A Panoply of 99 Percent Bumper Stickers

The Sticker — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 16:44:59 +0000

We have always been the 99% — those Americans who don’t make a killing each year but are just trying to get by. We’re students looking for a future that isn’t so bleak. We’re teachers who make less and are expected to do more every year. We’re clerks and nurses and carpenters and the unemployed who are looking, looking, looking for work. What we all have in common is that we’ve had it up to here with the cozy, elite 1% acting like the rest of us have no rights, like they own us. The 1% doesn’t own the 99% and it’s time we reminded them of that. Express your support for the movement of the 99 percent with one of these bumper stickers below:

Don’t Like Socialism? Get Off the Highway!

The Sticker — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 20:01:45 +0000

Every time I read someone on the internet proclaiming about the evils of socialism, how government never gets anything right, I find myself wondering if they are aware of the origins of the internet itself. And every time I come across a bumper sticker condemning socialism on I10 or I40 or I90, I wonder why the people whose cars sport such bumper stickers would choose to travel on the interstate highways. The interstate highway system, you know, is a socialist big government program.

Come on, people, be consistent. You don’t like socialism? Then get off the highway!

Mark a Winless Season in Sports With a 0-16 Bumper Sticker

The Sticker — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 17:03:22 +0000

The oddness of American culture is exposed by our interaction with sporting. Sports teams around the country are celebrated… for perfect winning seasons. Then “we” won with “our” team and it shows the superiority of “us” and “our city” or “our school.” Losing teams in football, baseball, basketball quickly become “them,” and “they” are ignored as not reflecting “our” good city or school. As the Detroit Lions face the planting of a perfect 0-16 season in the firm cement of history this Sunday, how will we react? Will fans turn their faces? Counteract the alienating amnesia of loss by noting the negative exception:

… then reassure the aspirational part of your soul with this mathematical truth: there is no way to go but up.

Hey, Governor Blagojevich: [Expletive Deleted] You!

The Sticker — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 15:55:52 +0000

This bumper sticker is for all the infuriated people of Illinois and America, reading their morning paper with disgust. We’ve just learned about Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich’s profanity-laced corrupt phone calls, declaring with such scatalogical glee his intention to milk his office for money that newspapers were forced to insert “[expletive deleted]” into their stories on a regular basis.

Enough with the bribery. Enough with the corruption. Enough with the Illinois political machine. So hey, Guv. Yeah, you, Rod Blagojevich. [Expletive Deleted] You!

Barack Obama and John Edwards Run for White House Together?

The Sticker — Thu, 15 May 2008 13:18:58 +0000

Last night, John Edwards endorsed Barack Obama for President. This endorsement had long been delayed, for the obvious reason that John Edwards was the most sought-after endorsement of the long 2008 Democratic primary season. The endorsement wrests the news cycle out of the hands of Hillary Clinton’. Even more important, however, are the 19 pledged delegates that John Edwards brings along with him. Edwards is practically his own state, politically speaking, and his endorsement wraps up the nomination for Obama.

Will it end there? Will John Edwards fade off into the background now? Don’t bet on it.

After seeing the crowd’s enthusiasm for John Edwards last night, combined with the tidal surge of support for Obama, I’d say that an Obama-Edwards ticket is more likely than ever.

John Edwards fits with Barack Obama, politically and biographically. Both come from modest economic backgrounds, and understand political issues from the perspective of working Americans. Both have rejected negative campaigning and lobbyist influence as well, and that will be a strong point in opposition to John McCain, who has filled his Senate office and his campaign staff with corporate lobbyists. Edwards and Obama also both represent an idealistic vision of a better American future, not a desperate clinging to the past.

If you’ve caught me being enthusiastic about the idea, well, I’ll admit it. Isn’t it time that Americans begin to feel a sense of optimism again? That’s what the Barack Obama campaign is about, really – overcoming fear with hope. With John Edwards on Obama’s team, that hope is all the more believable.

That’s the idea that’s behind this Obama-Edwards bumper sticker – and I’ll add on a note about the Obama Edwards campaign tshirt as well: It’s made in the USA, not in some overseas sweatshop factory that uses outsourced labor to make big profits for some corporate executives on the backs of child labor. This t-shirt fits the moral vision of the Obama Edwards campaign.

Maybe this one in particular is not for you – but please, make sure that when you do buy Obama or Obama-Edwards campaign shirts, they’re made in the USA. Don’t mix hope with despair.

The Print On Demand (POD) bumper sticker makers at Zazzle make a useful tool available to shopkeepers: statistics in rank order displaying the most-often bumper stickers viewed within a time period. The frequency of recent bumpersticker views on our Zazzle webshop (which sticks solely to bumper stickers with liberal messages on them) is an indicator of liberal sentiment about social and political causes of the day. What are these causes, and how do liberals orient themselves toward them?

The following are the ten most viewed liberal bumper stickers (not including our presidential election bumper stickers, which for purposes of clarity we rank separately) on our Zazzle webshop for the week of April 22-29, 2008:

1. Bitter: Ask Me Why

2. Customizable Bumper Sticker Against Right-Wing Congressional Kooks

3. Custom Candidate for Congress Bumper Sticker (Blue and Red background)

4. Customizable Congressional Campaign Bumper Sticker (Blue Background with Red Stars)

5. Support the Peace, Say No to War

6. Mark Twain Quote: “Loyalty to the country always. Loyalty to the government when it deserves it.”

7. Ben Franklin Quote: “Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

8. Is the Earth Getting Hot, Or Is It Just Me?

9. Fight Global Warming: Get On Your Bike!

10. Veterans Against the War

These messages are what liberals are looking for now. These searches capture the frequency of the liberal wavelength that’s resonating outside the presidential campaigns right now. Ask yourself: do they reflect what’s happening inside the presidential campaign?
