Replace them with their URL encode equivalent -- %2B:

[div style="margin-left:1em; color:#000066;"]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-reTMJxw2Mzc/UFpv7E2dMyI/AAAAAAAACF4/0ZJ_kf253b0/s1600/Mitt[font style="color:#ffffff; background-color:#3366ff;"]%2B[/font]FU[font style="color:#ffffff; background-color:#3366ff;"]%2B[/font]47[font style="color:#ffffff; background-color:#3366ff;"]%2B[/font]percent.jpg
If you copy that URL into your post it should work.
