It’s Political Corruption, the war is with ISLAM, or the Crusades part 2. If Bush said this, then we have lost and he is an idiot. For if you can not define the enemy, then you can not fight him.

Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

Bush didn't say that it's not about Islam. He said this and only this:

“because if it’s about Christianity versus Islam, we’ll lose.”

For those who aren't aware, we have Jews, Hindus, Shintos, Muslims, atheists and assorted others on our side against the islamofascists- people of many descriptions who want to worship freely and permit others to do the same. If we alienate those Iraqis and Iranians on our side by giving Ahmaddogonjihad what he wants- a holy war- then our side will become broken and fractured- we will not win.

I agree with your insight. Political correctness or communism is no different than what we see with any pattern of abuse in families or anywhere else. The goal always is to control and silence the victim through abuse which isolates and punishes anyone who would speak the truth. It is institutionalized abuse of a population. These patterns isolate people from one another so that nothing can be resolved. A population suffering from this exists in a high level of grief..

This needs to be said over and over and over again.

Witness Centanni and Wiig.

Gee it is so glad to have brainacs like you to straighten us out. Just pay no attention to the millions of Moslems killed by the Islamo-fascists. Ignore those fighting and dying at our sides in Iraq and Afganistan. It is just another trick when terrorists are arrested and imprisoned in Morocco, Jordan, Eygpt or Pakistan.

We should not believe our lying eyes but geniuses like you.

I thin I'll use that as my tagline for a while. It is a really good line. Maybe I'll put that paragraph on my home page.
