“My kid is an honor student & my president is an idiot” (bumper sticker)

“Mu child is an honor student” has been a popular bumper since the 1980s. “My kid is an honor student & my president is an idiot” (or “My child is an honor student; My president is a moron”) is one parody bumper sticker. “My child is an honor student, my president is a moron” was cited in October 2004 (when George W. Bush was president).
 
Other “My child/kid is an honor student” bumper stickers include “My kid beat up your honor student,” “My kid got your honor student pregnant” and “Your child may be an honor student, but you’re still an idiot.”

There are too many bittersweet bumper stickers (and you need to see the full color reproduction), but a few we kept chuckling about were: “My Kid is an Honor Student: My President is a Moron”; “We are Creating Enemies Faster Than We Can Kill Them”; and “Fine…I Evolved, You Didn’t”—and how about “Fighting for Peace is Like Screwing for Virginity”?

Some of the better slogans are pretty funny:
 
“If you can read this you’re not the president.”
“Vote Republican. It’s easier than thinking.”
“Somewhere in Texas a village is missing its idiot.”
“My kid is an honor student. My president is a moron.”
