The more beautiful a politician's hair...the more likely they are to be full of crap.


I wish I had thought of that. Plenty of examples out there but one really stands out. Sarah Palin? Yeah, but that's a "given." Sometimes I think this country is just doomed. So many millions of people without health care coverage...and politicians play politics instead of solving the problem.


Link- from Crooks and Liars--

All this talk about socialized healthcare! Michael Steele says it's socialism, although he admits he doesn't know a thing about the actual policy.

And as Rachel Maddow points out, have you ever noticed that the more beautiful a politican's hair, the more likely he is to be completely full of crap? Case in point: Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Maddow really lets him have it because Perry is talking about "seceding" from any national healthcare plan, reminding him (and us) that he's been governor for nine years. As she points out, one in four Texans lack health insurance, giving Texas the title for highest number of uninsured citizens in the entire country.

As Washington Spectator editor and political author Lou Dubose pointed out to Maddow, the Texas governorship is "a ribbon-cutting position." Good thing, because he's not too bright, is he?
