United States follows through on their promiss unlike you know who?

[null and void]

Everyone recognizes the slogan of the left (Give Peace a Chance), so I like the one that says

"GIVE TERRORISM A CHANCE, LEAVE IRAQ"

All we are saying is
give terror a chance

[null and void]

Envision a world
without Jihad

[null and void]

[X] Fight there
[ ] Fight here

(Maybe with a purple finger graphic?)

“In case you’ve forgotten, the TERRORISTS are the enemy.”

Perhaps a thread with down loadable stickers that anyone could print on bumper sticker stock at home?

Well, if Jim and FR want to put up the 25k-100k that will be necessary to fund this thing...but I dount it. I think my company may be willing to front the money, but I haven’t thought about putting an endorsement on them.

Or, the top slogans (and designs to go with them) could just be sold via something like CafePress (with little to no markup) -- no startup costs, and individuals could buy and distribute as many as they like without having to have a centralized, organized effort.

Any profits could be earmarked for an appropriate cause.

Victory in Iraq

Because liberal bias reporters are not sober enough to report the truth

I like the idea of adding the “X”.

[Bob J]

Not a bad idea....

CafePress doesn’t operate without a large markup. I like the idea of setting up a down-loadable system...it eliminates the costly PO charges. You could suggest printing programs that would do it at home, maybe there are a few free programs out there for people. Add a link to buy BS stock somewhere.

The problem is anything printed at home is going to wash away the fist time it rains unless after printing one apply a vinyl cover to them.

I don’t think people are reading the part about not making this a political statement either for Bush or against the dems...heheh.

It comes down to scale and cost... if you have people ordering very small quantities, something like CafePress (and that site is used just as an example, I have no experience or stake with them), you're looking at $2.99 base cost, say $0.01 "store markup", for $3.00 per sticker, plus $0.75 shipping for the first and $0.15 for each thereafter. The other advantage to something like CafePress is that the same designs could be placed on other products as well (t-shirts, mugs, buttons, etc.). The "store" would make $0.01 per sticker, plus potentially some volume bonuses, that would be donated to a specified cause.

For larger runs (10 or more), sending the artwork to someplace like makestickers.com (using Google's #1 hit for "custom bumper sticker") makes more sense. It's $4.95 for one sticker; but $2.70/each for 10 stickers, $0.90/each for 100 -- all shipping included. This is a much better option for someone who wants to get a whole bunch to distribute.

I don't think print-at-home is a very good option. By the time you factor in the cost for ink, stock, and vinyl covers, I doubt you'll save much (if anything) over professional printing.

From John Lennons song Imagine

Imagine there’s no terrorism
It’s easy if you try
No suicide bombs below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

"“Yes,...I think? One group is the Republicans and the other group is called the Terrorists.”"

Kids are so honest eh? :)

"Redeploy" = SURRENDER!

My 2 cents. ;-)

Another idea is to simply transmit an attitude or idea about the issue without necessarily mentioning the issue itself. This could work if you're thinking along the line, as you suggested, of a series of stickers that have a similar and identifiable look. Something like:

Stiffen Up, America!

or, with frustration...

Fer Chrissake, Stiffen Up!

Of course that particular message might be misinterpreted, in various ways, but you get the idea.

or...

They're Willing To See It Through; Are You?
