John Edwards’ Phony Fox Attack

For the second time in recent months, Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards has canceled his participation in a debate because of Fox News Channel’s involvement.

Since August 2000, the former North Carolina senator went on FNC 33 times without objection.

In what seemed like a desperate attempt to distinguish himself from Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, when far-left activist groups like MoveOn.org started pressuring him, Edwards bowed to bloggers’ demands.

“We believe there's just no reason for Democrats to give Fox a platform to advance the right-wing agenda while pretending they're objective,” Edwards’ deputy campaign manager Jonathan Prince whimpered to The Associated Press.

The Edwards campaign suggested that the carefully coiffed candidate is “'looking forward to a different debate hosted by the institute and CNN in South Carolina in January 2008.”

Based on his quick cave-in to pesky lefties, Edwards has shown that for either of his Americas, when push comes to shove, he’ll roll like a baloney sausage.
