Mrs Edwards Misses the Point

The wife of the most gorgeous of the Presidential candidates shares her wisdom:

"Elizabeth Edwards said Saturday she is troubled by the suspected anti-gay beating death of a Sacramento man, and said the killing of Satender Singh demands renewed condemnations of hate speech in America.

Singh, a 26-year-old Fijian immigrant, died four days after he was attacked July 1 at Lake Natoma by an angry group hurling explicit gay slurs and racial remarks.

Edwards, campaigning in Sacramento for her husband, Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards of North Carolina, said she was so affected by news of Singh's death that she rewrote a speech on human rights she was due to deliver later Saturday in San Francisco.

I kinda thought that all violence against others should be vigorously condemned but Mrs E. seems to think that condemning a particular kind of speech is the top priority.
