http://www.cbsnews.com/news/cost-of-edwards-haircut-hits-1250/


Beverly Hills stylist Joseph Torrenueva tells the Washington Post that one of his haircuts for Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards cost $1,250 because Torrenueva had to fly to Atlanta and missed two days of work as a result.

"He has nice hair," Torrenueva told the newspaper. "I try to make the man handsome, strong, more mature and these are the things, as an expert, that's what we do."

7. Hillary has been through this many times. What is the obsession? Why aren't we hearing what Trump

spends on his hair, or any of the other GOP candidates?

2. They're scraping the bottom of the barrow for anything they can find/do. n/t

Don't let it get to you. I bet Hillary doesn't care :p

6. Stupid gossip. And you're spreading it. n/t

[bigdarryl]

9. I'm not spreading shit the media is and I'm reporting on it

I see negative shit on DU on Mrs.Hillary everyday coming from trolls and some Sanders supporters I mean WTF!!!

[demmiblue]

12. Yes, you are spreading it. Duh.

It is meaningless gossip with no confirmation.

[PoliticAverse]

8. I'd like to know how much Sanders paid for his haircut, cause I think

maybe he paid too much.

10. I can't get too upset about this because ...

... the anti-hypocrisy guidelines would then require me to refrain from making fun of Trump's doo, and I'm simply not prepared to give that up.

I do think its a good sign, though, that this is what they're spending their time on. Bodes well for HRC.

[TreasonousBastard]

11. I seem to remember something about Bill...

getting an expensive blow-dry and holding up the works.

Cheap shots are normal in a campaign.

Haircut Grounded Clinton While the Price Took Off
By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN,
Correction Appended

WASHINGTON, May 20— It may have been the most expensive haircut in history.

Two of Los Angeles International Airport's four runways were shut down for nearly an hour on Tuesday, some incoming flights were delayed and Air Force One sat on the tarmac with engines running -- all so that President Clinton's Beverly Hills hairstylist, Chistophe, could come aboard and give Mr. Clinton a high-price trim before he took off for Washington.

Questions about Mr. Clinton's runway razor cut dominated the White House news briefing today, with the communications director, George Stephanopoulos, scrambling to explain why the populist President tied up one of the country's busiest airports to have his hair trimmed. Everybody Does It

Federal Aviation Administration spokesmen were quoted by The Associated Press as saying that while Air Force One sat on the runway on an indefinite haircut hold, two of the airport's four runways were shut down and some commuter flights scheduled to land were forced to circle instead. The White House insisted, though, that the Secret Service had not sought any special hold on air traffic while the President was getting his locks shorn.

"Everybody has to get their hair cut," Mr. Stephanopoulos said. "I think the President normally gets his hair cut sometime during the week. It happens at different places. As you know, he has a very busy schedule, and he just tries to work it in when he can. That was when we were able to work it in."

And who paid for this haircut?

"The President and his family have a personal services contract with Cristophe to cover things like this," Mr. Stephanopoulos said. "They pay for it. It's for the whole family."

In light of Mr. Clinton's haircut by a stylist to Hollywood stars, Mr. Stephanopoulos was asked whether his boss was still the President of the common man.

"Absolutely," he answered. "And if you look at his economic package, it's a package that's designed to turn this around and to really get some real benefits to middle-class Americans. And that's what's important."

(edit, put an n in wasn't)

15. Who do they think she is?

John Edwards?

[BainsBane]

16. I can hook her up for $50

for a haircut with a good hairdresser in Minneapolis. She'll get every bit as good of a cut.

Of course the airfare to Minneapolis would probably bring it up to $600.

17. The Hill is rightwing hack world.

I see the author is Howie Kurtz's little girl Judy. Like father like daughter - both fell from the right wing nut tree.

[gollygee]

18. She's wealthy and in the public eye.

And the public has been horrible to her in the past about her hair. I'm sure she's careful with it now.

I sincerely doubt Mitt Romney went to Bo-Rics. Nor does Jeb Bush.
