Johnny, How Could You?

John Edwards is still being investigated regarding how campaign funds were used during his presidential run. Federal prosecutors and his lawyers are battling it out over how campaign finance law deals with gifts and third party payments. John's gifts were about two supporters with more money than sense. These supporters provided more than a million dollars to pay to keep Rielle Hunter's mouth shut. I guess whenever "Johnny" pissed off Rielle she would threaten to go to the press. Evidently lots of money was required to keep her quiet during the campaign. But what has got me to pondering about is Bunny Mellon. Bunny is 100 years old. She was a friend of Jacqueline Kennedy. It seems Bunny became a money source after being upset about press coverage of John's $400.00 haircuts. She "volunteered" to pay whatever expenses John had that were not covered by the campaign.Evidently that included a valet. I am sorry but what does a man born to factory workers in Robbins need with a valet? Surely he dressed himself sometime in his life. Bunny is believed to have "voluntarily donated" $700,000 to John. When did she know that she was financing a mistress and fake baby daddy? Bunny and her family have been to the Raleigh courthouse. John and she had lunch last week. I guess that means she and John are still BFF. But,hello, the woman is 100 and $700,000 is lots of money. Especially to use to keep an affair secret from a wife with cancer. Does Bunny think he is John Kennedy because of his boyish good looks? At 100 her eyesight can't be great and who knows about her mental acuity. Maybe she thinks he is John Kennedy! But I keep going back to the $700,000. That is lots of money for anybody. John's campaign was about being the poor people's president. So why didn't that $700,000 go to giving haircuts to homeless people, foster children, or just about anybody but John. But guess what, has anybody heard a peep out of Rielle since her magazine spread? Nope! I guess Johnny is digging in his own pocket to keep her quiet now. Bless his little heart!
