Guess My Political Views
Okay, a fair and balanced selection of bumper stickers I’d like to see this election cycle:
- Voting Romney? Are You Rich or Stupid?
- Medicare: Don’t Touch My Socialism
- Pay Your Fucking Taxes, MobilExxon!
- Mormon is Fine, Moron is Not!
- Proud to be a Gay Romney Supporter!
- We Want Our Country Back, Corporate Overlords!
- Working People Vote Republican (and Then They’re Out of Work)!
- Hey Scalia: Eat More Saturated Fat!
- Vote Romney: Who Needs Birth Control, Anyway?
- Romney Will Beat Obama (in the Shower After Gym)!
- Mitt is a Shit!
Got any more? Let us hear them!
Was reminded of this by a question put to Wendell Berry here
http://arts.envirolink.org/interviews_and_conversations/WendellBerry.html
about those “I’m spending my children’s inheritance” stickers;perhaps I should steal his words and have some “take what we’ve got and make it better”stickers made up.
Whoever drives that car has b a l l s or hutspa or is just plain misshuggina!
Ha!
Almost any Yiddish phrase would make a good bumper sticker!
My favorite bumper sticker of all time (religion, not politics, but both subjects you aren’t supposed to talk about at the dinner table):
“Militant Agnostic–I don’t know, and you don’t know either!”
Hey Roberts, Scalia, Thomas and Alito: eat more saturated fat.
The last sticker I actually put on my car said” Nuclear War Now!The Church of the Future”
but that was 30 years ago,my wife says our Prius IS a bumper sticker and thus doesn’t need any;she’s got a point.There’s one on the dumpster of the local art collective you’ve probably not seen
Television is to news what bumper stickers are to philosophy. – Richard Nixon
and I didn’t agree with that man much but do find that quote memorable.
My dad used to work for an insurance guy who kept a 1909 Reo in his office and covered it with vintage campaign buttons and bumper stickers. Our family’s favorite was a 1968 button for Richard Nixon — apparently real — that read “Nobody can lick our Dick!”
I’d sure as hell like to see that one brought back. Just because it’s awesome. And because, in a political climate chock full of dicks, it could apply to anyone. 🙂
Just saw one on a big van here: “Obama, Kenya Dig It?”
