Don’t they mean, ‘Honk if I’M paying YOUR mortgage’?

I’m not sure the anti-housing-bailout camp really thought this one through.

The Tennessee Republican Party last week began selling the bumper sticker shown below. The party website says the sticker is ‘designed to let people express their frustration with the relentless march by the Obama administration and the out-of-control Democrat Congress to enact endless ‘bailouts’ and ‘economic stimulus’ packages that are pushing America trillions of dollars deeper into debt.’

Uh, OK. But if I’ve got one of these on my bumper, doesn’t that suggest to the unaware that I’m a bailout beneficiary -- and proud of it?

Isn’t that just asking for my tires to be slashed?
