Political Correctness... Part Two


Dear Reader: As this is a Holiday weekend and I really need some time to prepare for an upcoming speaking engagement, I have decided to run a “speech” I gave to a public gathering some two years ago. I will break it down into three parts, to run yesterday, today, and Sunday.


I hope you take the time over this Easter weekend to worship with your family and enjoy the love and fellowship of your loved ones.

To all of you who have become regulars on this site… please accept my deepest and most sincere thanks. Enjoy Easter, and Passover, with your families. We will have plenty of time to argue, with each other, next week.

May God richly bless you all!

PART TWO BELOW:


Political Correctness Part Two:

Political Correctness has gutted our society, emasculated our men, and is well, on the way to turning us into a mass of whimpering, whining, vassals of a world government run by that bunch of moral reprobates, crooks, thieves and brigands housed in that tall building, by the river, in New York, which we refer to as the United Nations. Even their name is a lie!

Our brave fighting men came back from Europe in the late 40’s convinced there was no hell worse than the hell they had just experienced…war! Nothing! So they taught their children that belief, and their children taught theirs, and so on. Somewhere along the way, the reason for fighting that war, which was to maintain our freedom, was lost. This gaping vacuum was not lost on the practioners of Political Correctness. They saw it as the avenue to the domination of a whole society, including the religious and political wings of that society, and they have been busy ever since. And they are winning!

The hippies and the yuppies and the flower children showed up and there were the peace marches, the band-the-bomb marches, the unilateral disarmament crowd, the get out of Viet Nam marches, and so on. They played havoc with our society and our government and our military. And then they disappeared.

Did you ever wonder where those peace nuts went? Well, look at your colleges and universities and public schools and the Congress and state legislatures, on the benches of federal judgeships, in the pulpits and so on. (From the White house to the courthouse to the schoolhouse.) They are there and they are teaching your children that very same philosophy. They are making the laws that cripple our military, that reduce prison sentences for criminals, that keep the ten commandments out of public view, that keep any Christian symbols from the public square, that recycle everything that you can think of until the recycle plants can no longer handle it and the manufacturers find it is cheaper to make new stuff than to recycle. They hug the trees and put our loggers out of business. They band firearms because they LOOK dangerous. They are teaching our kids this brain numbing mush because, if they get them now, they’ve got them for life. They have already captured an entire generation, except for a few old mossbacks like me… and, a few others.

This is insidious. This Political Correctness movement is a cancer eating away the soul of the greatest nation on earth.

And it gets worse! A portion of our society rants and raves about slavery in the early days of this nation and whines that we owe them for their involuntary servitude. While, at the same time, they are willingly subjecting themselves to the slavery of Political Correctness the bonds of which are far more difficult to shake off than those of the 1860’s.

When the venerated Confederate Battle Flag our ancestors fought, bled and died under is denigrated and desecrated as it has been when it was taken from the dome of the Capitol building, in Columbia, SC,and hanged in dishonor at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania, we looked on in horror wondering how this could happen? When our great grandparents are called traitors we gasp is disbelief!

Folks, our ancestors fought duels over lesser humiliations than these!

Our ancestors would have ridden the entire SC state legislature out of Columbia on a rail! I’m not even going to speculate on what they would have done at Gettysburg.

If we have any chance of stopping this steady march of Political Correctness, which is destroying our nation and our society, we’re going to have to get serious.

We have heard many times that freedom is not free. Indeed it is not! It was bought and paid for with the blood of our ancestors who saw what needed to be done to buy our freedom from Great Britain and they did it! Our Confederate ancestors saw the evil of an overbearing government strangling the life from the people of the South and they responded by taking that government to war that lasted for four of the bloodiest years in the history of America. They didn’t win... but they served notice that the people of the South would only be pushed so far before we push back…hard.

They made such an impression on the government that to this day the US Government maintains numerous garrisons of military troops in the south much as the Romans did in their conquered territories.
