At Joint Base Lewis-McChord's air show just outside of Tacoma, Washington, this past weekend, onlookers and families saw tactical military jets, high-performance sports cars and risqué models dancing on stage in skintight red, white and blue bikinis, part of what organizers described as a "way to thank the Puget Sound community."

Listen, dredging up phony "moral" outrage isn't just a time-consuming and difficult process of navigating lengthy and confusing doctrines. You also have to meet up with these people, ignore their obvious problems, and agree with them when they fly off the handle about one small minority group or another being the cause of all their problems. It's downright soul-crushing, I tells ya. Nobody appreciates being a good phony moral outrage dealer anymore.
