Saw a bumper sticker. On a gashog SUV, of course.
It read, and I quote:

SUPPORT
PRESIDENT GEORGE W BUSH
AND OUR TROOPS

Yes, it had EXACTLY that emphasis AND order.

Pardon me for asking, but is Lancelot Link shedding blood, losing limbs, or hosing off remains of fellow soldiers/civilian's bodies off of vehicles and sidewalks? Is he wasting away in a 120 degree furnace with chemically polluted air? Does The Commader-in-Cheat worry about not coming home to his loved ones, his/her children, her spouse?

Why, exactly, does that stupid simian need OUR support in this Oh-so-trying time for him?

Never been SO tempted to hawk up a loogie and decorate. :grr:

1. Seems that supporting *bush and supporting the troops
is a mutually exclusive statement.

2. I've seen that one too...
and I swear I have rarely seen one of those "Support our Troops" magnets or W stickers on a fuel-efficient vehicle. Maybe 1 out of 20.

4. I would like to find a sticker
that says "support our troops-bring them home". Anyone know of any sources?

5. I've actually seen ribbons on a fuel-efficient vehicle THREE times.
Not lying on that one. ALL of the "Support our President" (and let's not beat around the Bushes, that's EXACTLY their intent) ribbons are ALWAYS on gashogs.

6. Yeah, I've seen that dumb sticker many times
Too bad we didn't have "Support President William Jefferson Clinton and his blowjob" stickers back in the late '90s.

8. ETAwful posted about the same sticker yesterday. He left a note
on the windshield; "Shouldn't your bumper sticker read President Bush OR our troops? You can't do both."

9. Reminds me of a bumper sticker i saw the other day - said "Viva La Bush"
I wanted to :puke:
Most of the W sickers i've seen are on SUVs, but I have seen the STT ribbons on EVERYTHING - cars, trucks, SUVs, vans. But then again I live in one of the reddest states so there are a wide range of repukes. I hate how these idiots believe that you have to support Bush to support our troops then when you speak out against Bush they get offended b/c you HATE AMERICA and dont support the troops.
