DEAR HELOISE,

My friends are having a heck of a time removing the “Dissent Is Patriotic’’ bumper sticker from their Prius. Do you have any suggestions as to how to get this done in a way that will neither harm the environment nor leave any trace that it was ever there?

And can those bumper sticker people make these sentiments available in magnet form so that my friends can simply tout this sentiment when they agree, and remove it when they don’t? It seems unfair to make them buy a second car to drive when there is a Democrat in the White House, so as not to accidentally give the impression that they think that, well, dissent is still patriotic.
