Mickey Mouse, football and the United States.

As I walked throught the parking lot of my employer, I saw these three social golliaths afixed to a parked car covered with new rain.

A pair of black foam mouse ears and a foam football hung off the radio antenna of the late model sedan. A U.S. flag decal sat in the corner of its rear window.

Cars as billboards for a consumer culture masqerading as a free country.
