8. For me, this is not an attack on Edwards. Instead, this is a glimpse
into the political world which includes frequent appearances on TV. Can you imagine if Edwards or any other politician went on TV and their hair was sticking out all over the place? They'd be the laughing stock of all the nightly comedy shows.

It also reminds me of the beginning of Fahrendheit 9/11 when they showed Bush and all his cabinet getting their hair done before TV appearances.

To me, politicians have much in common with any other celebrity. The difference is that they're held to a much higher standard, where they have to hide the fact that they do really need to make sure they look good before a TV appearance.


P.S. -- Love the song "I feel pretty". Once in a great while the Right Wing bring their sense of humor with them. This is one of those times. This is a documentary representing ALL politicians who are, in fact, TV stars.
