Vandalism, attempted break-in and in the end the theft of the car itself. All this after Lars Olsson put a Bush-sticker on the car.

(Dagbladet.no): Wednesday last week Lars Olsson putt his sticker in support of Bush on his Chrysler Voyager: «George W. Bush. Saving your butt whether you like it or not.»

Vandalism

-Already the same day I started to notice the reactions. There was some honking and stuff, Lars says to Dagbladet.no

-Then, Thursday morning I discovered that someone had broken off the window wipers at the rear of the car. I had to fix them, the 33 year old Bush-supporter says. The car was parked over the night in Villaveien in Asker, where he lives. The next morning he was met with new destrictions.

-Someone had tried to enter the vehicle. The handle on the sliding-door on the side was torn off, Lars explains.

Car-theft

Lars fastened the handle with a waier, and the car, with some loose parts but with the Bush-sticker well attached, was as good as new.

-Then, on Friday or Saturday morning someone took off with the car. -Because of the sticker? -Yes, at least that is my theory. I think it would be odd if all these things happen to occur right after I put on the sticker, Lars says.

Bush-admirerer

Lars is self-employed. He runs two web-sites and is a columnist and an innovator, according to himself.

-Why do you admire Bush? He has a strength of character. He does things that are unpopular if he thinks it is right, although it doesn’t pay off politically on the short term, Lars says. -You don’t look especially sad over loosing the car? -No, I understand that this may be a funny story to some. It is impractical to loose the car, but I don’t mind it that much. -If it can lead to more sympathy for Bush in Norway it would be worth it, Lars says.

Asker og Bærum police confirms that the car has been reported stolen. They have no theory about the motive behind the car-theft.

Look very closely at the the spacing of the W's, and especially at the erosion patterns on the left sides of the numbers and letters. Methinks FReeper rlmorel has done a bit of pixel-cloning, doubtless in the interest of discretion.

Great kitty, BTW!

Neither. Just tired of watching ostensible "conservatives" and RINO's piss on people from a country that is supporting us in Afghanistan, and probably in other ways you can't imagine. That attitude is prevalent on these threads.

And spare me the "well, it's not enough" crap. I don't buy into the notion that certain soldiers' lives are cheap, and it's the always next response from the geopolitical "experts" that inflict these threads whenever I point out their mental dwarfism.

And I'll add that these intellectual midgets are always the first to whimper "we don't get enough respect" whenever they feel slighted.

Ok, I see your point. Your post wasn't quite so clear.

I agree with your sentiments re: the Norwegian military. From everything I've read they are hard-chargers and professionals.And I will admit to being surprised to hear that so many Norwegians are anti-Bush. I've always considered Norway one of our closer ideological brothers in Europe.

But I guess ol' Lars might have encountered a similar fate, had his Chrysler been in SF or Madison, WI.

Reminds me of my son's tire slashing because he had a "Veterans for Bush" bumper sticker on his car.

Good to know that at least ONE Scandinavian 'gets it' about our intrepid, courageous President.

Thanks for the ping, Deb! (I love driving my 'Bushmobile' on campus too. LOL!)

Living in Middle Tennessee, I don't see many lefty bumper stickers.

In the parking lot at Krogers recently, I saw a couple of women emerging from a car with a sticker that read: Blue in a red state. I didn't do it on purpose, but I laughed in the women's faces as I walked past them. It was just a spontaneous reaction to their bumper sticker. Bless their hearts.

Leftists are cowards. They'll attack you when it's dark, they'll stab in you in the back and they'll call you names anonymously.

Confront one face-to-face and they'll run and hide behind mommy's skirt.

The world is indeed a strange place. His bumper sticker "«George W. Bush. Saving your butt whether you like it or not.» ", may be overly optimistic.

After all, Bush has failed in his quest to bring freedom and democracy to the Middle east. Of course it isn't his fault that Muslims are too culturally primitive to embrace freedom and democracy, instead choosing to further enslave themselves. At least he is trying. Bush's only mistake was that he gave Muslims credit for being rational, civilized, human beings when, in fact, there has never been any evidence that they are.

In contrast the Bush haters have no solutions for Islamic terrorism and apparently, would meekly bow their heads for the Muslim butchers to hack off. Stupid socialist pigs. They will be the first to die when, in a few years, Muslims out number native Europeans and the final Jihad against western civilization is waged.

"Are you compulsively perverse, or compulsively stupid? Or both?"

People who judge people solely by where they come from are certifiably stupid. Does that help?
