I was driving to Quickly's to buy Thai Milk Tea (yumm soo good), and on my way back, the car in front of me had so many bumper stickers on the car. There was many anti-war bumperstickers like NO WAR IN IRAQ, etc. Then I looked for more, and saw an Obama sticker. How's that for irony.

Hm. I sense this is an attempt to be clever, in a mysterious, pseudo-intellectual kind of way. But I'm not sure of the connection; if I recall, Obama wasn't even a member of the Senate when we went to war with Afghanistan and Iraq, and he even spoke out against the war when the Congress passed the resolution supporting the war in Iraq. And he recently released a timetable for withdrawing from Iraq. Maybe I'm dense, but I don't understand how being anti-war and pro-Obama are mutually exclusive beliefs.
