Sick of those "W" stickers in your town?
As I was walking to my car today at a busy shopping center, I noticed
a few. I AM SO SICK OF SEEING THEM!

I decided a way to deal with these people that are still proud of this chimp.

I printed flyers that simply say:

WHY ARE BUSH's APPROVAL RATINGS LOWER THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT IN RECENT DECADES??? AND WHY ARE GAS PRICES SO HIGH???

I just did it on Word, printed a few, and am keeping them in a folder in my car. So next time I see a car with this sticker, I will quietly walk up and stick it on their windshield. They can do what they want with it, but at least it will make me feel better.:hippie:

4. Good for you.
I hope a repuke doesn't catch you in the process and harm you. You know they are good at that. Good luck and take care.

5. The cult of "W".
I've seen less and less lately, though.

in iraq right on the sticker.

7. Smug bastards leaving a message on their SUVs
Or their Chevrolet Corsicas, rusted out, proud to stop gay marriage; the hell with health care for Grandma. Why are we so terribly disorganized?

8. Well, since there is one on my car and not because I put it there,
I would hate for someone to attack me for something I just couldn't stop...

15. Sorry to hear that.

I would be so embarrassed to have to drive around with a W sticker.
I'm assuming that's because it is someone else's car you are driving.
Maybe you should consider some kind of magnetic sticker that you can place over it while you are driving.

18. Its a little bit of stubborness I admit, he did it to bug me, by ignoring
it, it bothers him more. I know, stupid and childish.

16. Botany is right
during the 2004 election, a local GOP covered by Kerry sticker with a Bush/Cheney sticker. I felt so violated by the invasion, and the fact that they felt like they had the right to do something to my property.

And they certainly didn't change my vote or my mind.

Your call on what feels right for you, but I'm concerned you might be starting a game you can't win. I don't see how it can end well.

11. Just today
I saw a minivan festooned with Bush and "W" stickers.

There was also a sticker "If you think education is expensive you should try ignorance".

Needless to say, I was non-plussed.

13. Just don't let them catch you putting one on their SUV...
they might turn you in for treason or something. My town is plagued by the "Presidential Prayer Team" stickers....these offend me on oh so many levels. Funny that they only seem to be on 2 types of vehicles, either giant gas-guzzling fuck-youmobiles or rust bucket Jesus jalopies right next to the "Waiting for the Rapture" and "He said it, I believe it, that settles it" bumper stickers. :puke:
