idiot badges... we don't need them

i have always thought that bumper stickers are not much more than idiot badges. you know, hey look at me, i have something stupid to say on my car. for years i have been baffled by some that people seemed to have been compelled to put on their cars. for example during the 2000 campaign some local had put one on his truck that said that Gore was responsible for Hanoi Jane. i was flabbergasted. where could anyone possibly make that connection? now of course in retrospect it seems it was merely a prophetic vision of the various repugs efforts to attack kerry and liberals in general. but really, seriously, Hanoi Jane. at the time that story wasn't even a big deal, except for that super-fascist robert KKK dornan, who set out to burn books, films, magazines, records and such. lovely dupe he was: the o'reilly of the 60's.

yesterday, i saw one that reminded me of how idiotic some people truly are. "this vehicle and road made possible by mining" yeah... sure... and the point is???? the driver of this vehicle is a earth killing fascist pig who doesn't give one iota about any other human being whatsoever. money money money... a road and a car, neither of which are necessary for living. just for money.. and particularly money that destroys the planet... but let's deconstruct it a little more.. derrida honorariums..

the vehicle in question is toyota pick up... so we have not only domestic mining but also overseas mining, which is more pollutive... we have imported oil, electronics, steel products, rubber, and technology. so here is a person, claiming that mining is a key component of his lifestyle and insisting that his is also ours.. ignorantly supporting systems that are detrimental to his own economic welfare... yes indeed.. hello, idiot driving car here.. get a clue, don't tell us how idiotic you are..
