By this time we all know more about John Edwards and Elizabeth Edwards than we ever wanted to know. It was bad enough when we thought the two of them had sex with each other. Then we learned that John had sex with some strumpet videographer who had his bastard kid. And then we learned that John and Elizabeth were splitting up (that was really a surprise, lemme tell you).
The following takes the cake: The National Enquirer just published a story in which — no shit — some unnamed person who’s totally reliable probably tells the N.E. that John beat the hell out of Elizabeth and that’s why they’re splitting.
Cancer-stricken Elizabeth Edwards is telling pals that John beat her during a horrific marriage-ending fight, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.
“John lost his temper big-time,” revealed a close friend of Elizabeth.
“She has the divorce papers drawn up, but she can amend them to charge John with domestic violence.
“She’s holding that over his head right now – and he’s scared. Elizabeth is in control.”
Elizabeth privately disclosed all the shocking details of the alleged attack, says a close friend.
Does the whole thing end here? Or better yet, Edwardses, will you please end it here? You’d be doing America a favor.


The only thing that would make that story better is if James O’Keefe dressed as John Edwards did the beating…you know, as investigative journalism.
