I’m thinking Greek souvlakis tonight with Melody and some friends in honor of America’s biggest Greek tragedy incarnate, John Edwards. Edwards has no friends any more. Once the prettiest, smartest, nicest, best-haired thing on the national political scene, our very own Orestes now must come to court on corruption charges with his elderly mommy and daddy.
Not only was a outed as a liar, a cheater and possibly the most self-centered man on Earth, Edwards treated now-dead Elizabeth Edwards — possibly the coolest lady on the planet — like crap.
Even if Edwards manages to keep his sorry butt out of jail, he can look forward to long nights playing gin with ma and pa, and waiting for his kids to not call back. Greek can be so hard to swallow sometimes.
