Re: Rest in peace, Elizabeth
KDR thanks for posting the a link to the transcript...and I'd like to thank Jane for sharing the name of this ding bat "Gloria Bolger" that made the comment. I had already fired off one email that 1st day about this to CNN. But now with the added info I just blasted them again with the exact words that were said from the transcript...and with whom said them. (So thanks ladies!) I normally watch FOX only but they were at commercial so I switch over just in time to hear that. I hope she loses her job. Elizabeth was a pretty women and John Edwards should of been so lucky to have her. He is by far the worse "cancer" Elizabeth had.

I think Elizabeth was a beautiful women inside and out...and a true inspriation to so many that are battling this dreadful disease. It's so sad we lost her so soon. My heart especially goes out to her childern that were left behind.
