Can anybody explain this one?
Driving south on I-95 in Virginia this weekend, I spotted the following:

A Prius, with a Bush/Cheney '04 sticker on one side, a Rush/Hannity '04 sticker on the other.

1. Priusi have become status symbols not unlike hummers.
They have attained an exclusivity therefore not attainable
by the commoners.

3. True. I guess I failed to connect the relative unavailability of the Prius
to the probability of RW use.

I heard recently there's a thriving resale market for 'em. If you have one that's relatively new, you can get almost twice what you paid for it, folks are so eager to own one.

4. It's either that or...

... the liberal member of the family is firmly in charge
of everything, but, the bumper stickers.

In which case I predict a call to "Frank's Divorce Counseling
and Chain Saw Supply, LLP." for them in the near future.

2. At least it was a Prius
The freeps are helping the environment whether they like it or not. Let's remember to count our blessings, however small they may be!
