Is John Edwards a Hypocrite?

The Cafferty File, part of The Situation Room on CNN, poses a question every hour The Situation Room is on. This is today's 4:00 question, and Thoughts on the World's response.

John Edwards says he worked for a hedge fund primarily to learn more about financial markets and their relationship to poverty. Do you see any contradiction there?

Sure; maybe it is a contradiction, but you’re missing the point. The reason he worked for a hedge fund wasn’t PRIMARILY to learn more about their relationships with poverty, it was to make money.
