Man Gets Romney 'R' Tattooed On His Face

[Kelvin Mace]

Source: ABC News

Some say that campaign ads are getting just ridiculous. But now it's taken a turn to the truly bizarre. An Indiana man has auctioned off space on the side of his head, where he tattooed Mitt Romney's presidential campaign "R" logo in a 5-by-2-inch spot for a bid of $15, 000.

Eric Hartsburg posted the eBay listing in August, and told ABC News that he was paid $15,000 by a Republican eBay user, who preferred to remain anonymous, to get the Romney logo permanently inked on the side of his head. Hartsburg, who is an Indiana native, told ABC News that he agreed because the tattoo was something that he could live with.

The stoopid is strong in this one.

1. He's an idiot... Marked for life and for a looser

[Th1onein]

7. It's not "looser."

"Looser" means something that is not as tight. As in my pants are "looser" now that I've lost weight.

It's "loser." As in "Marked for life and for a loser."

[Kelvin Mace]

20. I think he was being ironic

Like when we call people "morans".

[Th1onein]

40. Geez. I see.

Sometimes, I'm an idiot. And a looser.

[Ecumenist]

52. Looser means something isn't as tight as it should be? Then, he's correct. As in:

"That boy ain't wrapped too tight." I mean, who in the hell take any amount of money to do that to themselves? REALLY?!!

[bayareamike]

2. 10 years from now no one will remember what that R means. nt

[whopis01]

29. lucky for him. nt

[Blue_Tires]

30. +1000

He's laughing all the way to the bank...even if he didn't grow his hair over it in the future, someone will see him ten years from now and think he's a Richmond spiders fan

[monmouth]

3. His mother is so proud...n/t

[maxsolomon]

4. Appropriating the tools of rebellion to support wealth and power

Tats, piercings, long hair with shaved sides, such a rock n rollin rebel.

All in support of a hedge fund asshole who wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.

Way to stick it to the man, poseur.

[patrice]

5. slave

[hrmjustin]

6. Lord God Almighty forgive his stupidity.

[mac56]

8. When asked if he would get an Obama tattoo stamped on his forehead..

if requested by the highest bidder, Hartsburg says that was one question he wasn’t prepared to answer.

“No one has ever asked me that,” he said. “That is one question that I wasn’t prepared to answer. But no, no, I would definitely not get an Obama tattoo.”

No, of course not. Because that would just be crazy.

[AAO]

12. I call bullshit - if we raised $25,000 he'd do it.

He's already admitted that he's prepared to accept the highest bid to deface his face. (which is already defaced by his face).

[aletier_v]

16. $30K for an Obama logo peeing on the Romney logo!

[AAO]

18. I'd throw in $100 for that! n/t

[trouble.smith]

35. I bet he'd eat a dog turd for $500.

[JudyM]

48. Too funny. Thanks for the laugh. nt

[heaven05]

9. ???

stupid ass.

[Cirque du So-What]

10. $15,000, huh?

He'll lose more than that every year, as employers aren't exactly jumping at the opportunity to hire assclowns like this.

[BadGimp]

11. re: The stoopid is strong in this one.

omg yes

[AAO]

13. That is either Yoda's disciple, or he's ready to eat sombody.

[SingleSeatBiggerMeat]

14. Well, The Goes The General Surgery Residency

At Johns Hopkins.

[condoleeza]

15. You have to be really selectively dumb to do this,

wonder if he did it on a bet after too many shots? Either way don't imagine he's gonna love having defaced himself like this, but it's a good warning sign that any thinking female can use to avoid this idiot.

[matt819]

17. You just know

that he has a swastika somewhere else on his body. I just can't wait for those photos to turn up.

[LibDemAlways]

19. This asshole is going to be the laughing stock of

laughing stocks on Nov. 7. n/t

[Great Caesars Ghost]

21. If I am correct.....

Does that make him ineligible to vote because his tattoo is basically a "campaign sign"?

[The Last Democrat]

33. Could

Be.

[SemperEadem]

22. If Mike Tyson looks stupid with that tatoo on his face

this guy looks even more stupid... but then again, it appears that he's got "fuck" tatooed on his neck, so

[Liberal Veteran]

23. The "R" stands for "Regret" as in "tattoo regret" - nt

[Ahpook]

24. oh, he'll regret that

[cosmicone]

25. How do we know it is a permanent tattoo?

It could just be painted on or stuck on.

[Marie Marie]

44. My thought exactly.

[RushIsRot]

26. P. T. Barnum proved right again!

[Lasher]

27. That will be a little harder to get off than a loser's bumper sticker.

[savalez]

28. He should wear this shirt.

[Quantess]

54. Exactly. (no text)

[QUALITYCONTRoll]

31. Soon we will chose....A World leader..or a business man..

......YOU..for one should chose the...... ...........World Leader!

[uwbadgerdem]

I want to be able to identify stupid people from a distance

[n2doc]

36. somebody send him this:

[tabasco]

57. LMAO!

Thanks for the morning guffaw!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

37. The bar for news has pretty much hit the floor, hasn't it?

Obligatory idiot comment here.

[onehandle]

38. Why not a swastica? At least that would be remembered in a year. Mittens will be forgotten. nt

[and-justice-for-all]

39. Moran...nt

[Brigid]

41. We Hoosiers are not all this stupid, really we're not.

I promise.

[Ash_F]

42. Man, he is going to be sad on Nov 7th /nt

[benld74]

43. Ah, Isn't political advertising NOT allowed inside of a voting area????

How is he going to vote?
if he ever has voted

[silvershadow]

46. Yep. I guess he will have to wear a ski mask or maybe a burka due to where it's located. nt

[Great Caesars Ghost]

59. He will either have to wear a bandage to cover it up or be turned away

and have it on til he is out of the no electioneering zone.

[brooklynite]

45. Y'know, I don't think he's going to get an invitation the the White House...

...no matter who wins.

[sofa king]

47. Okay, I'm not 100% on this one.

But I had to post it anyway.

[lexx21]

49. And here I thought that getting your dong tattooed was the height of stupidity

Just how freaking drunk (or brain fart inane) do you have to be to do something like this? For $15k??? You couldn't pay me enough to put the emblem of that douche bag on my body.

***Disclaimer... calling Romney a douche bag is in no way meant to insult other douche bags either living or dead.

[ronnie624]

50. Erm... not weird, at all. n/t

[davidpdx]

51. I think he should have gotten an "L" tattooed on his forehead

[StarryNite]

53. HAHAHAHAHA

[Turbineguy]

55. Selling his face to be mutilated.
