Seriously screwed up bumper sticker that I saw today.

The car was covered in them, but one stuck out in particular:

"May 1, 2011--Seal Team Six removes the #2 threat to America. November 6, 2012--America removes the #1 threat."

There are so many things wrong with that bumper sticker I don't even know where to begin.

Seriously, on what planet are these assholes from?

When the reality sets in, they will become unhinged and no longer safe to be around.

So as the economy grew and grew that decade under President Clinton, I took them at their word. I didn't blame them for the excellent economy.

no more than a week after the election in '92.

I remember thinking then that it really revealed the modern conservative mentality: smug, self-righteous, bitter, always thinking in terms of blame...and, as you point out, wrong.

....it also makes no sense. Since to "reneg" means to pull back on one's word. So those racist dumbshits are essentially saying vote for President Obama again.

Racist pun fail.

Apparently, he believes that members of the US military's special forces go ahead and on their own accord decide to undertake risky missions to capture or kill terrorist masterminds. No need for orders or planning or anything. Apparently, it's a hobby of theirs, like a pickup game of touch football.

To keep a supply of bumper stickers with your phrase in one's car.

Then, if an America-lover (a Liberal) sees an America-hater (repig) car covered with repig stickers, they can slap one of theirs on, and if there are enough existing stickers the repig owner won't notice one more - but drivers behind will!

of attaching labels to themselves and their property that serve to make me aware of their hateful and/or idiotic nature.

As for me, people actually have to get to know me in order to figure out my mental and social deficiencies.
