Maybe it’s just a little trick of the mind, kind of visual Freudian slip, but have you noticed how close Sarah Palin’s last name is to the word pain? Just take one thin little sliver of a letter out, and Palin becomes pain.
Pain rhymes with McCain too. Is that an accident? Oh, no, I don’t think so.
It’s not McCain-Palin 2008. The Republicans are running McCain-Pain 2008.
In either case, the polite response to this request for a vote is No Thanks 2008.
Eight years of pain under the Republicans in the White House has been long enough for me.

Hillary Clinton’s dynamic speech before the Democratic National Convention has turned the tide in the race, moving past Clinton vs. Obama dramatics to Democrats vs. John McCain concerns. She made clear in no uncertain terms the many ways in which John McCain stands in opposition to progress in the United States of America. Her most memorable line: No Way, No How, No McCain!” will be perhaps the most memorable bumper sticker statement of the 2008 Elections. So it makes sense that there would be an actual No Way, No How, No McCain bumper sticker. And here it is.

After his keynote speech, do you think Mark Warner has it takes to be the next president after Barack Obama? Is it time for Mark Warner 2016?

Just because the issues of the 2008 presidential election are serious doesn’t mean that your involvement in the election always has to be serious. Sometimes, a little bit of humor can go a long way to spreading a message you believe in.
Take this bumper sticker, for instance: I Wish Michelle Obama Was My First Lady. Yes, it means you’d like to see the Obamas in the White House, with Michelle Obama as the First Lady there. But, the bumper sticker also means that you would like to have Michelle Obama as your first lady.
Hey, Barack Obama is the most popular politician of our time. I think he can take the competition.

| How do you react to the absurdity that is John McCain forgetting how many homes he owns? You could just focus on the quote, letting it speak for itself…. and it does speak volumes about McCain’s elitism, his gimpy memory, his thoughtless wealth and his inability to relate to Jane and Joe and the rest of us people whose names begin with J.
You could do that, or you could turn it on its head. The reporter from Politico who asked the question didn’t ask a follow-up. I know what my follow-up question would be: “Um, hey, Mr. McCain. Could I have one of your houses?” |

Over at Democrats.org, they’ve put together a sweet little website, Exxon-McCain 2008, a parody site that reveals the connections between John McCain and the oil industry. Did you know, for instance, that John McCain has put together a little $4 Billion legislative gift to the oil companies while he runs around telling the rest of us little people that he can’t afford to do anything that would help us out of this energy crisis? For shame, John McCain!
Here is an Exxon-McCain 2008 bumper sticker to help spread the meme, using the style of the George W. Bush 2004 bumper sticker to help reinforce the idea that John McCain is just four more years of George W. Bush.

The print-on-demand political merchandising system has been hit hard this month by the waves of inflation surging through the economy. CafePress has increased the price of its bumper stickers by about one third, sending the price of a bumper sticker, with shipping, over five dollars.
That’s a hard price for people to swallow, when their jobs are insecure, when their homes are defaulting, and when more of their income is swallowed up in essential expenses like food and fuel.
There is an alternative, however, to print-on-demand bumper stickers. Over at Irregular Times, they’re offering pre-printed Barack Obama bumper stickers, and are able to do so at a dramatically lower price than what the print-on-demand services can offer.
Instead of a price over five dollars, this Barack Obama bumper sticker is sold at a price of just $1.40 when bought in packs of 25. Yes, that price includes shipping and handling.
People want to get involved in politics. They want to do the right thing, but right now the cost of involvement can seem prohibitive for many Americans. Thanks to Irregular Times for bringing the price of political speech down to a level that people can really afford.
