Seen Tonight in Taichung

Obama 08 bumper sticker

on a Mercedes Benz of course.

...which is my segue into this story...

I still regret never putting the greatest political bumper sticker I have ever owned on my car in Taiwan. Yes, you guessed it, that would be my

"FÜR FÜRST & VATERLAND"

bumper sticker, proudly revealing that I did indeed support the Prince of Liechtenstein's 2003 referendum to change the constitution of that principality.

and yeah, it is weird to be in a German-speaking country and watch people read the Vaterland newspaper right in front of you. You have to keep reminding yourself that the Swiss (and Liechtensteiners) were neutral and its okay for them to use the word fatherland.
