The last time I got a DU bumper sticker my 19 year old son spotted it on the kitchen table before I had a chance to put it on my car bumper and the next thing I knew it was affixed to the door of his room.
I received a new one a few days ago after donating to DU again, so this time I put it right on the bumper as soon as I took it out of the envelope.
To my surprise, in a few days I have already had 2 people beep at me in the car and give me a thumbs up sign at traffic lights, pointing to the bumper and saying things like "Bush sucks".

2. Whoa! Good luck with that. |
|
Don't they drive around with shotguns mounted to their trucks? Hope you don't get hassled.

3. Sure, and everyone rides horses and |

wears cowboy hats. :eyes: I kid! I was out and about yesterday and did see (only) one W sticker. I just thought to myself, those poor, disillusioned people, but I had left my shotgun at home. :)

a dozen people who do have shotguns on racks in their pickups.) Because it is illegal to 'conceal' a weapon, so they have to be in plain sight if 'carried' - and because hunting season seems to last year round when you take into account Moose, deer, turkey, duck, rabbit, coon, coyote, etc.-
"I 'recon we mountain folk must be northern cowboys eh?"-
(We aren't hunters ourselves, but know many who are- and who don't hunt for 'show' but for food- and actually need to.- pasta, potatoes,and beans are our staple foods)
And our state turned blue AT LAST!!!! last election- for what it's worth- lotta Kerry stickers, and some of them are newly affixed- that's a statement!

9. Had mine on for months, now... |

And, so far, so good......my car is undamaged! I park in the street, in front of my house, except in the snow. The drive's not adequate for 3 cars, besides , I do drive around town, and as I say so far, so good!

4. I've been seeing signs all over... |
|
...drove by a cutie in a car with a homemade "Fear Bush" in her back window. Seeing lots of it round here, also "Proud to Be a Fightin Liberal" and plenty of Kerry/Edwards bumper stickers. Pretty amusing. The holdout Bushbots I know are feeling increasingly lonely, starting to whine about being persecuted (again)...

6. I presume you live in a blue state |
|
Florida is still sufficiently anti-liberal that I hesitate to affix a DU sticker to the family jalopy... we need this vehicle!

12. WOW... that is impressive |
|
and if the governor of F-L-A was anyone other than a Bush, I might try my luck as well.
