Go, Team America!

The best part is its description:
"The question is, can the idea behind a ribbon be negated by its form? Is its elegant modesty obliterated when it starts to extend past the edges of a coat lapel -- when, in fact, it's not even made out of ribbon anymore but instead is a nickel-plated pin or a design on a bracelet or a gigantic appliqué sharing space on a bumper with four or five of its identical brethren? We may say yes; Uncle Sam says no.
"The past few years have taught us three things about commemorative ribbons: that they can never be too big; that there's no cause that can't be ribbon-ized; and that you can never wear too many (and neither can your car). Shirk your ribbon-collecting and -displaying duties if you will, but know one thing: it means you hate America."
My favorite magnets are the ones that boldly proclaim "I love America more than you do, you unpatriotic hippie peacenik communist terrorist Dixie Chick!" or "Support our troops so that I may continue to buy gas for my unnecessarily large SUV! Suck it, environment!" or a hearty, "I support some random factory in China that is making a killing from manufacturing these babies!"*sigh*
The site also features many more amusing t-shirts, like this one. There are also shirts for younglings. Travis and I agree, if we had a kid we would definitely buy him or her this shirt.
We are going to have strange children.

These are the best. I think your offspring would appreciate the fact that you used them as a means of expressing your sense of humor. :)

I loathe the ribbons. I actually had someone get MAD at me because I would not put a hot green ribbon for organ donation on my car. It's not that I don't believe in it. Its on my license. But I don't want to put crap on my car! It takes down the value and instantly makes your car look more used. I also am not hot on putting a Jesus fish/cross/what have you on the car. I love Jesus. My life should say it. Not neccesarily my bumper. Plus, if I am having a really bad day and flip someone off, then they can go "One more Christian, being a hypocrite...".
No thanks.
