  Some words to go along with the picture: The Devil And John Edwards. A small excerpt:
  

  O, how the Devil is a liar, a fraud, a misshapen freak in a suit. The reason that people believe the Devil is that he speaks his lies with low, soothing voice of one who is telling the truth. And with the conviction that his lies are reality. Many of the lies have already been dealt with [..]

  Instead, let's deal with this bright, shiny lie: that El Salvador was a beacon of democracy that the Devil adored back during the Reagan adminstration. The Reagan-backed Jose Napoleon Duarte was "elected" in 1984 after years of left-wing guerilla action and right-wing government-backed death squads killed tens of thousands of people. The United States provided El Salvador with the largest Air Force in Central America, which in the first quarter of 1985, made more than a hundred bomb attacks of civilian opposition areas. Thousands were killed and hundreds of thousands were turned into refugees. One can be sure that the vast majority of those people didn't give a happy rat's ass about democracy. But the Devil was there, he assured us last night, the Devil was there to make sure it happened just the way it did. Goddamn, how those souls must have felt like fresh air being inhaled by the Devil. And, motherfuck, if he doesn't tell us he's gonna do the same in Iraq.
