On the way home from work today, I passed a truck with this bumper sticker:

"There are Americans ... And there are Liberals"

At first I was pissed off. (I hate Super Patriots who question everyone else's patriotism, especially the Chicken Hawk crowd). I rolled down my window with the intention of saying something at the next light. But at the next light before we got side by side, he rolled down his own window and poured out his drink on the road. Then he flipped his cigarette out the window. Upon seeing this, I had to smile. Ever heard the quote "Consider the source?" We need more folks like this questioning other folk's patriotism.

Kinda reminds me of Ann Coulter and Mike Savage hyper-defining Conservatism to an all-new level of hysteria and silliness. These folks, of course, will be the undoing of the modern neo-con movement. Just give 'em more rope - (and make sure there are no lynchin' trees nearby.. !)

What I fear with the modern neo-con movement is that dissent will be silenced. This is one reason I've proudly self-identified as a liberal. Just for fun sometime, listen to Rush or Boortz or Coulter and everytime you hear the word "liberal", substitute it mentally with "Jew" or "Christian" or "Negro". Pick your favorites race, religion, or creed. Scary, huh? We need folks like Coulter and Savage and this litter pig giving the whole shooting match a black eye.
