Edwards asked aide to claim paternity, sources say
RALEIGH, North Carolina (CNN) -- Former Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards talked a campaign aide into claiming he fathered a child born to Edwards' onetime mistress, sources familiar with the issue said Monday.
Edwards admitted to his affair with Rielle Hunter in August 2008 after months of denials, but said he could not have been the father of Hunter's daughter, who was born the previous February. Former Edwards staffer Andrew Young has said he was the girl's father -- but has recanted and says he made it because he believed in Edwards, lawyers and others familiar with the matter told CNN.
Just wait, it gets better...
Young was married with children when he claimed to have fathered Hunter's child. He never signed any affidavits or legal papers, however, and reversed his claim after Edwards, as one of the sources put it, dropped Young "like a hot potato."
There really are two Americas - one where people don't act like complete and utter pieces of shit towards everyone else on the fucking planet, and John Edwards' sad, pathetic little world...
That is all.

See if the Obama death panels were in place Edwards could have that sick wife of his disposed of so he could more easily transition into a new model.
Think Cash for Clunkers....for total assholes!
What a difference it would have made if he had simply said "I made a mistake and knocked up my girlfriend, and I will support our kid forever" rather than try to weasel out of it.
Libertyman, he's a weasel and he did what weasels do. He's such an arrogant POS that I wouldn't be surprised if he still thinks he can run for President and win.
