getting ready to meet with john edwards

I found myself sitting here tonight, alternating between video clips of Nicky Hilton sitting in a parked car and Katie Holmes buying what might be a sweater, and it occurred to me that maybe I owed it to my daughter to do a little more with my life… So, I arranged to take the morning off from work tomorrow, I accepted the invitation to meet with former Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards, and I began working on my list of questions… Right now, thanks to links provided by Jim, I’m watching Edwards on The Daily Show and reading a transcript of an interview he did with another blogger a few days ago… If you have any questions that you would like answered, just let me know and I’ll see what I can do.

    Hey Mark! I hope to see you there!

    I really enjoyed Sen.Edward’s brief appearance on the Daily Show.

    One statement he made really stood out in my mind…We have a tax system that does not benefit work. Our tax system benefits capital.

    Did you know John Edwards has a podcast?

    Very cool, Brian. If there’s time, I’ll check it out.

    Tell him thanks for helping to run such a shoddy campaign. I blame Kerry and Edwards’ bland, wimpy effort on four more years of Bush/Cheney. It never should have been close enough for the Republicans to steal it again.

    Bob-Dead Zone!!!! I’ll bet it was neverr close at all. When you steal those votes it doesn’t matter what the number is as long as you win.

    Wish his wife well from another mother and wife for me please.

    I actually have thought more about her than him since November ’04.

    Hey Hey Hey! Libby, woo-hoo, in lower case letters. Unless this is just a stocking stuffer, and I am going to get a big fat package w/ congenital heart failure for Christmas.

    Although, I still contend that indicting Libby is tantamount to indicting Monica Lewinsky during sodomygate, blowjobgate, spooggate…someone help me out here.

    Monica put the penis of a married man in her mouth. Libby outed an undercover operative, ending a legitimate investigation into weapons of mass destruction and putting several lives at risk. It’s a bit different, Chris, but I understand where you’re coming from – there are others more to blame, like whoever it was that sent Libby out with the information and told him to spread the word (Cheney).

    The interview with Edwards, by the way, went OK… not great, but OK… I’ll try to post something tonight.

    Mark, that is exactly what I meant. That being, Libby is just the sacrificial goat. When everyone knows it was Cheney.

    BTW, I am sure the Edwards interview went fantastic but he is by no means is a Peter Falk. AND, how did you get this interview and what was it for?

    An invite was sent out to three Michigan bloggers. I guess someone reads my site… It really wasn’t fantastic though. Edwards was tired and we were only given a few minutes. There wasn’t really a connection of any kind made. It wasn’t really anyone’s fault though…. It’s too bad too. I think me and the other bloggers who came could have gotten at some interesting things if given the chance.

    Did you feel any impulses to ask him about ball shaving or monkey taint?

    Actually, I introduced myself as DJ Smooth Monkey Taint when I shook his hand.
