John Edwards Burned By His Own Words
(Fox News) - Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards has been a big critic of subprime lenders. But the Wall Street Journal has identified 34 New Orleans homes whose owners have faced foreclosure suits from companies affiliated with Fortress Investment Group, a company that Edwards once worked for and which still manages about $16 million of his money.
The paper reports Edwards now says he will personally provide financial assistance to the New Orleans residents affected and is also promising to cleanse his portfolio of any investments that profit from their losses.

The Edwards groupies will still find a way to rationalize this away. Edwards does more to prove himself a hypocrite than just about anyone in politics these days, but when you say that to one of his acolytes, all you get is a blank look.
His fans are almost as brain-dead as Bush's.
