Saw the strangest bumper sticker on the way to work today. It showed a waving American flag, overlaid by text reading “JESUS BLESS AMERICA”.
Huh? I thought it was “GOD BLESS AMERICA,” and even then, when I see one of those, I go into Bill Maher mode and think “It’s the very least they could do.”
I really doubt that the number of stickers and ribbons asking for America to be blessed by God, G_d, Jesus, Vishnu, Og, Al’lah or whoever, has any effect on America’s blessings. The guy down the street apparently doubts that God hears his prayers, so he has a yard sign asking, “God Bless America,” just in case God is driving by.
