2. hmm
yeah i think it could be misconstrued. especially as a bumper sticker, when you only have time for a quick glance.

at first glance it just looks like a repulsive purple heart bandaid. casual onlookers might think that's what it is.

3. easily misconstrued
people will either think you're anti-Kerry, or that it's some sort of gay pride thing (not that there's anything wrong with that)

graphics are very muddled, especially for 40 MPH reading

7. During the Republican Convention, some delegates wore
band-aids with purple hearts on them to ridicule John Kerry's 3 purple hearts.

8. I was actually aware of that,
I just thought that a far more effective bumper sticker could be something like This is why I detest the GOP:, followed by the woman sporting the purple heart band-aid. :7

6. Would be a bit clearer...
... if the upper line read "Offended by GOP Chickenhawks?"

Cheers.
