The Strange, Delusional World of Rielle Hunter

Today's Oprah show showed the uber-popular talkshow host in a slightly different light. While interviewing John Edward's former mistress Rielle Hunter, Oprah was remarkably on-point, and unrelenting in her style of questioning. It wasn't hard to tell that she didn't buy much of what Hunter was saying... and she made no secret of that. Much to our amusement, Oprah didn't let the ex-mistress off the hook on any question.

Today is the first time Rielle Hunter has spoken out since the one-time presidential candidate admitted paternity to 3-year-old Frances. During the one-hour program, Hunter repeatedly (and ironically) talked about her commitment to a "life of truth." This stance didn't sit well with Oprah, and she continued to question Hunter about the contradiction. When the talkshow host was quizzing Hunter on why she went along with Edwards' denial of paternity, Winfrey sarcastically asked, "So why did you, Miss Spirituality and 'Alignment with the Truth,' go along with that?" Rielle responded by saying that it was "because of her daughter."

Another entertaining moment came towards the end of the program, when Oprah finally asked, "Do you think you hurt Elizabeth Edwards?" Rielle replies: "Elizabeth... Johnny... and every one in that family was hurt." But Oprah isn't having this, and she verbalizes it: "That was good, but you didn't answer my question ," Winfrey says, "Do you think you hurt Elizabeth Edwards."
"I don't know...," Hunter says, adding that one would need to ask Elizabeth herself that question. The statement is one of Hunter's repeated displays of arrogance and delusion during the interview.

Maybe one day this woman will come to understand that the rules do apply to her, and that it is fair for people to judge her based on her actions.

We'd say more, if only Oprah hadn't done such a great job of exposing this nutjob.
