Three horrors await Americans who get behind the wheel of a car for a family road trip this summer: the spiraling price of gas, choruses of "Are we there yet?"—and the road rage of fellow drivers. Divine intervention might be needed for the first two problems, but science has discovered a solution for the third: Watch out for cars with bumper stickers. That's the surprising conclusion of a recent study by Colorado State University social psychologist William Szlemko.

ROME (AFP) - Despite projections of a bumper grain crop this year, 33 countries will not have enough food, with Iraq and Zimbabwe among the hardest hit, the UN food agency said Tuesday. Countries with "widespread lack of access to food" include Afghanistan, North Korea, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Haiti, Liberia, Mauritania, Nepal, Niger and Sierra Leone, according to the April issue of the Food and Agriculture Organisations "Crop Prospects and Food Situation" report. Hardest hit, with an "exceptional shortfall" in food production and supplies, are Iraq, Lesotho, the Philippines, Swaziland and Zimbabwe, the FAO said. In eastern Africa, millions "still depend...

Democrats and liberal judges say terrorists have the same rights as you. Democrats will impeach President Bush for spying on terrorists. Democrats will cancel the Patriot Act, terrorists surveillance and missile defense programs. Stop obstruction and the filibuster. Vote for a Republican majority! If you're not an extremist, you're not a democrat. Take the red pill (R). Take the blue pill (D). VOTE!

Is Ted Kennedy going to hold the entire city of Fallujah accountable for violating the Geneva Conventions when they killed four non-military American contractors, burnt and beat their bodies and hung them from a bridge? How are democrats going prosecute the masked terrorists when they beheaded Nick Berg, Paul Johnson and others? Will the democrats voting Geneva Convention and Habeas Corpus rights to terrorists stipulate that when video taping a beheading, terrorists not wear masks, clearly identify themselves and where they can be reached? How would we process Osama Bin Laden if we caught him alive? Would we treat...

No more Patriot Act means Operation Able Danger and 9/11 all over again. Don't let the sun set on the Patriot Act. Call your state senator at 202-225-3121. Freed Iraq. No thanks to Democrat oposition. Cowards cut and run. Marines never do. Stay the course. Peace with God. I believe in a time when Americans had guts. Maximum Effort. Abandon Iraq? NO! Thank you, FreeRepublic, for allowing me to post my work!

Now it is another Vietnam. Again, a nonmilitary branch of the government is sticking their nose where it doesn't belong and demanding withdrawal before victory. America must not abandon another just cause. America must not betray another nation of people who are hoping for freedom and representation. It is the ideal of relativism that says freedom and democracy are not superior to tyranny and terror. Liberals who adhere to this philosophy may need to experience the latter before changing their mind about the superiority of America's way of life. Yet, a proper study of history would make that unnecessary. America's...

'Cause they stand on a wall. And they say "Nothing's gonna hurt you tonight. Not on my watch." Guantanamo prisoners are treated nicer than U.S. Navy SEALs in training. I support Guantanamo Prison policies. www.MoveOnYourself.com Hypocracy in Action.

Newsweek has retracted the story, but the damage is already done. Like many Arabs and Muslims, I believe the incident did take place. I read reports in Arab media of similar incidents long before Newsweek's article came out. [. . .] I can't speak for all Arab Americans, but I do find it difficult to believe the administration's denials. It has a long track record of telling whoppers that would make Pinocchio's nose longer than an elephant's trunk. This leadership fabricated stories to promote foreign military adventures as well as harass and imprison innocent people. It currently promotes torture and...

SHAWNEE, Kan. - Sandra Wetmore, lover of country and supporter of troops, wanted a simple way to show her allegiances. So, like many other Americans, she put them on her bumper, sticking on a yellow, ribbon-shaped magnet that pleads "Support Our Troops" and others promising "United We Stand" and "God Answers Prayers." These magnetic ribbons have become fixtures on highways across the country, a symbol of people looking for ways to show support of the men and women overseas, or of issues such as breast cancer research and autism awareness. "It's very positive," said Wetmore, 59, of Kansas City, Kan....

ROCHELLE, Ill. (Reuters) - Golden mountains are rising out of the fertile farmlands of the U.S. Midwest, a changing landscape formed by huge piles of corn from the most bountiful harvest in U.S. history. As farmers run out of space to store crops at home, they are bringing corn to country elevators, which are now bursting at the seams with grain. The excess is piling up on the ground in farm communities across the Midwest as this year's harvest surpasses available storage space by about 10 percent. American farmers are expected to harvest 11.7 billion bushels of corn and more...

I saw this post on FR earlier, but couldn't locate a way to buy these bumper stickers. They were originally on eBay, but were all sold. I finally found the site to grab them. These are too funny. I picked up a few for my family and friends. Click for the site

Be prepared for "sticker shock" if Kerry wins. For halloween Charlie Brown gets a rock (Iraq?) and on election day we get a lemon.

Have been following the SwiftVets for some time and made it a special point to watch their initial press conference in Washington. Also sent them a fair sum of money. It is hard to tell how successful this will be. However, I think the naysayers are wrong! We need to press on for several reasons and support the Swift Vets with everything we can. The reasons are many: 1. Kerry is the one who made his Vietnam service the hallmark of his campaign. 2. The SwiftVets have every right to be heard by their service and blood. 3. The Dems...

My friend Counterpunch created a thread a couple days ago. He made some Anti-Kerry signs. Said he was working on making them bigger. Well...Here is that thread. Anyways. I made them bigger for everyone to enjoy! Feel free to use these on your Web site Counterpunch! Take these to rallies! Copy these, and paste them into Microsoft paint. Then print em out! They don't look bigger when you click on them...but trust me...once you've pasted them into paint they fill up a piece of paper perfectly!!!! Click on this link for a HUGE SIGN!

What should a political party do to minimize debate on the part of their constituents over real issues and simply pre-program voters to think and act a certain way? Well, first thing, control education at the national level where you can teach kids WHAT to think instead of HOW to think. Secondarily, feed your constituents a series of one-line bumper sticker slogans which sound great but have about as much real meat as your average soy-burger. Can there be any doubt that liberals are the masters of this art? Personally, I have, for a long time now, been very wary...

Can someone give me a clue as to who the performer of Rush's "Peter Gunn" bumper music is? It's the music that starts out with a few bars of funky guitar riff, then Johnny Donovan comes in saying "You're in a Rush-groove, baby!" and then the bass guitar and horns come in. It's a really sweet track and I would very much like to hear the whole song, but, obviously, being bumper music, only 15 seconds or so plays before it gets cut it off. I've already deduced that it's not ELP and it's certainly not Henry Mancini and his...
