Something about this story is fishy...the employer is basically stuck because he probably cannot talk about her work record legally. I think that's confidential info. Who's to say, she may have gotten in trouble for the sticker and fired for something totally different. The employer can't really speak about it, can he?

She's the newest poster child for the democratic party and that is fine with me.

She serves at the employer's pleasure. He can fire her for any damned reason he wishes. When you attain that status of employer, make a valid comment. Until then, STFU, jerk.

"The employer doesn't own the woman's car and doesn't own the woman."

You have it backwards...the woman doesn't own the bosses property so she has no right to display political advertising on his property without his permission.

What will she do after Kerry looses? Ooops, guess that was rhetorical - go on unemployment, food stamps, welfare, visit the clinic, section 8 housing etc. All the stuff Kerry says we need, but already exists for less money. They are called "entitlement" programs.

So, she's going to pack cellulose insulation for Kerry? What high-end skills does that require? It's hard not to laugh.

After the elections she has a choice of any number of domestic positions available at a Kerry residence of her choice.

I tell you, the guy is all heart!

But, but, but...

Her supervisor has spoken up in other stories. All she had to do was remove a poltical advertisement from the owners property. She elected not to then becomes the latest media darling for the evils of the right.

"his property"

Again, she ain't and never was his property, niether was her car. The woman was part of the company team until she failed to turn over her 1st amend rights to "the employer" the bankruptcy lawyer.

Not the same at all. My employees can have anything on their cars they want as long as its not obscene. They can also vote for whomever (2 points for kerryism) they want.

You can't run a business that way in my part of the world.

The employer violated her 1st Amend rights

Only the government can do that. However I agree he went overboard in this situation (provided there's nothing more to the story). Fired for having a mild bumper sticker that the boss doesn't agree with? That's loony tunes.

I don't buy it! This feel good damsel in distress story with Kerry as our hero must be a staged setup! I don't believe for a second that this women was fired for having a "Kerry" bumper sticker on her car! She was probably fired for legitimate reasons and concocted up this pathetic story for her 15 minutes of fame. Someone needs to investigate and find out exactly why she was fired!! It just smells really fishy!

Duh. Let's try to make this simply. She parked an auto on the owners property, which he does own, from which she was displaying a political advertisement, ON HIS PROPERTY, that he did not like being display ON HIS PROPERTY.

In my part of the world it's called property rights.

Nobody should get fired for having a political bumper sticker on their car.

Who's to say its true?

Why on Earth would anyone (other than a yellow dog Democrat) even believe that it might be true?

Seems she was a "packer". She'll fit right in with the pack of lies that the sKerry campaign gives out. Maybe she could become their spokesperson.
Has anybody inquired with the employer to confirm that she was fired for being a Kerry supporter? I find it hard to believe that somebody would be foolish enough to fire an employee for this. They'd be inviting a lawsuit. If this is the case, then on November 3rd, John Ewards will be available to represent her.
