...than you do toward drivers who display “Bush/Cheney" stickers?

When someone changes lanes or turns in front of you without signaling and that car displays a “Bush/Cheney” sticker, do you scream “A**hole! You think you’re sooooo f**king superior to the rest of us that you can do want you want and we peons can just back off!,” but if that car has a “Kerry/Edwards” sticker, do you think “Poor guy. Probably doesn’t have the money to get his turn signals fixed.”

If you see a car run a red light or stop sign and it has a “Bush/Cheney” sticker, do you scream something like, “A**hole!!! You probable think you’re sooooo f**king important that traffic laws apply only to us peons and not to you!” but when you see a car with a “Kerry/Edwards” sticker doing the same, do you think, “Poor guy. Probably racing to his second or third job lest he gets fired for being late”

If you see a “B/C” car with the driver on a cellphone, do you think “Hey, hang up and drive. You’re endangering lives here!!!” and if the car has a “K/E” sticker, do you think, “Poor guy, must be checking on a sick child or parent. Hope all turns out well!”

But really, don’t you back up just a little bit more to allow someone with a “K/E” sticker to merge or turn, perhaps even courteously waving them on, but have a “**** you, you’re on your own!!!” attitude if the car has a “B/C” sticker? Wouldn’t you be more likely to stop to help a stranded motorist if he/she had a “K/E” sticker and more likely to have a “T.S., pal. Get help from you ****ing Repub friends!” if the car had a “B/C” sticker?

C’mon, now. ‘Fess up! I don't mean to the point of "road rage," but doesn't any of this sound just a wee bit familiar?
