Once again, it’s not what is being said, but who says it. Leftism in action.

Exactly right. Imagine if a conservative walked around wearing a button that said: "Hiroshima was a Blast!" It would not be interpreted merely as bad taste but as evidence of evil.

But the thing is, Hiroshima WAS a blast, so that statement would be factually true.

And in poor taste.

But the bombing saved the lives of countless Americans, so I can't get worked up about it. Until I've had my coffee, anyway.
