Bumper stickers not for Republicans

Recommended Posts

I am thinking of having a few of these printed up.

begin quoted text>>

BLIND FAITH IN BAD LEADERSHIP IS NOT PATRIOTISM

IF YOU'RE NOT OUTRAGED, YOU'RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION

IF YOU SUPPORTED BUSH, A YELLOW RIBBON WON'T MAKE UP FOR IT

POVERTY, HEALTH CARE & HOMELESSNESS ARE MORAL ISSUES

EXCUSE ME......OF COURSE IT HURTS. YOU'RE GETTING SCREWED BY AN ELEPHANT

RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM: A THREAT ABROAD, A THREAT AT HOME

GOD BLESS EVERYONE (No exceptions, please)

BUSH SPENT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY ON HIS WAR. FEEL SAFER NOW?

I'D RATHER HAVE A PRESIDENT WHO SCREWED HIS INTERN THAN ONE WHO SCREWED HIS COUNTRY

IS IT 2008 YET?

DISSENT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PATRIOTISM -- Thomas Jefferson

DON'T BLAME ME. I VOTED AGAINST BUSH -- TWICE!

ANNOY A CONSERVATIVE - THINK FOR YOURSELF

GEORGE W. BUSH: MAKING TERRORISTS FASTER THAN HE CAN KILL THEM

DEMOCRATS ARE SEXY-- WHOEVER HEARD OF A GOOD PIECE OF ELEPHANT?

DON'T CONFUSE DYING FOR OIL WITH FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM

STEM CELL RESEARCH IS PRO-LIFE

HONOR OUR TROOPS - DEMAND THE TRUTH

REBUILD IRAQ? WHY NOT SPEND 87 BILLION ON AMERICA?

FACT: BUSH OIL
1999 - $19 BARREL
2006 - $70 BARREL

THE LAST TIME RELIGION CONTROLLED POLITICS, PEOPLE GOT BURNED AT THE STAKE

<<< end quoted text

Anybody want some?

You may want to go ahead and state that you didn't make those up or atleast cite where you got them from. It typically looks better if you quote something that you cite where you get it from.

You see a lot of liberal sound bites like that on cars around Seattle...most of them are all over one car, as if bumper-sticker sloganeering is somehow going to magically alter domestic and foreign policy if there are enough of them. It kind of reflects liberal thinking; e.g., the only reason liberal policies haven't succeeded is because the right people weren't in charge. Kind of like the attitudes of born-again Communists.

Communists...liberals...I mean, what's the difference, right? :S

Sorry, but the cold war has been over for some time now. You should work on finding a new label rather than using these tired old ones from the 1950s.

Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

This would make a great bumper sticker. :P



Yeah, but unlike a lot of the other stickers, that one isn't true. Liberal policies won't succeed for the same reason conservative policies won't succeed. They're too extreme. Liberals and conservatives ought to work together to find a solution they can both live with. The problem is that neither side will compromise on anything significant, so nothing gets done aside from petty bickering and finger pointing.

Not true? I've heard many Liberals say exactly that.

Extreme Liberal and Conservative politics don't suceed because they collapse under their own weight and are rejected by the population at large. To make the claim that they won't suceed simply because they are conservative or liberal isn't correct. Many of the laws and rights we enjoy came out of conservative and/or liberal thinking. I look at them as a counter-balance. Keeping each ideology from swinging too far either way.

I said the policies wouldn't work because they were too extreme, not because they're labelled liberal or conservative. I've heard both democrats and republicans make the claim that their programs didn't work because of faulty leadership, though. I think that eventually things balance out, especially when one party controls the legislature and the other controls the executive. That way, you don't end up with runaway, out of control politics like we're seeing with the national government now and the California government pre-Arnold. I don't like Arnold, but I'm going to vote for him because I like the balance he's brought to our state government. If we get a democrat in the governor's seat with a democratically controlled legislature, things will get out of control again. Neither party can be trusted to completely run the government.

I think the biggest reason I'm a libertarian is because I find the party to be a good balance between republicans and democrats. The libertarians advocate many of the social freedoms the democrats want (pro choice, gay marriage, freedom of religion) without the socialistic policies (example: laws requiring pharmacies to fill all prescriptions whether or not the business owner finds it moral or economical...one person's freedom shouldn't be at the expense of someone else's), and balance that with classic republican ideas of lower taxes and responsible spending, without the neo-con theocratic extremism.
