Bumper sticker - bad idea?

richard schumacher · 07-27-2008, 11:07 AM

My GF decided to risk "Republicans for Voldemort" on her Civic, thinking that anyone who understood it would be unlikely to key her. So far, so good... having had a previous car keyed for no obvious reason I haven't put anything political on my beloved.

My neighbor bought a new car six months after the 2004 election and put a fresh "Kerry" bumper sticker on it.

My choice in automobiles has nothing to do with my political views at all.

It just gets good MPG.

X2. Get's good fuel economy which helps keep a bit of money out of the hands of countries that HATE Americans... and at the same time it's cleaner for the environment. It's a win win.

While that may be true of your choice, I guarantee you that you are being evaluated for your choice in political terms by at least some folks out there. My co-workers refer to me as a "tree-hugger" (jokingly, I think), although I know at least some of them agree it makes total sense to own such a car.

Sometimes I wish I could scream out that NOT ALL PRIUS DRIVERS LIKE OBAMA. Not saying I will vote McCain, but Obama was (change!) by no means my first choice for candidate. Obama, yuck!

My car is for myself and family, better savings, the environment, getting away from foreign oil dependancy, getting away from oil in general, etc. It does not define the party that I vote for.

Do you still see a lot of those in Texas? I think I saw one here in the Bay Area the other day... I was astonished. It was like discovering a Nazi in Tel Aviv!

Not too much in my area, GW was not a popular person in South Texas.

I have lived long enough now to realize that someone always dislikes the sitting President. You can go back to Kennedy and before or forward to President Bush and find those that think that person was the worst ever.

In my view Demoncrats have the most 'worst ever' types. Repubs are right up there tho.

Truth is we Americans tend to blame the President for our own failings.

Word.
