Anyone remember the "Romney bumper stickers removed for free?" sign?

I know a lot of people thought it was fake, but I never saw any evidence of that. I was browsing around on the internet and found this.

Turns out someone made that sign using this obscure image generator site. That's quite unfortunate as I was really hoping it was real. I know a lot of people may find this to be a pointless post, but I always did wonder about that sign and I am sure I am not the only one.

There was no reason to mention it though. It's still a great pic and says just as much as if it were real.

We unfortunately live in a super conservative area in SoCal and I never saw even ONE Romney sticker or yard sign. Our super RW neighbors did have a NoBama sticker on his truck. My husband has had a few friendly "discussions" with Jesse (the dad's name).

Major Jesus freaks, yet so hypocritical. Ole Jesse says that he's glad he's stocked up with his guns and ammo - says that there is a major "revolution" coming in a couple years. He hires undocumented workers to help in his business, and then calls them "dirty Mexicans" behind their backs.

OTOH, they were super nice when I had to have major surgery last year and have been very kind to us. Cooked dinners for my husband while I was in the hospital - even came to visit me after I was out of the ICU. They bring us roses from their garden and homemade yummies. It's easy to judge people from a distance, but a lot harder when you really know them. Sigh.

I only saw one Romney sticker. I now live in Lancaster Ca, and I saw a Romney sticker that was either faded, or they tried to take it off, and you can still see it. Like the upper part of the sticker tore off and left the glue and paper behind. I laughed when I saw it. I said to myself and anyone close, How'd that Rmoney thing turn out for you. The sticker was on a SUV.
