Proof that Give Up works
So, driving around Virginia today and I see this.



I apologize for the poor quality since it was a phone-pic, but let me point out the features of this photograph.

First, the circle around the American flag, we've got a patriot.

Second, the square around the "support our troops" ribbon. I consider this a pretty ridiculous statement, since it isn't like anyone doesn't "support our troops", or that having this ribbon actually leads to more support. But hey, he likes the troops, we get it.

Third, the underlined sticker is a Confederate flag. Note the complete idiocy of putting a Confederate and U.S. flag on the same car, kind of an oxymoron in flag form. But hey, he's a southerner, they think we don't know it's just a not-so-subtle indication of racism (people from the South know that "southern pride" is just a pathetic cover story).

Fourth, and most beautiful, the arrow points to a "Has it been 4 years yet" bumper sticker! Holy crap! The uber-patriotic, Confederate flag loving, support-our-troops guy is asking when we can kick Bush to the curb!

The Republicans are in trouble.
