Election Season Bumper Sticker Report: Let's Go Crazy

proud%20to%20be%20a%20democrat.jpg

Dear automobile driver/registered Democrat,

We heart you.

Love,
us

We found this over at Nature abhors a vacuum, and we couldn't be more tickled. This is usually the kind of image that enrages both the counter-culture neo-conservative warriors of the Bay Area and the appalling politics-is-like-a-game-of-chess bullshit spouting elite. But, you see, this driver knows what time it is: just stick a democrat in the White House, because at this point, any of those bitches will do nicely, they seem to be saying. Angrily. And for that, we love this shot.

Or perhaps it's the possibly pro-Jane Austen license plate frame.

If I owned a car, it's bumper would like this. Any democrat will do.

Dear Volvo driver, we don't heart you. We feel that expressing your political views through bumper stickers is annoying. And please have your car serviced, despite your obvious left leanings you are poluting the fuck out of our morning dog walk and we are frightened by your out of control salt and pepper Jew fro and your bad teeth. We're sorry your husband left you for a younger woman, but please, get a hold of yourself and stop wearing sweatpants out in public.

what part of "hillary voted for the war" don't you people understand? any one with half a brain knew the war was a horrible, horrible mistake from the beginning.

if hillary does have half a brain, she knew the war was a horrible idea too and she voted it for it purely for political expediency -- which means she'd make a terrible president. if she doesn't, in fact, have half a brain, then she'd make a terrible president. no matter what, hillary makes a terrible president!

i don't think obama or edwards are much better, but hillary does NOT deserve your vote. ANY fool or voted for the war must be held accountable or our democracy is worth nothing.

you're just mad because hillary is on top.

"Hillary on top" is creating nightmarish images in my mind.

hillary = corporate america. i honestly wish it weren't so, but sadly it is.

she's close friends with rupert murdoch for godsake

Brock, I misread your post as "you're just mad because hillary is a top" and I was about to respond "How do you know this?"

The stickers should have been on the left side of the car!

Hilary on top, Barack on the bottom, and John Edwards right in the middle. Now that's kinky!

Warsux: if you voted for Ralph Nader, everything that has happened in the last 8 years is your fault. Everything.

Nader drives a bumper sticker laden electric go kart in hell.

Not unless s/he voted in Florida. CA, in case you forgot, was a very solid blue state in 2000.

To quote Jon Stewart's brilliant tome America: "Ralph Nader was second only to Al Gore for costing Al Gore the election."

Thanks, but I'm gonna stay with my "Republicans for Voldemort" bumper sticker for now.

jnice and for the rest of you who missed it the first time.

hillary voted for the war.

are you blaming that on ralph nader?

How exactly is Hillary's vote for the war, which was going to pass anyway, significant, whereas a vote for Nader in California, where he was going to lose anyway, not?

If you are going to oversimplify American politics, you might as well be consistent about it.

I cast my absentee ballot this morning and Hillary's name was not checked off.

Forget her Iraq vote, which is bad enough, it's her vote on IRAN that scares the shit out of me, since it shows she's a pandering f**tard who can't learn from her mistakes.

Either that or she doesn't think they're mistakes.

And really, being for "any Democrat" in the US in 2008 is a political stand on par with "Air...let's breathe it!"

jnice, let me get this straight. are you saying it doesn't matter how an elected official votes? i'm not sure you quite understand how this whole representative democracy thing works.

If you are going to oversimplify American politics, you might as well be consistent about it.
I'm not sure if this remark was directed at me or at warsux, but um, you just blamed the entire last 8 years on Ralph Fricking Nader... and you're accusing me/us of "oversimplifying American politics"?

yes, but I am consistently oversimplifying.

and here is the crux of it: ideology kills people dead

"ideology kills people dead."


agreed.

Now that's a three way I could get behind.

Only in a totally non-sexual way, of course.

*shuddering at the thought of sex with any of them*

Dammit, why did you have to let them out of the No-Nookie Zone? Ugh.

Hopefully they get a permanent parking pass once City College gives them tenure.

A system of ideas = death?

SFist commentors, it's the Logic Police here. Do you have any idea how badly you were weaving just then?

I'm sure you guys meant something like "dogmatic adherence to ideology can lead to intellectual bankruptcy, which in turn can lead to some very poor decisions" blah, blah, blah.

Cuz blanket antipathy towards ideology qua politics is, paradoxically, kind of a doctrinaire position to take, kindasortadontchyathink?

Sometimes our ideas about the world end up fitting into a pattern. Like say, our opinions on the legitimacy of torture or wiretapping or electoral fraud.

Or, (and I'm just pulling an example out of the air here) the decision to go to war in Iraq during the summer of 2003. Some of us were loudly against it (see Obama, Barack) and some of us were not (see Edwards, Clinton).

That's why this pic is too cute by half. A choice for all three means no choice at all. They can't all be right; which is why we have primaries.

So pick a side, wussies.

careful officer logic....if you start trying to apply logic to blog comments you may find yourselves with a crime wave on your hands :-)

Personally I'm amazed at how many blah candidates are running in all the parties (and yes, even the Greens, hell ESPECIALLY the greens and all their sanctimonious bs) but given how low the bar has been set after 8 years of Clnton and 8 years of Bush, I can't imagine many of 'em doing any worse.

Well, actually I can, I just choose not to.

Wait, you mean the Green Party still exists, let alone is worth being frustrated at?
