Uprising @ state emissions test station
Today I took my vehicle in for emissions testing. Once again, my numerous bumper stickers brought on comments & conversation among the employees & several customers… all just ordinary people.

Some comments…

    “I’m so embarrassed that he’s the president. How could people vote for him? Twice?”

    “Just goes to show you how stupid people can be.”

    “I cringe every time he speaks. He’s such an idiot!”

    "Even Nixon was better. He was a criminal, but at least he was an intelligent criminal."

    "Did you hear that he said his brother would make a good president? I'd vote for Donald Duck before I'd vote for another one from that nest of vipers!"

    “I don’t understand why they’re still in office. When are people going to wake up?”

    “Now they’re spying on everyone. What’s next? Stormtroopers?”

    “They lied & cheated to get in power & they just keep lying & cheating… and our kids are dying in Iraq for their lies. Bastards. All of them.”

    “He doesn’t even have the guts to talk to Cindy Sheehan. He hides from her. He sent her son to Iraq to die, and won’t even talk to her. He hides. Coward.”

    “The sons of bitches should all be impeached. They should all be sent to the Hague!”

    "We need a Congress to impeach. All we've got now are a bunch of Republican bobbleheads in Washington."

    "Just wait until November!"

Yes, just wait until November. :)

Just a snapshot of what’s going on in America today ;-)

1. Are you in a blueish area or a reddish area?
That would not happen here. :(

But thanks for the encouraging info. :)

6. Blue, w/a sprinkle of red... but I think the red may be fading away.

4. I bet 29% of the people there kept very quiet, didn't they?
It's nice to finally be in the majority again.

11. You should have said "It's my luck to run into one if the 29% " I
was wondering who they are...

15. Thanks for sharing!!!
Last week I had the stickers below on my Toyota truck & a big ole' honkin' Dodge disel truck was behind me with a burly guy wearing a cowboy hat. The road widened to two lanes, we got stuck at a traffic light & he rolled down his window, gave me a big thumbs up & said "Keep spreading the message!"

He made my day!!!
