Spotted the first "ROMNEY 2012" bumper sticker of the season . . .

. . . and I just laughed my ass off so hard, I almost swerved off the road.

My God, I just got to see what kind of human would go out of their way to display on their minivan their support of the absolute worst candidate for the highest office of the Washington Puppet Show in recent history.

You're PROUD to vote for Mom Jeans and his ramping up of Bewsh 43 Trickle Down? You support this Brylcreem bloodthirst and his Likud-fueled war-drum pounding? You WANT social services to be defunded and eliminated? You WANT Health Care (snicker) to be set back another 4 decades? You WANT a whole Supreme Court of Ninos and Alitos? You WANT a President Romney and a compliant Tea House rubberstamping every piece of horrid anti-human rights, pro-Corporate American regressive legislation that will nail progress shut for the next FIVE decades, a la 2001-2006?

You're into an empty suit who'll be nothing more than a signing hand for Grovel Nerdquest and His Magic Plutonomy?

You're DOWN with that? REALLY?

(siiiiigggghhh) . . . Better get some new shoes, peasant . . . them bullet holes will be awfully drafty in an Ohio winter . . .

It was a guy probably in his late 70's, and I wondered what the hell he was thinking until I noticed he was driving a Lincoln.

. . . for that man and his kids.

How do we pay for increased tax cuts for the wealthy (he raises ours)? How do we pay for ramped up military follies (he raises our taxes while giving the wealthy yet even MORE lotteries they'll do nothing productive or progressive with)? How do we pay for corporate welfare that's going to run even more rampant than it already is (hard as that is to believe)?

It's RIDICULOUS!

"I Ride Inside/Dogs Against Romney, Cat Division" bumper magnet and I live in a really red part of southwest lower Michigan--Amway Country. In fact, the county I live in went blue in 2008 for the first time since 1964. I've seen 1 Romney sticker and no Romney yard sings--extremely unusual for this city. I don't think Romney stands a chance in Michigan.

And this is in Georgia! We have a ton of tbagger nuts here. I'm sure they will hold their noses and vote for Rmoney over the "kenyan" but I am hoping a lot of them find other things to do on election day....

. . . . but we have a "Republican Victory Center" in my city, and you'd figure there'd be more distributed by now.

NO one likes this douche. I don't think they can win with "Well . . . . . . . . ..ur . . .. . . . at least he ain't Kenyan!!!"

Yes - a young guy driving a 20 yr old Corolla, pizza delivery hat on the roof of his car, with "Govt is the Problem not the Solution" sticker and a ROMNEY 2012 sticker. I cannot believe this guy making $10/hr wants tax cuts for millionaires. Unbelievable stupidity.

The tax cuts for millionaires wouldn't affect Pizza guy one way or the other. And he's using a Reagan chestnut, which has long been laughed at. Classic.
