Bumper Signage

Filling gas today, the young woman in the other lane said, "I like your sticker. As I admired my American Flag, NRA, Wyoming Bucking Bronc Riding Cowboy, Harley Davidson with the red roses for the wife, and Bush/Cheney in 04 stickers, she said, "The Bush One.....I wish there were more."

Truth is I don't see many bumper stickers, political or otherwise. Anyone agree or disagree? Have they gone the way of the 'Baby on Board' signs?


Boycotts, Jane Fonda, or Patriotic Fries

Says my esteemed fellow poster down in the local forum upon seeing rudeness by a wannabe First Lady: "I've bought my last Heinz product."

I'm not even sure how many Heinz products I use other than ketchup. Words matter. Politeness counts. Matter and count enough not to support people who categorically label others as scumbags just for disagreeing with them. I'll think about whether I want to boycott or just let these people go away on their own.

I can boycott. I have't seen Jane Fonda in a movie or tv show since the early 70's. The last was Barbarella at a drive-in picture show. I heard "On Golden Pond" was excellent. I missed it. But, I recall seeing film footage of Jane Fonda and an NVA Officer. She gets no support from me.

On a lighter note, tonight we stopped at one of my fav fast food establishments. A place you can have it your way. Unless you're in the drive-thru and accidently order a Big Mac.

So we are sitting down eating and watching Fox News. I happen to look at my large box of of fries. I didn't know our boycott of things French had had so much effect.

In red, white and blue I see "Right to Fries." No where do I see the word "French." I learn I have the right to dip, stuff, stack, have them my way, even eat them like a normal human being.I guess boycotts do affect people and business. Even if it's all in fun!

I'm HighPlainsView and I'm reporting for duty.

Flip-Flop -- what did he say?

Flip-Flop -- what did he say?

Kerry addresses the National American Legion Convention. I look at my long ago broken down BS Detector no longer velcroed in place on the shelf. Its case has partially melted. It's needle permanently pegged on overload from exposure to the various fictions and propaganda told by some of the Lefties at the Rocky Mountain News Forum.

I read that Kerry wrote in his book, "The New Soldier" the following:

"We will not quickly join those who march on Veteran's Day waving small flags, calling to memory those thousands of lives who died for the 'greater glory of the United States. We will not accept the rhetoric.We will not readily join the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars......" ---- John Kerry "New Soldier"

I see my broken down BS Detector give one more last gasp (beep) and flip-flop over onto its top.
