When Kerry wins - should I remove my K/E bumper sticker fast?

[AVID]

I've had tailgaters, the finger, spit, mustard, and a speck of luncheon meat flung at my sticker in the last few weeks, but I fear the worse when Kerry wins in 23 days.

[Misunderestimator]

1. No way.... Mine stays.

[blondeatlast]

5. I'm going to leave mine on for a while in order to gloat.

Maybe even until the inauguration.

I don't like stickers on my car, though, so I'll take it off soon after that.

[ronnykmarshall]

18. Same here.

Mine will stay on till 1/20/05.

[3113]

31. What if it gets stolen? Should you prosecute?

This past week my aunt's large K/E sign was stolen. The police called her yesterday and said it was a couple of kids and did she want to press charges against them. They also told her the kids had told police that they were paid $3.00 for every sign they would steal.

Aa far as I am concerned, they person(s) who hired them should go to jail.

[Misunderestimator]

32. Absolutely, she should press charges. ESPECIALLY if they were paid

to do it. I wouldn't waste a minute going after them.

[3113]

36. She is afraid of retaliation...

She is afraid of retaliation if her name/picture is in the news. I asked her why she would be concerned, afterall they are Christians. I won't share with you her response :)

I talked to her today, and she said that the head of the Democratic headquarters who gave her the sign is going to go with her to the police station, and he is going to press charges. They aren't as concerned about the kids, but want to nail those who paid them.

[Misunderestimator]

37. Good... that's great that he's going to go with her.

They really do need to nail those who paid the kids. Really amazing. What values to teach their children. "Here, I'll pay you $3 to commit a crime." Ugh.

[LiberalFighter]

44. Have them charged... they squeal on the person... get reduced sentence

[3113]

50. Exactly. That's the plan

[cheshire]

49. I'm adding a big smiley sticker. LOL

[Rick Myers]

2. We'll need to add a small sticker saying:

GET OVER IT!

:thumbsup:

[Cha]

38. LOL! I'll probably just leave mine

on my old car..that and my "Support The Troops" yellow magnetic ribbons.

[yardwork]

3. Wear the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune with pride

We all have to sacrifice for the cause.

I've never been tailgated so much in my life since I put up my Kerry-Edwards stickers. My response is to slow down more.

[calimary]

27. I had my car keyed because of mine. And I DO wear it as a badge of

honor and courage. My husband wishes I'd park back at the top of the driveway (which is uncomfortably narrow for my tastes) instead of along the curb. I'd rather be out there in defiance. It also makes me want to find some even MORE offensive anti-bush stickers to add to the inside of my back window.

Remember: Look at these acts of vandalism, intimidation, and scare-tactics for what they are: DOMESTIC TERROR. BY DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.

And remind yourself - THIS is the kind of person who supports george bush. THIS is what such a person does. Aren't you DAMNED PROUD you do NOT count yourself among them? I wouldn't want to be part of such a group, or shoulder-to-shoulder with such evil pissants. Note, too, the car-keyers have to do their brave, valiant deeds under cover of night, when nobody's looking, like common criminals (which is what they are, with their vandalism). It's nothing they can proudly do out in the open in the full sunlight where everybody can see, now, is it?

Repeat: bush supporters are DOMESTIC TERRORISTS. bush pals support DOMESTIC TERRORISM. Feelin' safer?

[Oak2004]

39. Wouldn't it be just and appropriate

if our resident bona fide domestic terrorists were actually charged as terrorists under the laws they claim to be supporting?

Not that I expect such a thing to happen as long as their terrorist organization also claims to be the Republican Party.

[alittlelark]

4. I probably will.

Once the decision is made, and Kerry is the winner - what's the point in keeping the sticker on? It just turns me into a target for 'head-exploding' RW nutcases.

[blondeatlast]

8. But if their heads really explode, isn't that a GOOD thing?

:evilgrin:

Except if they are in a vehicle it could cause an accident.

[zulchzulu]

6. Mine stays on until it fades out

The yard sign stays outside until January 20th too.

[Arkana]

47. Not here.

The anti-Dumbya stickers stay. The K/E stickers stay. The yard sign stays. I'm not moving shit, come hell or high water.

[glitch]

7. Add an '08 to it. That should really pop their aneurisms. nt

[blondeatlast]

10. They make Sharpies in blue--great idea! nt

[RamboLiberal]

34. '08 - That's my plan - I'm also thinking of adding a Countdown

for * having to pack his bags for Crawford.

I've taken so much crap in the last 4 years from the koolaid drinkers and their media shills I want to rub it in.

Hell, come to think of it the crap's been for the last 12 years!

And you know these koolaid drinkers will be dissing Kerry and trying to sabotage him the minute he's declared the winner!

[heidiho]

9. I'm Getting Honks with Thumbs Up Signs All of the Time

No way will I take them off - I'm going to be proud to have supporter the winner.

An elderly woman got out of her car yesterday (I was pulling out of a parking lot, asked me to roll down my window and said "I love your bumper stickers" and gave me a five! It was awesome. Last night someone kept honking behind me and when I looked in the R/V mirror, the whole family was giving me the "peace" or Victory sign and waving madly at my stickers.

[AVID]

16. i love little anecdotes like that

I saw two K/E button in line at Subway yesterday. I high-fived the gal (about 27) and had to raise my voice to the old farmer in overalls who had the button stuck on his John Deere trucker hat (not tilted ala ashton). He had an ear-piece (to actually hear) and I greeted him with GO KERRY much to the chagrin of the man behind him.

[ronnykmarshall]

21. I got a great one the other day.

I was stuck in traffic on the 101 and I heard a "HONK", turned to my right and this couple gave me the thumbs up!

