Just damn.

Doug, I thought the plate was "F W" not "F Dubya."
Here is the Ontario vanity plate policy.
You may purchase a personalized plate for a passenger vehicle, commercial vehicle or motorcycle. Passenger and commercial plates may have two to eight characters. Motorcycles may have two to five characters.
Any combination of letters and numbers may be reserved provided the following has not occurred:
* the combination of letters/numbers you selected has been issued, or
* your plate choice has been rejected.
Once reserved, your plate must still pass a review committee, which may reject the plate if it is considered to be objectionable, for example:
* derogatory
* profane
* racist
* sexual
* religious.
I know they also check the proposed plate in a mirror because some look innocent when looking at them directly but suddenly take on a new meaning once seen in a rearview mirror.
I thought personalized plates were not supposed to have profanities on it.
Just damn.

What's really funny is the guy claiming to be 'Phil the owner' was probably lying. Unless he could give the make, model and color of the Volvo it was probably just a caller going for his 15 minutes.
This is all such a waste of time. Let the guy have his plate and look the fool. Spend the time registering new voters or making calls for Bush than writing letters about something that you heard on the radio that is probably not true.
"Monica liberal's Volvo"
I thought Monica's liberal volvo preferred cigars.
Heck I have it on first hand knowledge they would not take 4Q DEMS
Is there such a thing as "bad publicity" in politics? I would guess that seeing the plate A: tells us something about the owner, and B: causes viewers to lean more towards Bush.
Screw it. I went right to the governor's office. Somebody in the DMV allowed this, let's find out who he is.
Why did they even allow it in the first place?
DUmmies???
F Dubya. Big, fat, hairy deal.
Thanks dfu! I'm from West L.A. which is close enough;-)
Here'z mine:
DMV Registration
Attn: Headquarters
P.O. Box 942869
Sacramento, CA 94269
To Whom It May Concern:
The DMV has issued a vanity license plate that reads “F DUBYA”. I thought that California did not issue offensive vanity plates.
This plate is vulgar and offensive in the extreme.
Dubya is the very popular kick name of our President, George W. Bush. The letter “F”, pronounced “eff”, is common slang for the word “f**k”. So the message on this vanity plate is: “F**k President Bush”.
This vanity plate must be revoked immediately.
Thank you,

Police received an anonymous tip in August that a child was locked in the trunk of her Volvo. A dog was in the car's passenger seat when officer's arrived. Officers found a sleeping bag, pillow and car battery were in the trunk, NBC 7/39 reported. The boy told police he had been put in the trunk about 10 other times.
Volvo Drivers
