Hey, BUSH-HATING is finally the "HIP"... |
|
... thing to do...
I could not believe my eyes but right there is the heart of my conservative town, was a man with his truck spray painted: "IMPEACH BUSH"...
Hey ya'll, I think it's finally safe to remove our tin-foil hats!

2. Are you sure I can display my Democraticunderground |
|
bumper sticker in Oklahoma? Not sure I can afford a wreck or vandalism on my vehicle. The repubs are weakening here and are speaking ugly about bush but not sure they are ready to accept anything a dem says.

3. There is a difference I guess between a conservative... |
|
... town in NJ and one in Oklahoma, but nevertheless I swear, I am hearing whispers from ordinary folks and the dude in the pickup truck was a sight to see here... Two years ago he might have been shot...

4. Maybe not a bumper sticker |
|
But talk to folks, and encourage them to take a second look at their cherished stereotypes. Under the Republicans, we've rung up record deficits and engaged in ruinous elective wars, killing thousands and wasting billions. Say to your friends and acquaintances that the Republicans may not have come for your guns, like you fear the Democrats will do, but they have tapped your phone, scanned your computer and read your mail. And what have you used most recently -- your gun or your phone?

6. Best I can figure out when discussing politics with Repubs |
|
is they get all hung up on "They enlisted in the military and that means to accept going to war if a president asks them" and, they like tax breaks (gotta laugh on that one) and that the dems want to have all these "give away" programs to the poor and black and those on welfare. One of my replies is, if there is a dead body in the middle of the road who do you expect to pick it up? Of course the govt. in what ever form allows for picking up dead bodies in the road. It is so hard to reason with people that are hung up on the issue of Dems giving Their tax dollars to worthless people. hell, there are worthless people all over the place, but, do they not care about the misfortunes of their fellow Americans who have truly played by the rules and lost?

7. What I find the funniest is... |
|
... most Dems I know are liberal in their views for all other people but when it comes to their personal lives, they're fairly conservative... That's the irony of this whole thing...

I've had a variety of anti-Bush stuff on my vehicles since 2000 and before. There are many of us out here.

8. As I was taking SparklyJr to work today she said *exactly* this |
|
That all the 'cool kids' are finally getting the bush-as-lying-idiot' meme out into the pop culture.
This is a good thing.

11. I think it is finally the "Chic" thing to do, bash the Chimp... |
|
... Fine, we'll take it... Whatever gets these kids away from the malls and talking about politics, will work with me... All I know is, the dude in the pickup truck this afternoon, with "IMPEACH BUSH" in huge letters on the door, would have been shot at, riding around here like that two years ago...
This is the day I have been waiting for... :)

13. You must be either in the area east of Trenton or in pine barrens. |
|
The part of NJ I'm familiar with, north Jersey, is pretty much liberal.

15. Man, you're good... :) |
|
... East of Trenton is where I am... It's all farm lands out here, or used to be, and hunting clubs and campgrounds abound... We're about twenty minutes from the coast, so lots of tourists and hunters come through here... Voter records have consistently showed a big Repuke majority in this town and surrounding towns too, year after year... So seeing that dude in the pickup was a real funkin treat... Better than a huge ice-cream Sundae... :)

19. Rt 206 in Bordentown ....... Sportsman Den ..... and a lot of other |
|
absolutely **huge** sporting goods stores that sell neither baseball gloves nor basketballs ...... but lots of pistols and rifles and shotguns and bows and duck decoys ......
Not to diss hunters .... but that sort of thing at that scale is a real easy indicator of the general political bent of the neighborhood.

21. Exactly! You can't find a good sandwich to save your life but... |
|
... If it's a nice rifle you need, let me just grab my flip-flops and we can walk to the Sporting Goods Store, which like you pointed out, has no "sporting goods"... And Bordentown is "liberal" compared to out here... :)

10. It's much better than the "He's a good man" shit we were fed for years. |
|
The guy is an authoritarian, lying, murderous, treacherous, moronic, sack of shit in a cheap suit.

12. Everything but the last part... |

... I'm sure one of his suits costs more than 12 months of my mortgage but whatever... He's still a Chimp... You know what they say, "You can put lipstick on a monkey, but he's still a funkin monkey"...

... Love it...! And yes, us too, we couldn't stand the Chimp when he stayed far away from us in Texas but we always knew he wouldn't stay there... But off course back then, we were just insane left-wing liberals with too-tight tin-foil hats... Now for once, we're finally COOL...! I'm sure it's just a fad...
