Update: ‘Sticky Note Campaign’ Gains Momentum
The Blaze ^ | April 29 2011 | Meredith Jessup

Posted on 05/01/2011 5:26:20 PM PDT by Falcon28

Since I first reported on the so-called “sticky note campaign,” it has more than doubled in size, now capturing the attention of more than 8,000 people on Facebook alone. Most noticeably, the campaign’s sticky notes are now popping up in locations across the country. (Click here to see more pics)

North Carolina debates putting gas in the car vs. buying groceries:

Colorado struggles at the pump:

And one of my favs so far popped up in Michigan to ask, “Who is John Galt?”:

I don’t know who started this campaign or what their ultimate motive was, but the conservative blogosphere is spreading the word and setting some ground rules. I’m quickly becoming a fan of this campaign for a few key reasons:

1. It silently makes a statement while not being destructive/obstructive;

2. It’s el cheapo; and

3. Anyone can do it.

Have you seen any sticky notes popping up in your neighborhood? What do you think about the “sticky note campaign”? Email me at mjessup@theblaze.com with your thoughts!

Oh, man, I am LOVING this idea...............!

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

I must be missing something but I fail to see how a bunch of sticky notes BO/BS is never going to see will influence in the least considering he has no problem violating the Constitution left and right!

You need to go after him where it hurts. Apply the Constitution to his illegally occupying the Oval Office. He's feeling the heat to the point where he desperately arranged a press conference. That is the strategy to take. He'll only laugh at sticky notes.

Hmmmm. I have a pad of Post-It notes right here in my desk caddy. Now, where's my black marker...........

I've seen some at a gas station near here. They are a very effective means of political action at a local level. Every person who sees one realizes that somebody else felt the need to express their dissatisfaction with the current situation.

They are just the kind of tactic that bypasses a biased media and weak willed politicians.

I don’t disagree, but we need to fight 0bama wherever we can. We hit him high; we hit him low. If our vaunted “leaders” won’t fight 0bama from their end, we’ll have to do it however we can. Plus, it may shock some people to know that there are a LOT of us that do not support him. If I came across an anti-0bama sticker it would make my day! I say if it takes death by a thousand cuts let mine be one of them!!

A better idea for the sticky notes is to write a message about BO/BS illegally occupying the Oval Office because he is not a natural born citizen!

This is a type of “guerrilla warfare” against Odumbo that REMINDS those idiots who voted for against freedom that they voted against themselves. This warfare is essential to get past the the democrat-media complex and marxists that we are fighting to expose the truth about this depression and the destruction of the greatest economy the world has ever seen. This reminder, at the “point of pain”, lets America know that Obama is the problem and freedom is the solution.

“I must be missing something but I fail to see how a bunch of sticky notes BO/BS is never going to see will influence in the least considering he has no problem violating the Constitution left and right!”

The purpose of the notes are to make voters think about how Obama’s policies are hurting them. These are campaign notes directed at the voters who will be deciding whether to re-elect Obama in 2012. They are not directed at Obama. He’s a dyed-in-the-wool communist and nothing will change him, whih is why it is essential that he not be re-elected.

Give it up. The only way Obama is leaving the White House is after the 2012 election. Fomenting a link between Obama and the economy where the people shop is a brilliant idea. People care about their wallets.

The election starts heating up this year. Let’s fight the next battle.

The sticky note campaign is just one more tool to wake the sheeple.
