Definition of Political Correctness
The Winner Is ....
There is an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the
most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. This year's term
was "Political Correctness." The winner wrote:
“
Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a
delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous
mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely
possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Went to see James Taylor and Carole King last night at The Verizon Center in DC. Surprisingly GREAT time! I tell you: Ms. King at 68 years old did not miss a beat!!! Towards the end, they played "How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You". Cameras doing "crowd shots" and as the patrons saw themselves they would wave and act foolish. Then the camera spotlighted Nancy Pelosi who was right up at a table by the stage (the $1,000.00 seats). You should have heard the boos!! Put a damper on the end of the evening....
That did my heart some sweet!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Just went from C&S to this. That heart sweet has become an anvil in the pit of my stomach:
