There appears to have been a major shift in the last month in the U.S. presidential campaign from KERRY-IN-THE-LEAD to BUSH-IN-THE-LEAD.
And this, before the GOP Convention has really gotten underway.
It seems that Kerry supporters and Bush haters are becoming increasingly strident, stressed, psycopathic and perhaps even violent in some cases. Have you personally noticed this in your town and community?
.....Because of TeRAYyza's very public meltdown, the SwiftBoatVets, Unfit for Command's booming national sales, devastating Swiftee TV ads in battlegrounds states, and the Kerry slip in the polls?
Consider:
--A young Bush campaign supporter was sucker-punched yesterday at a Washington State political event by a Kerry supporter--right on national TV.
--Freepers report Kerry-ite "flip- offs" in traffic(middle finger salutes), increasingly desperate and irate liberal emotions, foul language, verbal abuse when they peacefully display pro-Swift Boat vet or anti-Kerry stickers on their cars.
--The national TV reporters and commentators who side with Kerry seem almost apoplectic on TV these days, babbling, whining, salivating and doing everything short of cursing or throwing ashtrays.
On this FR thread, kindly please related your own personal experience on cases of strange behavior by libs and Kerry supporters that you come across. It would help to know the "what", "when", "where" and "why", too. Perhaps there is a national sickness developing in over in the Hate Bush camp, as they see their lead evaporate and their chances of capturing the White House fade. They seem to have only have nasty, threatening and sometimes violent means to turn to now. Would you agree?
Bump! See my post, same sort of vibe from the lefties. In their harts, they know.
Interesting stories. Read 'em. Man, those guys on the other side are NUTS!!!
Excellent demographic story. Very helpful. Thanks.
I think these reports and vignettes from various Freepers are great and much greater than anything I could read in a paper. Thanks again. They are all of good value!
These are the only stickers I put on my car. Make of it what you will. Screw with me at your own risk. ; )
Last month, I rode a 200 mile bicycle tour. Knowing that many riders tend to swing lib, I thought I'd get in their faces by affixing a 2X3" Bush/Cheney decal to my bike helmet. Surprisingly the only comment I got was an extremely positive one form a conservative on the tour.
I have to admit the "Hate is not a family value" stickers make me mad. So I came up with one that strikes at the heart of liberals. "Tolerance of evil is not a virtue"
Also,I was driving a new, full size, work van full of tools with Mass plates. Right under the license plate I had a "Veterans For Bush" sticker. I've been told by people that have seen me drive, or driven past me that I talk to myself, am hunched over the wheel and with my long, uncombed hair look like a crazy guy. I'm not. Honest. So, maybe that's why I was unmolested by the usual suspects.
Here's what I found: on HALF the Kerry cars, there is a second or third "hate Bush" type sticker. I have only seen ONE (of 53) Bush cars that had any kind of "hate Kerry/hate Libs" sticker.
I have only seen ONE (of 27) cars that had a Kerry sticker also have either an Am. flag sticker, an actual Am flag, or a "Support Our Troops" or "United We Stand" sticker/ribbon.
The next time a Kerrynazi tailgates you... just do what I do.
1) If below 30 mph, put the car into 2nd gear and pop the clutch
1a) if above 30 mph, slow down gradually until you are at 45 mph (the legal minimum speed limit) - if Kerrynazi still tailgaiting behind you, put into 2nd gear and pop the clutch. ("I thought there was a child on the side of the road, and the kid lunged into traffice" will suffice for reasonable cause to slow down)
2) (No brake lights. WHAM)
3) Tell the police officer that the person behind you was also swerving - which made you extra sensetive to the child on the side of the road.... not sure if the tailgaiter was drunk or not.
4) Kerrynazi gets busted for DWI (more likely than not they they just came from a bar), maybe for drugs (kerrynazi's are likely pot heads), kerrynazi might also get a ticket for road rage, and a ticket for "failure to maintain a safe distance"....
5) Go see a good trial attorney and sue.
6) If Kerrynazi gets busted, then he/she is not able to vote in the November election. (if DWI if a felony in your state. It is only a misdemeanor in Texas)
7) After insurance company settles before trial, pick out your new BMW Z-3.
8) Put a SBVFT sticker to the back windshield.
9) Goto step 1.
(to all you DU Kerrynazi's reading this - This is called "satire" - or a bad attempt at humor.
This is not real advice.
W will win reelection regardless of your childish nazi tactics.... and if you take this post seriously, then you are more demented than Michael Moore.... and he's a loon.)
My neighbor has a "Boycott France" bumper sticker on her car. She went to the grocery store, and some dredlocked fool came running up to her yelling something (she was so shocked that this dirty little man was yelling at her that she wasn't listening). He then turned around, ran off, jumping up and down, waving his arms and yelling, "Vive la France! Vive la France! Vive la France!"
Bump for later.
I have to go into Ann Arbor (MI) on Wednesday, one of the most liberal fascist cities in the country.
I've had Bush/Cheney stickers on my minivan for a YEAR now and haven't had any trouble...YET.
Or is THAT why the freak in the Volvo cut me off and flipped me the bird?
If it were my house, they'd already be sitting on the curb.
Had you heard her say it, you could have replied "That's Mrs. Biatch to you."
So much for the 'tolerant' and enlightened ones.
