This is Why I Hate Political Correctness Easter Edition
2011-04-24 05:08:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Yes, I said the un-PC word, hate. Before I rant, take a look at this Easter themed AP photo: A polar bear breaks a decorated Easter egg with food inside at the zoo in Buenos Aires, Argentina OK, now this is supposed to be a photo of a zoo-held bear getting an Easter treat. Right, now look at the "egg" the bear is mauling. Notice something odd? Yep, you guessed it. The photo embossed on the "egg" treat is that of none other than that Easter favorite Jim Morrison of the 1960s rock band, The Doors. Remember how druggie Morrison is such a huge part of Easter? Yeah... me neither. So, why Jim Morrison? Why else...

2009-07-01 21:18:00 I’m ambivalent about gay marriage in part because, in studying the history of the institution, we learn it is defined by gender difference.

Political Correctness Revisited, Again
2008-05-12 17:00:00 This is a continuation of my mini-series on Political Correctness, it's roots, advocates, and damage to society caused by tolerating it's continued existence. The Origins of modern Political Correctness and PC Speak are easily traced to the activities of a German Think Tank circa 1923. "Political Correctness started in a think tank in Germany in 1923. It was going to be called The Institute of Marxism but in order to hide its Marxist roots it became known as The Institute of Social Research. The purpose was to find a solution to the biggest problem facing the implementers of communism in Russia. Why wasn't communism spreading? Because Western Civilization was in its way with its belief in the individual and that an individual could develop valid ideas. At the root of communism was the theory that all valid ideas come from the effect of the social group of the masses. The individual is nothing. If we look at it analytically, ...

Political Correctness: The Left Eats ItÂ’s Own, Again
2008-03-01 15:52:00 The Left Eats It’s Own, Again. It is always fun to watch the left consume one of it’s own on the altar of political correctness. And I do mean to use “altar” in a religious context as political correctness has become the religion of the left. Case in point: An NPR reporter of 27 years innocently uses the term “Darkest Africa” in a report on President Bush’s recent visit to Africa. One ridiculously whiney listener said they were tempted to stop their car to start a protest. Please. Grow the hell up. This is the perfect example of why liberalism is rotten to the core. Liberals have this overwhelming concern about appearance over substance. What else would explain this ridiculous outrage over the term “Darkest Africa”? Do you want to know what offends me as pertains to Africa? It is United Nations “Peacekeepers” that molest children and rape women with impunity in Africa. THAT offends me. I am offended by criminals and thugs getting rich by stealing the aid that ge...

Clinton/Shuster brouhaha: beyond political correctness
2008-02-09 00:15:00 The Clinton camp, Emily’s List and seemingly all of Left Blogistan are up in arms about an offhand comment MSNBC’s David Shuster made in discussing Chelsea Clinton’s role in her mother’s campaign. The furor led, this afternoon, to Shuster’s suspension by the network. Here’s the clip in question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o2St8qoXx1g So let me see if I can parse what’s really going in this case, and I’ll begin by saying that I have no relevant opinion on Shuster beyond this instance. I don’t watch him and for better or worse he’s not part of my media or news landscape. Let’s start here: what do we really believe Shuster said? Do we think he is suggesting that the Clintons are literally whoring their daughter out? That seems unlikely, right? Do we believe this is what he actually thinks? Do we think this is what he intended to communicate? Or do we understand him to mean there’s something not entirely kosh...
Political correctness..........
2008-01-29 10:48:00 In the state of political correctness, nobody is a "liar" they are simply "verbally superfluous". No one is a "housekeeper," they are "domestic engineers."

My cat does not fear dogs, they are merely sprint practice tools. My cat does not gobble, she eats with alacrity. My cat does not scratch, he is a furniture/rug/skin ventilator. My cat does not yowl, he is singing off-key. My cat is not a "shedding machine", she is a hair relocation stylist. My cat is not a "treat-seeking missile," she enjoys the proximity of food.

On Ignorance and Political Correctness
2008-01-24 19:36:00 In case you missed it (I did, at first), there's been a big hullabaloo over this Cubs ad featuring new Cub Kosuke Fukudome: As Carl mentionned in his headlines this morning, those pesky "bloggers" are all up in arms about it. Why, you ask? Because it features the Rising Sun! The symbol of imperial Japan! That's an affront to America! I suppose if you look for offense in everything, you're bound to find it. And there's really no way to stop the PC Police from making their daily rounds. But for crying out loud, do we have to include BASEBALL ADVERTISEMENTS? My first though upon seeing the ad was that it pretty cool the way the rising sun was incorporated, especially since JAPAN MADE THE RISING SUN ITS NATIONAL SYMBOL BACK IN 1999. Bleed Cubbie Blue suggests that Japanese AMERICANS might be offended by the ad. Personally, I think they're probably still to busy being offended by the whole internment camp snafu to give much thought to a baseball adverstisement. Frankly,...
