Have the mag. ribbons reached their lowest point?
Advertisements [?]
We've had posts on those magnetic ribbons, but today I saw one that had me puzzled. On a car, same size and looped shape as others, Black and Yellow with the flowery lettering, "Go Hawkeyes" and the head of the Iowa University mascot.

Was it a joke? Or are the IU atheletic teams being held hostage, or having a bad year? Or is this country so numbnuts stupid about its symbols that putting your college team on a ribbon is as valid and worthy a statment of support as the "pray for our troops" and "Support our President" ribbons? If it's a joke, I don't get it. Is our country so debased? What next, White Sox plastic wrist bands?
