because Republicans do not "apologize" for their "success." They don't advocate helping the poor. Whereas John Edwards did, so somehow that makes it inconsistent to Republicans that he had a big house and expensive haircuts. They truly believe we are communists, so I guess that means we have to dress Mao style and live like the poor.

..since Bain Capital took over Touch Of Gray.

Actually, I think his business suits make that haircut look like a bargain. I bet his custom made suits have his own name on the label.

The guy who cuts his hair is paid a salary by a corporation owned by an LLC which is owned by a Bahamian trust.

The Bahamian trust also owns an insurance company and a bank. Mitt's hair is actually insured against growing, so he collects on a regular basis, which the insurance company counts as a loss against the five dollar a year deferred premium on his policy.
