Jesus, Pontius Pilate, Obama and Palin Bumper Sticker

The Sticker — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 12:23:10 +0000

Sarah Palin and other conservative Republicans mock Barack Obama’s experience as a community organizer, and Sarah Palin extols her identity as a governor. Sarah Palin also extols her credentials as a conservative Christian. Christian, governor, community organizer… isn’t there something in the Bible about all this?

Polar Bears Against Palin Lapel Stickers

Polar bears had it hard enough before John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his running mate in the Republican campaign for the White House. Polar bears are suffering the record melt of the polar ice on the Arctic Ocean. The bears depend upon that ice in order to hunt seals, their main prey. Now that significant amounts of ice are gone in the summertime, the bears are finding it difficult to find enough food to eat.

So, after years of illegal delays by George W. Bush, the polar bears were finally given Endangered Species Act protection this year. Almost immediately, however, that victory for the polar bears was itself endangered. As Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin filed a frivolous lawsuit on behalf of the big oil companies in order to try to force the federal government to reverse the decision to protect polar bears.

Science was on the side of the polar bears. It’s clear that they’re a threatened species. Yet, Sarah Palin argued that polar bears ought to be allowed to die off because profits for oil corporations are more important.

America has suffered under that kind of anti-environment, anti-science attitude for eight long years. If Sarah Palin is elected Vice President… well, the plain fact is that John McCain is elderly, and he’s not in good health. McCain has had cancer four times, and has other serious health conditions. Sarah Palin would likely become President if John McCain were elected.

That’s why polar bears, and the people who care about their survival, are against Palin. These lapel stickers can be worn by those who want to spread the word, and speak for the bears (for the bears have silent tongues, and I’m telling you Palin, at the top of my lungs…)

(They’re available as campaign buttons there too, but given that the theme of this blog is progressive bumper stickers, I thought I’d stick with that.)

Sarah Palin Shows Ignorance Again: Please, Prevent Truth Decay!

Oh dear. In a response to the 2006 Eagle Forum Questionnaire, Sarah Palin revealed the depth of her knowledge regarding the Pledge of Allegiance:

Question: Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?

Sarah Palin: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.

How plucky! The problem is, the founding fathers didn’t write the Pledge of Allegiance, and they certainly didn’t incorporate “Under God” in the U.S. Constitution. In fact, they kept any references to the divine out of the Constitution! Is this who you want to be one creaky heartbeat away from the presidency?

Prevent Truth Decay. Reject McCain-Palin in 2008.
