CRAZY fundie lady rips Obama sticker off sis-in-laws car
So, my sis-in-law texts me yesterday "You aren't going to believe this!" And I must say my jaw dropped. Here's her story:

In Indiana:

Sis-in-law and sis-in-law (Her partner) are going to have poker party/bonfire on Saturday night. They go to the place where one of them works to get some firewood. While loading the wood into their car, the boss lady comes out to help and notices the Obama sticker (I gave her a few when I was there this past summer)on the back window of the car.

Boss lady: You aren't supporting Obama are you?! He's for letting babies die if they are born alive during abortions!!

Sis-in-law: (knowing there's no inroads with that argument)Says, there are more important issues than abortion in this election.

Boss lady: Like what?

Sis-in-law: Like foreign policy, the economy.

Boss lady: Like you care about foreign policy!

Sis-in-law just let it drop, it is her partners boss after all, not to mention a losing battle. But, noticed as she was leaving the parking lot, that her Obama sticker had been peeled off!


So, I have a request. In Indiana, it's very difficult to get anything Obama. It's been going out faster than they can get it! So, if any of you have any extra Obama stuff laying around, can we get it to her? She'd love to go all out now for Obama and she really likes the GLBT logo. Anyone have anything to donate?

Thanks! Psst

1. When she gets another Obama/Biden sticker,
have her tape it on the INSIDE of the window, facing out.

That's what I do living in Repub. Central.

Good luck!

:)

3. I will give her the suggestion!
I know what it's like too. I live in Colorado Springs and someone crossed out my Obama sticker on my car and wrote McCain over it. Thing is, the dumbass used ballpoint pen, so, Mr. Clean Magic Eraser took it right off!

5. I worship Mr. Clean Magic Eraser....
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser is an amazing product. I can't believe how
well it cleans walls! It takes off everything--crayon, pen, and those
little black scuff marks that you swear can only be covered up by
paint.

I also use them to remove dirt/marks from white leather tennis shoes.

These things really are magic.

..and no, I don't work for P&G, the company that makes the Eraser.

:)

4. We need to put a stop to this lying junk about infanticide.
Barack voted against a bill in the Illinois state senate that had a part in it that convoluted the action to be taken by doctors that made it impossible for anyone to follow, so he had to vote against it. Most of the bill was fine and he said he would have supported it had it been worded more clearly.
Had he supported this bill as stood it would have so tied any doctors' hands in whatifs that any decision or action could have been challenged as malpractice.It would have caused more harm than good and been unconstitutional.Intelligence and forthought is not logical when an inflammatory charge like this is made in graphic terms in the mass media It is reckless and should not be allowed in political campaigns.

He would never support infanticide. It is an insult and blatant slander to say that.

6. Absolutely, but in this case,
She would never believe you no matter what you say, how much sense is made or even facts. She just wanted the subject dropped before she lost her temper and her partner lost her job. So, she let it go.

9. The Catholic Times just had an article claiming Obama is pro-infanticide
I can't believe there hasn't been an uprising from the pews.

14. She can download stuff here:
http://www.barackobama.com/downloads/, including the GLBT logo, and print it out. Just as another option. I unfortunately don't have anything to spare, but would send it if I did!

BTW, you s-i-l's boss sounds like a total nutjob.
