VIDEO: Will Folks, Boy-Man

Posted on | May 27, 2010 | 13 Comments

“I don’t look at what I do as being angry and mean, and if it comes off like that, then I think maybe some people who are being criticized, maybe I’m hittin’ a nerve with ’em.”
Will Folks, Republican douchebag

And I mean “douchebag” in the most respectful and affectionate way.

What’s weird is when Folks says, “I’ve got a little girl who’s 7 months and a little boy who’s six year old” — and he’s dressed like a teenager.

Really. What’s up with this 30-something GOP political operative doing the sports jersey-and-ballcap look? OK, the cap is useful for hiding early-onset male pattern baldness. However, when you add in the grunge-rocker scruffy facial hair, isn’t the overall effect that of the guy who’s always hanging around campus pubs in college towns, hitting on 20-year-olds?

Video totally poached from Melissa Clouthier.

    The end game for a guy like this is not going to be good.

    Watch the video. This guy’s a type. He’s got an army of Beta-male wingmen who hang around him hoping to pick up some of his leftovers.

    Is he pushing the stereotype of bloggers never showering and typing at their computer in their skivvies?

    Well.. There is that but at least I shower and shave before I leave the house.

    It is pretty clear Will Folks is going to crash and burn. And there will not be Waldo Pepper to put him out of his misery. Talking about crashes (metaphorically), here is one.

    Hell, it is like OJ in Las Vegas!

    […] (you might remember Pub Politics from a couple of pieces Stacy McCain did a few days back where Pub Politics had Will Folks on as a guest).  Pub Politics is exactly what it sounds like, bloggers and politicos sitting in a bar, drinking […]
