tsk tsk tsk at calling me a pig.
And now all can see how much you've LOWERED yourself by calling names.
Need me to find the post again where you once accused the 'right' of not being able to converse without calling names....said it was the only way THEY could communicate????
Yes, you sure did. And I've had to post YOUR words so you could re-read them over and over again.
tsk tsk tsk
You've sunk SO low.

Linda, If you have read anything about Mrs. Edwards' cancer, you would know that it depends on the type of cancer.
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) -- Elizabeth Edwards said that she got some good news: She has a type of cancer that is more likely to be controlled by anti-estrogen drugs.
Mrs. Edwards, wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, expressed frustration with reports that she's likely to die within five years. She said doctors can't give her a reliable life expectancy and even if they could, the information would be of no comfort to her.
"I don't care," she said in an interview Tuesday with The Associated Press as she campaigned with her husband.
"I'm going to fight exactly as hard if they tell me that I've got 15 years or if I've got 30 years. I'm still going to fight to get rid of this -- if they tell me I've got 15 minutes I'm still going to fight. It doesn't matter what the prognosis is. So it's not an important piece of information to me."
The Edwardses announced nearly two weeks ago that the breast cancer she thought she had beaten with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy had spread to her bone. They said they had no intention of ending his bid because doctors told her that although she's likely to die from the disease eventually, the campaign wouldn't interfere with her treatment.
Mrs. Edwards had her first post-diagnosis doctor's visit Friday and emerged encouraged. She said her doctor expected she had the most aggressive "triple-negative" cancer, but testing found that she had two of the three key hormonal receptors -- estrogen and progesterone. She said her the original diagnosis was "slightly estrogen heavy," but this time it's a strong marker and she also has the second marker.
"I consider that a good sign," Mrs. Edwards said in an interview in an art classroom before appearing with her husband at the Prairie High School gymnasium. "It means there are more medications which I can expect to be responsive."
Mrs. Edwards, pointing out a large bruise on the back of her hand and another on her forearm from her IV, said she got an initial course of a bone-building drug. She's also taking Femara, an aromatase inhibitor, but is not undergoing chemotherapy treatments.
She said the development of drugs such as Femara is one of many reasons that reports that she's likely to die within five years are not accurate.
"Femara didn't exist five years ago," she said. "I don't expect to get yesterday's medicine. If I can help it, I'd like to get tomorrow's medicine."
Several news organization have reported an American Cancer Society statistic that says the five-year survival rate for Stage IV breast cancer that spread to other organs is just 26 percent. But the cancer society put out a statement saying that is not applicable in her case because it only applies when a woman initially walks into a doctor's office with Stage IV breast cancer, not when she had treatment and the cancer later spread.
There are few good estimates of survival time for these patients. Treatment is easiest if the recurrence is limited to the breast area, and survival is much shorter if the cancer spreads aggressively to vital organs like the liver, lungs or brain.
The bone seems to be somewhere in the middle. A subset of patients with estrogen receptor-positive tumors that appear in only the bone have a good chance at surviving for 10 years, according to Dr. Julia Smith, head of the New York University Cancer Institutes' breast cancer prevention program.
Mrs. Edwards said she's marking 10 years as her "bottom line."
"But even then I'm not happy," she said. "I'm 67 in 10 years. That's not enough. I've got more stuff to do."

Thanks for the update, Coincoach. It sounds encouraging and I applaud Mrs. Edwards for her upbeat attitude. Too bad there are some that have to judge her and her husband because of the way they choose to live their lives when it's really none of their business at all.

LOL....and our resident hypocrite, kiara, would know all about getting in other peoples business.....LOL LOL LOL
-----------
I read that article before, coincoach. But there's also many others that speak to the issue of her cancer ALSO having advanced to other areas....not just her breast bone.
I would expect her to put on a 'public' - "I'm strong I will fight it". Most everyone would. And I wish her WELL at it.
But her cancer is stage four....THAT was the diagnosis ALL reports have mentioned. That's NOT in any way 'good news'. No way, shape or form.
And it certainly doesn't change my mind about HIS screwed up priorities.
Guess the 'new wife' ....somewhere down the road... will be the one enjoying the 28,000 sq. ft NEW home/homestead they're building. This Mrs. Edwards won't.

I have never interfered in anyone's business here or anywhere else ever so that's another lie of yours, Linda_K. You sure know about interfering with others though. Now why don't you just shove it and take your crap somewhere else for a change.

LOL....did you say that with a smile on your face and all calm and everything???
LOL LOL LOL
Of course you do. Each and everytime you make some FALSE statement about anything regarding my PERSONAL life.
But your memory must fail you again....you just can't remember, can you? LOL LOL LOL
=========
Get a clue for once, kiara. They're PUBLIC figures....THEY made this information PUBLIC.
Just because I don't agree with the 'take' on their decision doesn't mean I don't have the SAME right as YOU do to voice MY OPINION here or anywhere else.
One does NOT have to agree with anyone to post their opposing positions.

