Okay, wait..."leftist" in the sense they are driving in the left lane or politically? Or Both? I just tend to call them "Rolling Speed Bumps". What I think is more funny is people that can't keep a constant speed. I mean, if you are going to do 70 on a highway quit oscillating between 70, 65, 60, back up to 70, 75, 70, etc...it gets annoying. Of course you won't move over so I can pass you while you do this little dance so I am forced to pass on the right. Then you speed up to 80 so I can't get in front of you and resume my course with the cruise control set. I mean...most cars have cruise control now right? Why on long Interstates doesn't anyone use it? Setting the cruise control is easier on the engine and consumes less gas as the computer is able to regulate everything.

Add to that the people who ride your bumper on the interstate so you pull from the left to the right lane while maintaining your speed via cruise control. Then the guy that was on your but starts to pass, but then matches your speed, but just sits in your left side blind spot. You accelerate to get back into the left lane to pass the really slow turkey you are coming up to in the right lane, you add 5-10 mph to your cruise control and the jerk in the left lane again rides your bumper until you pull over again. The guy then slows down and sits in your blind spot again. These guys, whom I'm beginning to think are just trying to slip stream, are really, really anoying.
