John Edwards - New Orleans, LA

[TOWLIBAN32123]

RIGGS!!!! RIGGS!!!! man im getting to old for this shit

[JoeSparro]

how did this guy drag down Kerry? I think it was the other way around

[vinylsyrinx]

If the house is as immovable as his hair, it'll be a fine house.

[urthanjell]

I met Mr. Glover tonight. He's such an amazing person!!!

[bucklaw]

I can see the vulgar comments belong to Republicans, good job guys, make fun of a guy who IS helping the poor.

[moremi123]

You can only run for office if you have big money; how can you make that money, or get large enough donations, without compromising your progressive ideals? so you do make money, or take $ from rich people, and then you're vulnerable to accusations of hypocrisy. democrats have begun to raise money by getting small amounts from lots of ordinary people, but its still not enough on its own. the system thus makes it really difficult for anyone left of center to take part in politics. neat trick.

[Lvmyh2]

BAWAHAHAHAAAAAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAA­AAAAAA! ! ! LIAR LIAR

The Wall Street Journal on Friday:

34 New Orleans homeowners who face foreclosure actions from Fortress.

Edwards worked for Fortress Investment Group, getting paid $479,512. He also had $2.7 million to $8.5 million invested in Fortress, according to his personal financial report. And Fortress executives have donated generously to his presidential campaign—company employees have donated more than $150,000 toward his candidacy this year.

[bucklaw]

So if you are rich you can't help the poor. Jeepers we are screwed. Does Obama have a hammer or Hillary or McCain?

[Lvmyh2]

If they have a hammer they can pound a nail.

Edwards is a HYPOCRITE! He claims to care about the poor, but he is just as greedy as the people he's bashing. As evidenced by the above comment. America saw through him and he got tossed.

[squidb8]

Actually given America's track record, the fact he didn't make it to the primaries makes him more qualified the the Hillary or Obama. Case in point, who did the Dems put against G.W. . Kerry, the fact Bush won the vote doesn't mean he was better. It meant America wasn't willing to fire one idiot that acted promptly, for one that waffled.

[bucklaw]

And who owns the Wall Street Journal?

[SP567]

Just listen at all of you. How many of you hammered even one nail to help those people. I'm from the N.O. area and a few nails from anyone would have helped, hair or no hair. Katrina was the biggest photo-op in history. But just trash eveybody! It's America.

[mosherzog]

I'm sorry but, aren't we a capitalist country? Why should John Edwards "sell that mansion"? They all have mansions. Some candidates with mansions want to subsidize big oil and sell our country to defense contractors. Others want to address poverty. This type of criticism comes from corporate stooges who hate the poor.

[k3304]

"actor" Glover is the luckiest man in the world

he hasnt got much talent, even as a carpenter

he's like Ringo in the Beatles, too lucky

[k3304]

George Bush just sent $30 Billion for AIDS to Africa

thats's with a "B", he doubled it

Girly Man Edwards is commie

[davidleih]

Danny Glover is a communist piece of shit, and John Edwards is in his back pocket. They both suck!

[PartyWithChumpsky]

Exactly.

[GalacticCabaret]

Danny Glover reminds me of OJ Simpson.

[funtguy]

OK, politicians and movie stars spending one morning hammering nails is purely symbolic, but Bush didn't event mention Katrina in his state of the union. Now if Edwards would just sell that mansion...

[TheTorturer666]

Not purely symbolic. Most politicians, and this is fact, do mere photo opp's, hammer a nail or two, he spent the morning. That is something that a lot of candidates would have a problem with.

So, I give him credit for that. He spent day's in New Orleans doing that kind of shit.

That's true about Bush, and Edwards' money, say a multi-million dollar donation would have done more...

But a morning for a politician, that ain't bad.

[jsxdude]

edwards is a faggot and glover is 1 stupid nigger

[harysmall]

Jerk

[CamelN]

Danny Glover is super cool

[heathazed]

I´m sorry I´m being nasty but this video is so wrong. Why does D.Glover speak as though he´s being pointed at with a gun? He´s meant to be a good actor... talk about enthusiasm.

[gottogosome]

This event was setup for the TV cameras. This guy's a fraud.

[heathazed]

There is something about calling D.Glover "brother" and getting filmed nailing a plank of wood that just feels.... fake. He says all the right things but I just see style-no substance. Good luck though.

[walternyc]

what a phony

[ramblnman24]

this man is not for defending this country but to stroke his own ego and get richer from this great nation! he is a ambulance chaser. people from his own state dont care for him! except for the few that will back him just to try to defend their state in namesake only

[freedom2soar]

Edward is a good person, and danny Glower a patriot.

But there can only be one President and that President must be an outsider like Barak O'Bamma, with Al Gore or John Edwards as his running mate (V.P).

Both had their chance and both lost it.

Mr. Gore should not have let go so easily, he destroyed this nation by turning it over to a "Bad Boy".

And now served by a secretary of State with a subconsious crush on a White Bad Boy running the strongest nation in the world.

