Those pricey snips have undercut Edwards’ image as a populist crusading for the little guy.

I guess the palace he lives in can be overlooked the. It was the haircut that outed him as being full of crap.

Now I understand.

Yes, he did.
Ergo: Edwards is a LIAR.

He got two haircuts ar the same price, and he billed the campaign. How do you do it twice and not know how much money is spent?

Is this a legitimate charge to the campaign? Wouldn’t he be getting his hair cut even if he was not running for office???

There really are 2 Americas, and Edwards and his wife are at the top of the heap on the side where most of us will never live.

If he wanted to make points with the average voter why didn’t the goof just walk into Joe’s Clip Joint, pull up a chair and wait his turn in the barber chair. Now that would have been at $15 job, including tip, and given him tons of great PR but being the elitist that he is never passed his mind.

What a phony. The only thing he’s embarrassed about is that it was all over the news.

No one should have to pay for an embarrassing haircut.

I wonder if this is the same Hollywood hair stylist Bubba used the time he held Air Force One on the tarmac at LAX so he could have his hair cut. This disrupted airport activities causing flight delays. What is it about ‘Rats and their hair?

He can stop by our house the next time he’s in town. I’ve been cutting hair in our kitchen for eons, and it doesn’t cost more than listening to me say, “sit still” or the occasional rap on the side of the head with the shears. I’m giving him a pass from any wise cracks because of Elizabeth (after all, she has to put up with him). That’s penance enough.

Hey, the money’s not coming out of his pocket. (That’s the explanation I rec’d from one politician when I questioned an outrageous expense like Edwards’.)

And politicians wonder why people don’t want to donate to campaigns.

Indeed!

A decent haircut should never cost more than $200!

That's the only reason he was found out - he had to disclose the haircuts on his FEC reports. If he had just whipped out a personal credit or debit card to pay for the cuts, no one would have been the wiser. This guy's made countless millions of dollars chasing ambulances, and he's too friggin' cheap to pay for his own haircuts! Not only that, he's so stupid and out of touch that he had no clue how bad paying 800 bucks for haircuts would look.

He probably figured the media would bury it and make it go away. And they probably would have, except that some low-level researcher at Hillary's campaign probably dug it up looking over his FEC filings for just this kind of embarrassing info, sent it up the chain, and Hillary's high command gave it to them with orders to put it on the front page.

I am embarrassed that we have people in this country that not only vote for Edwards/dem but also thinks he/they are genuine.
