"If we want to live in a moral, honest just America and if we want to live in a moral and just world, we can't wait for somebody else to do it."
"We have to do it."
Bear in mind that the "extra-marital sex while your wife is fighting cancer" is just a piece of the puzzle here.
The woman "Honest Eddie" slept with, received $115,000 dollars from the Edwards campaign organisation for producing four short videos that ended up on Youtube.
Nice work if you can get it.
