I was driving behind Mr. Mom today. He's Republican.

White, old model mini van with tinted windows. In white shoepolish the back window read, (and I paraphrase) M.L.K. was a uniter. But Obama wants to divide with class warfare, race issues, etc. Don't take money from my children! No second term!

And then the vanity license plate read, "Mr. Mom."

I was wondering, is this yet another cognitive dissonance moment?
