August 18, 2007 -- "Embarrassed presidential hopeful John Edwards promised yesterday to take millions of dollars of his own fortune out of a hedge fund tied to subprime lenders who foreclosed on victims of Hurricane Katrina.
The populist (?) candidate - who has denounced such lenders - invested $16 million of his $30 million in assets in Fortress Investment Group. The Wall Street Journal reported that 34 New Orleans homeowners struggling to overcome Katrina's aftermath faced foreclosure suits from subprime-lending units of Fortress."
Sure. I believe that Edwards didn't know what was in his portfolio. Man who spends that much time fussing with his hair is bound to miss a few million investments here and there.
GOTCHA. You thieving little disingenuous twerp.
