I believe we've had threads before about bumper stickers, but not lately. I saw a good one today dealing with abortion. While I favor the pro-choice side of this issue, I had to admire the cleverness and friendly tenor of this sticker.
It showed on the left side a sketch of a newborn baby. The rest was taken up with two lines:
CHOOSE LIFE!
YOUR MOM DID.
Anybody else got a good bumper sticker to report?

Again, not wanting to stir any political arguments, just from a semiotic viewpoint:
BUSH
LLIT

How nice for you, of troy!
I tend to hate bumper stickers, especially those that bash individuals or groups instead of promoting an idea/cause/indiv/group. They usually just make people look stupid, in my opinion.
I did think it was funny that a co-worker of mine had a Dean bumpersticker on his car for approximately one week.

Once during the previous Bush's administration I saw a woman carrying a sign that said "BUSH -- stay out of mine."
Probably the funniest bumper sticker I ever saw, one that made me laugh out loud, was a variation on the "my other car is a porsche" bumper stickers that one oftens sees on junker cars. It read "my other car is a piece of shit too." It caught me off guard, and I think that's what made it so funny.

The delayed reaction in understanding is what I liked most about the bumpersticker. In the original it was black letters on a white background for the BUSH and white letters on black background for the LLIT.

It's just that it's so hard to find anything to be *for these days.
