Bumper sticker observed today on RI Route 4:
Say No to Foie Gras
I probably would say 'non' to it...but kind of a futile bumper sticker, no?
While we're in the Futility Department, how about Say No to Gitmo? A slightly bigger cruelty problem, perhaps...although the geese wouldn't think so.
This kind of displacement of concern is like the steroids in baseball hearings. Performance-enhancing substances in baseball is the mote in MLB's eye. We're worried about what a few highly visible people are doing, and how it might influence our youth to misstep.
Meanwhile, the policy of torturing our enemies to extract 'evidence' is the two by four in the eye of our country. Nobody's worried that we're becoming a nation of callous thugs?
