Bon and I both have Obama stickers on our cars.
I can't prove it... but I swear we've had some of the angriest, most aggressive drivers hassle us since we've put them on.

One meathead in a truck from Oklahoma damn near ran us off the road and then waved a casual "hello" with a disdainful look as pulled up next to him at the next stop light.

ugh!

Thank goodness, Obama stickers are the norm here. Actually you have to look really really hard to catch a McCain sticker.

i was gonna make a new thread for this, but i might as well post it here with all the republican hate.

i'm sure this is nothing new for a lot of you, but i just discovered this piece of art in my art appreciation class today. barbara kruger is my new favorite person.

I hope most people watching it have already registered to vote but I wish they would have put a little more distance and/or time between "November 2008" and "Register to Vote" or changed the color or something to make them a little more different.

From Zombie Feminism on Salon:
In this strange new pro-woman tableau, feminism -- a word that is being used all over the country with regard to Palin's potential power -- means voting for someone who would limit reproductive control, access to healthcare and funding for places like Covenant House Alaska, an organization that helps unwed teen mothers. It means cheering someone who allowed women to be charged for their rape kits while she was mayor of Wasilla, who supports the teaching of creationism alongside evolution, who has inquired locally about the possibility of using her position to ban children's books from the public library, who does not support the teaching of sex education.

In this "Handmaid's Tale"-inflected universe, in which femininity is worshipped but females will be denied rights, CNBC pundit Donny Deutsch tells us that we're witnessing "a new creation ... of the feminist ideal," the feminism being so ideal because instead of being voiced by hairy old bats with unattractive ideas about intellect and economy and politics and power, it's now embodied by a woman who, according to Deutsch, does what Hillary Clinton did not: "put a skirt on." "I want her watching my kids," says Deutsch. "I want her laying next to me in bed."
