The morning after the Feb. 3 primaries, which vaulted Kerry into a virtual-ly insurmountable lead, the candidate was fuming over his missing hairbrush. He and his aides were riding in a van on the way to a Time magazine cover-photo shoot. Nicholson had left the hairbrush behind. "Sir, I don't have it," he said, after rummaging in the bags. "Marvin, f---!" Kerry said. The press secretary, David Wade, offered his brush. "I'm not using Wade's brush," the long-faced senator pouted. "Marvin, f---, it's my Time photo shoot."
Nicholson was having a bad day. Breakfast had been late and rushed and not quite right for the senator. In the van, Kerry was working his cell phone and heard the beep signaling that the phone was running out of juice. "Marvin, charger," he said without turning around. "Sorry, I don't have it," said Nicholson, who was sitting in the rear of the van. Now Kerry turned around. "I'm running this campaign myself," he said, looking at Nicholson and the other aides. "I get myself breakfast. I get myself hairbrushes. I get myself my cell-phone charger. It's pretty amazing." In silent frustration, Nicholson helplessly punched the car seat.

"Mary, help!"
Heinz estate was ordered opened by a Judge on Wednesday.
Anybody know if it ever was?
Surely Americans will grow tired of being played for fools . . . I've never seen the media cover up for a major candidate at this level before. It's beyond ridiculous.
"Horsehair horsebrush for the horseface?"
No, for the horse's rear
Oh where is my hairbursh,oh where is my hairbrush...
What a yancy-f***.
"I will not have those who do not have their hair so finely combed question my patriotism!"
Kerry: "Ahh, but the hairbrush...that's where I had them..."
Run this article a week before the election and you would have been able to argue that the media was worth 5-15 points....for Bush.
"Are you not aware that I get farty and bloated with a foamy latte?"
wonder if I can get the hairbrush holding job at the Nantucket mansion....tough work, but I am willing to do it!!!
AS for me, if I had the job of kerrys "personal aid" it would take 1 second into his first tantrum before I lodged a hairbrush up his wide behind!
Heh...that was my first thought on seeing this thread title.
And now it's COMPLETELY stuck in my head. VeggieTales songs are evil that way...
Typical of John "F...!" Kerry
Remember, Hillary is no better.
I can't say that I've ever dropped the f-bomb for missing my brush.
As a matter of fact, I can't say that I've ever directed that word at anyone. Not even as a teenager. My parents taught me to control my anger. You shouldn't treat people like that---and John Kerry always has.
Noooooo!
Now that song will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. LOL
Just like in 1988, I remember on Election Night Sam Donaldson stating that Dukakis would go back to MA to deal with fiscal problems. Fiscal problems in MA? The first we'd ever heard of them.
What an absolutely perfect description.
That was my first thought, but my understanding is that Newsweek was given full access to both campaigns -- on the condition that they could not report any of these minute details until after Election Day.
