Up here in the Land of the Liberal you see bumper stickers all the time. The standard fare is "Kerry/Edwards 2004", "Keep Abortion Legal", "Bush on Mars in 2004" and my personal fav "I'm Pro-Salmon and I Vote". This morning on the way to work I saw a new one I haven't seen anywhere. It went a little something like this: "It will be a great day in America when our schools have all the money they need and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber!"
This one was also accompanied by, "Girls Rule", "Keep Abortion Legal" and a rainbow diversity sticker.
But it was this school-Air Force sticker that got me irritated. What kind of thinking is this - it would be a great day to have a weak Air Force? Huh?! Now, don't get me wrong here, I'm all for schools having the money they need and kids getting a good education b/c those things also keep our country strong, but it would be a very BAD day if our Air Force didn't have the money it needs to keep us safe. Not "great", BAD!!
Just another irritated day in Sleepy Seattle.....
