What’ve you got against bumper stickers? I saw a car the other day of a guy who, like yourself, considers himself a good Republican, and it still had both a “W” sticker and a “McCain-Palin” sticker on it. My car is a Ford Taurus with 100K miles; his was an Escalade.

I’m looking for a slogan I saw on a protest sign a couple months back: Palin for Prez, 2012-2014 1/2 😃

I saw Palin/Voldemort 2012, but it was a website banner, not a bumper sticker.

What the hell is subtle or clever about bold misogyny?

I think MOL was being facetious. Just a guess.

I’ve been thinking of something like:

You do realize that she never claimed that she could see Russia from her house, right? That was something which Tina Fey said.

That is correct, but only a slight exaggeration. Here is [what she actually said](http://newsbusters.org/blogs/brad-wilmouth/2009/11/18/abc-brings-i-can-see-russia-my-backyard-palin-interview):

> [@ABC News](#):
>
> As Gibson and Palin discussed the conflict between Russia and Georgia, Gibson had asked last year, “What insight into Russian actions particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of this state give you?”
> 
> Palin responded: “They’re our next door neighbors. And you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska.”

Political stickers, especially about anti-tea bagger/Palin is likely to get your car vandalized in some form or fashion.

Not worth it in my opinion.

There’s a Dad at my daughter’s daycare who has two bumper stickers: “You Lie” and “Where’s Obama’s REAL Birth Certificate?”

I often wonder if he’s really a liberal, trying to point out the idiocy of the far-right wingers. . .

Well, I see where Alaska just found her in violation of the ethics rules and demanded that she repay some $380,000 collected for her legal defense fund. Maybe you can make something out of that.

I know that. As with many things in real life though, the devils are in the details. When somebody specifically states that they can see the moon from their backyard (as opposed to some other place on the planet), it strongly implies that they really do believe that Palin claimed to be able to see Russia from her house. Otherwise, why emphasize the “backyard” part?

Not to get political, but bumper stickers like that are likely to backfire if the people who read it _know_ that this quote came from Tina Fey, not from Ms. Palin.

[I like this one](http://www.cafepress.com/+thanks_for_asking_sticker_bumper,439048971).

Responds to the sort of bumper stickers you mentioned without stooping to their level.

Shouldn’t that be “…very well” though?
