Marketplace of ideas
Driving around I saw an improvised sort of bumpersticker, consisting of two slogans on a rear windshield sign:
![]()
I must say, it's a rarity, as these two slogans in juxtaposition are not available as a bumpersticker for sale anywhere that I can find. However, the first slogan -- FREE JUDITH MILLER" -- it's doing pretty well at 13,600 hits. There are of course bumperstickers, T-shirts, and even totebags (the latter sold alongside Hillary coffee mugs.) As to "JAIL BOB NOVAK," I could only find two Google hits for that phrase. One was from this "Bush the Destroyer website (which demands that Novak be jailed for "treason"); the other from a commenter here who wants to jail him for "sedition." Treason is spelled out in the Constitution, and the days of sedition laws are long gone. I don't think the "JAIL BOB NOVAK" meme is much of a winner (no tees yet, folks!), but I do like originality. Speaking of which, that "Bush the Destroyer" site had an amusing Fox News graphic which is also worth sharing: ![]() Now there's a T-shirt idea!

Why do you hate your own country so much? Michael · August 4, 2005 12:22 AM Yeah, Steven. Liking "sexy women wearing Right-Wing T-shirts" which make fun of Commies is extremely unpatriotic! (Might have to investigate you when President Hillary takes over....) Eric Scheie · August 4, 2005 06:51 AM |

We obviously need more bumper-stickers, etc., in opposition to these Communist 45S-HOL3S. One of my favorites from back in the early 1970s showed the Communist/hippie peace symbol with the words "Footprint of the American Chicken". I love those ads with sexy women wearing Right-Wing T-shirts saying things like "Hippies Smell", "Commies Aren't Cool", and "Peace Through Superior Firepower". The style of that!
