Kerry, Edwards Tout Hair-Based Platform
No News Network (NNN) | 2004-07-07 | self

CLEVELAND (NNN) -- Following up previous comments where presumptive Democrat nominee John Kerry (D-MA) stated about himself and newly-chosen running mate John Edwards (D-NC), "we've got better vision, better ideas, real plans, we've got a better sense of what's happening to America and we've got better hair," Kerry and Edwards joined together to discuss their opinion that superior hair would have prevented the 9/11 terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington D.C.

"George Bush has mediocre hair," began Edwards, "and Dick Cheney hardly even has hair. It's obvious that John Kerry and I hold a significant hair advantage in this race."

Kerry followed up with the central argument of the Kerry/Edwards hair-based platform. "We all know that the hair makes the man... good hair projects an image of leadership and unwavering cowering to the will of the United Nations. With that kind of leadership -- leadership obviously lacking in the Bush regime -- terrorists would never have dared strike the United States."

When reminded that good-haired Bill Clinton's administration was also a target of terrorist attacks, including attacks on US soil, Edwards replied that "while President Clinton had very nice hair, Al Gore's hair was, to put it bluntly, a total disaster."

"Fake," added Kerry. "And fake is something the Kerry/Edwards ticket knows better than anyone."

He's coming to a university near me on Friday, and my county Republican committee said she only got 25 tickets to hand out. I wanted to go, but even the local newspaper says they don't have info as to how to get a ticket.

That might be a good sign -- if tickets are that hard to come by, the event must be very popular, no?

I read this article on Reuters today. It was written by Patricia Wilson.

Yes, the quote from Wilson's article (linked above) inspired me to write this piece.

NO, IMO, they haven't been distributed. Unless, they are going to local politicians. No one on the FR PA board has received one of these tickets.

You call your local republican office and ask if there are any tickets left, I was offered some for the York rally but I would have to take off from work.

On a serious note, would you trust a man who spends more on his hair than his wife does, or the man who goes to the barber for a $15 college cut and does no more than wash and comb it in the morning? The former needs to consider his priorities.

Thanks for the kind review... it's been a while since I had "the muse" to write a satire piece, but this one just kind of wrote itself.
