This is related to the stories last week relating how High School literature exams are doing the same kind of editing with the classics - omitting non-PC words...and thus watering down the great books.

So what was the problem with those four words? Or to be specific, what was the problem with that one word?

The anti-Christ said he didn't like it. He finds it "offensive." It hurts his "self esteem."

Was the incident boring? No, it would have been dramatic. Was it too violent? No, the film depicted awful violence. So what was the problem? The problem was that an anti-gun agenda was more important

But...how can a socialist dictator take over the country while it's armed? Had the 9/11 been on schedule....darn Muslims were late, they used the wrong calendar!

Obviously, the editors thought it of no importance that this man had risked his life 29 times to defend our country.

Hey, he might have hurt someone! What's a few Americans when whales are dying?

Yet these facts are rarely mentioned when the subject of reparations is raised. Why? Are the dead and maimed unimportant? Or are they merely inconvenient?

Liberals don't like fact. Facts hurt their brains.

Things have changed. Now an agenda is more important than the truth. Indeed, an agenda has replaced the truth.

If educators, journalists and media moguls tamper with the facts, fraud and bias can creep in.

To some extent this Hollywood bias has always been the case. I think it was 1960 before TV showed a man and a woman in double bed -- together. Before 1960 all TV programs had marrieds sleeping in twin beds.

The stories now seem to be more critical because the left has won the media and there isn't much we conservatives can do about it.

Facts really stopped mattering to Hollywood and the media a very, very long time ago. The universities we lost in the 1970's. The press went to the liberals in the 1960's.

The truth isn't valuable because it serves an agenda. We used to know it...

The author recognizes the successful attempt by the Left at their "agenda" of hijacking and subverting the one thing that has made America America -- the truth. They hate it and America.

It appears either another American Civil War is lurking in the future, or we will be led into an oppressive elitist One-World Government.
