Look out for your SUVs repugs.

[malmapus]

I stopped by local recruiting station this morning, mentioned that I'm prior service and felt it my duty to help them reach recruiting goals by spreading the word, upon hearing about the shortage.

So now I'm armed with a stack of brocheres, and WILL be driving around parking lots when I get off work. So if I see any form of "W", "Bush / Cheney" or any other supporting sticker on a vechile...you will have something waiting under your windshield wiper for you when you get back out.

1. Good job!

:applause:

[Oreo]

2. Classic!

Brilliant idea!

[cdb]

3. Nice!!

Excellent idea, and one whose time is long since due.

[smoogatz]

4. Go cat go!

Nominated.

[Maraya1969]

5. HEHEHEHEHE

Great idea. :applause:

[ihaveaquestion]

6. Great Idea!

Sign 'em up and ship 'em out!

[ComerPerro]

7. Outstanding! Great work!

[Nite Owl]

8. Good idea!

Can forms be downloaded on the internet anywhere. I really don't want to go near an office.

[malmapus]

13. I think so, might have to check it out if I run out lol

It was a spur of the moment thing, I was coming into work..saw a sticker..got pissed..realized I pass a recruiting station and BAM that lil light bulb went off hehe.

[flygal]

9. Excellent!

[Lorien]

10. Excellent!

I hope you meet a few of them face to face; they'll give you that BS line of "oh well, I pay my taxes"-yeah, right-the same taxes they whine about and protect the rich from! Time to put up or shut up, repugs.

[Bethany Rockafella]

11. LOL! Good for you!

[xultar]

12. GrrrrrrrrrrrrrEAT! n/t

[carnie_sf]

14. All SUVs

should be targeted regardless, since we're actually fighting for those people to drive those ugly gas guzzling behemoths.

[magellan]

60. That's fine

I'm as capable of tearing up those forms as any Rethug is. And I won't even litter.

Personally, I'm adopting this idea for ANY vehicle sporting a pro-Bush** sticker. Guess I'm just too liberal to believe that, oh, an '04 Ford Taurus with a "W" on it that gets 19/26mpg and does 50 miles a day RT commute is any less deserving of black & white "gas guzzler" contempt than my '96 Jeep with a DU sticker that gets 17/21mpg and leaves the driveway maybe four times a week for local driving.

[Deja Q]

15. Awesome!

Mind if I do the same? The walking makes for good exercise too. :-)

[movie_girl99]

16. someone posted a similar thread yesterday and had a link

to a down loadable pdf form. I saved the pdf but don't know how to get it here. please advise.

[malmapus]

20. man been lookin all over goarmy.com but can't find em

actually I have a piss poor printer anyway, I wouldn't do my country a service by not giving away the best quality brocheres.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

21. Voila!

[leveymg]

28. Got it - Thanks!

Time to go do my bit at the local Wall*Mart parking lot for G*d and Country and Exxon-Mobil profit margins!

:+ :patriot: :dunce: :evilgrin:

[converted_democrat]

17. Yes!!!!!!! How clever!!!!!

[jasmeel]

18. Perfect response! n/t

[City Lights]

19. Cool!

:yourock:

[BeHereNow]

22. The fucking hypocrite arm chair warriors

NEED to enlist- NOW.
If I see anyone with one of those fucking magnets,
I tell them the best way to support the troops is
to get their ass to Iraq and SERVE with the troops
they "support."
They make me SO SICK!
Such hypocrites, they are!
BHN

[malmapus]

24. If they want to support our military and this war, about every unit

has a support batallion , company. They can sign up and be a cook, signal corp, administration, or whatever.

Its time to put up or shut up if they support this administration / war enough to proudly drive with that crap on their vechiles.

[BeHereNow]

29. Amen Brother!

That's what I'm talking about.
Stupid fucking flag waving ignorant
arrogant smug ass holes.
GIT YOUR FUCKING ASSES TO IRAQ!
So we don't have to look at you anymore
and the REAL soldiers can come home.
That's how I support the troops.
Bring them home and ship the
Fundie Bushbots over to fight their
illegal and unjust war.

