ah, the irony of it all

picture the scene - while crossing the bay bridge on the way back from rehoboth, we were driving behind a big, gas guzzling american-made pickup with a bumper sticker that read -

"i'll keep my gun, my money, my faith and my freedom and you can keep the change"

"keep the change" has become the rallying cry against everything obama - everything that this person, and those like him, believe represents big government and socialism. that got me thinking - so this guy doesn't want government intervention, yet he was speeding across a publicly funded bridge, in his truck that wouldn't exist save a government bailout of the company that produced it; a truck that needs heavily subsidized gasoline to run?

yep, i'll keep the change!
