contender holding his infant daughter Frances Quinn Hunter at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles - where the ENQUIRER caught him visiting the baby's mother, his mistress Rielle Hunter.

I still say it's not John Edwards. That guy that released that statement doesn't even look like him.

Oh good grief...like this is news in the political world. I'm sure John McCain and even Bill Clinton probably have love children out there somewhere (they've just been paid off). Leave John Edwards alone, it's between him and his family.

Hmmm... funny thing to hear a lib say... after the lambasting that HRC got in regards to Bill's affair...

Hypocrisy is a funny thing..

lol.. I'm loving this..

That assumes they're all stupid enough not to use birth control.

The ridiculous part of this entire story is that the Enquirer had been talking about it for months. The mainstream media now follows their lead. So if you see it in the Enquirer, it really COULD be true. Twenty years ago, you just assumed everything was made up in the tabloids. These days, that's where all the good investigative reporting takes place. http://mespace.wordpress.com

This is NOT JOHN EDWARDS! The hairline along the temple is different than his. The sleaze keeps on coming. In the meantime, let you who is without sin, be the first....you know the rest!

ABC News just reported that Edwards has admitted to having an affair, and say's his wife knew about it in 2006. Denies the baby is his (Baby wasn't that old), more news at 6:00 PM EST I guess.

Well, well, well.

Who would have thought?

[jwarrener]

I have been trying to compare the NE photos (blurry as they might be) with regular side shots of Edwards. I notice two big differences. First in the hairline coming down from the part---in the NE picture it goes out in a V to the eye leaving less space in between. In all of the non NE photos, John has a full head of hair but the side line down from the part is basically straight--going to the edge of the sideburn. He cuts his hair so that it covers a little of the straightness that occurs with natural aging in the male. Thus if the picture in the NE is indeed John Edwards then I would guess that it was 10 or more years earlier.

ALSO in the back of the head at the same angle--John has more skull and hair in the lower back of the head.

Can anyone confirm or refute what I am seeing???

If Bill O'Reilly does not now take the lead in reporting on the adulterous affairs and crimes of Pat and Gordon Robertson, he is the hypocrite. O'Reilly has knowledge of many of Pat Robertson's wrongdoings. Fox News has a friendly relationship with the 700 Club and many of their reporters and anchors are regulars on that pay-for-pray "all about pat" television show where faithfuls are daily exploited and bilked and taught prejudice and told how to vote - Republican. What Ann Coulter and Fox did to John and Elizabeth Edwards was irresponsible and so cruel and served no worthwhile purpose and did nothing to benefit the public. Miss Coulter's essay on Townhall was vile. She claims to know Christ, yet indulges in the most vicious scandalmongering and hatemongering I have ever seen. Mr. O'Reilly and Ann Coulter should disavow the Robertsons now, that father/son holyman outfit. Mr. O'Reilly should report what he knows about their relationship with Gigi Lacey and Russ Ritchel and how those famous millionaire holymen use The 700 Club and prayer and healing to manipulate and intimidate and threaten and insult and embarrass. Fox News should lift THEIR "media blackout." This is very unfair. Bill O'Reilly should apply the same standards to Republicans that he applies to Democrats. The Robertson's sins and crimes and hypocrisy are egregious and all those faithful evangelicals who faithfully watch The Factor deserve to know the truth about those frauds who claim to be "holy prophets of God."

Well said

If I want to read the National Enquirer (which I do not), I will. This is beneath you and your readers.

I know the DNC has asked Edwards to address this issue, and he has not , so far. If this is all innocent, then why not come forward "It's my sister's baby", or a friend's baby, but to let this drag on only adds to the suspicion. He needs to come out and clear this up, if it has been misconstrued. If it's correct, I feel sorry for Elizabeth Edwards. The stress of this can only make her more suseptible to further illness.

I'm praying, for Elizabeth's sake, this is all a big mistake.

[GoldCanyonGal]

I would hope, out of respect for Elizabeth Edwards, that this 'story' would end right here.

[Middleclassvotingbloc]

My heart goes out to Elizabeth, his wonderful wife. This could cause her health to deterorate. I just hope the media go easy on this one for her sake. Let them work it out in private. We all will continue to stand by Elizabeth.

Let's just leave them alone, and not descend on them like rabid audiences starved

[PAposter]

Unlike many, I don't think it's photo shopped. However, just because he's holding a baby, doesn't mean there's anything to hide. That baby could belong to a friend or relative, I just happen to believe the story about him having an affair.

It is, what it is.

[SpoxLogic]

Please take a look at the photo again.
1: Why is he wearing hospital attire?
2: Note the perpsective. Since the drapes are in the BACKGROUND, someone in the room took the picture. If the Enquirer photographer was outside the window - why are the curtains in the background and drwan?
3: If not #2, how did the Enquire get someone in the couple's room when it was supposed to be a secret meeting? Who is the spy then? The mistress and/or Edwards?

So my dear PAposter - it is NOT what it is.

[LeftLeftLeft]

This is not how a man would hold his love child, but instead appears to be a friend holding a baby that needs a diaper change.

Anyone ever think for a minute Edwards is trying to help a friend and his friend's unfortunate lover, during a difficult time? As a lawyer, he may be hanging around this Reille Hunter person because he is acting as her attorney.

Just a thought . . .

Sheesh. Nice photo shopping!
