rielle hunter comes across at pretty sharp, not some starry-eyed bimbo.ks about how edwards is integrated and living a life of truth and has grown in awareness and humility and she doesn't seem terribly sympathetic towards the cancer-stricken elizabeth. but it's clear that hunter has shared many confidences with the former senator. she said she spoke to him all night from the hospital after the baby was born. and their relationship seems to be quite current. >> what most people will remember from this episode is gq's specialty, a sexy photo spread. but there were words too, that any fair journalistic appraisal of rielle hunter should take into account. now, before we go, jon stewart had a thought. he was channelling glenn beck of fox news. here's a little bit of that. >> it's not that believing, i'm not saying this, i'm not saying that believing there should be a minimum standard for how much lead can be in our paint might lead to the government having the right to sterilize and kill jews. i'm not saying that that might be the case. >> well, you know, you
