There is a bumper sticker which is popular in US conservative circles and which says "ANNOY A LIBERAL - work hard and be happy".
I'm thinking that this is in need of countering. The following counters have occurred to me, but I am always open for more. I'm eventually thinking I'll take the best ones and set them up for sale on Cafepress or similar.
The beauty of this is that it doesn't really accuse anyone of anything; it merely names the sin, and dares you to condone it. Ideally, the first thing that should pop into the mind of any sincere non-liberal would be "Well I don't do that... do I?"
