Jeez, I can't imagine why anyone would take offense.

A Texas political action committee called Boats 'N Hoes PAC will be just a memory by Thursday, according to the Republican political consultant who is the boss of the man who started it.

Houston consultant Allen Blakemore confirmed Wednesday evening that his firm’s bookkeeper, Shaun Nowacki, started the PAC, which is a reference to a song from the 2008 film Step Brothers. The committee will be dissolved on Thursday, Blakemore said.

Blakemore said Nowacki was contrite about the controversy created by the PAC’s name, which surfaced on social media Wednesday afternoon. Nowacki filed paperwork with the Texas Ethics Commission to create the PAC on April 1 and named himself treasurer. The PAC has not filed any fundraising reports since its creation two weeks ago. It is the only PAC Nowacki is listed with on the Texas Ethics Commission’s website.

The film's stars Will Farrell and John C. Reilly sing such memorable lyrics as:

Boats N' Hoes
Boats N' Hoes, I gotta have me my boats and hoes!
The Nina (Oh), the Pinta (Oh), the Santa Maria
I'll do you on the Bottom While you drink a Sangria

Nachos, Lemonheads, my dad's boat
You wont go down cuz my dick can float
