Gas Pump Stickers (What I'm doing about gas prices)
Taa-DAY | RandallFlagg

Posted on 04/07/2008 6:10:49 AM PDT by RandallFlagg

Well, after posting this picture of a screenshot of a WORD file I made
showing my little stickers, and the responses I've received, I've decided
to make a thread for it.

Now, before someone starts with the, "BOTH parties are to blame!" replies, I know.
However, this is an election year.
We all know that the democrats will NOT make the gas prices any cheaper.
At least our side tries.
As soon as I can find a file host, I'll put a link to the WORD file on this thread.
Also, if anyone reading this can come up with even more good, short and to the point items and factoids to put on these stickers, please post them to this thread for everyone to read and use.


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Government; Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS: 110th; energy; gasoline; gasprices; pelosi

I'm posting this thread due to the large demand. Have a great week.

I don’t really support the idea of a sticker campaign on private property (unless you have the permission of the store owner) but I’ll also point out that the formatting of the paragraph breaks in the above examples could be better. The linebreaks could be better placed to drive some details home.

I do agree with the statements on the first several I read.

And Obama himself is on record thinking that stickering is an effective method of stirring the public to action. He personally thanked Shepherd Fairey for the poster art his campaign commissioned (which has been publicly posted on public and private property with wheatpaste) and said that even when he’s seen Shepherd’s work on “Stop signs” it has “a profound effect on people”.

Handbills can be distributed without causing any “vandalism”.

You remind me of our good governor Sebelius (KS) who worked to get a coalfired power plant killed citing CO2 concerns.

I need to write her a letter asking, in light of her CO2 concerns and Ks’ need for power,

when she’s going to break ground on a new nuke plant.

I wouldn’t call a small sticker “vandalism”.

Points noted.
I also came up with another sticker idea from your post:

“The owners of this fueling station might not complain about these stickers. If more democrats come into power in Washington, and they go with their past history on fossil fuels, more gas stations will be put out of business and their employees will be out of work.”

Thanks.

(As for the formatting, I’m a single Dad of two little Sons and have little free time. I did this on the fly.)

Now let's make SURE we don't put pressure on
Big Government to put a moratorium on the
TAXES on gas at the pump!

And for SURE, let's NOT drill in ANWR !!!

/sarcasm

And you think because it is an election year you have license to tell lies. Boy you would make a good politician from either party.

Tell lies?

He’s just off by a little bit. Oil Industry profit margins are more like 8% across the board. And Microsoft only my a 27.5% profit, not 33%.

Great Link. API has put together some great information documents.

For most of 2007, those oil/gas profits are 8.7%, taxes about double.

Well, forgive me if I refuse to sit on my hands and cry, “We’re screwed,” like Private Hudson in the movie, “Aliens.”
It’s called activism. Limbaugh has a radio show, I have a computer and printer.
There’s a difference between inaccuracies and lies. Lies are intentional deceptions, and there’s none of that here. I used what data I could find at the time.

And remember WE cannot drill offshore in the Gulf but Mexico can and we can buy the oil imported.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

No we can not. And Florida republicans are as much to blame as democrats on that.

But while we can not drill there, Mexico, Cuba, and China are.

Yeah, but we can at least hope that the republicans will do right on this subject in the future.
We KNOW what the democrats will do. They have a history.

150 years of rule by the democrats and republicans. It is time for a change, a change to a conservative party.

You seem to forget Senators Olympia Snowe (R) Maine and Susie Collins (R) Maine. both have never voted for a new refinery, a new oil well, a new nuclear power plant, a new anything that would help, but both support telling me what kind of light bulb I MUST use.

It is not just the democrats it is both the Republicans and the Democrats.
