“The Brain Behind McCain”
Highly placed sources have revealed to PolitiPorn.com that McCain’s main campaign strategy guy (pictured above) is a known skinhead.
No, no, no we’re not talking skinhead in the white power, Aryan Nation mold. We’ve learned that the man under the chrome dome, Steve Schmidt, is bald. That’s right, you heard it here first, McCain’s Brain is rockin’ the Skullet!
The bald look has been popularized in the past 20 or so years by some of our greatest athletes who feared the retreat of their hairlines. You’ve got half the NBA and most notably former greats, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Charles Barkely, Air Jordan, etc. However, popular consensus is that this look doesn’t do so well on white guys. Maybe with the exception of Patrick Stewart of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
But what does this say about McCain’s Brain, that he’s willing to shave it down to the skin and shine up the old cue ball? What I see is a guy who has surrendered and thrown in the towel. He’s raised the white flag on his hair line. Instead of staying the course and combing it over like Johnny Mac or perhaps buying some Rogaine and planning a follicle surge strategy, Schmidt has adopted a hair exit strategy and surrender to his genetic deficiency. Can we trust a man who’s top strategist employs no strategy to overcome his hair loss? Can we expect leadership from a guy, who’s only answer for hair loss is to CUT & Run?
I don’t think so.
Now that’s funny!
@The Fallen – I thought you could appreciate that story (so can I by the way!). Thanks!
“Maybe with the exception of Patrick Stewart of Star Trek: The Next Generation.”
You keep your mits off Captain Jean Luc Picard!
Yeah, I had to give up on my receding hairline last October.
@The Fallen – I knew you were secretly a Surrendercrat! Using the old “Cut and Run” strategy.
Not me, I’m holding on to the couple strands of hair I have left, by God! Who knows, in a couple of years, I’ll be headed over the Dr. Bosley Clinic to employ my hair restoration surge strategy.
@Hayden – I would never offend Jean Luc, er Capt. Picard. Huge fan here. Set a course for the Centari Nebula, Engage!
Dear College Lawyer Type; If you look closely you can also see the scar where in his forehead where he (apparently) used to have a red ruby embeded.
What’s that all about?
Now for a true life story that took place in my home just last weekend.
I am fortunate enought that my bald spot is in the back of my head. Since I don’t see it, it’s like it doesn’t realluy exist… at least to me.
About two weeks ago I went down to the barber shop and ended up with a “bur cut”. You know, put the #2 guard on the clippers and go round and round on your head until there are just little nubs of hair left.
Well, on Saturday the Mrs. decides to give little Porter (4 years old) a hair cut like daddy.
So she put the #2 guard on t he clippers and went round and round his little head until he too only had little nubs of hair left.
After she was finished she said, “See, now you have a hair cut just like daddy’s.” He reached up with his little hand to feel the back of his head and said’ “Uh uhh, I don’ have a hole in mine.”
ROFL, kids say the most honest things!
@MSSC54 – LOL!!! Porter (no doubt named after Porter Wagner) sound like a very observant little guy.
@MSSC54 – I use a number one guard on my dome. I do not have any holes though.
Dear College Boy Lawyer Type;
Never thought of who Porter is named after.
We are actually adopting him and his six year old sister from their abusive (to each other), drunken, drug addicted mother and father.
The grandparents said to put them in Foster Care of the orphanage they “couldn’t” take them. That’s when the parents asked us to take them (temporarely). That was in May of 06.
Since bio mom/dad never did pass a drug test, we decided to make our “new kids” a permanent part of the family.
I will be 72 when little Porter graduates high school! lol
@MSSC54 – truthfully, Porter Wagner was the only famous “Porter” I could think of off the cuff. I remember my grandmother (who raised me) making me watch his country music show on TV. I just remember it being boring and not as entertaining as Hee Haw.
That a very commendable thing that you’re doing and I say that with all sincerity. Having my grandmother raise me gave me a great perspective on the world. Instead of reading about the Great Depression or the rationing during WWII, I got to hear first hand accounts of how everyday people were affected by it.
Even more special was having a grandma who had grown up in Washington, DC. She’d tell me stories about how her father dragged out to see Lindbergh when the city throw a parade in his honor.
With that in mind, imagine the perspective that Porter will have on the Vietnam War and the turbulent 60’s.
Yep, that’s a great thing you’re doing. God bless you for it.
