Caught in the Grip of Political Correctness (From the Washington Redskins to the Washington Whities)

PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS NOW WADED IN ON THE ISSUE OF CHANGING THE NAME OF THE "WASHINGTON REDSKINS".  THE POOR MAN SIMPLY CANNOT HELP HIMSELF, AFTER ALL, MOST OF HIS OLD COLLEGE PROFESSORS TAUGHT HIM THAT THE EVIL WHITE MAN WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PERSECUTION OF ALL THE WORLD'S COLORED PEOPLE.  AND USING SUCH TERMS AS, REDSKINS, BLACKSKINS, YELLOWSKINS, AND BROWNSKINS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.  NOW THE ONE THING HIS PCism WOULD ALLOW IS SOMETHING ALONG THE LINE OF "WASHINGTON WHITIES".  AFTER ALL THE OPPRESSOR CAN BE CALLED ANYTHING WHILE THE POOR VICTIM HAS TO BE PROTECTED AT ALL COST IN THE WORLD OF OBAMA'S POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.

 

 

Have you ever not said something because you thought, “Oh, that would not be politically correct”? Too often this is the course people take because they are afraid of being ostracized by saying something that someone may deem to be offensive. In today’s world, the only people who can get away with saying or even doing something that may be considered offensive are those who understood to be “victims.” If you are not considered a “victim,” you are an “oppressor.” As far as political correctness is concerned, oppressors have virtually no rights. What is interesting about the way political correctness works is that decisions are based on an abstract gut feeling, or emotional virtue, as opposed to solid, unwavering absolute truth. Absolute truth is panned as repressive, violent, and does more to create aggressors than to free victims. Political correctness is like the shifting sands underneath your building, which can collapse at any moment. There is a foundation, albeit one that is constantly changing based on given situations. It all boils down to who is the determined victim and who is the oppressor. Once these groups are identified, the silencing of the oppressor can begin. This is how far society has come in its attempt to bring a utopia to fruition. Unfortunately, that utopia is based not on God’s truth, but on man’s lies.

Political Correctness: A Modern Day Plague

WHEN IT COME TO WAR, THERE CAN BE NO SUCH THING AS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.  AS THE RUSSIAN GENERAL SAID, WHEN PRESENTED WITH A  NUMBER FRENCH PRISONERS DURING NAPOLEONS RETREAT FROM MOSCOW, "I DON'T TAKE PRISONERS, WAR IS NOT A GAME".  IN WAR, THE ENDS DOES  JUSTIFY THE MEANS AND THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS MUST BE PUSHED ASIDE.

THERE IS NO PLACE FOR POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IN THE U.S. MILITARY.

Liberals And Islamic Terrorist

Are liberals more tolerant than conservatives on the issue of radical Islam or do they go through life with blinders on when it comes to this issue. Its seems that the recent shootings at Fort Hood have again brought this division between the right and left into focus again with liberals looking for deep psychological explanations and conservatives looking at the radical religious angle. I do have one question, had the shooter in this case been someone in, a not so mainstream, Christian church would the left be so tolerant of that religion and seek to point the finger elsewhere as they have in this case. I feel safe in saying that would not! The left has little tolerance of Christians, but an abundance of tolerance toward other religious groups. Could it possibly be that Christians do not fit in the so-called big tent of the progressive movement while most all other religious groups do.
I can see no other explanation for the willingness of those on the left to accept the acts of radical Islam as being motivated by deep psychological problems and not religious values. When one stops to thinks about it this explains the little support they show for the war in Afghanistan. They seen to see only a few mentally disturbed individuals as the problem there and not some type of religious fanaticism in the general population. This kind of thinking would led me to believe they would prefer a small army of psychiatrists to be deployed instead of our regular armed forces, possibly some like Malix Nadal Hasan who has proven he can relate to their radical values. The big tent politically correct values of the liberals is getting them into trouble, for in trying to be all things to all people they are quickly becoming nothing to most. This is best shown by their weak stance on the Fort Hood shootings.

Body of 7 year old Somer Thompson found in Garbage Dump

The recent murder of a young Florida girl whose body was found in a garbage dump some 40 miles from the crime scene has again generated outrage from many Americans. An outrage that will soon subside with the passage of time and not return until the next ghastly case occurs. This American this father and grandfather is mad as hell at our politically correct news media, our judiciary who often bends over backward to protect the so-called rights of these murdering perverts and our overall society which in many ways is also responsible for such tragedies.

As I read the many articles associated with this case some things began to jump off the page at me. The body was found at a landfill---just a politically correct way of saying "garbage dump"! Why so nice just call the thing a garbage dump, that is after all how they found the body of Somer by following the "garbage dump trucks". Next they are questioning numerous "registered sexual offenders"--what! We knew about these freaks: including some known pedophiles in the area---give me a damn break--pedophile! They are questioning convicted rapist, and other sexual deviants and perverts and child abusers and child rapist. The perverted sick bastard who committed this sick act may never be found, but when he is you can be assured on one thing and only one thing there will be a long line of defense attorneys waiting to defend him in our failing judicial system. He will be read his rights and given three hot meals a day and have access to cable TV and whatever free medical services he needs. And its safe to say the trial will take a year or more before it starts and if convicted it will be years if not decades before a death sentence is carried out, even if one is given. This is what our great judicial system as come to. Its no longer about the law abiding citizen but has become about the criminal and the attorneys. Attorneys have found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow at the expense of the American tax-payer for we pay their bills for appeal after appeal after appeal! And in the end the pervert may walk free from the jailhouse while the families like those of Somer Thompson cry for justice. Cries that will fall on the deaf ears of an uncaring judiciary and the vulture-like lawyers that hoover around our court houses throughout this once great country.

