The bumper sticker reads, "Don't Re-Nig in 2012." And in smaller print below, "Stop repeat offenders. Don't' reelect Obama!" The sticker also features an image of the Obama campaign logo crossed out.
Several viewers have claimed the image has been digitally altered. After all, it seems shocking that someone would proudly display an openly racist image on their vehicle in 2012. So, is the image authentic?
In short, yes. it seems we always have one or two folks come here to tell us racism doesn't exist. so i thought i would post this new diddy just to remind folks that, well, yeah, it's alive and well.
sure, you can talk to god, but if you don't listen then what's the use? so, onward through the fog!

It's not photoshopped. It was sold at an online site called "Stumpy's"-well known for racist merchandise. The cost of this bumper sticker was $3.00/ It was posted to Facebook, and gained the ire of so many people, Stumpy's took it off their site, and they are refusing to answer any questions regarding it. I did see it posted on Facebook. Not one favorable(towards the bumper sticker) comment was posted to the story.

Of course racism exists and the republican Party panders to the worst of them.

Of course racism exists and the republican Party panders to the worst of them. Oh stop it. What is worse, a bumper sticker that most people n America look at and cuss about, or an official policy that placed under achievers at the head of the line because they are of a certain skin color? There is something at least honest about the guy who had the sticker on his car, he isn't trying to convince people that his motives are pure, instead of perpetuating the idea that certain races can't succeed without special rules that apply only to them.

It gets harder and harder to be sure Irked and Ma_republican are not the same person.

' Come, come, MaR!! You try to make us think you are a lovable Archie Bunker from Massachusetts, but we all know what Republicans look like !! [b]Gingrich: “I am not a werewolf!”[/b]Oh, sure! As if anyone would believe that !! Newt Gingrich began trying to clear his name Tuesday after two close friends accused him of being a werewolf. The sources, who wished to remain unnamed, said they had seen the GOP presidential candidate often staring up at the night sky, whispering to himself. They said he was obsessed with the moon and always talking about its “spherical majesty.” “It was like the moon made him a different person – like it changed him,” one source said. “Well, I’ve never seen him eat anyone or anything,” another source said. “But who knows?” Gingrich, the former Republican speaker of the House who was kicked out of office in 1998, has made space travel one of his main campaigning platforms. “By the end of my second term, we will have the first permanent base on the Moon.... Though most voters may think Newt’s infatuation with the moon came from out of the blue, sources say they saw it coming all along.... Gingrich’s spokesperson didn’t immediately return calls for an interview, but did send a terse email yesterday: “Newt is unable to participate in any interviews until after the full moon has passed. We apologize for any inconvenience."

And I'm sure that the irony in his statement goes right over his head...

It's like the election of a black president, in some perverted way, gave the racists "permission" to act out their hate.
