So I follow two of "The Dumbest" into a coffee shop.
I will never understand how anyone can proudly sport a Bush/Cheney sticker on the back of their car, but this couple simply exuded Republicanism. Perhaps it was the local state rep sticker on their gas guzzler, the WWJD fish and no sense of personal style that provided the clinching evidence. ;)

At any rate, I'm standing behind them as I patiently wait for my turn with the barista.


"So how can a reasonably cognizant adult still support a lying murderous bastard in the White House?"

"Exactly how many hours of Faux News Channel do you watch a day?"

"Are lobotomies particularly painful?"


I didn't say a word aloud of course, but I was certainly taken aback by my internal reaction to this couple. I had to struggle a wee bit to consider them related to me at a basic genetic level. I refuse to grant The Divider that kind of power. Sick. Just sick.

1.  I would have been sorely tempted to haul my cell phone out
and have a "conversation" for their benefit. :evilgrin:

4. You know, I had this briefest of thoughts cross my mind....
to call home and start talking to my husband about an impeachment rally.

2. Go up to them and say...
Gee it looks like someone is playing a joke on you.

They seem to have placed a Bush-Cheney sticker on your vehicle.

Just didn't want you to be embarrassed.

And walk away.


:evilgrin:

5. All excellent suggestions. Thanks.
You may have saved me a fine and 6 points on my license.

7. I'm sorry, but
a WWJD sticker and a Bush/Cheney sticker are ideologically mutually exclusive.

They don't realize it but what they're saying, in effect, is, "I'm a social justice crusader AND a nazi pig-dog bastard."

Of course, the Bush/Cheney sticker indicates a subhuman mentality that cancels out any hope of compassion (except in the case of "scooter-pie" Libby).
