Get Off This

This Week's Discussion Question is dedicated to the woman in the white SUV bearing the green "Wellstone's dead, get over it!" bumper sticker (next to "Solve World Hunger - Starve Michael Moore"):
Would you put a "Dale Earnhardt's dead, get over it!" decal on your vehicle?
Please keep the discussion civil and do not wander off into "...and drive v-e-r-y slowly through the parking lot at Talladega, tough gal."

Discuss.

I must say that after the harried workday I had and the heavy traffic on the commute home, the subject of last night's TWDQ post is damned lucky that I encountered her and her dumb-ass bumper stickers last night instead of tonight.

She'd have gotten an earful of that incivility for which we on the left are supposedly so famous.

We live in a bumper sticker culture. We crave bite-size sound bytes, capsule reviews, everything on the run.

I really enjoyed reading the preface of "American Theocracy" by Kevin Phillips:

Kevin Phillips has concluded that we are caught in the traffic of history. All we can do is read each other's bumper stickers...
