Keep Calm and Carry On
Political blogs got you bummed? Talking heads giving you a headache? Even as the polls continue to heat up you can keep your cool with this comical, bi-partisan ice pack that's perfect for soothing republican rage, democratic depression, tea party tantrums, and independent angst.
The perfect peace offering for the hotheaded campaigner in your life, this United-States-shaped mediator is just the ticket to keep calm during the campaign. Simply store the ice pack in your freezer and apply post-debate to alleviate the ensuing aches and pains associated with the election. Printed with silver-tongued talking points, like "entitlements," "media coverage," "the 1%," and "the debt ceiling." Made in China.

This comic cooler takes a different platform than your average ice pack. We love the clever shape, the funny sayings, and, of course, that it really can ice your aches. What do you love about this political pack?

Interesting idea, but made in China. Also, it's blue, so it does seem to have a political leaning. ;)

Why? I don't see the point of of a POLITICAL ice pack.

A cute nonpartisan ice pack for the very partisan door-knockers at the end of the day.

No one wants to read an ice pack when they have a soar muscle or something else. Since they just want to put it on the area to numb it and do not have the time to read this thing.

I get the joke and love it. Wish I could send one to all the political PACs raising money to say negative things. Maybe this would cool their anger.

unless it was comparable in price to a plain icepack I don't see any reason to buy. I don't need one and I wouldn't give it as a gift

Do we really need another forum for the discontented?

hahaha I love it - my cousin is always ranting about political news that drives her nuts. This would be perfect for her at $10-$15

This is hilarious -- it's well-designed conceptual art with the right blend of schtick and smarts. Think corny novelties for the new millennium. The fact that it has a tongue-in-cheek "use" only makes it funnier. Love it! Plan to buy a bunch and hand 'em out at my annual election night party...

Witty in-the-know dig at "politics as usual." I LOVE puns, visual and otherwise - and can think of a dozen peeps who will see it, laugh at themselves, then actually find a use for it.

The haters don't get the joke! Its a great sort of personal yet impersonal gift - say, for a colleague, or an in-law, or someone with whom you politically disagree but want to "break the ice"-ha!

I'm definitely going to stock up on these for all my political family and friends. Great idea!

I can't imagine why you'd want this over a regular ice pack.
Steve

It's funny. It's blue ice gel... And it will be great to cool down over heated debates come this fall. Great gift for the politico in your family -- regardless of party.

This item is great!!! Given the upcoming "political season," I plan to buy a dozen for all my right wing idiot friends who I hope will be disappointed with the November results.

Seems like pointed edges have the potential to hurt.
