So let me get this straight. The nuclear slaughter of a couple hundred thousand civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not just something that is supposedly acceptable to defend in polite company. No, it’s not even open to debate. Notice that the war party, the MSM, the Clintonian Democratic establishment and the neolibertarians all agree that Jeremiah Wright is the second coming of Osama bin Laden. But what is one of the clips they keep referring to to demonstrate his evil anti-Americanism? Why, this man is so crazed, so hateful, that he condemns the dropping of nuclear weapons in World War II. So it’s not just that, in the backwards world of US warfare statism, nuclear mass murder is defensible – no, those who disagree are traitors and enemies of the country.

It really is baffling. Is the US government the only one on earth whose killings over the years must not only be defended, but shielded from scrutiny and criticism?
