What's up with lefties and the excessive bumper sticker meme?

The guy has all these stickers about boycotting Muslim businesses and complaining about Saudi Arabia, but drives a pickup. I guess the oil industry doesn’t count.

I’ve seen the overstickered effect on more right-wing cars than left-wing, including one where they’d virtually covered the rear of the car with various “Support Our Troops” stickers, “ribbon” stickers and of course lots of flags. I’m guessing they had a child in Iraq/Afghanistan.

There is a car I see every day that is absolutely covered in writing, but the letters are so small I can never get close enough to see what the driver is so worked up about. I guess I could just walk up to it one day (it’s parked at the post office next door) but I’d be afraid of getting caught by the wackjob who would do that to their car.

My dad is pretty far to the right (although he’ll tell you he’s a centrist :rolleyes:) and while he doesn’t have a whole lot of stickers on his car, he has a trailer that he uses to haul around his motorcycle which is positively covered in Christian and Sarah Palin bumper stickers. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that he’s added some stickers which proclaim Obama to not be his President because he’s not a citizen, since that’s all he ever posts about on Facebook.

My own personal experience is that morbid bumper sticker excess generally leans left, while bizarre car modification (along the lines of a couple of Johnny L.A.'s Jesus cars) generally comes from the right.

Welcome, crypto7! I think you’re going to like it here. :smiley:

In Columbus, I see approximately equal amounts of hippie-mobiles and Beck-Trucks.

You don’t consider the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor an invasion?

What would you call it?

The word is attack, not invasion.

Sneak attack.

An invasion requires, you know, invading.

There was a small hippie-mobile covered in anti-Reagan, save the gay whales etc. bumper stickers that I saw a lot when I got my first job in Boston in the early 90s.

For the state government. Which is on Beacon Hill.

Which meant this cheap jalopy with rapidly fading and outdated stickers holding it together was commonly parked in front of some of the most distinguished red-brick white-trim mansions in America.

There is actually a 70’s vintage Toyota truck I see a couple times a year in my neck of the woods that has all of them. “My Body, My Choice” AND “Abortion Stops a Beating Heart”, Bush/Cheney AND Obama/Biden, “Save the Spotted Owls” AND “I Am A Logger and I Wipe My Ass with Spotted Owls”.
Any bumper sticker is good for this guy apparently.:confused:
