Dumbest and most patronizing bumper sticker - ever.
"Support our military troops" (with American flag icon after it)

:wtf:

What other sort of troop is there? Did the creator of this sticker listen to the song "Super Trouper" and get rather the wrong impression?!?!?!

3. A bumber sticker for the kind of people...
That spit when they talk. Occasionally, a tooth is mixed in with the effluvia. It's green and brown and well past its shelf date. ;-)

11. Thank you...
I've been looking for that reference for a 'murder of crows' and an 'unkindness of ravens'.

7. "Just Pretend Everything Is O.K."
That is the best slogan I've seen on one of those ribbons.

9. and while we're at it...
Who the fuck doesn't support the troops?

I drove past Walter Reed yesterday. Both sides theirs and ours were holding signs and waving flags. Both sides want to support the troops: theirs and ours. It's like some idiotic game on who can say they support the troops more.

Maybe I'm wrong but is there a significant group of people that are screaming "fuck the troops?"

12. I have a "Support our troops" ribbon on my van.
It also says "Eliminate tax cuts". I have elicited several flip offs from that sticker. Just can't imagine why?

15. The middle class likes to believe they arte affected by any tax cut.
What amounts to a nickel to them is tens of thousands, when not much much more, for the wealthy.

Pity they don't know how to do basic math... or give a damn about how our country works... but nobody's perfect.

21. no, the lamest one I saw with Utah plates
was "another union member for Bush." I just drove by her and started laughing. I was thinking of having a bumper sticker made to counter it with "a union member for Bush is like a chicken for Col. Sanders.":rofl:

24. Better yet hand them a card
with the local army recruiting station on it and tell them to enlist their kids if they support the troops so much. Michael Moore done that to the congress and should have seen the repigs run for the hills.
