    Seen on a bumper sticker today:

    “What Would Jesus Bomb?”

    And as an aside I’m keeping, in an informal and statistically utterly not relevant kind of way†, track of the number of pro-Bush stickers on my weary commute, and they seem to be slightly less common than at this time a year ago, but not by much.

    On the other hand, not so many Kerry stickers. No, not so many at all. About as many as the Ratt stickers.

    †Here’s the methodology: See the bumper stickers, think about coffee. Yeah, I’m just as shocked as you that CNN hasn’t called me to head up a bureau.
