I Need Some Good Ideas For Protest Signs
Bush is comming to my town soon and I am protesting.

I read in the local today that He is making a rather un-expect stop Lima as soon as saturday during the county fair and Travis Tritt Concert. Please help with suggestions


I have a few like

"you can't spell AWOL without a Dubya"

"Where's the WMD's? Looks like they weren't in Tirkrit."


If you know anyone in this area, please get the word out!

Allen county is big repug county but is rebelling internally.

5. "A free Iraq won't create terrorists
invading sovereign nations will"

That's soverei(g)n, not sovereignignity, not sovereigny nor sovereigninitinity.

2. HERE ARE SOME SLOGANS
BUSH - STRONG on SPENDING, POLLUTING, PROMISES

CUT BUSH, NOT YOUR PILLS

WHILE KERRY WAS FIGHTING, BUSH WAS HIDING


GEORGE a W o l BUSH

DUMP BUSH & NUCLEAR WASTE IN CRAWFORD

BUSH IS THE POSTER CHILD FOR WHY WE NEED AGGRESSIVE STEM CELL RESEARCH

BUSH: “GRIM REMINDER” OF A COURT’S SUPREME MISTAKE

TERROR ALERTS, ALERT OUR ENEMIES & TERRIFY OUR FRIENDS

KERRY-EDWARDS = THE RIGHT STUFF

BUSH = RADICALLY LIBERAL at SPENDING YOUR $$$$

TRUE PATRIOTS NEVER CRITICIZE THE MILITARY SACRIFICES OF OTHERS

KERRY-EDWARDS, RIGHT NOT RADICAL

SEND BUSH, NOT OUR JOBS, OVERSEAS


IN A CRISIS, A REAL PRESIDENT DOESN’T READ "MY PET GOAT"

GOD DOES NOT PLAY POLITICS, TAKE BRIBES, OR ENDORSE CANDIDATES

BUSH = LET MORE DOLPHINS DIE SO WE CAN CONSUME MORE MERCURY TAINTED TUNA

YOU CAN’T HUNT WITHOUT TREES

or

Swiftboat smear: If Bush isn't against them then he's with them.

9. don't bother
you won't be allowed within blocks of vicinity.

just judging from Cheney's visit here last week. We had a pro Kerry rally miles away and roadie from Cheney's group showed up to protest.

The irony of it all.

11. As Joseph N. Welch asked at the Army-McCarthy hearings:
"Have you no sense of decency sir...?"

Then again, it might be a little too obscure a reference. :shrug:

Make your sign look like the book with the Goat on the front and a picture of * trying to "read" on the back.

21. ideas
Osama still has a job. Do you?

Practice safe sex. No Bush. No Dick.

1991. We're at war. The economy is in the toilet. There's a Bush in the Whitehouse. 2004. We're at war. The economy is in the toilet. There's a Bush in the Whitehouse. Let's learn from our mistakes.

If Bush couldn't find oil in Texas, how is he supposed to find WMD's in Iraq?

We've seen the conservative part. When does the compassion kick in?

Bush/Cheney 2004. Why change horses mid-apocalypse?

30. time to change tactics
Instead of signs you should try to organize as many fellow protesters as possible to stand in formation ("at attention") with at least a few members of the group holding up american flags. Remain silent and somber. At this stage in the game yelling or chanting will only hurt our cause. The nation knows the issues. The job to do now is show them just how many of us there are and how serious we have become. Time to take back the flag and make it known who the true patriots are in this country.

With the FBI crackdown on peace protesters I think it is time to change tactics. We have been using signs with catchy slogans for a long time now but if we really want to catch the attention of the american people why not attempt something a little different. It will take more time to organize and require the cooperation of others but it may be what is needed at this late hour.

What does everyone think?

31. We don't plan on yelling
at least I don't, I don't know about my one friend though. He gets even more outspoken than I do at these things if he is enticed.

Edited on Mon Aug-23-04 06:38 AM by coalminersdaughter
Is he doing a roll by or speaking in your area?

edit: nevermind, I just reread your post. Have someone stake out the top Republican in your area. He will be where Bush will be. Stay in contact by cell phone to find the best protest spot. Have fun.

33. Um those would be Mike Oxley and Mike Dewine
possibly Taft, Voinovich. The paper still says nothing on exactly where he is going to be but he is going to be stopping. This is the same time that the Travis Trit concert is going on at the Allen County Fairgrounds too......I hope he doesnt go there, I will leave work to protest since I am next to the fairgrounds.

36. Who would Jesus smear?
Karl Rove: Heir apparent to Tricky Dicky and Lee Atwater.

Nixon and Atwater gave us Bush and Rove.

Bush II: A presidency based on a surname.

Bush: Bully, liar, coward.

100,000 British demonstrators agree: Bush is a twit!

This chickenhawk's goose is cooked!

Bush: Ego without a cause.
