Romney Tattoos Are Not Forever

Posted by on Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 10:26 AM

Remember the Romney face tattoo guy? He's had a change of heart:

Hartsburg tells POLITICO he plans to get the tattoo lasered off, a process that could take a year...[Hartsburg] heard some of Romney’s post-election comments, most notably his claim that the president won reelection because of “gifts” given to various constituencies.

“It stands not only for a losing campaign but for a sore loser,” Hartsburg said. “He’s pretty shameful as far as I’m concerned, man. There’s no dignity in blaming somebody else for buying votes and paying off people. I can’t get behind that or stay behind that.”

When a guy who would accept money to get a face tattoo calls you "shameful," you know you've hit rock bottom.

I'm amazed that someone with so little sense as to get a political logo tattooed on his face possesses the word "shameful" in his vocabulary.

Sucks for him. Red is the hardest color to remove, especially if it's fresh.

Well, I for one believe him. He sounds like a guy who really thinks things through, you know? Someone who doesn't act impulsively.

All of the sudden a guy who got a political campaign face tattoo is a voice of ...reason?

I'm going to get a face tattoo that says "Hey, don't get a face tattoo." and if there's room, along my jawline "Can you not see what a bad idea this is?"

Sir, I have a feeling that phrase "sore loser" is going to come back to haunt you, probably right around the third or fourth laser treatment on your face.

Who could have ever predicted he would regret that tattoo?

Yes, Mister Face Tattoo. We must always, always maintain our dignity, mustn't we?

I've been rethinking the Bob Dole tattoo on my ass.

Taking this long to encounter something he couldn't get behind Romney on is the saddest part of all. I have to assume he wasn't paying much attention.