Its time for a revolution! We need to toss out all political correctness, we need to toss out all judges and start will a totally new slate, we need to change all state laws so that justice can be swift and decisive as the Constitution calls for, finally if necessary we need to amend the constitution to help bring about these changes. But let the people, the common man write the new amendments needed and not some pie-faced lawyers. The language needs to be clear and not subject to judicial review---let the words stand as written and not be subject to the whims of some bleeding heart liberal who knows whats best for us all, but can't even find his own asshole.

Praying For Somer Thompson and Her Family Is Not Enough

Let’s use our anger and our sadness at this latest tragedy to do something genuinely positive for our nation. Child protection should be a national effort from the top down and the bottom up.

When we heard the news about Somer Thompson's body being found in a Georgia landfill on Thursday, a colleague said that she was going to pray for the child and her family. I responded that I would do the same. But after I said that, I thought there had to be more that all of us could do to protect our children. There’s just been too many of these kinds of horrors in the news and an important innocence –childhood innocence— is at stake.

I believe prayer is helpful for Somer’s family and Somer herself, but I also believe that prayer can give us a necessary “time out” from which to consider what exactly is going on in our world and our communities today. Why the loss of innocence and more important what we can do about it.Bottom line: why can’t kids safely walk to school anymore?

First, we have to ask question, could they ever?

I remember as a kid growing up in Queens in the early 1960s. There was a child killer on the loose. The manhunt captured the city for weeks. After he was caught, life went on for me and my friends, but the first life lesson learned was to be careful who you talk to no matter how nice they appear to be.

So in a way, violent reality threatening children isn’t new. But I think all of us can agree –and the crime statistics back this up— the rate and horrific nature of crimes against children is much worse than when many of us were kids and it’s changing the way childhood is lived for the worse. Even after we heard about that child killer, we were more careful, but our innocence was still intact.

Today we often hear the talking head lawyers speak to the issue of the rights of the accused with little consideration to the rights of the victim(s). As a research trained psychologist, I understand their argument, but also understand that if a killer was a one-time child molester, the probability that they will engage in that behavior again is greater than 68 per cent.

So first we have to agree that the danger is out there and ask what we can do to protect the potential victims.

For starters, a blue-ribbon commission of behavioral scientists and criminologists should be established to study this abhorrent behavior and recommendations made on how best to protect our children from these type of crimes. The science needs to drive this one. If there really can’t be a “cure” to this behavior then we have to face the fact that our criminal justice system must make new provisions to accommodate the psychological reality of these perpetrators.

But more important, child protection should be a national effort from the top down and the bottom up.

Surely in these divided times, we can still come together as a nation to protect our children and build stronger communities. What better way than for communities to organize child-protection efforts and our community-organizer-in-Chief to make an America where kids can safely walk to school again a presidential priority? Let’s use our anger and our sadness at this latest tragedy to do something genuinely positive for our nation.

Even after we’ve made serious inroads against this problem, we’ll still have to face the fact that the world will never be 100% safe. This doesn’t mean that childhood innocence has to be lost. The second step after making things safer is to actively restore some degree of innocence to our children and communities through making innocence a priority. read more....

Alan Grayson and Joe Wilson Both Have a Right to Say What They Think

In this case "what's good for the goose is not good for the gander". Both Joe Wilson and Alan Grayson had the right to speak their minds. Two wrongs will not make a right here and the fact that Joe Wison was punished is regrettable, but this political correctness should not continue. Our representatives must be free to speak their minds on the floor of Congress. Its rare that we find out what they are really thinking with all the political correctness going around and outburst such as Wilson's and Grayson's at least tell us where they are coming from. Any existing rules limited the tone of ones statements in the hall of congress should be suspended. Let the American people here the unvarnished truth without the pretty PC frills.

Republican leaders on Thursday called on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to "rein in" Florida Rep. Alan Grayson after he said Republicans want Americans to "die quickly" if they get sick and compared the health care crisis to a holocaust.

"I think it's time for the Democratic leaders and the speaker of the House herself to rein in the rhetoric that she decried just several weeks ago," House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, said.

"And if he's not going to apologize to the American people and to Republicans as he should, really, that's the Democratic leadership's responsibility to have a conversation with their own member," Boehner added.

Grayson's remarks inflamed an already divisive national debate on health care reform, the rhetoric of which has included Nazi symbols, charges of planned death panels and disruptive protests at town hall meetings hosted by lawmakers.

"We ought to be able to have an honest, calm debate about health care ...without disparaging each other," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Thursday, commenting on the latest developments.

House Republicans, seeking payback after Democrats succeeded in voting to reprimand South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson last month for shouting "You Life!" at President Obama during his address to Congress, are planning to introduce a resolution of disapproval for Grayson's remarks.

A spokesman for Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga, who prepared the resolution, said he would not introduce it Thursday.

"Mr. Grayson's actions on the floor were an embarrassment to this Congress and warrant an apology both to his colleagues and, more importantly, to the people of his district who he insulted on the House floor," Price's spokesman, Brendan Buck, said in a written statement.

"It is the job of the Speaker to ensure the House runs with proper decorum, and we would hope that she would not tolerate such behavior," he added.
