8. It's a pleasure to be on DU of a Saturday morning and encounter
you there as well, ninga.

I am hearing you. I'm not celebrating over the story by any means and I'm sure you and I and others could sit around a tavern table and be in agreement on many points to this story.

I invoke Nell Gwynn and Alexander as moving screens to advance the notion that the severity of adultery in Edwards' case is less than the ignorance and hyper-judgment of the coach-mob.

The Right attacked Edwards prior to this story and will gloat over its publication by the Enquirer.

An anonymuous third-shift clerk at a 7-11 story in Omaha or Little Rock would not be a headline story, whether he or she were faithful to a spouse, or not, or whether they went to a church that preached fidelity in marriage, or not.