Linda_k, I made a comment to Coincoach thanking her for the update on Mrs. Edwards and your name was not mentioned at all, nor did I address you. Now I realize that you're itching for a fight no matter what topic I choose to post to and you will even lie to do it but once and for all, just #*!@ off. Thank you.
posted on April 5, 2007 07:50:34 AM new
And I'll remind you kiara that you don't tell ANYONE where to go....post. lol
Since your memory is so terrible....I'll also remind you that when I did leave the RT....you and mingo missed me so much that you had to follow me over there to harass me there.
Couldn't just enjoy me not being here....nope....you had to get your 'sick kicks' by going over there.
tsk tsk tsk
SMILE now....stay calm....wouldn't want anyone to get the idea that anything ever upsets you. LOL LOL LOL

YOU went over there and started badmouthing me when I didn't even post there anymore. You brought my name there and also accused other posters of being me.
Now this conversation is about Mrs. Edwards so either discuss her or run off and mess in someone else's business and interfere in their lives like you're so good at doing.
posted on April 5, 2007 07:58:17 AM new
Uh oh....tsk tsk tsk....kiara doesn't 'sound' to calm, cool and collected now.
Blowing THAT pretention.
Then again...more of her GAMES of pretend.
She states:
"Too bad there are some that have to judge her and her husband because of the way they choose to live their lives when it's really none of their business at all."
Then CLAIMS....FALSELY...."and your name was not mentioned at all, nor did I address you. Now I realize that you're itching for a fight no matter what topic I choose to post to and you will even lie to do it but once and for all, just #*!@ off. Thank you.
tsk tsk tsk cursing again....tsk tsk tsk LOL LOL LOL but no doubt.....all calm, cool and collected with a BIG smile on her face....as she always claims.
Now most with brains can see just WHOM she was referring to.....there have only been TWO posters who didn't agree with her 'world views' on this issue. lol lol lol
But she LIVES in DENIAL.....so she doesn't see it 'as addressing ME'.
How funny.
Do you need help on how to use your IGNORE button kiara? Or might you be able to figure it out.....all by yourself?

"Some" ........ collectively ALL the people nationwide that judge the Edwards for their decision, not just the hog here that judges them unkindly. It's not always about the RT hog that stinks up the board daily. Hopefully it's more clear now.

Linda: But don't go thinking you're going to tell me to leave....or how to post....or what to post.
Then she tells Kiara: if my posting bothers you so much......use the ignore button
Then she has the nerve to call kiara a hypocrite when she just did the exact same thing.
Linda is the biggest hypocrite on the board. tsk tsk tsk.

Hey CLUELESS....LD
The ignore button is was put there for those who can't self moderate. lol
Has nothing to do with you telling me to shut up...and leave....or kiara telling me the same thing.
THOSE are no where to be found in the 'helpful' aids that Vendio gives those of you who can't control yourselves.

Linda, you are beneath contempt. We have no way of knowing if all the facts are out, and that includes you. I have known many women who have lived 10,15 years with stage 4 breast cancer, without benefit of the newest drugs we have today. Your mind is so warped by your hatred of anything or anyone Dem/liberal that you spew mean spirited garbage like the quote above. Your hatred has clouded any logical (nevermind compassionate) thinking. Isn't it tiring to be so filled with hatred? Despite your constant criticism of them, I would be surprised if anyone on this board would say such a thing if it were a Republican or conservative family going through this.

Here's one of linduh's "positive" comments on the Edwards:
""Guess the 'new wife' ....somewhere down the road... will be the one enjoying the 28,000 sq. ft NEW home/homestead they're building. This Mrs. Edwards won't.""
What a nasty thing to say!
Projecting repug standards onto the Edwards !
It was a REPUBLICAN who served his wife divorce papers as she was in the hospital recovering from cancer surgery.
Whatsa matter, linduh, that guy YOU had lined up for after your husband's funeral take a hike on ya ??
Hard for you to see the love and devotion of this very popular COUPLE ???

Whether Elizabeth Edwards has months or years left, she is not now at death's door, nor is she feeling ill at last report. This is far different from heart surgery, which is immediately life-threatening and recovery, which is debilitating. Apples and oranges. Nice try.

Sounds like Linda is jelaous. Edwards may get a new wife before Linda finds a new husband.

Linda, As with a lot of arrogant people, you think everyone swallows that bullcrap you fling. You did not make that statement as just pointing out reality. You and I and everyone on this board knows that you made that statement in a mean-spirited manner, snidely commenting about a couple who is going through a very tough time and making an underhanded reference to their 28,000 square foot "homestead." It is your M.O. to post in this manner, so it is not surprising that you did it again. However, I do note that you can't take the criticism you receive when you do make these duplicitous posts. As I've said before, you are as transparent as a pane of glass and so are your motives for the things you post.
Linda's thought process: Democrat=EVIL
Republican=saintly. No exceptions--and this covers any and all subjects.
