HAHAHAH BLAGODICKS

Important Psychologists Help Newspaper Guy Write Lame Article Before Deadline

Do you see that, friends, do you see what the Chicago Sun-Times is writing about Blagodicks’ hair? This is like a bad version of 9/11 — the psychologists (the intelligence community) could tell from his sexy hair (the intelligence) that he would be comically corrupt (fly into two tall buildings). When will clinical psychologist Scott Ambers (George Tenet) apologize for not warning Illinois (America) about Rod Blagojevich’s hair?

If you’re going to be a little sad crybaby, whatever, just never go to Scott Ambers:

Gov. Blagojevich’s glossy locks — perfectly sculpted in rain or snow — may be an indication of a sickness beneath his scalp, said one local psychologist.

“It’s all part of managing his image, managing his image of being without a blemish, without a flaw,” said Scott Ambers, who has practiced clinical psychology in the city for more than two decades.

Several psychologists interviewed one day after the governor’s arrest agreed that he might be suffering from an affliction known as narcissistic personality disorder.

“This grandiose sense of self . . . doesn’t carry the implication that [Blagojevich] is a raving lunatic, crazy and out of touch with reality, but it does suggest he has a really overinflated view of his own importance,” Ambers said.

And never forget.

    this is NOT from the Onion? Holy crap.

    FRAUD DID WTC

  3. Hedley Lamar says at 4:56 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Or, he could just be a douche bag.

  4. V572625694 says at 4:57 pm, December 11th, 2008

    That’s about as valid as Bill Frist diagnosing Terry Schiavo from a video.

  5. 4tehlulz says at 4:58 pm, December 11th, 2008

    I meant Freud, but the two are synonymous, really.

  6. Well, the exact same relationship (beautiful hair => narcissistic personality) applies to John Edwards. Two makes a trend, right?

  7. cricket feldstein says at 4:58 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Umm, I’m not a psychologist and I could have told you that there was something
    wrong with him based on his enormous fluffy head pelt. I mean, come on.

    INSANITY DEFENSE IS MADE.
    Boo ya.
    Now all he has to do is parachute himself into a mental facility and voila!
    FREE MAN.

  9. magic titty says at 4:59 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Narcissism is a *disorder*? Whatever…

    Psychologists do know they’re unwavering frauds, right?

  10. qwerty42 says at 4:59 pm, December 11th, 2008

    crap. we need to get back to stories about angry leftists.

  11. cricket feldstein says at 5:00 pm, December 11th, 2008

    That’s his hair? I thought he had a beaver sitting on his head.

  12. “a sickness beneath his scalp”

    And no amount of Head and Shoulders can scrub it away.

  13. Vanity Smurf says at 5:01 pm, December 11th, 2008

    jagorev: Gavin Newsom too.

  14. Noodle Salad says at 5:01 pm, December 11th, 2008

    really overinflated view of his own importance.

    Oh, DO go on, Mr. Ambers.

  15. DeLand DeLakes says at 5:01 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Give the man some respect. How difficult must it be to maintain a narcissistic personality disorder when you’ve got a fact as ugly as Mary Cheney’s ass?

  16. My glorious chesnut mane is a sign that I can’t afford a haircut.

    Maybe that’s why he was trying to sell the senate seat?

  17. 4tehlulz says at 5:03 pm, December 11th, 2008

    jagorev: And Mittens, too!

  18. “Gov. Blagojevich’s glossy locks — perfectly sculpted in rain or snow — may be an indication of a sickness beneath his scalp, said one local psychologist.”

    I was disappointed when he got to the psychologist part. I was hoping for a description of some horrible scalp disease like that disease where your tongue grows little rods all over it.

    Because that certainly is what it LOOKS like.

  19. Well, now he can get back to work on his Jew-detector.

  20. How come we’re not talkin’ about Mrs. Blaggy yet? Everybody else is. I’ve been waiting politely. She is one classy dame.

