Political Correctness

Political correctness, you gotta love it. If for nothing more than to laugh your head off at the absurdity of it all.

Political correctness is why the media calls Osama Bin Laden a "freedom fighter". Yeah, the man who is responsible for the deaths of over 2000 American citizens is a "freedom fighter". I'm sorry, wait no I'm not, but Osama Bin Laden is a radical Muslim terrorist. There is no other way to say it. He is a radical Muslim terrorist! How can the media even think of calling someone like that a "freedom fighter"?!?

Political correctness is also why the media calls the maniac that shot and killed 4 cops in Washington state "morally challenged" or an "unsavory character" instead of what he really is; a cold blooded murderer. But wait, think of how he would feel about being called a murderer. He has feelings too you know? I do not care. He is a murderer and there is no way that I would call anyone who kills 4 other people anything but a murderer! But God forbid we offend the man that killed 4 cops or the man responsible for the deaths of over 2000 Americans by calling them what they really are. No, no, we can't let that happen now can we? It's ridiculous!

Political correctness goes beyond these two examples. Oh yeah, these are just two of the millions of examples I could have used (they are also two of the ones that I find to be the most ridiculous and infuriating).

Let me talk about how political correctness is killing our country. There may have been one before I knew anything about politics, but for what I know, president Obama is the most politically correct president we have ever had. Have you noticed that he spent most of 2009 on a world apology tour? He went to something like 30 countries to apologize for the U.S. and how greedy and oppressing we are. Yes, we are all just a bunch of greedy, rich, oppressing warmongers and we are so sorry! No! We are the United States of America! The greatest country in the world and the greatest country the world has ever known! We are also the only truly free country in the world! No other country in the world enjoys the freedoms that we do! And you wanna know something else? Not a SINGLE natural disaster, war, or other kind of catastrophe happens ANYWHERE in the world that the U.S. is not there to help the country that is suffering out! Heck! we even help our enemies! So president Obama, stop apologizing! There is nothing we need to apologize for as a country and I sure never will apologize for being an American citizen!

There is nothing anyone can say or do to me that will ever make me be anything but proud to be an American. I hope it's the same for you. If you feel the same or even if you don't then let me ask you this: why is our president so obviously ashamed of being an American? This is the man who's wife said on the campaign trail that "for the first time in my life I feel proud to be an American". I have a problem with that statement. I don't know how you feel, but to me it doesn't matter who you are, what you do for a living, who your family is, or where you live in this country, if you are an American citizen then you should be proud of it! I don't care if you are a homeless person! The homeless in our country live better than 80 percent of the rest of the world anyway!

So why is our president going around the world apologizing for us? The answer is political correctness. Keep everyone happy, keep everyone appeased, and don't offend anyone. You can't call a spade a spade anymore! We have made it so that no matter what a person has done we can't bring ourselves to call them what they are and all because we do not want to offend them! It's the same thing with other countries, religions, and political systems. It doesn't matter what the country has done or what they stand for, we can't say anything about them that may be offensive, even if it's the truth! Religions are the same way. It doesn't matter if a religion's whole purpose is to exterminate another religion and rule the world *cough Radical Islam cough*, we can't say anything, whether it's true or not doesn't matter, that will offend them! Political systems; same old story. Even if a political system is completely un-biblical and proven to be a failure, we can't protest against it, because it would offend the people who believe in it.

So there you are, political correctness in a nutshell. Don't you love it? (That's a joke guys). I am about sick of it. How about you? Thanks for reading.
