Post your proof Kerry ever said he paid $150 for a haircut. I'm calling you out to back up your BS. And when you find Kerry never said that I expect an apology to the thread for lying.

I remember clearly Drudge making up that BS simply by doubling what Kerry's haircut actually cost in order to make him look like an elitist lady instead of just a well-groomed clasy man. I don't know about you, but $75 is not unreasonable for a public figure's haircut. And if GW Bush had to pay for his haircuts he'd be paying that kind of money too. Cheney doesn't have any hair so he gets a pass.

This whole matter is a typical example of a Rovian dirty trick. Using Drudge, Rove was able to put out these phony little stories (Botox, hates Iowa, $150 haircut, etc.) and make them "fact" in the public consciousness. They also tried the Kerry intern story, but the girl and her parents came out and called the Bushies a bunch of slimeball liars. Apparently, Bushies were unable to pay off the girl to lie this time, as they did with Paula Jones and others in the 90's.

Here's your proof: Drudge Changes $150 to $75, Admits he Lied.

Notice how the RNC lie machine works, with Drudge or Limbaugh starting the lie then spreading it. But in this case they were shown evidence they lied so they recanted. Usually they don't.