  21. Canmon (the Inadequate) says at 5:10 pm, December 11th, 2008

    The founding fathers all wore elaborate powdered wigs. They were so narcissistic they thought they could start their own country and parachute themselves into prominent positions.

    shortsshortsshorts:
    Don’t him, it’s the hair talking.

    shortsshortsshorts:
    Don’t blame him, it’s the hair talking.

    The latest hit from Mos Def, Immortal Technique and Eminem:

    Gov Blag didn’t sell off the Senate
    Tell the truth, toupe, it was you, toupe
    His hair knocked off the seat
    Tell the truth, toupe

  25. Also…SARAH PALIN111!!!!11!!!!

  26. DeLand DeLakes says at 5:18 pm, December 11th, 2008

    DeLand DeLakes: Face. Face as ugly as Mary Cheney’s ass. Sigh…

  27. SayItWithWookies says at 5:21 pm, December 11th, 2008

    A smart psychologist will refrain from making a diagnosis until after it is a widely known fact. That psychic who predicted 9/11 on live television two days later set a fine example for shrinks, economists and weathermen.

  28. Lascauxcaveman says at 5:29 pm, December 11th, 2008

    rina: Bingo! My own personal hair looks just like Blaggy’s (except maybe the tint) and its not because I’m suffering from narcissistic personality disorder. It’s because I’m too damn cheap/lazy to get my hair cut more than twice a year.

    That, and I love the early Beatles.

  29. wickedlittledoll says at 5:38 pm, December 11th, 2008

    It’s obviously an homage to his idol Elvis Presley, as is his attempt to run the state like Nixon ran the White House.

    It’s called Napoleon Syndrome, people. Short men usually have issues and find ways to compensate–this is not always bad. Some short men compensate by being nice or talented in some positive way. Others are assholes with glossy hair.

  31. NoWireHangers says at 5:48 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Also, “Baggy” wasn’t working, Jim. “Blagodick” is a vast improvement. I still like “Blago” the best though.

  32. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:59 pm, December 11th, 2008

    THE HAIR DID IT. HONEST.

  33. ManchuCandidate says at 6:42 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Does this mean that my low self esteem is the cause of my male pattern baldness and not genetics?

    Or is my male pattern baldness the cause of my low self esteem?

    Damn, psychology is hard.

  34. StephanieInCA says at 6:56 pm, December 11th, 2008

    This goes from reaching to a full-on reach-around. Do not want.

  35. Scandalabra says at 7:14 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Everyone lines up at Barack’s old barber in Hyde Park to get an “Obama”. Blaggo goes to Guido’s Northside House of Style to prune his “Stephanopoulos”.

  36. One Yield Regular says at 7:24 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Man, if he tried to get Tribune writers fired, I can’t wait to see what he does to the poor sod who wrote THIS.

    Also: “perfectly sculpted in rain or snow”? I could have sworn it was sculpted in bio-mimetic polymer.

  37. bitchincamaro says at 8:05 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Mustang: Hold your horses there, pony. Rest assured the whiteboard at Wonkette HQ looks like a super bowl playbook about now. Our editors’ heads are bursting with wondrous ledes, and it is our duty to pant and salivate, knowing this cunt’s time is nigh.

  38. In the rain or in the snow
    I got the funky flow
    but now, I really gotta goooo!

  39. graceless says at 8:54 pm, December 11th, 2008

    I’m just saying fellows, don’t use that “Just for Men” stuff. Just don’t do it, unless you WANT to look like Blaggy.

  40. schvitzatura says at 9:21 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Cut to Mitt Romney…cut to John Edwards…

  41. josereyes.theroof says at 9:34 pm, December 11th, 2008

    Vanity Smurf: What about Elvis?

  42. And don’t forget Rick Perry of Texas. He’s the original Gov. Goodhair.

  43. Jukesgrrl says at 2:30 am, December 12th, 2008

    If narcissistic personality disorder is a Federal offense, they better just start putting a Gitmo-style fence around all of Washington, DC.

  44. What does it say about Barry that he’s always immaculate, doesn’t sweat and sees his barber every two weeks?

  45. Captain Swing says at 7:09 am, December 12th, 2008

    To hell with Blago- I want to read his analysis of Donald Trump’s comb over…
