I need to tell you all something
I was driving around yesterday and I saw a local business - a white van - with an anti-Obama sticker on the back.
So I called the number on the van and said that I found that sign offensive and how did they expect to get business by alienating people who support Obama.
I am a woman, and this man on the phone immediately then SHOUTED at me OBAMA IS A COCKSUCKER and unleashed a whole stream of profanities. He was enraged. It was very scary even though I was just on the phone.
I just want you to know that if you think that dangerous demagogues on TV and Radio don't have an effect, you are wrong. Don't underestimate the hatred and raw anger on the other side. This is no bona fide difference of opinion. These people are scary scary scary. I'm scared of what they may do.
Was it scary or something, Trocadero? No cops, no bushes, and no responses yet for the DUmmy's bouncy ball.

Ha! I just saw this one too -- made me laugh out loud! :lmao:
Sounds like someone's feeling insecure and needs some dummie pats on the back (or VIBES)
-
Several replies came up. Several of them demanded to know the name of the company, the phone number, even the state. Anything. (This was most of the responses). Crickets from the OP.

I believe non-government controlled/subsidized businesses have every right to display their political leanings but I refuse to support any of them, even those who lean my way. I hate it when businesses get in my face with their political sh1t.

3. Interesting to note that someone has unrecced this already.
Your tale demonstrates that some are scary and dangerous. But remember that not all of them are. Many just lack information.

9. It's safe to assume there are freepers with DU accounts
unreccing anti-Republica and pro-Obama/Dem stories while reccing the anti-Obama/Dem and anything else that would help their right wingnut causes.
:rotf: :lmao: :mental: :rotf: :lmao: :loser:
Which only goes to show just how stupid you are, NJmaverick primitive. If I were so inclined, I would rec this thread because it highlights just how willing you freaks are to lie while hoping it'll help your leftwing kook causes.

Note to Class Warrior....the ONLY thing "scary and dangerous" is the fact taht you're gullible enough to believe a steaming pile of crap like that.

Why is it whenever we conservatives disagree with the stupidity of the left, we "lack information" or require some kind of "sensitivity training" or "education"....

14. A complaint to the Better Business Bureau in your area is appropriate
That was verbal assault and it needs to be documented. Businesses hate it when complaints show up. It can be done online.
If the guy is a flunky, you can bet he'll be an unemployed flunky. If he's the owner, you can bet he'll modify his behavior if he wants to stay in business.
Fight back.
The BBB?!?
:rotf: :rotf:
I'd love to hear that conversation.
BBB: Hello. We got a complaint that you shouted at a customer that Obama was cocksucker and we're following up on that.
Owner: What crazy person told you that?
BBB: A woman who said she called to complain about a bumpersticker on your company van.
Owner: No, that never happened. Someone's playing a trick on you.
BBB: We figured as much. Sorry to take up your valuable time. Thank You.

5. This is a crime. Profanity on the phone can be considered
assault. This has been proven and prosecuted successfully. I would report it.
:rotf: The name fits !

19. Just wondering...
Not that I'm sticking up for the guy who used profanity on the telephone, but when and where was using profanity on the telephone proven and successfully prosecuted?
And I'm talking about only profanity here...not threats.
Lint Head goes quiet.
That thread is hilarious !

She didn't see the other one:
"I was punching kittens when punching kittens wasn't cool."

I've recently seen a few things done by the President that I like to think of as being in response to the many emails (5 or more per week) that I and many more like me submit to the White House.

40. Maybe because they don't believe the OP?
No company name or number provided after many requests.
Like most of these "stories", it doesn't add up.

And we need to do this as soon as possible.
Before November!

Anytime it isn't just the pot talking Joanne, and you really are feeling froggy, you be sure to hop on over my way, kick down my door, and order me into the rail car headed to the FEMA camp. Bring friends, bitch. Bring the whole damned DUmp, if'n you can get 'em up off their lazy asses...

DUmmy Sapphocrat, who judging from the user name is a queer of some kind, no only believes the story, but adds links to a couple more whoppers:

This is followed by the best Adbot in ages, considering the thread changed into a discussion of queers by Sapphocrat and Doug's stupid ex-wife: Duluth Ballroom Jeans - "How To Crouch Without Singing Soprano".

I used to drive for a delivery company several years ago, it was a white box van....
I had a 2 bumper stickers on mine:
One said "Earth First:We'll Mine The Other Planets Later."
The other one said "Road Rage: Next 10 Miles."

I would like to take this time to give a big THANK YOU to Trocadero. Finally a Bouncy that was somewhat entertaining. Yes, it was short and left out some of the basic Bouncy plot elements, but it still brought a smile to my face. That's what a Bouncy is supposed to do.
The DUmmies have, for the most part, lost their vision when it comes to fabricating good tales and just being entertaining in general. I didn't participate in the 2009 DUmmie of the Year voting simply because I felt the DUmmies put in sub-par performances last year. It was like they were all off of their game. Even WeeWillie the human insomnia cure and the female/male/human/cat seemed to be just phoning things in last year.
Sure greenbriar was somewhat entertaining and deserved to win, but she still could have done much better. She tends to hesitate a bit if she's ever called on her BS. She needs to be more like TiT. Take the student wanting greenbriar to be her slave master bouncy. If TiT had told the story as soon as any of the DUmmies questioned him he would have gotten even more forceful. Maybe like this: Listen here! Back in the day Dred Scott and I were hanging out, kicking back some brews and playing some tunes and even he told me that if I would have been his master he never would have tried to got free. It touched me. That's the whole reason that I went to Abe and told him that he was going to free those slaves and free them now because he's just the pres and I'm the second most decorated Power Ranger in the entire universe.
So again I say thank you Trocadero for trying to get back to basics and bring entertainment back to the Bouncy Tale. Just work on adding some of the other elements in such as converting fundies and bystanders cheering.

You're right, of course, but TiT would have said "Listen here, Hot Rod......"

I miss TiT. Surely he has surfaced somewhere else.

57. I had a guy honk and come up beside me and roll down his window and yell
**** OBAMA AND **** YOU TOO!
I guess my Obama sticker offended him.
He had a Ron Paul sticker and an anti Obama sticker on his bumper.
I called 911.
Post this man's number and I'll call him too. We need to confront this hatred. It's repulsive.
dysfunctional press
Response to Reply #57

Agreed. If politics should be left off the dinner table at family gatherings then it sure as hell should be left out of your business. Do what you want, but it seems stupid to advertise what nearly 1 out of 2 people disagrees with.
But, let's keep in mind that this never happened and the OP is a liar.
-
I know they're nuts, stupid, and angry but to get your panties in a wad over a bumper sticker? When something like this sends you over the edge maybe it's time to lock yourself in the basement so as not to be offended by the 1st Amendment.

Cindie, her panties are so wadded up that she's too freaking freaked out to even provide the name and number. Not going to do it. Too upsetting.

But I am telling everyone for you own benefit

It sounds like she's backpedalling as fast as Pam did when she got called out on her little slave girl bouncy.
