Hair, Sex, and Politics

A good head of hair is a basic requirement for holding political office today. Some 75% of men lose their hair as they age, but the last time we had a bald president was over half a century ago. It's no coincidence that as TV came onto the American scene, being an old bald politician went out of style. Ike, a.k.a President Eisenhower, may very well be the last badass bald guy that gets to be president. But why is this? Are we really that shallow as a nation?

The Holohoax?

In light of the recent death of James von Brunn (shooter at holocaust museum this summer), I decided to do some research on some of the 'evidence' holocaust deniers claim disproves the holocaust occurred. Originally skeptical, I was quickly gripped by several reasonable lines of thought. I do not claim the holocaust never happened, but isn't it just a little too convenient that the Jews got Israel right after the War? Is it not also convenient that Jews are receiving payments from the German government to this day?
