Quote:It's coming up in just about every discussion, so it probably deserves a topic of its own. 

 

Liberals love political correctness.  They wield it like a rainbow bedazzled Medieval sword any chance they get. 

 

It gets more and more ridiculous by the day.

 

People scoffed when I mentioned in another thread that once the battle over the Confederate flag was done, that it would start to move toward monuments and graves.  We've now seen that happening.  Some have even gone so far as to suggest taking down the Jefferson Memorial (slave owner), and renaming the Washington Monument AND Washington DC because our first president owned slaves.

 

Now we've got historians saying the fleur de lis, the symbol that is almost everywhere in New Orleans, and is the logo for the Saints, is offensive and should be removed because of it's association with slavery.

 

This nation has become progressively more divided, and it's only getting worse as special interest groups continue to look for their grand cause to take a stand for, like taking down the fleur de lis.   There is no end to the way leftists will find things offensive and demand their moment in front of cameras to initiate their protest and put the call out to the masses.  And in every case, there are lemmings who will (using this term lightly) think that's a great cause to get behind.

 

I saw a meme that was put out by the Occupy Wall Street crowd (rebranded Occupy Democrats).  It talked about all of the accomplishments of this president, and one of the items that I really had to laugh about was the fact that Wall Street has nearly tripled in value under Obama.  The same people who protested the wealth and greed and those evil 1% are now being touted for the success they've enjoyed under their imperial ruler.  It would be comical if it wasn't so pathetic. 

 

So, beat me up, PC crowd.  Take your best shot.
