Open Letter to Dallas Lawyer Fred Baron

By DemocracyRules

Dear Mr. Baron:

Here is a news piece that I call your attention to:

"Edwards former finance chairman, Dallas lawyer Fred Baron, told The Dallas Morning News that he made "regular payments" to Hunter, the paper reported.

"The money was purely and simply to get them out of North Carolina and to get them into a stable place," he said of Hunter and former Edwards aide Andrew Young, who claimed paternity of Hunter's child.

"I decided independently to help two friends and former colleagues rebuild their lives when harassment by supermarket tabloids made it impossible for them to conduct a normal life," Baron said in a statement to the Raleigh (N.C.) News and Observer.

"John Edwards was not aware that assistance was provided to anyone involved in this matter," Baron said. "I did it of my own volition and without the knowledge, instruction, or suggestion of John Edwards or anyone else. The assistance was offered and accepted without condition."

~~~~   ~~~~

I am touched and moved by your generosity.  I especially like the part about "The assistance was offered and accepted without condition."  Accordingly, I would like to request the same generosity from you.  Henceforward, I would like you to rent me an enormous house and pay my living expenses in perpetuity.  I can assure you that the assistance you offer will be accepted without condition.

Please leave your contact information in the comments sections here at Gina Cobb.  I will forward you the details of what kind of house and monthly support payments I require.  I will also give you bank transfer numbers as appropriate.

Sincerely, and with kind regards,
DemocracyRules
