"It's about time you guys did something."

Thank you for carrying the standard. The person with the "about time" comment, is the problem. Too many conservatives expect someone else to get out and do the dirty work.
Thanks for being the "plumber" for the rest of us on this occasion.

I got the same reaction at a Bush Cheney stick-a-thon. You stand on a busy street with signs and free bumper stickers. I was asked several times "where have you guys been?"

down here on campus there are an excessive # of sKerry signs and "No Iraq War" signs. I would put out my B/C'04 sign in a heartbeat if i didnt think a brick would be put through my window. its bad enough worrying about my car having B/C stickers on it.

up in clintonville there is a street just north of w. broadway (there is a 5/3 and wendy's on the corner, i cant remember the name) but if you get the chance, go east to indianola on it...every other house has a sign in the front yard, pretty much alternating between the two parties, until you get to this house that has a HUGE banner about supporting "real leaders" B/C and supporting our troops. i just wanted to knock on their door and thank them for having the cajones to put that up! check it out!

You need to rent a room in Ohio or Florida for this election. Don't waste your vote any more--if you have friends in the same boat, Florida residency is insanely easy to establish and completely legal. Think of all the liberal NY snowbirds that vote there instead of in NY state and fubar Florida's conservative voters. Start now.

Honestly, in Florida, lots of people are scared to even put out a sign or put a bumper sticker on their cars. The f'in RATS, even in rural Florida where Bush is king, scrape cars and donut lawns.

If the police were remotely conservative they'd plaster Bush stickers on cars and lurk in mall lots waiting for the little shits, and get them on civil rights violations instead of minor vandalism charges. I'm sick of seeing their goonish behavior go unpunished.

NEWSWEEK reports that President Bush, appearing before a right-to-life rally in Tampa, Florida on June 17, stated: 'We must always remember that all human beings begin life as a feces. A feces is a living being in the eyes of God, who has endowed that feces with all of the rights and God-given blessings of any other human being.'

The audience listened in disbelief as the President repeated his error at least a dozen times, before realizing that he had used the word 'feces' when he meant to say 'fetus'.

I received the above mass mailing from a well popular musician. I hit my 'reply all' button and send a brief note and a couple of sourced links proving the story was an urban legend.

Now this guy's entire mailing list know that the sender is not a credible source.

Nice work.

Good one!! ;^D

In Upper Arlington, Ohio, the Kerry signs on the front lawns, outnumber Bush signs by 20 to 1.

I went down to Bush HQ in the brewery district to complain. They told me they were not allowed to mass produce yard signs until after the convention. If you can't find a number for HQ in the phone book, I can freepmail it to you if you want to volunteer.

[cowboy_code]

Yes, this was true. [The named have been changed to protect the innocent.....appologies to Dragnet.]
I had a new name for the Kerry/Edwards booth. When I went by I just yelled out, "Welcome to Never, Neverland."
We all know that Kerry is in his own fantasy world.

[staytrue]

I expect the Kerry people to be out on Sat. Sept. 3 at gallery hop and the greek festival.

I will be there too. Anyone want to join me ?

[SuziQ]

YOU did it! That's who SHOULD be doing it! You and all those folks wondering why the Bush campaign isn't doing something.

We don't need to wait for the 'Bush Campaign' to do it! They can't be everywhere, and don't know the opportunities we can identify in our own hometowns! WE ARE the Bush Campaign! We need to be his foot soldiers out here in the hustings!!

They live in UA in Columbus, and had been dismayed to see a few Kerry bumperstickers in the area.

I drive through UA three or four times a week and see a load of "UA For Kerry" signs. That disturbs me.

[buccaneer81]

The Franklin County GOP has left us out to hang in the wind.

**"It is about time you guys did something" ***

Why "you guys" ?? Why not THAT "Bush supporter" ??

YOU showed initiative, but why does that "Bush supporter" assume it's up to some one else ??

[LisaMalia]

They told me they were not allowed to mass produce yard signs until after the convention

That's what our local county HQ told us as well. But now all bet's are off, so we need to get the Bush/Cheney signs out there NOW!

[EDINVA]

for the next Old Town event .. call Bush's National HQ in Arlington beforehand and set up your OWN table

[GWfan]

Once you get the B/C signs up, beware that the rats will knock them over, post theirs in front, or simply take them. They did it here all over town in 2000, private property did not stop them.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
