5. they don't care
Edited on Fri Jun-20-08 08:02 AM by MaryEllen71
They don't care if gas goes up to $10 a gallon or if the price of food goes up. They also say if you have a hard time trying to support yourself or a family that its your fault or work more than1 job.

6. They're a truly marginal population to be sure.
They drool whenever Limbaugh starts belching right-wing hate thru their dashboards. They are cruel to animals. They claw thru piles of dirt. They eat worms. They have sex with toasters.

And they're still unswervingly convinced they'd like to have a beer with Dubya.

22. Yes indeed, R1
Haven't seen any McCain stickers/signs. Few Obama's, either.

Just as soon our less progressive neighbors sit this one out, but I'm afraid they'll grit their teeth & vote for the whiteguy.

24. Yep. Plenty here in the D/FW area as well.
I live in dreamland: Big SUVs (Hummer H1,H2,H3, Expeditions,Excursions,Land/Range Rovers), gated communities and plenty of "W" stickers. He's made them wealthy and they know it. It's a magical world where there are no homeless people (that we can see), almost uniformly white and born-again. You're likely to see a Xian fish symbol next to that "W" sticker.

I plan on moving from dreamland. It's a nightmarish place.

29. Funnily enough, I haven't seen one of those....
In almost two years now. Even on the various SUV's I see around.

Oh, and I live in Cobb County, GA. Ya know, the place than sent Newt Gingrich and Bob Barr to Congress... Bush is unpopular even here.

10. Arrogant Assholes
They're the type who, when their team is winning, can't stop rubbing it in enough, or if their team is losing, they'll blame the refs or the weather....it's never their team's lousy play.

Not long ago, I was at a gas station when some fukstick in a huge Escalade pulled in...cost him at least $100 to fill that tank up and had what appears to be a NEW "W" sticker on the thing (we figured it's not easy to transfer an '04 bumper sticker to what appears to be an '08 tank...so we figured this screw had a supply of them. As he was driving away, another driver honked at him and flipped him off. There is some justice in this world.

12. That's a rare species anymore
They're dying out quick - should take a photo while you can. Hummers are dying out too - lots of hybrids out on the road. Change is good.

14. 12 posts so far and only two suggest...
that posting and driving is not a good idea??!!

Unless you are a passenger, I'd rather be on the road with the "W" truck.
