Edwards gets $500,000 salary every year from Fortress Investments. That sure adds up over time.
He has made millions of dollars with his $16 million worth of investments at Fortress.
He has taken $150,000 in campaign contributions from these close friends of his.
Hillary and Obama have also taken over $10,000 from Fortress.
Do Hillary, Obama, and Edwards now support sub-prime lenders who they had accused of "predatory practices" against the poor?

They'd take money from Satan if it gave them a chance at the White House.

Edwards just said he would not do that anymore but lets see if he really steps up and sends past donations back. Its easy for someone who is losing the race to come up with all these new rules since it gives them media attention that their non-starting campaign is getting.

Tell me, do you know EVERY company your 401K or IRA manager invests your money into? If you and I need money managers imangine what busier, wealthier people need. Edwards found out and called someone to stop it. Would you just let it go if you found your money manager had invested in something you didn't like or would you call and stop it?

What do you expect from a schister lawyer like Edwards.
With the Dems this "I want to help you" is a farce and their cute con game.
They want to help themselves to you.

I didn't realise the Republicans didn't have any major donations from business groups.

I wonder the same thing about Cheney and Haliburton. How can that sick bastard profit off of our men who are dying over there?
