This is a strange day and time to be a member of the United States military. At a time when special interest groups beg a sympathetic President to allow gays in the military, the military is taking a hard line stance on Christian speakers. In the past two months the armed forces have rejected public speaking engagements featuring two of America's most prominent Christian leaders. First, Tony Perkins the president of the Family Research Council was dis-invited to speak at Andrews Air Force base. On the heels of that decision, the Pentagon dis-invited Franklin Graham to speak during the National Day of Prayer.

Tony Perkins believes that Christianity is being victimized by political correctness ran amok. "We see a federal judge who's been on the bench since Jimmy Carter appointed her. She's not a new judge. This is a judge who's been around for quite some time. And she decides all of a sudden that the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional. So I do think what we're seeing is an environment that is hostile to Christianity," Perkins said.

There has to be a “problem” with it when your dealing with the “TRUTH”.

Read “The Name” by Franklin Graham. Nice short book, kind of explains it all.

PC is simply the suppression of truth.

Orwell used the term Newspeak in his book, but it the same as political correctness. It is a liberal ideology that is intended to limit free speech. We now have a category called hate speech. Anything that the liberals hate to hear is hate speech. There is nothing more hated than the truth.
