After Amazon’s Magical Affinity Algorithms decided I might like some Romney/Ryan beer koozies…
I thought I would check out some of their other great deals since holiday shopping starts just minutes after you have trampled somebody to death in search of a cheap flatscreen at Walmart on Friday morning at 3AM.
Let’s go shopping!
There is Romney Soap, in vanilla of course, because white bread has no smell.
A Romney Garden Gnome to ward off illegal browns from attempting to mow your lawn, just in case you’re running for president, for pete’s sake!
A Romney Chia Pet because … why not for a candidate whose hair was the most memorable and distinguished element of his campaign?
I actually enjoy this one, designed to buck up the spirits of a Tea Bagger who still can’t believe that the Republican party went with Romney/Ryan instead of Glenn Beck/Ted Nugent:
Since you will undoubtedly have to endure your embittered lunatic racist wingnut uncle ranting about the blahs and gifts and the welfare and Obama phones over Thanksgiving dinner this Thursday, you can reciprocate the holiday joy by sending him one of these lovely all-occasion cards for Christmas:
Suggested inscription:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! LOSER! LOOOOOSER!!!!
Merry Christmas,
Bob & Whitney and the twins.
Let’s not forget the Zombie-Eyed Granny Starver:

…and lastly, for the literature buff in the family, a very special collection of stories to read all snuggled up in front of the fire on Christmas eve, written by the Romney son the family doesn’t talk about very much
….. certain to put visions of sugarplums, or something, dancing in the young tykes heads.
Family memories. Good times….

Buck, Tagg, it’s all gay….I mean good.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom isn`t free, but it`s very affordable! November 3, 2012
By Kate C
This wonderful gift made my cousin the happiest I’ve seen him since we got married. I am so pleased that this marketplace is a free marketplace, where anything can be sold, and True American Values, like not being called a racist of you choose to vote for the non-minority candidate, can be upheld.
Gosh, I feel dumb — I had to read that twice before I got the joke. But it’s a great joke!
Also, o noble host TBogg: you’ve really outdone yourself this time. I haven’t laughed so much in weeks.
Sounds like Kate C has a bit of an axe to grind. Interesting place for her to plant her (presumably Stars ‘n’ Bars) flag. I like how they’re still charging full price for all that Vulture/Voucher swag. Mencken was an optimist.
You know, I’ve never quite been able to draw a line from working in the catalog business to writing a comedy blog. But suddenly I can see it!
Mike Dixon: Hilarious. The field of satirical Amazon customer reviews is full of potential.
Re “There Is No Shame in Voting for Mitt Romney”:
I couldn’t agree more. If any single word characterizes the republican party these days, it’s “shamelessness.”
They don’t talk about JonJon much either.
With good scripts and the occasional well timed ‘dog-whistle’ from the director just before shooting a scene, that family could be a new and weird Hollywood sensation.
Perhaps even funnier than Kate C’s review is the vendor for the beer coozies: VictoryStore.
OT, but as I observed the other day in a discussion about the Rmoney team’s massive technology FAIL, it turns out that the Republicans weren’t all that bad at turning out voters…it’s just that the voters they turned out voted for Obama rather than Rmoney.
The picture on the soap box is very much like Big Brother in 1984.
I found “Kate C’s” review very helpful, didn’t you?
The Romney soap looks like the perfect product for cleaning those “hard-to-reach” areas south of the
Mason-Dixonbelt line.Tbogg, I have no doubt that you actually purchased the “There is no shame in voting for Mitt Romney” tote bag, so that you could take it to Whole Foods and the “Local Organic Free-Range Vegan Farmers’ Exchange (please don’t call it a farmers’ market — that’s so capitalistic)” and watch the heads explode.
Just make sure you take along your camera. We want to see the looks of horror on the faces of your fellow shoppers.
The mother of all satirical review collections has to be this one. It goes back over a decade. Sadly, I think they had to cap the 5 star reviews when they reached the 1000 mark. My son and I were in tears one night several years ago as we shared some of the highlights. BTW, Jesus General has a made a running gag of his Amazon reviews.
Also too, it turns out that the Romney soap is “vanilla scented”. Of course.
You people are a little too giddy from all your gifts from the President. This was a damn close election. Or should I say it was damn nearly stolen. The “Protectors” claimed they clobbered ORCA, KKKArl Rove’s Botnet. Just saying a hedge fund manager Mormon Bishop with dancing horses got 47% of the vote.
Then there is Benghazi. Lindsey Graham wants to see the video. The battle is only starting.
Ah so as usual I’m behind the times. Thanks!
More ideas for Romney products:
Romney Humidity Gauge: Note: Dial starts at 48%
Romney Calculator: Specially designed to calculate only values over one million.
Gaffer’s Tape
Diplomatic Immunity: Two drops in your favorite drink and you become immune to diplomacy of any kind.
In a move symbolic of the Repuke reaction to the election, a third grader throws a crying tantrum because Rmoney lost –

Still more mature than everyone on Fox.
Most mittendise will go by the board, of course, but I’m betting there’s a rather large faction of the Republican party that will be utilizing this particular product until the Stench is firmly wiped away:

I’d have thought a bumper sticker removal kit would be popular right about now. I was insulted by someone with a Romeny sticker that overheard me suggest that though…

Not sure if I’d call it close.

