That's mature.

Sorry, but I have to roll my eyes whenever I see that one - considering it started with Bush (same exact phrase with the date he was leaving office), and the uncreative anti-Obama folks totally copied it. At least be original in your bashing, for goodness sakes! But whatever makes you happy, have a blast.

Personally, I think this one is much funnier: http://patriotdepot.com/product_imag...36644_zoom.jpg

I have no intentions of changing anyone's mind, I just feel proud to show my support - although as I explained in my first post, I mostly just put it there to cover a scratch. But I certainly don't think some Republican is going to see it, and think "I'm voting for Obama now, just because this chick in a Honda supports him!" I mean, really? Despite what some people here think, we're not idiots.

Also, it seems like a lot of people forget to remove them. So you have some dude with a Kerry/Edwards sticker, all faded and torn. Looks kind of pathetic.

That would be sad, but I know how to remove a bumper sticker... it's called Goo Gone and a razor blade.

But thanks to some of the posters here, I am now starting to get a complex about my little sticker. Do people really put that much thought & judgment into them? If so, maybe I'll find something else to cover that scratch! Really didn't think it was such a big deal.

This isn't reserved for liberals, as my friend in Iowa had his Obama sticker vandalized - AND has been harassed multiple times by local cops since putting it on his truck. Guess neither side is very tolerant of opposing viewpoints? I never see Romney/Rep stickers vandalized around here, though, so it could just be a regional thing too.

See above. My friend hadn't been bothered by the police at ALL, until he put on that Obama sticker... "coincidentally," he's been harassed a few times since then.

You'll see TONS of them here, so "janelle" was obviously just trying to be funny... kinda failed, but nice attempt!

No way. I had a Jesus fish scratched into my car after I put a Darwin placard on it. There's no way I would a political one on my car... And I think the stickers that 'bash' the opposition are childish and speak volumes about the person who owns it, regardless of what 'side' you're on.

Are you serious? So some moonbeam koolaid drinking tinfoil hat wearing lunatic who doesn't approve of my choice for candidate can destroy my car?
