19. Haven't heard his statement yet...he doesn't live in Crawford...
...but he does live in TX.

No doubt we'll hear something after he's arraigned.

22. Nope...but I'm figuring we'll hear Something tomorrow.

5. He's the Republican Bush-Supporter who allegedly drove over the crosses.
Thus spitting on the memories of the men & women who sacrificed everything for this country.

It's been changed, if you want the old one let me know and if you want one with higher resolution, let me know and I'll make it available.

16. Yup...
Chose a font that is easy to read. Also chose colors that compliment each other, making the text of your message stand out more.

example: red?blue, green?red, black?white

Helvetica is a very easy font to read!

18. Actually, I originally did it in a more standard way and in contrasting
colors, but I wanted a feel of antiquity and an odor of sanctity. Dark browns and gold seemed to work have worked best for my personal tastes on this one.

You're right though, if you wanted someone to read this from 20 feet away on a moving vehicle, bold block letters contrasting the background would certainly be better. But geez, you can do that in Word.

24. i've found from personal experience
that the stickers that are a little more of a 'challenge' to read, are the ones that you just HAVE to read- even if it means pushing my old clunker hard to get close enough to see. And leave a greater impression because they play 'hard to get'-

Must be that 'forbidden fruit' kind of thing.-

(i have an oval holographic one on my car that says "mean people produce little mean people" it's hard to see, but i have had more people ask me where they could get one, or say the LOVED my sticker than i can count- at least 30 times minimum. It's fun to watch the rear view mirror and see people mouth the words then inevitably turn to the person next to them and both smile, and start talking to each other)

26. LOL... You're on to something there. I have nearly rear ended someone
trying to get close enough to read an obscure sticker.

I'd like to see a study on that.

12. Hmm.. not known for sweetness. I stick to pure logic - Repubs really hate
logic more than anything else.

By impersonating the way they think and using history's most famous liberal persona, it really drives the message through their skulls.

14. Do you think
enough of them will know the word 'emulate'? Could be testing the literacy level there.

15. You know, I actually worried about that for a bit. I'm not sure how
many would get it.

17. Try this
Be Like Jesus
Become A Liberal

The people you're trying to piss off don't know what the word "emulate" means, and since none of them have actually read the Bible they don't know what the Beatitutes are.

25. That's how I messed with the Conservative freeper after JP II's death.
