I got one: 4QX42.

Any other suggestions?

It took a minute but the well deserved snicker response was achieved!

EVERY time some two-bit moron with a blue-collar job and a ponytail who is a brain dead 'progressive' can string enough words together so that it sounds like a semi-coherent anti-Conservative/Republican thought - the press lauds them as genius philosopher-king of the working class enough already!! It is amazing that of all those in the red states - there isn't one who 'works' and can be found as an example of a thoughtful and articulate spokesman. What Barbra Streisand!!!

I saw a disgusting bumper sticker yesterday that was anti-Bush. I won't even repeat it, it was so disgusting.

Came home and did a websearch and found that they had a website and are selling t-shirts, bumper stickers, baseball caps all with the same slogan.

Nor is he a knee-jerk liberal; for example, he said, he supported the military strikes in Afghanistan after Sept. 11.

Holy crap! Can you imagine, in the immediate aftermath of September 11, a New York journalist implying that it was illiberal to support striking back? At the time, bombing the bejesus out of Afghanistan had near-unanimous public support (and anyone who disagreed knew to keep quiet about it in the face of inflamed passions).

What a difference a couple of years makes, eh?

[raloxk]

they make him seem like a moderate to slightly conservative guy. there is a tinge of truth here though, he doesnt liek Kerry. Thus is Kerry wins, I'm predicting a 35-40% approval rating withing 6 months. Should a recession occur, it could well be under 35%. Reagan at his lowest when unemployment nearly hit 11% in 1982, had a 45% approval rating.

Kerry has no base of support, except to hate Bush. If Bush is gone, Kerry has no base of support period. I also suspect that Kerry is detested by his own DEM collegues in the Senate. This little if any base of support in the congress

I like to pull ahead of that kind of nimrod in my jeep with a Bush/Cheney 04 sticker on the back, and then drive real slow for a spell. :D

[KangarooJacqui]

So you reckon I might be onto something with my "Deliver Us from Evil - Vote Conservative" bumper sticker/coffee cup etc idea???

[arasina]

4QX42 Good one!

Notice how the article's author tried to portray the ponytailed construction worker as just a regular guy and used every opportunity to use his "clever" "poetry" that he wanted on the license plate. If the guy who always votes against someone "just sees a bunch of suits" in the current administration, what would he see in a Kerry one? Parisian designer suits worn with flip-flops?

I saw a great bumper sticker -- this is totally off topic except that it is about a bumper sticker -- the other day.

A great ass should be seen and not heard

...he cannot remember the last time that he voted for a candidate, rather than against one.

They hate us. That's all that motivates them, hate. When are we gonna start hearing PSA's asking Democrats to please stop the hate? Their hatred seems to be about the most destructive force in America today. Yet no PSA's. How very sad.

"Noah Lamy"

Am I losing it or are people making up names left and right. What kind of name is "Lamy"? I have been around for a while, and I never heard of that name. Has anyone else? If it is made up, what reasons would a person have to make up this particular name? Any speculation?

So true.

I also noticed that they didn't mention what union or local he belonged to. Tsk, he drives an imported SUV. What solitarity, how good of him to cost another union man his job at Ford or GM.

What a classless maroon.

Yes. I imagine that very soon we will have radio and TV ads "from the AD council and the "Stop Hate Coalition" seeking to have people who suffer from hating those who stand up for and defend the country. NOT.

A pet peeve of mine for a long time has been to see some exposure of the "AD Council" which is clearly lef wing and insidiously tries to instill left wing notions through sureptitious ads.

[olde north church]

Let them run on hate, nothing is more self-destructive + it they hit you first, you can play head bongo with them on the cement!

[veronica]

No man with a ponytail is to be taken seriously. EVER. Ponytail on a man = LOOOOOOOOOOOOSER.

"I basically regard myself as more of a malcontent"

Mee too

[olde north church]

or in Arabic = Don't Blame Me, I Voted Bush!

Lamy was a big rancher in New Mexico during the 1800's. There's a cow-town near Gallup, NM named Lamy.
