Yesterday, I finally saw my first McCain bumper sticker
My friend and I were on the 91 Frwy going from the Los Angeles area to Riverside, CA. The traffic was inching along at one point and a huge white on white Lincoln Town Car pulled up next to us. I looked over at it and the four old women in the car had to be in in their 80s. As the traffic picked up in that lane, the Town Car pulled away and I could see it had a McCain sticker on its butt end. The driver was weaving in the lane, slamming on the brakes and it was pretty clear that she probably should no longer have a driver's license because she was just too old to be driving and she was a danger on the freeway.

Scary watching her ~~ like thinking of McCain being too old to steer our nation.

3. I had a smiliar experience with a Crist bumper sticker, lol.
I watched some kid in a car that was littered with Charlie Crist for Governor stickers weave at high speeds through traffic and then blow through a light that had just turned red.

I console myself with the fact that that jerkoff probably hates Crist now, like most Republicans in Florida. If he didn't wrap his stupid ass around a telephone poll, that is.

4. I saw one the other day on a car that actually had Veteran plates.
How fucked in the head do you have to be to be a veteran willing to sell-out your fellow troops and vote for Insane McCain?

7. Still see those ugly things here in SW PA...
I could puke every time I see one. They're usually on pickup trucks or SUVs.

13. I saw the W'04 one the other day, too....
...butt end of a big Caddie Esplanade (sp?) SUV. Low profile tires, over-sized chrome rims, and every piece of gee-gaw one could put on one of those things.

I just looked at it and said to myself, "If figures...and I bet the fat asshole driving that thing thinks it is a real SUV."

:hi:

6. Well, the 91 rolls through Orange County.
My guess is you were near Tustin.

9. We were near Green River...just outside of Corona.
We were where the 71 comes in and the traffic ties up until you get past the 15. Smooth sailing until that point in the trip.

I am tellin' ya...it was like someone had gone to Central Casting for that car and those four old ladies. Snow white car, all with snow white hair ~~ the fluffy, real thin kind that really old people have...like McCain's.

10. Nice metaphor.
I think that about sums up the candidacy of Gramps McSame: four old ladies in a car.

12. That cannot keep a clear path!
Yep, that is exactly how it hit me. The little old lady riding shot gun had on those kind of really black wrap around shades ~~ like eye doctors give out after eye surgery ~~ and I was wondering if they were going to let her drive at some point!

Looked to me like they were headed out to Sun City...you see a lot of cars and people like that in Sun City and that area. Huge land yacht of a car...and a fluff of snow white hair peeking over the steering wheel. Hemet is like that, too. The best one I ever saw was in Hemet: This little old lady was driving a 1974 Caddie Sedan de Ville and she was soooooo tiny she was not looking over the steering wheel, but under it ~~ and just barely over the dashboard ~~ while steering this behemoth down the street. Needless to say, I gave her a lot of room!