I love it.

Even during the rare times I get shit from people I just SMILE and WAVE ..... pisses them off!

[proud patriot]

11. I plan on taking stickers off and adding "Kerry bringing complete

sentences back to the white house"

I forget which DUer linked to that sticker
but I'm getting that one to put on after Kerry wins .

[demokatgurrl]

20. Try cafepress.com for that sticker.

[Mr_Spock]

12. Well, if Bush wins they better collect their stuff up quickly!

So, there may be people who feel the same way on the other side.

[ClassWarrior]

13. Once the election's over it's done its job.

If you'd feel safer, take it off. If you live in an area where it's safer to gloat - like here - by all means, gloat!! I know I will. But you deserve kudos for being brave enough to have one on your car NOW in the face of all that.

23.

[NMDemDist2]

26. yes, I'll probably take mine off 11/3 cuz there's a lot of crazies

around here and it will have done it's job

[benburch]

14. No. Gloat.

Rub some salt in the wounds.

The bastards deserve it.

[watercolors]

15. more and more Kerry stickers

and yard signs are being seen here in Brevard county, Fl! Its a good thing! We notice so many yard signs in our black community. Good for them, I feel we will prevail in getting a huge vote out for Kerry.
My sticker stays, believe me I get lots of thumbs up and honks, I do the same for every one I see.

[shraby]

17. Another idea for a sticker or sign

Kerry doesn't need wires to debate.

[demokatgurrl]

19. Mine stays, win or lose. n/t

[Tom_Foolery]

30. Same here. n/t

[gauguin57]

22. I'll only gloat among my Demo. friends. Not in front of any Pugs.

When Kerry wins, I'm going to be a graceful member of the new party in power. Let the Pugs hurl insults at me, throw lunch meat at my bumper sticker, whatever. I'm just going to be as nice as pie, and ask any Pugs who make comments how we can work together, now, to make this a better country. I'm gonna be so sweet, they ain't gonna be able to STAND it. And that'll show the integrity and the compassion of the Democrats, and the horrible attitude of the Pugs.

[Captain Lance Bass]

23. When he wins Replace it with THIS

[AVID]

24. yeah baby!

[glitch]

25. Thanks for that

Just spewed tea all over my keyboard. Worth it though. :evilgrin:

[Captain Lance Bass]

29. Here's another to use BEFORE he wins

[AntiCoup2K4]

51. I have a feeling Johnny would approve

It made me sick when the 'Pukes tried to claim his support at their 9-11 hypefest last month.

[senseandsensibility]

28. We had a Gore/Lieberman

sign in our front window facing the street during the 2000 election. We left it up long, long after the theft of the election. We also left our bumperstickers on for several months.

[Starlight]

43. I left my Mondale bumper sticker on for 3 years!

Until it finally *wore* off in the car wash. :P

There's no shame in doing the right thing, even if you're in the minority (and you often will be). :)

Mat 7:13-14 "You can enter God's Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose the easy way. But the gateway to life is small, and the road is narrow, and only a few ever find it."

[senseandsensibility]

45. Inspirational

indeed. Beautiful, in fact. I love the scriptures, and forget sometimes that they are so beautiful. I'm not particularly "religious", and I get turned off by *'s brand of Christianity. Then someone like you quotes something like this, and I'm almost in tears. Thanks.

[gulliver]

33. I will. Kerry will unite the country, unlike Junior.

Once Bush is gone, we need to heal.

[seabeyond]

35. i am simply to say done, its done

yup. regardless of who wins, and i feels trongly kerry, i am done nov 3..........

and in the panhandle of texas i have not had a single neg, ok maybe a couple but i always see them in lite and ahsnt hurt me any, but really no issue with sticker, well except the school alienating my kids..............

yup. screw em all

[Dem2theMax]

40. Heck no. In fact, last night I was thinking that WHEN Kerry wins,

Skinner should start selling T-Shirts with the words

"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"

and a nice picture of John Kerry under it. And then we get every Dem in the country to wear these shirts every single day between Nov. 3 and the swearing in ceremony! :evilgrin:

I mean, wouldn't it be fun to take *'s words and use them? ::snicker::

[Warren DeMontague]

41. Right Wing Political Tailgaters are morons.

Because you never know when one of us Kerry supporters may just happen to brake suddenly.

Particularly if we've got an old, beat up car... with a solid back bumper.

Pretty much across the board, if someone rearends you, it's considered their fault.

[LittleClarkie]

42. I can't believe the number of people on either side

who won't actually attach their stickers to the bumper. Some say they don't want to ruin the finish. Others have them in their windows.

That's fine, but I've heard others say they don't want to be stuck with a loser on their bumper if their side doesn't win.

I thought about that rationale, aided by Dido on the radio:
I will go down with this ship
I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love, and always will be.

I got one of the bumper stickers I carry around for others, and stuck that puppy right on the bumper. No more removable window signs for me. I'm a fully attached Kerry Democrat. Hoo-rah!

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

46. I'm in the Dallas area and I'm leaving it on

until it is faded!!!! Do you think a bush supporter would rush to take off their sticker if HE won? I think not!

[BiggJawn]

48. I have one of the early "John Kerry-President" stickers.

When he gets elected, I'm taking a paintstick and adding the word *IS* to it, ie: "John Kerry *IS* President"

And I'm gonna pull alongside any "W'04" stickers I see and point and go "HAH-hah!"

Or maybe, in the spirit of Free Enterprise and Small Busisnesshood, I'll say "Hey! I'll get that embarrassment off your SUV for $20! how 'bout it? nobody need know you supported that buffoon...."
