It has been gone much longer than the current leftist iteration. Political correctness is foremost about control of the language. The civil rights movement is mostly about offense of speech
Wrong department. That’s the Grammar Police, not the Spelling Police. I belong to both departments and hanged is a good and proper word, if a bit archaic.
I'd love to see little barry get trounced and sent packing.
He's a punk pure and simple.
Just wait until Hussein finds out and someone is going to get a visit from his “secret service”.
NO! Clowns are uni-sexual and omni-racist.
Why, of course it’s racist. You know why? Because the sign criticized The Anointed One!!! Forget about the context, anyone who criticizes the Anointed One is automatically racist according to Obama’s defenders, because The Anointed One cannot be criticized. (smirk)
“When you put on the nose, it SHOWS!”
Barry don’t play that!
Good grief!
It’s not up to the police or the Daily Herald to decide. We either have free speech or we don’t
Really? Well guess what. YOU DON’T and have not had for many decades now.
Don’t beleive me? Write a letter to the editor of your local paper as follows.
My question to the candidates running for office is why neither is adressing the issue of all these wetbacks coming into the country.
Signed Joe Taxpayer (your name)
1. IT WILL NEVER GET PUBLISHED
2. You are likely to get a visit from the Police.
You can echange wetback for any number of other groups or peoples.
Or I copuld give you several dozen other issues that you could write about in plain english that would be rejected as not Politically correct.
The very fact that we have and acknowledge the term Politically Correct in dicates that we no longer have free speech.
Actually, the correct word for executing a person by hanging is “hanged”. The correct form for a stocking by the chimney with care is “hung”. I believe the correct form for executing a stocking by the chimney with care is “plum crazy”.
I wonder if the media is as concerned about the caricature of McCain as a KKK member chasing a caricature of Obama with a baseball bat some guy in Texas is calling a Halloween display.
If SNL and other comedy programs can poke fun at a presidential and/or VP candidate then NO ONE should get on the case of the average american exercising their right to free speech.
I hear ya! I was ridiculed unmercifully once because I typed “ballet” instead of “ballot”.
They have already said. it.
I like it because it is funny. I don’t think it’s racist, but even if it fit the liberal legal definition of something on the order of “hate speech”, I just don’t give a damn what they think anymore. To tell you the truth reading about them, listening to them or answering their outlandish claims is a waste of perfectly good time. Screw them - publish that, Herald!
Not racist at all.
I have put up signs such as:
“XXX is a clown”
It was a Democrat candidate who REALLY acted like a clown. There is nothing racist about it.
I guess some people have never heard one white guy call another white guy Bro. Sheesh
I think the guy should have to take this sign down. It is too little and the nose should light up!
You mean it's electrified??? LOL!