edit-proportional fonts! How the fuck do they work?
If I ever become a serial murderer of schoolchildren, I’m going to blame it on the Mitt Romney Garden Gnome. Not a jury in the country would convict me.
I’d find this a lot funnier this morning if I hadn’t already seen Obama supporting Israel’s right to “defend” itself. My schadenfreudian giddiness is starting to wear off quickly.
Israel’s leaders certainly are demonstrating how violently pissy they can get when Americans don’t vote for the President they wanted, haven’t they?
I’m sure now that the Chinese have settled on their new leadership we can expect them to crash a boat or plane into one ours soon as well.
There’s a ‘code’ tag that makes text come out in Courier, if the software is set up right.

hehe, thanks!
I don’t think they meant Republicans, but they might as well have.
I think that’s what I’m going to call them from now on. The White Elephant Party.
That can’t be right. I’m pretty sure Dr Stein got a lot more votes than that. I mean there had to be more right around here. Wonder if they’ve had their planning convention to figure out how to mess with us next time?
I’m sure Bibi – Israel’s answer to Wile E. Coyote – isn’t happy that the Kenyan Usurper was reelected, but all politics being ultimately local, the upcoming elections in Israel may be a bigger factor in what his government is doing. Netanyahu gets to play tough guy again, possibly with disastrous results – also again – in order to scare the populace into reelecting his Likud faction… or else.
Israeli-American Emily Hauser is eternally tormented over the seemingly insoluble Palestinian-Israeli situation, and writes eloquently on this topic on a regular basis (blog, twitter). It’s good to see her get more visibility as a guest poster here.
… … … … …
A bit closer to the lighter topic at hand, those who are shopping on a tight budget might find inspiration in this fine video (3:53) (visuals are SFW, but a number of F-bombs are tossed about). That’s via a commenter over at Cole’s place.
When the Mittens merchandise makes it to the thrift shops, perhaps the artistes behind this production will do a remake.
Hmmm, white elephants that make you gag …
I think he is just getting warmed up with Gaza. That will get him his election, then he will try to widen the war and drag the U.S. in. This seems pretty obvious, really. I tried to hold out hope that Obama would not take the bait, but he is showing himself to be wise only at getting himself elected. Maybe it’s time to start furnishing my South American condo…
So when Obama says that Israel has a right to defend itself, this makes it “obvious” to you that he is about to get suckered into a war. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
If you send me $29.95, I’ll be sure you get on his mailing lost.
Uh, do you think that Israel is just defending itself? If so, I’d hate to read the newletters you use for your information.
Uh, do you think YOU actually have more foreign policy wisdom than Obama?
Just checked out Tim Tebow’s stats for today – I think his fans are shell-shocked!
Romney Garden Gnome, the negro lawn jockey in Republican Bizzaro World could be the perfect gift for your secessionist in-laws:
“in the days of the Underground Railroad the figures were used to guide escaping slaves to freedom: “Green ribbons were tied to the arms of the statue to indicate safety; red ribbons meant to keep going …”
I honestly don’t know how Netanyahu and his chums really feel about war with Iran. They’d certainly be delighted if international sanctions were imposed on Iran (based on the nuclear stuff), and they’d be happy if the U.S. took a more belligerent tone with Iran (as if our resident belligerents weren’t enough already).
But in a sense Netanyahu and pals are winning regardless, because they continue to redirect everyone’s attention from this (source here and elsewhere). They’re trying, with considerable success, to make the seized/occupied/stolen lands a fait accompli, one settlement or even one farm at a time.
I got no solutions.
I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
Probably won’t have the whole quote.
I don’t know what Obama’s foreign policy “wisdom” is. He appears to be showing the same amount of wisdom as George Bush, at least at the moment ,and I think I have more than Bush. Arguing further about this will be like arguing with people about how we had to stop Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction. Did you not watch Netanyahu with his time bomb cartoon presentation? Have you not seen the actions of Israel for the past few decades? Did you think the Neocons just disappeared? He wants the U.S. to go into Iran. I think it is obvious that Obama isn’t going to stand up to him. If you want to believe something else, keep reading the same newsletters you are currently reading.
The number of Israelis killed by missiles from Gaza since 2004 is 26, or about twice as many people as the guy who dressed up like the Joker killed in one night in Colorado. Meanwhile, Israel has killed hundreds and hundreds of people in Gaza and blockaded and starved the population. Who is protecting themselves from whom?
Tebow shocks the nation today and no one notices. What? Tebow didn’t do anything? But anyway, Peyton Manning is now greater than Tebow in Denver. Which means Manning is the Second Coming greater, in fact, than Jebus AND the Beatles combined!
OMG ItchyBrother, I had no idea of the sublimity that awaits one at Amazon. My life is now complete. I think it’s a good bet Cole Porter, Frank Sinatra, and ALL THREE freaking tenors weep when they think of the rawness of the talent exhibited on that album. And $63.59 is a bargain for the CD.
That’s not at all obvious to me. I don’t think Obama will come out in full-throated opposition to anything Israel does, because he cannot, unless – maybe – there’s an incident along the lines of Shaba and Shatila. And even then, he doesn’t have dictatorial powers, and he has a Congress which is more loyal to Israeli Likudniks than it is to the nation those Members took an oath to serve. Unfortunately, things have changed from the days of Saint Ronnie, who could – and did – harshly criticize Menachem Begin’s government for facilitating those aforementioned refugee camp massacres, among other things.
Like everything else he has to do, given what and whom he has to work with, he’ll have to move carefully. Those who are reflexive critics of him will not be happy with whatever he does, but then, what else is new?
I may have to get giddy again. The President gifted me with a 750 ml bottle of Trader Joes Vintage Ale. Great stuff, but walking becomes problematic after about 640 ml.
Thanks for the numbers. Where is my calculator?…So of 123 million million votes between the two, it was 51% versus 49%. This election has greatly angered the neo-con festering Sleeping Monster, same as in “The Hobbit”. Just saying…
