A federal grand jury has indicted two-time presidential candidate John Edwards in a campaign finance investigation.

The case of USA v. Johnny Reid Edwards contains six counts, including conspiracy, four counts of illegal campaign contributions and one count of false statements. The indictment was returned in the Middle District of North Carolina Friday.

It couldn't have happened to a bigger asshole.

I hope your pockets are deep, Johnny. You're gonna need all the $$ you can pony up to worm your way out of this one.

Remember all those ambulance-chasing cases you negotiated? Remember all the pain and suffering you capitalized on?

Oh, and while you're shelling out the big bucks for your attorney buddies, don't forget the trail of detritus you've left in your wake. You've got a couple of almost-grown kids who despise you and a toddler that you fathered when all you thought you were doing was dipping your wick someplace other than your wife.

Karma's a bitch, ain't it Johnny?

Bubba's gonna love you like the sister bitch you are.

Didn't he recently say that he would kill himself if he got jail time?  To bad Dr. Kervorkian is no longer around to help him with his death wish.

Cheer up Johnny. O.K. so maybe the food in prison isn't quite up to your country club standards but there's a tossed salad after every meal!

He's sure pretty, ain't he?

I hear the faint pluck of banjos and the blink blink, blink blink of Cal Piggy's poetry being read by sterno light as he gets ass-plowed.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Hi,

If my memory serves me correctly he is also responsible for the flu vaccine no longer being made in the US and in short supply.  As I recall he sued the drug companies in a class action suit and won and his cut was something like $60 million so they drug companies stopped making the product, which they were pretty much selling for cost.  All of a sudden there was a shortage of flu vaccine and no one knew, or chose to report why......except of course Rush Limbaugh.

regards,

Hell is to good for Mr. Edwards......

The Spiro Agnew rule.  No way are they putting a former VP in prison.

I'll bet those prison barbers aren't quite as fancy as what he's accustomed to. I wonder if he'd be as pretty in a buzz cut.  :-)

Wasn't a VP.  He's still eligible for ass-plowing from Bubba.

Good point.   :thatsright:

I was thinking Al Gore for some reason.  The two of them are essentially twins, IMO.
