What would Jesus think? Ask John Edwards
"I think that Jesus would be disappointed in our ignoring the plight of those around us who are suffering and our focus on our own selfish short-term needs," Edwards told the site. "I think he would be appalled, actually." John Edwards

Edwards thinks these deep thoughts as he lounges in his 2,800-square-foot beach house (latest tax value $2,649,317) on exclusive and gated Figure Eight Island near Wilmington. Here's the beach house, which, by the way, the "suffering" poor cannot get near, thanks to the guard and the gate that keep the hoi polloi off the entire island.

And he also gives these issues great thought as he lounges in, well, John's Lounge, in his 28,000-square-foot home in Orange County near Chapel Hill.
