****** DU November 2009 Bumper Sticker Slogan Contest: And The Winners Are... ******


If You Love Medicare And Social Security, Thank A Democrat
slogan suggested by Catshrink




The War On Terror Is Over - Wall Street Won
slogan suggested by RagAss




G.O.P. Healthcare Plan: Don't Get Sick
slogan suggested by berni_mccoy


These stickers and more are available now in the DU Store!


Thanks to everyone for taking part and congratulations to the winners - I'll contact you via PM shortly. :hi:

Special note: this month's second placed entry as decided by the voters was actually lame54's suggestion, "Owning a Gun is a Right - Having a Bullet Removed is a Privilege." After some debate we decided that while the slogan itself is not inappropriate, selling bumper stickers with this slogan just one day after yesterday's mass shooting at Fort Hood feels a bit too much like trying to cash in on a tragedy (this is not lame54's fault - he suggested the slogan before the shooting happened). Next month we'll automatically include lame54's slogan as one of the winners, and voters will select a top two instead of a top three.

4. Great stickers!
I have an idea, but I don't know if it is financially feasible.

Maybe during the next fund drive people can pick one of the winners at the time as their bumper sticker instead of the DU one. Maybe with 20 dollar or more (or something) donation.

I know at the price of the DU store it wouldn't be good for you guys, but maybe in bulk. Maybe one could be picked as the choice.

Just a thought.
