Less than a week after a Nashville man was driven off the road because his car sported an Obama-Biden bumper sticker, Sarah Palin has called on Tea Partiers to stop drivers whose cars have a similar sticker.

Stumping on Saturday from Searchlight, NV -- Harry Reid's hometown -- Palin focused her rhetoric on the health care overhaul passed last week:

[still_one]

1. I am not sure what the law says, but that sounds like incitement to me /nt

[Orsino]

27. Naw, she's not that coherent.

She just means to stop to talk Obama supporters out of their delusion, but that they're known by their bumper stickers.

I know she's been deliberately amping up the gun talk, but this? I think it's fairly innocuous, like most things she says.

[arcane1]

2. Makes me wish I had a car n/t

[name not needed]

19. Makes me wish I had Obama/Biden stickers on mine.

[Blue_In_AK]

3. What's with the "hopey changey thing" again?

She uses the same tired old "jokes" all the time, like a toddler, who, if you laugh at him, keeps making the same silly face over and over until it's not cute anymore.

She disgusts me.

[d_r]

20. she always says the same thing over and over

its like her fans want to pay to hear her say the same thing.

[B Calm]

24. I'd like to ask her, How is that Hooked on Phonics thingy goin' fer ya?

[MadBadger]

32. Same is done at DU

[Winterblues]

4. "Make My Day"

I could only hope they would.....

[mariawr]

5. She'll get someone shot. nt

[H2O Man]

6. This makes for

one of the few times I've experienced a George Wallace-like thought.

[NeedleCast]

7. Talked for ten minutes, said nothing

[Liberal Veteran]

8. Someone does that to me and my response will be...

A lot better than that "pepper sprayey" is working out for you.

[piedmont]

9. "How is that hopey-changey thing working out for ya?" GREAT! I'm getting $5800 for buying a house!

We closed on a SWEET house a half mile from work and we're eligible for $5800 worth of rebate. Thanks, Obama! The BEST part is that our monthly house payment is over $200 LESS than we were paying in rent. And we get a yard.

[babsbunny]

10. Congrats!

[Wickerman]

17. Good for you and the Hopey-Changey thing!

You'll love being a homeowner!

[malaise]

11. I dare her

indeed I double dare her.

[Maru Kitteh]

12. Are they going to harpoon us from helicopters now?

[guitar man]

13. no, I won't pull over

I'm busy, I'm on my way to do something more important than trying to teach a pig to sing....and if they run me off the road, I won't say anything, the last sound they'll hear will be the slide racking on my 1911.

[Happyhippychick]

14. How's that Dopey-Crazy thing goin' for ya? (stolen from another DU'er)

[City Lights]

15. "Stop" them how?

She's a menace to society.

How's Willow doin', Sarah?

[Blue Owl]

18. Maybe with a siren that blares

LOOOO-ser, LOOOO-ser, LOOOO-ser

[jgraz]

25. Probably the same way she "stops" wolves from a helicopter

This cretin needs to be in prison. There is such a thing as too stupid to walk around free.

[LeftWingPunk]

16. well

its been 16-17 months since the election. You aren't going to find many Obama-Biden stickers. Also, she has no room to talk. She should have finished her term as governor before she does anything else. Not to mention she was governor of a state with less people than some American cities.

[Danascot]

38. A high percentage of cars in my area still have Bush-Cheney bumper stickers

:puke:

[d_r]

21. great, how's that bitchy, whiney thing working out for you?

You ignorant twit, you lost.

[babsbunny]

22. Let's all get new bumper stickers!

Obama/Biden. My bumber sticker now says something about Congress and big money,

[MajorChode]

23. Well, she's now rich

Apparently there's good money pandering to those who are at least 2 standard deviations on the left side of the curve. Who knew?

[Touchdown]

26. Please stop me! Hopey Changey is working out for me much better than

Abstinence ever worked for you. Hows that sorey losery thing working out for you?

[tkmorris]

28. Do it. PLEASE do it.

I have some pent up anger that needs a place to roost.

[Catshrink]

29. She is reckless.

Inciting people to road rage.

Inciting people to target pro-HCR Reps & Sens.

Inciting people to "reload."

And that voice! Nails on a blackboard.

[RedCappedBandit]

30. My DU sticker and I will be waiting.

Are they going to send the out of shape old white folks from the tea party rallies? :rofl:

[Quantess]

31. What an irresponsible bitch.

Sure, encourage harrassment.

[seabeyond]

33. stop them and do what? sheeeit, now i have to put a fuckin sticker on my new car

and hubby gonna be pissed

damn that woman

[AnnInLa]

34. How's that Waterloo thing workin' for ya?

Or, alternately: How's that hopey-changy thing workin' for ya? Better than quitty-shitty.

35. Tea Party Invades Nevada

I wonder how many invasions can this group take part in? The tea party pokes into Sen. Harry Reid's homestate of Nevada expressing anger towards everybody except themselves. Led by the palm reader Sarah Palin she has struck a chord with the party of no, let me rephrase that, hell no we can't!
That's the favorite GOP line we all can believe in. She preaches and nags about patriotism and conservatism to the tea party and bashes our president for doing big government. But lets not forget what president bush did. For them its ok to support two wars, it's ok to have thousands of troops killed, it's ok to bail out big corporations and wall street, but not ok to provide health care for all americans?!I wish I could've gotten that question right on my ACT tests, oh wait I did get that right!

[Incitatus]

36. That's dangerous. I might mistake them for a carjacker and blow their head off.

[AnArmyVeteran]

37. A guy in a dark pickup forced a car off the road killing a grandmother & 12 year old granddaughter.

Just a few days ago a grandmother driving with her 12 year old granddaughter were forced off the road when a car deliberately sideswiped them. When they swerved to avoid further contact with the other car the grandmother's car flip over several times killing the granddaughter at the scene. The grandmother was lifeflighted to a local trauma hospital where she died.

This happened in a very redneck part of Texas so I'm wondering now if the grandmother's car had an Obama sticker on it. Police are still investigating the crime and have an eyewitness and paint scrapings from the assaulting car. The eyewitness didn't pursue the homicidal driver and instead stopped to help the victims. The murderer drove away totally unconcerned that he just murdered two people.

This story sounds eerily like what irresponsible morons like Palin are provoking. The right wing is willing to commit any violent act to vent their insane rage.

I'm going to check into the above story and find out where the wrecked car was taken so I can view it to see if it had any stickers or decals on it which would trigger a violent response by a right winger.

[G_j]

39. that story needs to be followed up

thank you!
