Why do Repukes all have the same weird haircut style?

[DianeG5385]

What's that all about? They all look like they're wearing hair helmets. The fundamentalist preacher class uses the same style.

[Pam-Moby]

1. They all go to the same barber....they are cheap-HAHAH

[d_b]

2. Because they are not of this planet.

Pod creatures with monolith haircuts!




Also known as the "Buckley"





I think there's a Right-wing barber in some dungeon on capitol hill who dishes these fuggin haircuts out.

[Lefty48197]

19. "Part hair on the left" - From the Father knows best handbook

I think you were considered a communist if you "parted" on the wrong side in the '50's. Today, parting on the left must be code for "Birch Society, sssshhhhhhh".

[Bouncy Ball]

38. Ok I'm not one normally given

to critiques of peoples' looks, but DAMN those two are painful on the eyes.

Especially the guy on the top.

[Atman]

3. Petroleum-based

Gotta be. Pomade, maybe. Same toupee maker? Trent Lott, Bill Frist, Delay...hmm, you're right...they all have hair welded to their steal skull caps.

[gorbal]

9. Spikey?

Do you mean the spikey "cell phone saleman" haircuts?

[Mabus]

4. Those are helmets

not haircuts.

[tk2kewl]

5. Flowbee!

[SpiralHawk]

20. No no No - not the Flowbee !

It will instigate a wave of nasty flashbacks.

Eeeeeeahhhhhhh ! Flowbee....

[tk2kewl]

21. did you get flowbee cuts as a kid?

:shrug:

[tk2kewl]

30. I think the comb-over is necessary

to cover the mark of the Antichrist

[bobweaver]

6. ...and the same pasty-white skin, the same tacky neckties, the fat bellies

[whalerider55]

7. the jimmy swaggert look.

but well you might ask... why do they all wear pink g-strings and nylons under their well-pressed trousers?
and i say unto you-- personal preference. some of them wear blue g-strings.

8. How about.....

Mullets? They're popular with the redneck RW crowd.

[stepnw1f]

10. Thank You....

What is it with the "Leave it To Beaver" dweebie look?

These people realy creep me out.

The men and women with a mission..... it's uniform!

:silly:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. Because all of them are droids.

The Rethuglican droid factory has only one basic model, with the same hair, paunch, and vacant stare, which they install on their Republican Politician model. The same factory also makes fundie preacher and sex offender droids, using the same parts.

[mr_hat]

12. It's code.

[DianeG5385]

26. Yes it is sir

I'm in complete agreement with that. Their "look" means something to the faithful!

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

13. They won't let gay guys touch them...thus the hair helmet look. nt

[DU9598]

22. Good one

You are probably closest to the truth. Either that, or their wives cut their hair to save a few bucks.

[Jesus H. Christ]

14. Why are college repubs always engineer majors?

And always wearing shorts and baseball caps?

[Mr_Spock]

17. Hey!

Cut it with the engineeeeer jokes Heysus. Jesus H. Christ!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. When I was in college (during the Pleistocene Era),

the Young Republicans were mostly poli sci majors. Most dweebishly, they wore suits to class and carried briefcases.

[DianeG5385]

28. When I was in college, there were no obvious pukes

except the Jews for Jesus crowd on the mall at UCLA who inflamed us normal thinking people into actually engaing them in rational conversation!

[stanwyck]

31. Gasp! We must be the same age

cause the forlorn little men who were Republicans during my college years were the same. Plus, a few engineers. We were all in jeans and flannel shirts. They stood out.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

32. This was during the Vietnam years. After Nixon was elected

we figured the Young Republicans were deliberately trying to look like him (remember the photo of Nixon walking along a beach wearing a suit and wing-tips?).

[stanwyck]

33. actually, I do remember

that photo. That was a man very uncomfortable in his skin. Bizarre. Even my Dad didn't wear wingtips on the beach. What a contrast Nixon was to the effortlessly cool Jack Kennedy. Difficult to believe Nixon was ever president. But, then, it's difficult to believe GWB is president, also.

[Dulcinea]

37. They were business, accounting or finance majors in my day.

The 80s..."greed is good."

The more things change, the more they stay the same, huh?


Dulcinea
Class of '87

[Be Brave]

15. And why do the repug officials have the same accent? n/t

[Boswells_Johnson]

16. Good point! Here's the leader of Canada's Conservative (repuke) party

[AlCzervik]

23. Pod people eom

[iconoclastic cat]

24. Oh, I thought you meant the other one:

[corbett]

25. Individuality Is Fine As Long As We All Do It Together

Oral Roberts is so very proud!

[NuttyFluffers]

27. it's the 'sport' cut.

straight out of posh, preppy childhood. belongs on sailing regattas, polo games, and croquet on the lawn (and if born without a silverspoon in the mouth, the 'dreams' of such wasp-y things). and they never grew out of the haircut, they never experimented as they got older, which explains a lot. it blends into the 'distant, authoritarian father' and 'carping, prude mother' archetypes that they feel most comfortable with. the world scares them, they want to go back into the womb and run away from the world if they can. the next best thing is to recreate their idealized childhood as best they can, which means "moral values," isolation and marginalization of all that is different (minorities, poor, etc), and petulant illusions of grandeur with tantrums when they don't get their way. it explains why they behave like l'infant terrible. they need a darn good spanking to set them straight.

[ObaMania]

29. Not only that...

.. they all have that squeaky-clean look with an almost fake "got GOD in my life" smile that's always there (even when they are pissed), not to mention the crazed, zombified gaze coming from their black eyes. Man, I'm creeping myself out. :scared:

[0007]

34. You mean like Benny Hind, Trent Lott, and rest of the cretins?

[DemGirl7]

43. well, Trent Lott's hair is a wig...according to me and my mom

n/t

[dutchdoctor]

35. They're made of Lego..

at least that's what's rumored about the dutch Prime Minister

[Southpaw Bookworm]

36. Televangelist Hair

Remember the old Bloom County strips where Bill the Cat was transformed into "Fundamentally Oral Bill"?

[ChairOne]

39. I think it's based on the old 50s Leave-It-To-Beaver style...

... That time period is pretty close to perfection for white folks after all.... before Elvis came out, before niggers started (successfully) gettin uppity... before an idiotic and failed war in Vietnam.... Booming after WWII.... When the "clean cut" look would make you the apple of your mother's eye...

So yah - I think it's all about hearkening back to the good ol days.

[buddysmellgood]

40. They buy them in bulk and spread them around. Republicans have

Universal Haircut Coverage. You see, it's okay to have something for everyone, so long as they are republican.

[MsConduct]

41. Because they've all been cloned? n/t

[riverwalker]

42. "I'm a good boy" hair

is what I call it. Started in the sixties. During the war protests, your hair was like a signal to where you stood. Some, like my ex, would wear their hair deliberately short and trim to show their daddies what a good boy they were. "See Daddy, I would never be one of them hippies, I'm a GOOD BOY". It still kind of serves the same purpose for the repugs who clammor for daddy's (in the form of any authority figure) approval. It's like a Hair Club now, a secret handshake.
