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."

Vote for what's on top of our heads. Not for what's inside...

What's not satire is Kerry saying today "...and we have better hair."

I heard it and couldn't believe he said it!

The original comment (the one hyperlinked in the "article" above) is real, the rest is the product of a deranged imagination.

Now that Kerry cut I did hear on the snooze at the top of the hour. But the Presidents response to the reporter about Cheney? We won't hear that.

Oh that quote was ALL over the radio and on TV already........CHENEY COULD BE PRESIDENT.

At first it was simply quoted as stated.....but then the spinning began.

Nothing can change the truth, however.

You can make fun of their hair, but I spoke to a Democrat who thinks it's a good ticket. Some people fall for looks, and they think Edwards is good-looking.

I'm undecided whether Bush can win, even though I want him to. 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.

"...and we've got better hair" brained tax schemes.

Maybe they just cut him off. ;)

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

Oh, good news, but I on the other post I said that it won't make the evening news. But I won't be watching, so I'll never know..... Thanks for the update.
