Knowing the hazards of “road rage,” I recently experienced “parking-lot rage” when confronted by a bumper sticker that read: “I’m a Republican. Not everybody can be on welfare!”
For the person on whose vehicle that appeared: I’m a socially liberal Democrat who’s not spent a single second on welfare.
For those of you on the right whose arch-conservative stance has been allowed to dictate county and city government, nestled as they are in the bosom of the Ronald Reagan Library, who think that bumper stickers are cute and funny and want to know where you can get yours, I proudly pay my taxes, something your respected tea-party people pout about and demonstrate against. How dare you portray me a deadbeat!
I proudly served in the U.S. military, something your recent president and vice president disdained. How dare you question my commitment to this country with your absolutely ignorant bumper stickers! How dare you!

You and every other seminar caller and letter writer under the sun, Bob. Time to get a new lie.
Excuse me, that was your president, Bill Clinton.
And your Present Present Obama who never served as both Presidents Bush did.
Get your spin straight Bobby boy.
All that HOPE AND CHANGE not workin for ya...hummm....
Hey Bob, My bumper sticker did NOT say YOU were or had been or welfare. However you are just as bad, why, you ask. Because you are in favor of giving my tax money away to those that are too lazy=liberal to do something for themselves. You are in favor of the nanny state and want to use my tax dollars to pay for programs that make you feel good and noble.
By the way, how is that HOPE & CHANGE working for ya?
He’s a non-thinking minion, that’s all.

“Phish sucks, Jerry's dead, get a job”
Some Boulder, CO lib scratched her bumper when they scraped it off. Libs aren't really into free speech. Just go to any college campus.
You are spending my money.
That makes you a thief.
Hey, Bob, is everything all about you in your world?
A better one would have read:
I'm a Republican.
Don't blame me for 0!
“He volunteered for Vietnam, but wasn’t activated since the F-102 was an air defense interceptor and had no role in the conflict.”
An old argument, but I guess worth straightening out, one more time:
“George W. Bush’s military service began in 1968 when he enlisted in the Texas Air National Guard after graduating with a bachelor’s degree in history from Yale University. The aircraft he was ultimately trained to fly was the F-102 Delta Dagger, popularly known as “the Deuce.” The F-102 may have been old but was far from useless, and it continued to serve in large numbers with both Air Force and Air National Guard units well into the 1970s. Furthermore, the F-102 was deployed to Vietnam throughout most of the conflict, and the aircraft proved its value early by deterring North Vietnamese pilots from crossing the border to attack the South. Perhaps more importantly, the F-102 and its Air National Guard pilots performed a vital role in defending the continental United States from nuclear attack.” —Aerospaceweb.org
A search on this guy shows that he is a local dumbocrat political activist, with many letters to the local paper. Still trying to get an email addy on him.
scrape off the ones that mention Bush by name and the fag stickers and most of these apply to Obama...

Not our President, Not in our Name
Impeachment is patriotic
Yeah sure, show me evidence. Also, if you disdain being accused of being on welfare, why do you support politicians that want more people on the dole?
Ask yourself how many actual veteran posters (and there are plenty!) on FR give credibility to their thoughts by starting off with "I'm a Vet, and I think..."
That's excellent.
