Now that I have my DU bumper sticker in place on my car...
Now that I have my DU bumper sticker in place on my car, I have noticed a significant increase in the number of tailgating SUVs behind me when I'm driving. Interesting.

That is all. Carry on.

1. ya know I have noticed that too
but I've had mine on for 2 years. Only recently does it seem like people are right on my bumper. I suspect it's only that some SUV drivers have poor or no depth perception.

4. Put your DU bumper sticker on a magnet...
Put your DU bumper sticker on a magnet so you can easily remove it on those occasions you need to leave your car unattended in an unsecure place. I know people who have had their cars defaced for having anti-Bush bumper stickers, so I assume a DU bumper sticker can incite vandalism too.

Remember, we are not living in America right now. We are living in Bush's distorted vision of America. There are a lot of malignant Bushbots out there who feel emboldened right now.

3. My tailgaters are usually big monster pickup trucks.
Maybe it's also because I have two ribbon stickers which read: "U.S. Out Of Iraq" and "Bring The Troops Home."

5. Well, don't assume too much based on the vehicle someone drives...
A lot of union guys drive SUVs and pickups.

9. My kids drive SUV's. Hubby has a pickup.
This is Colorado after all, and we carry a lot of stuff around. Bikes, dogs, cats, people, stuff. :shrug:

Used Photoshop for the image

PM me if you would like one.

I was just driving in traffic and these two ladies behind me were absolutely cracking up, smiling and giving a big Thumbs UP!
