Dennis Prager just spent an hour discussing why there are way more Kerry bumper stickers on cars than there are Bush bumper stickers. He admitted he doesn't have a bumper sticker on his car because, like so many of us, he didn't want his car to be keyed. Well, at the end of his show he said he'd put a sticker on and take his chances.
Many of us, especially in crazy liberal cities like LA, haven't put our stickers on yet. BUT TODAY I'M GOING TO DO IT!
Over the last three days, I've surveyed stickers in southern OH, (Springboro/Dayton). I counted only those I could clearly read (even when I was pretty sure they were Bush/Cheney, I didn't count them); I counted all "hate Bush" stickers as Kerry stickers; and I did not count American flag stickers, American flags, "United We Stand," or the "ribbons" that say "support our troops." Here is what I got:
22 Bush/Cheney and 9 Kerry.
NO Kerry stickered-car also had an American flag sticker or "United We Stand." (I'm sure that 90% of those stickered cars are Bush voters).
None of the Bush cars had a "hate Kerry" sticker, but 1/3 of the Kerry cars also had "hate-Bush" stickers. (In fact, I've only seen one "anti-kerry" sticker---pretty cute, a North Vietnamese flag with Kerry-Edwards on it).
My sticker is right by my NRA sticker, and my vanity plate is an NRA plate reading "MCMOM" - drives the Million moms mad. I try to park next to MMM or Kerry cars at the mall, pool, work - I know I will be keyed!
At 6'-1", 200lbs, I'd rather confront political bias directly.
Atos
Sorry - I had my car DEEPLY keyed from the hood all the way to the scratched out Bush sticker on the rear bumper.
$1800 worth of love and tolerance at the Atlanta Airport.
Thank you, Dennis, for discussing this on your show. I love how you are willing to change your mind. Nobody wants to have their car(s) damaged by those w/opposing views, but we GOTTA TAKE A STANCE ! I'll be putting a Bush/Cheney sticker on my car as well.
I've had one for two years!
I leave 20 miles east of LALA land and have had my Bush sticker on my truck for about a month. Plus a sign in my window at home.
Isn't that the whole idea of a bumper sticker; proudly showing one's opinion??????
As I said......I'll take my chances. I'm proud of my beliefs.
Touch My Truck And I'll Blow Your $%^$*&% Head Off
bumper sticker. Sorta truth in advertising.
My truck was the target of vandals recently, and I still have some issues to work out.

IMO, that would not be a good idea since we already have SOMEONE who is better than ANYONE. Far better. WE are not desperate (as they are). We have a big positive on our side.
"Because I Love America" rocks!
"JOHN KERRY WOULD MAKE A BETTER FRENCH PRIME MINISTER."
I also have one below that with a small pic of Kerry with his 1968 quote about being an internationalist who'd only send our troops around the globe at the UN's discretion.
I either see people behind me guffawing with glee, or clutching the steering wheel with white knuckles; there are also those who look completely clueless...
I'm thinking about a bumper sticker that says, "Vote security over socialism: George W. Bush." As the election draws hear, I may put a blatant Bush sticker, however, I want to get some of these folks to THINK..maybe that's just impossible, but I'm giving it a try.
I have had mine own for almost a year, I have 2 on and 10 out of 10 terrorist agree anybody but bush. I also have two rally signs taped to the inside of my back windows on my jeep. I plan to get some anti-kerry stickers. I also live in downtown Portland and have yet to be vandalized. So dont be scared Democrats are all talk they just want to intimate us. Also my friend has alot more conservative stickers. He has 3 Bush stickers, Stop Hanoi John Jerry, and Radical Islamic Terrorist are animals that need to be killed.
DONT LAY DOWN TO THE LEFT PUT A STICKER ON YOUR CAR!
She carries a shoulder bag with a number of large buttons on it reading: "IMPEACH BUSH", "MARRIAGE EQUALITY", "ASHCROFT=HITLER", "HEIL BUSH" and my favorite "DO I LOOK STRAIGHT TO YOU?"
I may violate my dress code just once and sit down across from her wearing a Bush/Cheney '04 T-shirt.
The vandals who wrecked your car are pond scum. So typical of the other side of the aisle. Sorry, my liberal friends. It's true. It's SOOOOOO true.
Bummer. What's more chickensh/t than fucking with a man's automobile? I mean, you don't f/k with another man's vehicle. It's just against the rules.
