John Edwards and the hair thing
Thanks to the Washington Post and Drudge, John Edwards' hair is back in the news. According to his hairdresser, if you throw in the airfare and other expenses, Edwards has spent more than a $1200 for a hair cut.
Let's see. That's about 100 times the price of a clip job at Super Cuts. The rich are definitely different from me, even though -- according to John Edwards -- I'm rich!
Anyway, among many possible candidates I think this is the best line in the story:
The Beverly Hills hairstylist, a Democrat, said he hit it off with then-Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina at a meeting in Los Angeles that brought several fashion experts together to advise the candidate on his appearance.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is the first time that anybody from North Carolina has hosted a "meeting in Los Angeles that brought several fashion experts together" to advise on his appearance.

You know, I'd not want to risk being that clown for even one second, but dang his America is a properous one. $1200 for a haircut is a bit spicy, and let's face it, he's not that pretty.
If he's wants to appeal to the common man, he needs to be seen at the Friendly Barber in Carrboro, and let Russ give his doo a clip. Only queer men and rich folk pay hundreds for a haircut.
If he can't manage to be more intelligent with his cash, or his campaign cash, how in hell can we trust him to manage our Uncle's coin?
And BTW... I doubt the Friendly Barber'd cut his mangy doo, The Breck Girl being lefty and at risk of being sued for the cut and all.

Indeed there are "two Americas" -- the one that the Breck Girl lives in, and the one that the rest of us live in. Every day, he reminds me why I didn't vote Kerry/Edwards.

I do my fair share of expert witness work and encounter many ambulance-chaser lawyers. Every single one of them is "not right in the eyes", as the outlaw Josey Wales might say.

I mean, I don't like Edwards either, but have you checked yourself for signs of Edwards Derangement Syndrome lately? He's a phony, we get it, enough already...

Well, Phrizz11, I don't search around for stories that make John Edwards look ludicrous. They just keep popping up. There have been so many that it almost looks like a vast Obamawing conspiracy.
