Wash your bumper off
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | Saturday, March 12, 2005 | Christopher Flickinger

Posted on 03/12/2005 11:28:18 AM PST by Willie Green

Still have a 'Kerry/Edwards' sticker on your car? Get over it!

For the love of God, please remove those "Kerry/Edwards" bumper stickers from your cars and trucks!

In case you didn't get the memo, your side lost. It's like you're walking around with a big "L" on your forehead -- Loser!

I'm not sure why you still have that sticker on your bumper. Maybe it's been too cold outside for you to remove it. Maybe your post-election depression is so deep you can't bring yourself to take it off. Maybe you're living in denial. Maybe you've been too busy spreading lies and rumors about the future of Social Security and judicial nominations that you haven't had enough time to get it off your vehicle.

Or maybe it's even worse than I thought....

I do my part to remind the owners of vehicles with Kerry stickers that they should remove em; I point, yell loser, and start laughing. Then I receive an elbow in the side from my wife and an admonishment to be nice.

I spent last week in South Carolina and I saw more Kerry stickers down there than I saw in Massachusetts even during the election season. What gives?

Ha! There was a car in front of me the other day at a stop light. 1990-ish Ford Escort. The only thing holding it together was rust. It was spewing clouds of black, oily exhaust. And on the bumper? "Dirt Lovng Tree Hugger," a Kerry-Edwards sticker, a Tammy Baldwin sticker, a Feingold sticker, "Save Mother Earth" bumper sticker and one of those old green triangle stickers symbolizing "Ecology Above All."

There was an adult male behind the wheel, not some teen like this was his first beater car.

People in the 'Frisco Bay Area really need to read this.

It's almost as good as the "NO BLOOD FOR OIL" sticker I saw here in the window of a huge Chevy Suburban. Honest!

Heck, we have dim-bulbs up here with their Wellstone stickers, still. Usually on a Volvo or Saab.

Besides rear-ending them?

I also did a Google search, and by coincidence came up with this funny story by a Kerry supporter who unintentionally removed his bumper sticker:

"I used duct tape to cover up my Kerry bumper sticker because I was doing volunteer work for a non-partisan group on election day. When I stripped off the duct tape this morning, it took the bumper sticker with it, leaving just a couple of very small spots of adhesive which I scraped off with my fingernail.

"You should cover the bumper sticker completely, folding over the ends so they don't stick. Then slowly pull it off, starting at either end. It may help if you leave the duct tape on for a while. I had it on for 24 hours."

I tape them to the inside of my rear window.

I NEVER put bumper stickers on my bumpers. And If I have to have a window or windshield decal, I carefully put clear plastic on all but the outer 1/8", then tape it onto the inside with 1/4" width tape.

My cars always look like they just came off the showroom floor as long as I own them. Even my previous beloved car (lost to a rear-end collission) after 120K miles looked like it was brand new.

Hardened criminals must also enjoy seeing who still proudly sports the sign of the jackass(es). Thugs can immediately identify which citizens don't own a gun and won't hold them responsible for their actions.

oooOOOooo!