BHN

[Tux]

23. LOL

Got to love our service men and women. :patriot: :patriot: Have fun and make sure those freepers who are real Americans sign up to defend the nation they love so much.

[ElectroPrincess]

25. Too Cool!

Great plan and follow-through malmapus. I plan on following suit as I'm also a vet and there's a recruiting office nearby. Yep, my flyers will be only for hummers, tank sized SUVs and those donning Pro-Bush stickers. "How many Iraqi's-per-gallon do your gas hogs get?"

Thanks for the idea. :-)

[malmapus]

26. oooo hummers didn't think..if they want to feel like they're in the

service by dirving those things, then they can drive the real deal and not some wussie civilian version with comforts.

I still don't understand how hummers made it to the civilian market like they did. I hated driving those things when I was in, espicially in convoys on the road. I over compensated and was always goin off the road a little. Dang things were just too wide for the lane lol.

EDIT which is weird cause the few times I got to drive a duece n half or 5 ton truck I never had that problem just with dang humvees.

[katinmn]

27. Beautiful idea! If anyone has a link for recruiting materials or

ads, please provide a link.

I'll gladly distribute to the Pro-War crowd.

[eek]

30. YAY! I wanted to do something like this but didn't have the stones

to go into our Local.

(I rilly rilly don't look soldiery and have a lousy poker face)

hats off!!!

[wicket]

31. That's AWESOME!

:yourock:

[Czolgosz]

32. You should also leave them at Young Conservative meetings and private

high schools where only the wealthy can afford to send their children. Whenever some pro-war, jingoistic, right-wing nutjob speaks at a college campus (like Anne Coulter did recently at the University of Texas), we ought to make sure that all the members of all the sponsoring organizations are invited to sigh up. Too funny.

[drm604]

34. Sign up for conservative meetups then attend with a stack of forms.

Play it straight like you're a serious supporter. Tell them you'll drop off their filled in forms at the local recruiting office. See how many start hemming and hawing and making excuses when you try to pass them out.

[malmapus]

35. HAH! I like that one

Have always avoided those things cause I don't even have the stomach to put up with the filth that gets spewed. But might be able to suck it up since I'd be performing a duty to my country.

[drm604]

36. Even better, let the real recruiters do it for us.

Contact recruiting offices tell them about Meetup.com and suggest to them that Republican and other conservative meetups might be a good place to recruit and that they should signup and attend the meetups. They're desperate to meet their goals so they just might try it.

[drm604]

65. Kick

:kick:

[drm604]

33. You should include some kind of flyer so they get the point.

It should say something like "I see from your bumper that you claim to support W and his war. Now prove it by using the attached form or passing it on to a family member if you're ineligible." I'm sure it could be worded better but you get the general idea.

[Bouncy Ball]

37. You know what?

You've inspired me.

There's an Army recruiting station around the corner and a Marine one several blocks away and the guys in both of those places are bored silly.

I'll have to drop by, chat 'em up a bit, and get some forms. I'm sure they'd be more than happy!

[Stinky The Clown]

38. Absolutely a stroke of genius!

Of course, you'd be more likley to get actual recruits if you went to Dem cars. Everyone knows Dems do what's right (not saying The War in Iraq® is the 'right' thing .... no, no, no). Dems serve when the call is righteous. Repugs run. They get anal cysts. They have Daddy pull a few strings. They get college deferments. They find other priorities. They suddenly flatten their feet.

[Danmel]

39. What a great idea!

Bet none of them sign up- they'll just stick magnets on their trucks and let other people get killed and maimed.

[MissMarple]

40. Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

And so simple.

[RedEarth]

41. lol.....that's great....i hope they all get drafted and decide to move

permanently to the middle east.

[RubyDuby in GA]

42. Just this morning, while driving in to work,

I saw a van that had two identical bumperstickers in its back window. They said "I'll Fight for Freedom". Well, since traffic was crawling (love that Atlanta traffic), I scrawled on a big piece of paper I had in the car a note to them and held it up in my window - "If you'll fight for freedom, why aren't you in Iraq????"

They shot me a bird. I just asked an honest question. Hmm... freepers. Truth hurts.

