No longer 'two Americas', there are three

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

The fantastically rich John Edwards likes to tell us there are "two Americas". Now that he has called on fellow Demotards to shun News Corporation donations after taking $800,000 for a book deal with one of Murdoch's companies, I'm convinced there are three Americas: rich, poor, and the one Johnny inhabits -- an America of liberal hypocrisy. FoxNews:

    John Edwards, who yesterday demanded Democratic candidates return any campaign donations from Rupert Murdoch and News Corp., himself earned at least $800,000 for a book published by one of the media mogul's companies.

    The Edwards campaign said the multimillionaire trial lawyer would not return the hefty payout from Murdoch for the book titled "Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives."

    The campaign didn't respond to a question from The Post about whether it was hypocritical for Edwards to take money from News Corp. while calling for other candidates not to.
