I seem to be making waves with the huge stickers on my car windows!
I wish I had a digital camera so I could post a picture for you but I don't so I will just describe my car rear window. I had these made at a sign shop so they wouldn't fade.

In 4" glow in the dark letters, at the top I have IMPEACH BUSH on the right and left at the very top. About an inch down and centered I have the same huge font, glow in the dark IMPEACH CHENEY FIRST. At the bottom of the window 5" high YELLOW glow in the dark, 3'long

NAZI'S wouldn't say "ENOUGH" either!

I am literally stopping traffic these days mostly by thumbs up people and a few thumbs down and the downers usually yell at me and I yell back "Why aren't you or your children in Iraq?" They just drive away without further comment. Start a bail fund for me, would ya?

is signed declaring cars to be smashed and grabbed if they offend some poor repug.

13. Reconsider enabling your profile
after all you already have indicated where you live. You are brave driving around the Metroplex with signs like that, just be sure to remove them if you're not driving.

Check out my profile for ideas to use in yours. That way if you have your profile enabled I can PM you....

And welcome:hi:

*As to starting a bail fund.

And I hope you never change lanes in front of me, either! :rofl:

6. THANX ALL.
I've been putting my two cents worth in DU for a long time but I am the type to let the car do my ranting for me. I guess I want out of the closet now.

8. The bad thing is that now I don't know where to put my OTHER
favorite sticker. It has a pic of 41 and 43 together and says:

DUMB AND DUMBER

9. I put a homemade Impeach Bush sign in our front window

the mom from the one Republican family in the neighborhood (Evanston, IL), that we keep around so we can be fair and balanced, commented on it

'Guess we're on opposite sides of the political spectrum'
'Well, you are'

hehe

11. Solution: Try some "Bumper Sticker Theatre"
I have a manilla envelope in the front of my car which contains MANY bumper stickers with the backing still on them. Whether I am in the driver's seat or the passenger seat, I select (or not) a sticker that I want to display.

I place (from the inside of the car) the bumper sticker of choice in the little groove/crevice on the door....on the inside of the front-side window. I can change the sticker anytime.....or remove it completely when the car is parked. There is NO REMOVAL of the sticky backing. It merely becomes a political sign that I put in my window whenever I feel like it.

The stickers that get the most positive response for me are "Support the troops....Impeach Bush"......"W =Worst" and "Fund Education, NOT War". I have about 10 others that I rotate. Kids think it is fun to do in the backseat as well. If I see an old Bush/Cheney sticker.....I use my "Don't blame me, I voted for Kerry" bumper sticker. It is fun, and the versatility really irritates the Republicans. If you are "followed", just remove the sticker and act like you have no idea why they are honking. Fun.....:rofl:

Most importantly......drive carefully.

18. I had to do something since my upside down 8' flag stapled to the front of my house since Kerry
caved wore out down to threads and had to come down. I feel like I either have to SPEAK or die. If Michael Moore can be brave then so can I. Thanks for all of the encouragement. I will look into that profile thing. :)
