John Edwards Gives To Charity

John Edwards was in a quandary. For months he had been bashing Rupert Murdoch and News Corp. with the same zeal that Michael Moore uses to attack the last raspberry filled Krispy Kreme at the dessert table.

Then, when questioned about a comfy book deal including a $500,000 advance that he signed with Murdoch's own HarperCollins, he responded that "every dime" of the money went to charity.

But, what of the $300,000 book expense budget also included in the deal?

It appears that those particular dimes might be considered off budget.
