Classic anti-Santorum "DUMPRICK" bumper sticker
http://www.dubyad40.com/2006/09/how-do-you-spell-santorum.shtml

A friend of ours from Pennsylvania sent this picture of the back of her car.



The response she's been getting?
The week I put this sticker on my car, a lady in the Target parking lot said, "Hey, I love your sticker!" I asked her if she wanted one - I had bought extra. She said sure. I gave it to her and she put it on her car right away! The next day, I was shopping at Whole Foods. When I came out, there was a little gum wrapper under my wiper blade, with writing....it said: "I want to know where to get the DUMPRICK sticker. Can you please call me and tell me where to get one?"

To my knowledge, they are only available at a little gift shop in Squirrel Hill in Pittsburgh (info available on request). I think they had them made in fact. That's why they're hard to find. If any of your readers in PA want to get one, they can call the store and I'm sure they'd be happy to mail a few out!


We love it! If anyone wants one, contact us at dubyad40webATgmailDOTcom and we'll send you the contact information of the store where you can find them. We don't want to post the store's phone number online and have people call and harass them. Doing it this way at least requires the knuckle-dragging http://www.spreadingsantorum.com/">Santorum supporters to have enough cranial capacity to send and receive email, thereby filtering out 90% of them.

Note: dubyaD40.com has no affiliation whatsoever with this store or the people making the bumper sticker, or even know who or where they are. We just got the phone number from a friend/reader, so we're not advertising, we just think it's a hilarious sticker and want to let you know where you can get one if you want it.

1. Put a "b" in and it would be DUMB PRICK...
I think that would be a much better sticker! Rick is a dumb prick!

5. Well, it kinda has a dual message just as it is, now
That's why it engages people and they want one.

You look at it, and your first thought IS DUMB PRICK, even without the B--because you sound it out in your mind, and the B in 'dumb' is silent...and then, you look again, and see DUMP RICK. So, for the price of one message, you get two--Dump Rick, the Dum(b) Prick!

7. Most readers get the obvious point without having it spelled out for them
dum prick is how I read it at first, very clever lumping it together
then you read into it what you want.

3. The message and meaning come across real fine. Hey,
it'd work for Rick Perry (TX Gov), too!
The TX forum might be interested...:evilgrin:

10. That's great. I just emailed them for the contact info. Thanks!
We're doing a GOTV meeting in Philly soon. Would be great to have these available.
