Ambiguous Bumper Sticker

Edited on Wed May-12-04 10:47 PM by central scrutinizer

seen on an older working class kind of car - not SUV or import:

"Bandwagon Patriot" over a waving flag and the date 9/11/2001

My first impression: they were anti-war and were making fun of all the exhibitionists who put flags all over their cars, shirts, coffee cups, etc., then I thought maybe they are really rabid "patriots" who won't acknowledge you unless you were jingoistic BEFORE 9/11.

What's your opintion?

1. What about "Freedom Isn't Free"?

True enough, but I have a hunch that most people sporting this one have no idea that the greatest threat to our freedom is our own government.

2. There is a website -

Hello, and welcome to Bandwagon Patriot! My name is Red, Red Bakers, and I'm a pure, red-blooded, white American, like the rest of you. Before that great man, George Dubya Bush got into office, and before the events of 9/11, I couldn't give two shits of a cow less about this country. I waved the confederate flag, and I spent my days drinkin'. But now I've burned that old stars and bars and went back to the stars and stripes!
As you all know, there's a major threat and this world! It's them damn a-rabs and muslims. They're destroying the dream of a christian america,

3. Gosh, how literate and intellectual

Let me guess, he was a Ph.D in feminist studies, with a dissertation on "Deconstruction of Male Paradigms in the Military: A Serbo-Croation Feminist Perspective On The Phallus and Weapons of Mass Destruction Through the Lens of Focault and Didera and Especially The Scapegoat Theory of Girard"
