12. Great story.

I have one as well:

I was in an audio store in Brookfield, WI last weekend exchanging my satellite receiver for one that worked. My wife and I both had our K/E pins and hats on. The guy that greeted us at the counter says, really quietly, "Time to un-select Bush, huh?" "Of course," I said.

I told him I had an extra button somewhere, but had forgotten to bring extras, so I took off my own and gave it to him. He kind of hid it away before anyone else saw it. I'm guessing his superiors must have been Shrubbers.

During the exchange, we made some political small talk, all in hushed tones. I didn't press the conversation because I felt like it might cause him trouble. Soon enough, I had my new receiver and we were heading for the car.

About the time we reached the front door, the guy calls out: "Hey Tim! Un-select Bush!" When I turned around, he gives me a thumbs up and I see he has the K/E pin on his shirt!

We will NOT be silenced come November.