[drm604]

43. Kick

:kick:

[DearAbby]

44. What an excellent idea!

[huskerlaw]

45. I'm printing off a stack

to keep in my car for those occasions where a Repub-mobile pisses me off. I live in Nebraska...it's gonna be a large stack. :evilgrin:

[malmapus]

46. Well mission accomplished for today

Got rid of my stack, only had one encounter but I told them I was doing what their bumper sticker said and supporting the troops by making sure there was enough over there.

Might have to make this a regular thing, cause I didn't nearly get enough.

[Selatius]

47. This thread made my day. Thank you!

[alexisfree]

48. ahhahahahahhahahahahah that is just perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kenny blankenship]

49. Hell Yeah!

Spread that word!

[blondeatlast]

50. I like it, but fake draft notices would have been more fun still! nt

[womanofthehills]

51. Good for you - I sticker cars with photos of injured vets

I printed some photos of severely injured soldiers on ink jet bumper sticker paper - printed them the size of playing cards and I keep them in my pocket. When I see a vehicle with Bush stickers, I slap one of my stickers over it. I always slap them on the yellow ribbons too. Last week a saw a vehicle in a parking lot with a yellow ribbon sticker that said "worth the price" - that one got two stickers.

[harpo]

52. I LOVE YOU MAN!!!!

[Pooka Fey]

53. Scha-WEET. :-)

[eridani]

54. Just got a new inkjet

I'm going to print on some of that magnet material HOW MANY SOLDIERS PER GALLON DOES THIS PIG OF A VEHICLE GET? and stick them on the big honkin' SUVs with magnetic ribbons. I'll lay off of ribbons + more fuel efficient vehicles and SUVs without ribbons.

[berni_mccoy]

55. GENIUS!

I'm going to do the exact same thing! Thanks for the inspiration!

[Liberal In Texas]

56. That's great!

I think we should all have them.

"Duh...what's that DU (or Kerry or whatever) on your car? Are a you a traitor? Anti-American?...)

And shove the "papers" in their face.

Good job!

[Piperay]

57. Love it

that's terrific! :thumbsup:

[NJCher]

58. a good one

This is really terrific, malmapus. I shall heed your advice and take many, many brochures for "repub-mobiles." I shall not only regard my flyering as activism, it will be therapy because I get so angry and disgusted when I see these behemoths that I find myself gritting my teeth.

I ran across this sticker awhile back which I had printed up as a flyer and which I stuck under Hummer windshields. It's actually from the Freeway Blogger:

Real soldiers are dying in their HUMMERS so you can play soldier in yours.
Love that one: it's cryptic and is like a dagger to the heart.

The "10 miles to the gallon, 2 soldiers per day" is good, too, except now it should be "10 miles to the gallon, 10 soldiers per day."




Cher

p.s. In a moment when restraint failed me, I asked a woman climbing into a Humvee ("W" sticker, too), "How small does your husband's dick have to be to buy a thing like that?" I looked at her SUV like I'd look at aphids on my prized rose bush. Wrinkled my nose, too. She turned red, her eyes bulged and she blurted, "How dare you!" and then she slammed the door in my face.

[LeahD]

59. Please, no sweeping generalizations....

Some SUV drivers are your friends......
I'm a liberal dem , but I live in a mountain community and need my SUV with high-clearance. A Subaru just doesn't cut it when you have 18" of snow. Cut some of us some slack!

P.S. My SUV is not a Hummer. GMC.....and GMC employees are in the danger zone these days.

[Demit]

61. Just curious--what did you drive before there were SUVs?

[LeahD]

68. Drove a VW Superbeetle for several years, then

a Mazda pick-up truck, but lived elsewhere in those years.

[apple_ridge]

63. That's a load. I live in a very snowy area and I surely don't need

an SUV.

[B Calm]

62. Any vehicle with a yellow ribbon should get military brocheres.

[apple_ridge]

64. Do you mind posting your brochure for people to download?

I'm in!

[lectrobyte]

66. Why pick on SUVs? I see a lot of Bush stickers on regular-type

cars... If you see a Hummer with a Bush sticker, are you glad you have one of these on your keychain?



That last part is a joke btw.

[leesa]

67. I do this too. It's very cathartic.
