Celebrate Conformity

Mark Stein coins a great expression:
DISSENT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PATRIOTI… No, wait, that bumper sticker expired January 20th. Under the stimulus bill, there's a new $1.3 trillion bills-for-bumpers program whereby, if you peel off old slogans now recognized as environmentally harmful ("QUESTION AUTHORITY"), you can trade them in for a new "CELEBRATE CONFORMITY" sticker, complete with a holographic image of President Obama that never takes his eyes off you.
In homage to that, offered for your consideration:

Now available from Cafepress, although the image is too small - I'll have a proper scale later.

I'd start a new tag for "Hate Speech" for this blog, but if 95% of it counts, then what's the point?

  1. I could make an SVG like that if you haven't already? It'd be good practice with Inkscape.

    w/v: hation. The little subatomic particle that really doesn't like any of the others or what they're up to.

  2. I'd buy one if it actually came with the eyes that follow you - I may buy one anyway :)

  4. Just thinking of whenever the next Republican President is elected, and stealing a bit from Lord of the rings when an Orc complains about the food and he is beheaded by an Orc NCO:
    "Dissent's back on the menu, boys!"
    Or perhaps,
    "Dissent is patriotic again!"
    or,
    "Vote Republican and put Americans back to work, starting with the "journalists".
