Rielle Hunter, Edwards former mistress, is releasing a tell-all on June 26th which may help Hunter's bottom line but will sink Edwards reputation to rock bottom. 

Call it Rielle's (and Elizabeth's) revenge..

What Really Happened: John Edwards, Our Daughter, and Me is being billed as a tell-all about the events behind the dramatic downfall of Edwards, whose political corruption trial ended Thursday with an acquittal on one charge and a mistrial on others.

Governor Bob McDonnell with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Governor Bob McDonnell of Virginia. 

McDonnell and Ingraham spoke about the positive economy in Virginia in contrast to the weakening national economy.  McDonnell agreed with Ingraham that Obama is an enemy of the coal industry which is akin to not drilling for oil in Saudi Arabia.  

McDonnell said AG Holder is wrong in denigrating the various states voter ID law and said Virginia has had one for 12 years.  He has signed on to sending ID cards to anyone who needs one to ensure that all can vote.  

Colin Powell with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted former Secretary of State Colin Powell, author of "It Worked For Me".

Powell said he won't offer an opinion on whether President Obama should have a terror kill list.  He doesn't know why people would leak this information.  He said there are ways to find out who is leaking information without calling a special counsel.  

Powell said we should aspire to be the most inspirational and said we shouldn't use the word force or dominant.  He said we need to fix our economy and education system which he works on.  He thinks America is looked up to and it is the most sought destination for people abroad.  He said our example that attracts people.  

Powell said he is holding off on his preference for president until he evaluates more information from both sides.  He said the financial system was on near collapse and that Obama built on President Bush's work.  

Powell said he hopes people of all ages read his book.

The U.S. economy suddenly looks a lot weaker.

U.S. employers created only 69,000 jobs in May, the fewest in a year, and the unemployment rate ticked up.

The dismal jobs data will fan fears that the economy is sputtering. It could also damage President Barack Obama's re-election prospects. And it could lead the Federal Reserve to take further steps to help the economy.

Mitt Romney scooped President Obama's henchman David Axelrod who planned big hit on Romney in his hometown of Boston.  Romney responded by calling a press conference in Fremont, California on a big business failure of President Obama's on the taxpayers' dime, Solyndra, the green energy company that went bankrupt.  

 

 

"Ingraham Angle": Selective Abortion of Girls

The "Ingraham Angle" with Laura Ingraham centered on the House debate over selective abortion and the measure against it which went down.  The bill would levy penalties on any health care professional that would abort a baby based on gender, race, etc..  

Ingraham said that this issue is beyond pro-life but goes to basic human decency.  She cited President Obama's statements about not allowing his daughter to be punished by being forced to bear a child.  O'Reilly noted that there has been little coverage of this story in the mainstream media and Ingraham commended Lila Rose of Live Action whose stings have highlighted such abuses.  

Laura Ingraham hosted Raymond Arroyo of EWTN of "The World Over" on "Art and Soul".

Arroyo said the debate on sex selective abortions puts Democrats in the cross hairs.  Both he and Ingraham said this is the real war on women.  Both commended Lila Rose's Live Action pro0life group for bringing this issue into the public conversation with a sting operation at a Texas Planned Parenthood site.  The House of Representatives is voting on this today.  

Ingraham and Arroyo discussed whether men are struggling.  Two factors are the video game and porn addictions making them have difficulty getting out of an ego centered fantasy world.    

Twyla Barnes with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Twyla Barnes.  

Barnes said that she isn't for any Massachusetts Senate candidate, but her group is demanding the truth from candidate Elizabeth Warren about having Cherokee ancestry.  Warren has now come out saying that she had forgotten that she told Harvard that she had Native American ancestry.  

Barnes said that a person shouldn't claim to be Native American unless one belongs to a recognized tribe which Warren isn't.  She said a true Cherokee is very aware of their ancestry each day of their lives.  She explained the details of how Warren would have to document her claim.  

Newt Gingrich with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Newt Gingrich.

Gingrich said there should be an operational person to be in charge of a terror kill list as the president wouldn't have time for this task.  He thinks the administration leaks anything they think will prop up Obama, regardless of the consequences.  

Gingrich said political parties are compressed when they don't reach out to states that aren't traditional winners for them.  He thinks California would be easier than New York for the GOP.  Both he and Ingraham agreed that no state should be written off.  

Donald Rumsfeld with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Donald Rumsfeld.

Rumsfeld and Ingraham discussed the tactics of terrorists and how the Obama administration has adhered to most of the policies that the Bush administration had in place, even as President Obama vigorously condemned them during the 2008 campaign.  Rumsfeld said that once a president sees the threats and the shadowy network of terror, he said one's outlook changes.  

Rumsfeld said the international community isn't a community but a disparate set of nations with their own issues.  He said the options in dealing with Syria are wide and cautioned about the consequences if Assad is overthrown, even as he is as brutal as his father.  He said he's not sure how the Obama administration is handling this as he doesn't have all the information and says there may be covert operations going on.  Both commented on the ineffectiveness of Kofi Annan and the UN's actions there.   

Rumsfeld remarked on the irony of how Obama is picking out the terrorists to be killed.  He and Ingraham agreed that the administration leaked this story.  Rumsfeld said it is egregious that the administration spilled out so much information about the killing of Osama bin Laden.  He said he hopes Romney will be elected.

Professor Timothy Considine with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Professor Timothy Considine.  

Considine said fracking aka hydraulic fractioning in which water is injected into rocks to break them open and has been around for sixty years and perfected over the past twenty years along with directional drilling.  He went through violations in the Pennsylvania Marcellus drilling site and found less than one percent violated environmental aspects and that this form of drilling is safer.  He said the fear is that the water supply would get contaminated.  He said shale beds where the drilling takes place is a mile below the water table and thus there is distance between the two areas.  

Considine said the University of Buffalo has stood by his study.  He deson't agree with the Public Accountability Initiative's criticisms.  He is employed by the University of Wyoming in the energy area which he also did at Penn State.  

Ingraham noted that he's accused of being bought and paid for by the shale industry and said he doesn't seem like someone who would airbrush his results.  He said he tells it like it is to the best of his ability.  He said much research is funded by industries and that they do a lot of R and D for industries.  

China and Russia Stand By Syria

China and Russia have reaffirmed their support for Syria, despite signing on to a UN statement to condemn the nation for its brutal treament of citizens in Houla.

Obviously this is a slap in the face to the Obama administration who is hoping to marshal  international pressure against Syria - and its sponsor Iran. 

 

"China opposes military intervention in Syria and opposes regime change by force," foreign ministry spokesman Liu Weimin told reporters in Beijing.

"We believe that a review now by the Security Council of any new measures on the situation would be premature," Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov told the Interfax news agency in comments that appeared to dash Washington's hopes of a change of heart in Moscow.
