if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained?"

Maybe she was there as his hair stylist?
At 9:45 p.m. (PST) Monday, Edwards appeared at the hotel, and was dropped off at a side entrance. NATIONAL ENQUIRER reporter Alan Butterfield witnessed the ex-senator get out of a BMW driven by a male companion and stroll into the hotel.
Said Butterfield: “Edwards was not carrying anything. He walked in alone. He was wearing a blue dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. He was looking around nervously before he entered the hotel.“Once inside, he interestingly bypassed the lobby and ducked down a side stairs to go to the bottom floor to catch the elevator up - rather than taking the elevator in the main lobby. He went out of his way not to be seen.”
Meanwhile, Rielle had reserved rooms 246 and 252 under the name of the friend who had accompanied her from Santa Barbara, Bob McGovern. Rielle was in one room and McGovern was in another with her baby. This allowed her and Edwards to spend time alone, a source revealed.Edwards went out of the hotel briefly with Rielle, they were observed by the NATIONAL ENQUIRER and then went back to her room, where he stayed until attempting to sneak out of the hotel unseen at 2:40 a.m. (PST). But when he emerged alone from an elevator into the hotel basement he was greeted by several reporters from the NATIONAL ENQUIRER.
Senior NATIONAL ENQUIRER Reporter Alexander Hitchen asked Edwards why he was visiting Rielle and whether he was ready to confirm that he was the father of her baby.
Shocked to see a reporter, and without saying anything, Edwards ran up the stairs leading from the hotel basement to the lobby. But, spotting a photographer, he doubled back into the basement. As he emerged from the stairwell, reporter Butterfield questioned him about his hookup with Rielle.
Edwards did not answer and then ran into a nearby restroom. He stayed inside for about 15 minutes, refusing to answer questions from the NATIONAL ENQUIRER about what he was doing in the hotel. A group of hotel security men eventually escorted him from the men’s room, while preventing the NATIONAL ENQUIRER reporters from following him out of the hotel.
Said reporter Hitchen: “After we confronted him about seeing Rielle, Edwards looked like a deer caught in headlights!
“He was clearly surprised that we had caught him at this very late hour inside the hotel.
“Some guests up at this late hour watched the spectacle in amusement from a staircase nearby.”
Why is it that so many politicians find the men’s room as a place of refuge?

And this stooge might be our next VP. I guess, we can’t get away from our Veeps shooting folks in the face.
All the MSM are in the Middle East servicing Obama’s unit. Charles Gibson is a swallower, you know. Anyway, If it’s on TV then liberals own 99% of it and this will never see the light of day.
Remember the liberals in congress during the Clinton impeachment who said if Clinton was caught with a dead body (or something like that) they wouldn’t vote to impeach. Liberals are completely morally bankrupt.
At least Fox News should be covering it. But, it was on Drudge and Fark, so most of the world knows about it by now…
Liberals are completely morally bankrupt.
And conservatives are a bunch of moralizing hypocrites.
Aren’t generalizations fun?

I know you are just a troll, but still, fuck off and go to LGF or where ever.
I’m not a liberal and I hate the kind of shit you just spewed.
I hate it from Conservatives. I hate it from Libs.
You have an argument to make, make it. Don’t spout off inane bullshit for the sake of seeing your handle in a thread.
All politicians are morally bankrupt, you just have to find out in what area. Is it a “wide stance”, or “I did not have sexual relations with that woman”? Doesn’t matter, they are all fit for little else other than a public execution.
This is from the National Enquirer? And why aren’t we questioning the story’s veracity?
If it keeps Edwards from getting the VP slot, then I say hooray for the National Enquirer.
Oh, and…
Liberals are completely morally bankrupt.
This isn’t Free Republic, most of the people here have half a brain and memories that stretch back far enough for us to be able to recall the moral failings of Mark Foley, Larry Craig and David Vitters. Neither the GOP nor the Democrats will ever be able to corner the market on sex, drugs, gambling, boozing, greed, or whatever other vices you can think of.
Grow up.

Because even though it’s a scandal rag, it is typically quite accurate on this sort of thing. Being sued for libel makes you cautious - and NE is actually quite careful about getting their stories straight, and has been for a long time.
Now, if it was the “World Daily News” with another story of “Batboy”, you’d have a point.

YES! YES!! YES!!!

No chance of that anymore…

That’s for sure, and thank heavens.
My vote would be on a very, very dark horse: Brian Schweitzer from Montana.
He’s a pro life conservative Democrat.
A hydrologist, with expertise on the environment, and he lived in Saudi Arabia for 5 years or so and speaks Arabic.
But he brings real world knowledge from the bread basket, and is smart, articulate and gives a huge boost in the inter-mountain west. His farming and environmental creds will keep the greens at bay and please the conservative dems. Lived in Saudi Arabia so have mid east experience and still has friends there.
Won’t happen, but a fantastic out of the box pick. And the chops to run for the big seat in 2016, or 12, if BO boots it.

I’m not a liberal ...
Wow, I admit I’ve not posted in a while but I opened my account here years ago. Sorry I made you cry.
This isn’t Free Republic, most of the people here have half a brain...
Oh, you having half a brain was never in doubt.
Where did all the pussies come from? I remember when deadissue got plonked for similar wussiness. If my conservative views don’t make you all warm and fuzzy inside that’s not my problem. Go read the first amendment.

Why isn’t MSM running with this?
I’m sure that Obama was caught visiting an ugly blonde woman in a hotel it would be all over the news…
