Daily Cupcake 'O Justice 60

Let us start our republic with a chain of drug stores, a chain of grocery stores, a chain of gas chambers, and a national game. After that, we can write our constitution.

Daily Cupcake 'O Justice

Bombing is a 'protective reaction,' precision bombing is 'surgical strikes,' concentration camps are 'pacification centers' or 'refugee camps.'...Bombs dropped outside the target area are 'incontinent ordnance,' and those dropped on a South Vietnam village are excused as 'friendly fire'; a bombed house becomes a 'military structure' and a lowly sampan sunk on the waterfront a 'waterborne logistic craft.'

— Henry Steele Commager, The Defeat of America
