I have seen the most frightening t-shirt ever.

It is, naturally, at Wal-Mart.

It has an American flag.

With two kittens in front of it. White fluffballs with vacant eyes.

And below that is inscribed "Stand beside her and guide her."

No, I don't know what that is supposed to mean in isolation (it barely makes sense as part of that damned song, "God Bless America"), where it sounds vaguely inane and paternalistic.

It would be difficult to overstate the degree to which I was disturbed by the existence of this shirt.

Except that it wasn't there the next day.

So maybe someone bought it.

That is all.

"Confused kittens love America! Aren't kittens cute?!"

Perhaps the mentality of "my country, right or wrong" is similar to "my kitten, cute or hideous."
