Really? Did he scale it back to just 28,000 sq. ft?

Meanwhile, Edwards says that even though he has a personal relationship with God, he rejects the notion that the U.S. is a Christian nation. Edwards tells the Web site belief.net: "I guess the word 'Christian' is what bothers me, even though I'm a Christian. I think that America is a nation of faith."

But the candidate doesn't believe Americans are doing a good job of living like Jesus. Edwards — who has drawn fire from some for his new $6 million, 28,000 square-foot mansion in North Carolina — says, "I think that Jesus would be disappointed in our ignoring the plight of those around us who are suffering and our focus on our own selfish short-term needs. I think he would be appalled, actually."

"The 28,000 square foot mansion was his wife's idea, not his."

He was either in complete agreement with her or he has demonstrated that he is not fit to be President if he can't even control the spending of his own wife.

How do you know this? If there is one candidate running that I know will say anything to get elected, it is John Edwards.

It is highly unusual for a woman to want such a large home. Men love to build shrines for themselves, and I think this project smells of a man with an ego out of control...

The 28,000 square foot mansion was his wife's idea, not his.
