Brian:
I don’t understand your script since as far as I can tell you are copying and pasting a text over itself.
If you want to add text to a TE document, just add the text!
Pardon me if I did not understand your question, but this does what you want:
<script>
tell application "TextEdit" to tell document 1 to set its text to (its text) & return & nutext
</script>
Where nutext contains the text you want to add.
