Look everyone, Red State’s Erick Erickson is trying to pilfer more money from Amazon.com, with gimmicks! (ERICK HOW CAN WE DO THIS TOO?)

What happened yesterday is that Charlie Crist suggested Marco Rubio got a back wax, and now Erick Erickson wants people to send back wax to Charlie Crist. HEY-O!

We’re glad that the right wing is caring about this Florida Senate primary, so we don’t have to. Interestingly, Erickson suggests that this Crist comment may have been racially motivated, since Rubio is Mexican like the dickens, and illegals all have back hair. SO NOW EVERYONE IS RACIST, IS WHAT YOU’RE SAYING ERICK? Stupid liberals.

How would gay Charlie Crist know what Rubio’s back looks like?

Joey Ratz March 9, 2010 at 4:35 pm

What the heck is a “-$100.00 bill”? Does the state of Florida give you a hundred bucks if you wax your back?

norbizness March 9, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Or, alternatively, send them both to the Kuiper Belt.

liquiddaddy March 9, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Eric prefers samllish, hairless men, like Gary Bauer.

germansteel March 9, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Send Erick Erickson’s parents a baby name book.

Crank Tango March 9, 2010 at 4:38 pm

Jesus, Maybe Charlie Crist just knows his salon rates. But he is a republican, so he is also racist for sure, so whatever.

JMP March 9, 2010 at 4:41 pm

Good to see Erick accuse Crist of gay baiting, then immediately make a gay joke about Crist.

Why, do I read the comments on Redstate? Sigh. I just about lost it seeing this, which apparently came from the mirror universe:

“Republicans let people get away with far more than Democrats do. Some of you out there chalk that up to a mythical “I’m going to take the high road”, when there’s really no clear set of two separate roads, high or low, visible. Republicans typically lose elections because they’re trying to construct these nonexistent “high roads”, while Democrats focus on completely and utterly decimating their opponents”

Dammit, not only is that not the truth, but it is the complete opposite of the truth

[re=527447]germansteel[/re]: Damn, that’s funny.

TooFar4SC March 9, 2010 at 4:45 pm

Good thing he wasn’t in the shower with Rahm, you can’t wax a wet back.

chaste everywhere March 9, 2010 at 4:46 pm

[re=527447]germansteel[/re]: Hilarioso! (Plus extra poignant ’cause it’s too late to send them a baby-name book ’cause they already named him, like, years ago.)

imissopus March 9, 2010 at 4:47 pm

[re=527452]JMP[/re]: That’s such a common meme on the right, to claim that libs are the only ones who engage in the politics of personal destruction, smear their opponents, and so on. Drives me absolutely nuts.

Lionel Hutz Esq. March 9, 2010 at 4:49 pm

Jim, if you put up a link, I would be more than happy to send trucknutz ™ to, well, almost anyone.

[re=527441]imissopus[/re]: Like Stephen Colbert, Crist is afraid of bears.

Chernobyl Soup March 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm

[re=527444]Joey Ratz[/re]: Well Florida should. Have you ever been to Daytona Beach?

Snarkalicious March 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm

WAX IT DONT TAX IT.

JMP March 9, 2010 at 4:53 pm

[re=527460]imissopus[/re]: Gah. It would be nice if Democrats actually ever once smeared their opponents, but they won’t do so even when there’s real dirt out there; meanwhile, idiots still believe Obama was born in Kenya and still make jokes about Gore “inventing the internet” even though he never said that.

It’s hard to tell whether they’re that stupid, or just evil; probably both.

SayItWithWookies March 9, 2010 at 4:53 pm

Full disclosure: this goes to RedState’s Amazon.com store, so we’ll get something for every one you send. But it doesn’t affect your price.

Erick’s just trying to save up enough wax (I assume he gets a thimblefull of each can sent) so he can wax his own back. Purely for research purposes, of course. Hey Erick — when you get your ass done, be sure to slap on some aftershave immediately.

Potater March 9, 2010 at 5:01 pm

[re=527477]JMP[/re]: If you want a good gauge of what Republicans think of themselves, just listen to what they call their opponents.

[re=527441]imissopus[/re]: I’m just surprised Her Majesty Cristina wasn’t didn’t know the full price of a back wax. Must be that smooth, twinkish skin she was blessed with.

Gorillionaire March 9, 2010 at 5:01 pm

You know what Erick? I totally hate money. Completely pisses me off when people send it to me, especially twenties and hundreds. Also gets under my skin when people just cold drop single malt Scotch on my front stoop. You know, like just leave it there, for free. Man that pisses my liberal ass off. Also hate that “MILF Goes Black” DVD series.

[re=527452]JMP[/re]: “Dammit, not only is that not the truth, but it is the complete opposite of the truth”

Which is pretty much the standard GOP approach to managing their message.

[re=527477]JMP[/re]: “It’s hard to tell whether they’re that stupid, or just evil; probably both”

Depends. The elected officials and the thought leaders know damned well that they’re lying and they really could not possibly manage to care any less about that fact. The sheeple on the other hand are just dumb.

EdFlinstone March 9, 2010 at 5:05 pm

[re=527470]Snarkalicious[/re]: Well done. Jeebus wasnt it only a few years ago wingtards went nuts on Edwards haircut, now their defending a guy using party money to get a 100 dollar cut.

queeraselvis v 2.0 March 9, 2010 at 5:11 pm

So this just means that Erick is moving his profile from Bear411 to Smoothtwinks, amirite?

the problem child March 9, 2010 at 5:13 pm

Obviously, this is not only racist, but sexist,too. I can get everything waxed for well under a hundred. But they charge -$100 to do some guy’s back? And I thought the sexism in haircuts and drycleaning bills was bad…

ddenby March 9, 2010 at 5:17 pm

Erick, Erick. It’s “wetback” not “hairyback.”

Gosh, get your epithets straight.

Extemporanus March 9, 2010 at 5:18 pm

I had a half-dozen hairy back pics on mental deck in anticipation of this post, and for once I’m going to show some restraint and not link to any of them. Instead, I will only say this:

It’s a good thing Rubio’s Cuban and not Brazilian, or this attack by Crist would’ve really hit him below the belt.

(Shoulda gone with the follicular fap files, huh?..)

PickneyPinchback March 9, 2010 at 5:41 pm

Let me understand this. If Erickson hated Olympia Snowe and wanted people to send salt to her because salt destroys snow, and he likes Rubio, shouldn’t he be asking people to send back hair to Crist? I’m just sayin’.

Oh, and send towels to Rahm Emanuel!

WIDTAP March 9, 2010 at 5:42 pm

Jim, you capitalist pig you, how will you be able to claim your rightful position in the New Socialist Order if you are found to be out huckstering giant Campbell Brown blow up dolls on E-bay?

Snarkalicious March 9, 2010 at 5:43 pm

[re=527492]EdFlinstone[/re]: Next one is 3 G’s to ‘Jindal up’ his campaign photos.

“Back wax, paddy whacks, Charlie’s got a bone, this right wing went rolling home.”

Capitol Hillbilly March 10, 2010 at 7:25 am

Where does one go about procuring this “backwax”?

[re=527441]imissopus[/re]: ‘Cause he’s a swarthy spic.

Vartan84 March 10, 2010 at 9:33 am

Salt melts Snowe, too!

Traveler March 10, 2010 at 9:39 am

[re=527478]SayItWithWookies[/re]: The heck with the aftershave – that is for sissies. Real men use rubbing alcohol and they pour it on.
