Not the whole company but apparently one franchisee put these stickers on his rentals. The corporate media keeps trying to bury the birther issue but too many people use the internet and have found out the truth.
Birther Thrifty Car: Buffalo Rental Cars Sport 'Vote For The American' Bumper Stickers
Thrifty Car: Buffalo Rental Cars Sport 'Vote For The American' Bumper Stickers
Updated: 10/26/2012 7:20 pm EDT
Two women are saying that cars they rented from a Thrifty car rental franchise at the Buffalo, N.Y., airport had birther movement bumper stickers placed on them.
The two women, Barbara Wingate of San Diego and Stephanie DiBiase of Chicago, said bumper stickers that read "Vote for the American" were placed on the bumpers of cars they rented from the franchise. Wingate and DiBiase -- both of whom provided photos of the bumper stickers -- said they were told by employees that the stickers were placed there by the franchise owner.
The franchise is owned by Westover Car Rental, a subsidiary of Ellicott Development, a Buffalo holding company controlled by Carl Paladino, the Tea Party-affiliated businessman who lost the 2010 gubernatorial race to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D).
Wingate said she was "embarrassed" to drive the car and that she complained to an employee when she returned the car. She said the employee said the franchise owner wanted the stickers kept in place and that he had asked the staff to vote for Romney. Wingate also said she noticed other cars with the stickers at the Thrifty franchise.
