Bumper stickers

This year, more than most, bumper stickers have become my bane. I will never understand the hubris that causes one to actually believe that all drivers care what one's stances are on various positions.
What I've noticed further is that the probability that the driver of a vehicle supports the Democrat party invariably increases along with the number of bumper stickers on the back of the vehicle.
Liberals like to pretend that conservatives (well, them and everyone else who isn't a liberal) are a group of lower intellect Neanderthals. However, it is the liberal who has the remarkable tendency to distill their positions down to some inane rhyme that fits on 36 square inches of sticker affixed to the bumper (or rear window) of a car.
And some of these message are indeed hateful. Of course, the most popular ones are insulting remarks about the intelligence of our current commander-in-chief. And while I'm no Bush fan myself, it's not as if the Dems actually put forth a candidate in either 2000 or 2004 that was appreciably more intelligence than GWB. Mr. Al Gore, the hypocrite who wastes gallons upon gallons of jet fuel flying around the country excoriating the rest of us for living lavish lives, clearly has his finger OFF the pulse of reality. And, of course, my favorite...Lurch (apologies to Rush Limbaugh...a more accurate nickname never has existed for anyone ever) Kerry is easily one of the dimmest politicians to ever run for office and has continued to hold his seat primarily due to the collective insanity of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
