Nice try, but you're wrong... edwards actually made such an absurd and sorry comment on Sunday, June 3... meanwhile, john edwards himself is nothing more than a bumper stick, it it any wonder that he actually used that phrase?

Here in his own words:

"John Edwards provided the most memorable moment of the evening, summing up nearly six years of liberal thought with a single paragraph. "[W]hat this global war on terror bumper sticker -- political slogan, that's all it is, it's all it's ever been -- was intended to do was for George Bush to use it to justify everything he does: the ongoing war in Iraq, Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, spying on Americans, torture. None of those things are OK. They are not the United States of America.

Of course, Edwards' aphoristic denunciation is itself paradigmatic bumper-sticker politics. His strategy is sloganeering. And sadly enough, his pithy shallowness mirrors the Democratic base far more than Clinton's newfound moderation or Obama's faux-profundity. If everyone who slaps a "War Is Not The Answer" sticker on their Prius votes for Edwards, the charlatan from North Carolina could breeze to the Democratic nomination."

Here in his own blog, his supporters are actually praising him for his ridiculous comment:
