Bumper Sticker "Give War a Chance"
Does anybody want to bet that the guy driving the pickup that sported that bumper sticker has never seen a lick of action in a war?

Also on the same pickup:
God Bless Our Troops - Especially the Snipers
Extremely Rightwing

(like, no shit on the last one, eh?)

2. LOL
I don't think people that would use Extenz would advertise they use it, no?

4. Because peaceful methods just take so gosh-darned long
And very few things blow up reel gud when you're engaging your adversary through peaceful means.

There's a car I ride by on my daily commute that has the "snipers" bumper sticker on it. I hope every day I don't see the owner getting into that car, because I'm not sure I could resist the invitation to discuss it with him or her.

5. We Used Peaceful Means on South Africa
and now they are a thriving democracy that just hosted a major international sporting event, and their economy is amongst the most vibrant in the world.

6. I've seen a car stickered like that.
In the parking lot of a very affluent private religous school where I sometimes teach an after school science program.

The "sniper" one irks me the most but, I suppose that is the goal, so I just ignore it. Though, at times, I am tempted to accidentally hack up a huge lung cookie onto their windshield.

GAK-THOO! Like that...and then leave a little note.

God bless our lung secretions, especially the green and yellow gooey ones.

8. Saw one on a truck with GA plates yesterday.
"Did you vote for Obama? Thanks a lot moron."



For a second, I thought I was back at DU.