[Hellfireblogs]

Did Katrina really "victimize" anyone? Are storms malicious or do bad things happen sometime, especailly to cities shaped like a cereal bowl.

[ramblnman24]

not vote for that lyin lawyer dan!

[sigmundson]

After seeing Edward's long hair, it reminded me that I am overdue for a haircut myself... So I'm going to go get a haircut Danny, that's what I'm going to do. And it will probably only cost about a 10th of what your "brother" Edwards pays for his! You could definitely do with better society than that Danny.

[Draza145]

maverickccs, so fucking ignorant of you. Not just you but all americans. Every fucking left-wing party is a communist party. Come on you idiots, you have been brainwashed by propaganda since NATO was founded.

[dsfddsgh]

Does anybody fit the description empty suit better then this guy? Just another ambulance chasing lawyer talking about ppor people while getting $400 haircuts. Nice hair though but that's about all he has.

[schratboy]

Hugo the commies Hollywood bitch! Hey Danny, did Hugo also fix you up with some Latino hos?

[maverickccs]

Danny Glover its a Communist.

[Auriex]

...as in, "Look out Dannie!  Its a Communist! Aiiiiieeee!"?

[ChiefNakedButt]

George W Bush is a Fascist. One of them is helping build a house and the other one is destoying thousands of lives every day.

[whitewolfsarctic]

Edwards an actor, does Bush want him as replacement for Mel Gibson ?

[malacri1]

If you do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hours..

[Turgis123]

That hug was about the most fixed thing I've seen in showbiz since the Jerry Springer fights. =/

Nothing against helping the victums - keep up the good work. Just seemed more like exploiting the situation raher than helping. There's a lovely scripture about the man donating his money without wanting attention receiving the actual blssings rather than the man who donated for all to see.

[xxxxoxxxx9]

Danny Glover is a Commie, end of story.

[strategyminded]

Define communism.

[JimTarr79]

Idiot.

[xxxxoxxxx9]

We know you are a idiot if you don't think Danny Glover is a Commie.

[JimTarr79]

Hahaha. Nice sentence structure. "We know you are a idiot".

Oh dear, Danny Glover shook John Edward's hands and used his spare time to help rebuild an area affected by Hurrican Katrina. That must make him a communist.

My point stands. Idiot.

[Nominay]

It's not the end of the story. First of all, he's not a communist. He's a communist sympathizer - big difference. He's also an American citizen, and he likes to pick up a hammer and help out. That's good isn't it? Do you not want Danny Glover to not ever do a good deed?

[xxxxoxxxx9]

Danny Glover is a actor, I want him to act, not run the Government.

[Nominay]

He's not trying to run the govt. He's in New Orleans trying to help out. Do you believe in America or do you not believe in people being political activists?

[KrazyKoreanGlock]

Glover never knew how to act! Edwards how about donating your mansion for the people please. How bout you stop getting $400 haircuts!

[pdb1980]

it's his own cash.. let him decide what he does with it..

[micahstubz]

Yeah but as a socialist he wants to take our cash to feed the poor. America doesn't need to be forced to take care of the needy. And the needy shouldn't EXPECT to be taken care. This is the land of opportunity.

[stewart0312]

I hope John Edwards would be the DNCs choice for Prez because we need change in government and he is our best chance. Last time I was there, I don't think the US was ready for Hillary or Obama. Maybe after we clean up the mess left by Bush and his cronies, then we can think about a black or a female Prez.

[1acrimosa]

God, i hope you win.

[macewan]

Thanks for doing good work for those that need it the most.

[GlobeBar]

Great work Sen. Edwards!

[gmfutube]

Yep. A bit more difficult to make excuses for not being able to help the people in KS.

Wake up folks!

[AuntLissa53]

I am upset about New Orleans, also Greensburg, Ks. The Ks. Gov. stated that the National Guard is unable to help as much as needed in Greensburg because of troops overseas....the White House denied that this is the situation. I want to take care of Americans here is America. I can help by voting for John Edwards. I can lift a hammer, I can offer food and shelter, I can make a difference. I can make a difference in AMERICA. Thank you.

[Cinderlouwho]

The fact that New Orleans is still such a mess is a testament to how little value the Republicans and Bush place on the people of that area, particularly the poor. Bush never cared about them. In his last State of the Union, he never mentioned New Orleans. Wow.

We need John Edwards, and people like him, to return our nation's focus from occupying foreign lands to fixing what's wrong here at home.

John Edwards 2008!

[jacxrcool]

Thank you for your efforts. You have my support.

[astrogirlsirius]

It's so nice to see someone running for the presidency who actually cares about the people. Nice work! Thanks to both John Edwards and Danny Glover for their work.

[bartolemeo]

Senator, it's pathetic that we can't take care of people here at home, while we spill billions in money and blood somewhere else. Now we find ourselves without equipment to help the tornado victims for the same reason. I tend to hear a lot of "well, that's how it's always been", but I continue to ask "WHY?". I'll be working on Habitat projects this year, getting started with them. Many thanks for your stand - Matt in NC
