God is my co-pilot
As if pro-life license plates (now on the road in ten states) weren't bad enough, South Carolina has approved these cross-bearing license plates. Apparently anyone opposed to them is closed-minded:“I didn’t see a constitutional problem with it,” said Mr. Grooms, a Republican who is chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee. “We have other plates with religious symbols on them and phrases like ‘In God We Trust.’ Just because it’s a cross, some very closed-minded people don’t believe it should be on a plate.”

I would love to see a whole series of "I Believe" license plates available to South Carolinian drivers, with the "I Believe" slogan and a selection of pictures, such as a plate of BBQ, a bag of boiled peanuts, a video poker machine, or a profile of Richard Dawkins.

One could always get a plate reading "EVOLUTION"
