Are you still seeing Bush bumper stickers?
It seems like Republicans like to keep them on their cars just to rub our noses in it. Yesterday I saw a car with a Bush yard sign in the window!

1. I am seeing a few Bush bumper stickers.
You know what else I am seeing in my area? Kerry bumper stickers. Many of them. I kid you not.

2. I'm still seeing Kerry stickers
and one that I love-Hate is not a family value. Hope they keep them on their cars. My husband is so mad at Kerry he made me take our signs down.

5. I've still got Kerry-Edwards stickers in the back windows........
of both of my cars.

I'm in Kansas City and I still see lots of cars sporting Bush-Cheney and Kerry-Edwards bumper stickers.

4. Yes, unfortunately.
And I always send ill wishes to the driver. Can't help it. :)

But I'm still seeing lots of Kerry stickers too, and I always have the impulse to wave or give a thumbs-up - or at the very least to pass and show the other driver that there's a compatriot nearby....

46. Yeah, my JK sticker's still on, and I always want to pull up beside other
JK stickered cars, and roll down the window and discuss the Election Fraud updates. But traffic doesn't allow me.

I have noticed MORE Kerry stickers however than Bush lately. In fact, most of the Kerry ones look new? I wonder if we're having a rebirth of hope?

And on an 'omen' type note: I have a K/E balloon which I inflated the day before the Election, and it STILL 'floats!' I can't believe it. Every day I test it to see if it has enough air, and it doesn't seem to have lost any in the last 6 weeks. I've never had a balloon last that long before. I consider it an omen, and shall guard it carefully...until JK UNconcedes and it inaugurated! So there!

7. I pulled into the Huntington Indiana Arbys last week
for a quick sandwich. The SUV in front of me was taking an extraordinarily long time at the food window. Then I noticed Bush Cheney stickers all over the vehicle. It had a christian fish symbol on the back. And the porky driver (mom?) was reading the Bible to 3 well-fed-looking kids in the car while they were waiting. Dad was in the passenger seat & looked bored. Finally the food came - 3 gigantic sacks!
All I can say is "freeper red freeper red freeper red freeper red, etc:

You know more about that family from being in the car behind them than their family doctor.

41. Ha Ha !
It took about 10 minutes for that poor Arby-girl to fix their order, so I had lots of "observation time." The Bible was opened in the middle, so "Mom" was reading from the old testament - maybe Psalms? I had Glen Frey's "Party Town" on my tape player, therefore I didn't catch the sermon!

18. Exactly! There are far more around here now than there were
prior to the election.

And in my brother's neighborhood in Oregon, a guy put up two gigantic Chimpy signs just after the election.

the morning after the Super Bowl. Many of them probably didn't even vote.

26. Heck, there's still a BIG Bush Cheney/Isackson road sign I have to
look at all the time just up the road from my house. I thought there was some kind of law that said those had to come down shortly after the election! But then...this is Georgia!

28. I'm seeing more than I did during the election.
I think some of the cowards are putting them on their cars now that Bush "won."

I still see two or three Kerry stickers per day, though. Mine is long gone, but I do have my W with the line through it on my car.

37. Still do
I was driving with my family on the Garden State Parkway today, and in the mirror I see a Hummer coming up on the left, about to pass me. I said, "I hate these gas-hogs, plus they usually have Bush/Cheney stickers on them". Sure enough, when the beast passed me, guess what I saw?

43. Saw some scary signs in VA today....
Saw some scary signs in VA today....driving through some rural counties. First I noticed the multitudes of Bush/Cheney stickers on every vehicle.

Then I passed "Jethro's" house, which had no less than five rusted out cars, three grills, a washing machine, dry-rotted tires, and two flea-bitten hounds guarding the homestead. "Deliverance" music playing in the distance...you know the type of place. And a 4'x8' sheet of plywood with BUSh (exact spelling) spray painted on it. That was laughable.

Then I saw two signs a few minutes later nailed to trees about 15 feet in the air along the road. One said "LIBERALS-ACLU EATS DUNG" and "LIBERALS LOVE QUEERS." Those were scary. I looked at my mom as I accelerated and said "we gotta get the hell out of this county!!!"

Made it home okay to my county which went 45% Kerry, 54% Bush. I felt much more at ease in comparison.

When the economy goes in the to hell, when more and more die in Iraq, when the draft starts, When social security is gone we can stick up oour own bumper stickers: "Bush04/Who's Sorry Now"

49. Oh hell yes.
I think there are people out there who stuck W stickers on their cars after the election, or stuck more of them on their cars after the election.

I keep meaning to brainstorm some good subversive 'Anti-W' stickers, like:

SCREW JESUS - BUSH IS MY GOD!
EIN VOLK, EIN REICH, EIN FRATBOY
W: THE ANTICHRIST

But I took my Kerry sticker off the day he conceded without a fight. I think a lot of people did.

to my neocon co-worker who still has his * sticker on his vehicle. I also wear my "NOT ME" bracelet to work. He hasn't asked me what it means.

Does anyone know where I can find a "magnetic" yellow ribbon that says, "Bring Them Home" written on it?
