Help DC Get a New Motto

The District of Columbia is trying to fix its image, so it is spending $150,000 to choose a new motto for the city.  

A Washington Post article on the search for a catchy slogan made the mistake of permitting reader suggestions. Some of the initial proposals:

*Where Some Tourists Come to Die

*Zimbabwe Without the Passport

*Eat here and get shot

*The Most Self-Important City in the World

It would be great to come up with a motto for DC that captured Washington’s role as headquarters of the war machine & contemporary imperialism.   Suggestions are welcome at my blog here.
