Good answer to a bad question.

Was looking around online to read more about John Edwards. I found the interview he and Elizabeth did for 60 Minutes last night (Katie Couric?). It is the worst interview I may ever have seen/read/heard. It goes like this:

Q: You have cancer! That's scary!

A: Yes... it's hard.

Q: You could die!

A: Um. Actually, I will. Rather like everyone else.

Q: And you-- you're still going to run for President!

A: Yes.

Q: Your wife has cancer! That's scary!

A: Yes. It's hard.

Q: "Some say" that's a bad idea.

A: Some people are scared of cancer.

I cannot imagine why some might be scared of public figures with cancer doing important things. Thanks for the insight, Katie.

I liked this bit:
Katie: [Some might say y]ou're putting your work first, and your family second.

John Edwards:
But this is not work. Work is what I did as a lawyer. This is service.
