I present to you the case for the abolishion of the "No War For Oil" bumper stickers on automobiles, wherein the Hippie Gas Guzzler drives four blocks to the QFC and back.

EXHIBIT A: The Hippie Gas Guzzler at QFC
Hippie Gas Guzzler at 66th & 11th
EXHIBIT B: The Hippie Gas Guzzler at Hippie House
Hippie Gas Guzzler at 70th & 11th
EXHIBIT C: "Walk The Talk", "No War For Oil"
They Doth Protest Too Much
EXHIBIT D: The Voyage of the Hippie Gas Guzzler
hypocrites

If you drive a car, it doesn't fucking matter how many anti-oil bumpers stickers you put on it. You still support oil. At this point I sort of half-suspect that Hippie House is a permanent straw man set up by the conservative agenda.

Further: A "walk your talk" bumper sticker is unbelievably, painfully ironic.

Heh. Ouch. I've often passed that car and wondered what kind of mileage it gets.

I'm reminded of a post Cam made the other day, dissecting the book The Future of Ice, whose author flies around in jets to discover and write about the damage being done to the ecosystem... at least partially by jets.

dude walked with ease across the QFC parking lot, which, it should be noted, constituted a significant percentage of his overall distance traveled.

Man...even if they had the argument of "too many groceries to carry...," if he/she/they claims to be THAT against Bush and oil, take the stupid grocery cart 5 blocks, return it the next time you go to the QFC...based on your route map, I'd say he/she/they took any supposed cart 20-25% of the distance anyway...

Do you know anyone in this house, or is it just that the car is that recognizable (I've seen it many times at the hippie house myself...)?

Perhaps they are LaRouchians?

Yeah, in Bellevue I see a lot of GIGAZMIC SUVS with "no war for oil" bumper stickers.

I make it a point to use it in everyday conversation. You should too.

Perhaps it runs on the tortured souls of dead conservatives; they're surely greasy enough to use as a petroleum substitute.
