Democratic Underground vs. Kerry/Edwards Bumper Sticker???
My DU bumper sticker arrived in today's mail, and it is terrific! Yes you too can contribute here and get one.

But, as the thread title suggests, I have a dilemma. My wife will let me put the DU sticker on the car, along with a new Green Peace sticker, but wants to take the Kerry/Edwards stickers off first. Yes, we are both unhappy with their lack of leadership on the election fraud front.

I am leaning toward disseminating REAL news by helping others find DU, and will shrug off the bad Karma of removing the Kerry/Edwards stickers...Unless, in your opinion, it is more prudent to take leave them on a while longer...

25. Two more week, I agree.
A lot can happen in two weeks.

Besides, you can always take the DU sticker inside your back car window...for now.

35. Good suggestion Faye! My hubby knows mine needs to stay on until
at least after Jan 6th, but probably not longer than Jan 20th unless things start to happen. He's getting agitated about the sticker but hasn't said anything about taking it off lately.

39. I still have mine on, and won't remove it until
Inaugaration, but will leave on my Save Trees, Remove A Bush sticker until he is out of office, whenever that might be.

2. Hell's bells, not only will I NOT take off my K/E rear bumper sticker
Edited on Wed Dec-29-04 01:34 AM by Straight Shooter
I'm taking my other one and sticking it on the front bumper. Coming and going, I want people to know where I stand.

I love to start conversations with nonbelievers :)

edit: Oh, yeah, almost forgot ... leave the K/E sticker on.

6. Oh, I believe all right, especially in
the tremendous grass roots effort of DUers and others out there who are truly making a difference.

I want people to know where I stand too...that * did not "Win" the election. John Kerry...John Edwards...will you stand with me, Straight Shooter, and the millions of others against election fraud?!

11. Oh, believe me, I'm standing with you.
Edited on Wed Dec-29-04 01:48 AM by Straight Shooter
My bumper stickers are just a small manifestation of my efforts to remove Little Boots from the Monkey Palace.

edit: Oops. By "nonbelievers" I meant those in my community who know me but they don't know the story of what's going down in Ohio.

20. I peeled off the old JK one that Radical RWers scratched up...
...and put a brand new Kerry-Edwards one in its place. Two weeks AFTER the election.

NGU.

7. You have asked twice, and very politely at that.
OK I will leave the K/E stickers on a little longer. But damn it, the DU sticker goes on -- big and bold -- first thing tomorrow!:hippie:

12. It's $25, I think. And well worth it.
If you're (all of us) driving a few miles to work each day, you pass several hundred cars minimum. Hey mods -- why can't people buy DU stickers by the dozens at the store?

9. It wasn't a problem for me.
I had two K/E stickers, so I replaced 1 with my new DU sticker. To keep my history clear, I also still have my Dean sticker and my Bush is Whacked sticker.

32. Ditto that. I'm thinking of getting one of those "don't look
at me I voted for Kerry ones" to put on too. Maybe a DU would be a very nice addition as well.

21. OT a bit: I saw an interesting sticker tonight...
"I'll vote AGAINST CHOICE...
... when George W. Bush gets pregnant."

Interestingly, the pro-lifers are doing their darndest to get tax money here in Oregon. Apparently, taxpayers can donate up to $100 of tax money to the pro-life group. They've called me with this information and mailed it to me, too.

Anyone know about this? My husband, who does our taxes, says this will apply to the money we already sent to Kerry over the course of the campaign.

23. I live in Oregon, and your husband is correct. The total
political contribution is $100/year per couple.

And nice sticker ;)

27. Got my DU sticker last week. Could hardly wait to put it on!
I removed my K/E sticker in disgust the day after he conceded. I still see a few on cars around here, though.

29. Thank you.
"...we are not the ones who got our character and integrity raped in public..."

Absolutely right.

I really cannot fathom anyone NOT taking that into consideration before passing judgment. I appreciate the fact that you put yourself in the other person's shoes before casting doubt upon him. If the whole world did that, things would be a whole lot nicer.

Thank you for doing so. :-)

33. Really good points about Kerry, NVMojo. I appreciate your posts.
But I'm leavin my K/E sticker on regardless. Until hell freezes over(or some reasonable facsimile...)

And actually hell freezing over doesn't appear to be all that far fetched at this point...

Anyway...the Kerry sticker will still be there, regardless. ha.

34. I'm leaving them on
I've got both a Kerry sticker (from before the VP pick) and a Kerry/Edwards sticker, and both are staying on my car until they fall off. I want the world to know that I did NOT vote for the war criminals currently occupying the White House. I'd just add the DU sticker to the other ones. Of course, I drive a 6-year old Hyundai with a couple of dents and lots of miles on it, so I'm not all that concerned about appearances.

37. Leaving my Kerry sign on my car and might add back my Gore sticker
and top it off with the new one I ordered which reads - Another
Christian Against Election Fraud. Later if the clown actually is allowed back in the WH I plan to order another one that reads - One Nation Under FRAUD!
