'Political Correctness' Gone Amuk

" It could be construed as a black day for the English language — but not if you work in the public sector.

" Dozens of quangos and taxpayer-funded organisations have ordered a purge of common words and phrases so as not to cause offence.

" Among the everyday sayings that have been quietly dropped in a bid to stamp out racism and sexism are “whiter than white”, “gentleman’s agreement”, “black mark” and “right-hand man”. (emphasis added)

"Right-hand man?" What, pray tell, is so offensive about that?

"What about us lefties? What about 'left-hand man'?"

"Now just one damn minute. What about us womyn (women)? What about us? You sexist bastard!"

I'll freely admit it. I'm Rick's right-hand man. He looks to me when asking what other people are thinking. Of course, since this is 'just' our local group, nobody really gives a shit, right?

Right?

Um..... Mr Obamessiah, have you checked your latest poll numbers lately? Have you?

It turns out that Rick and I really aren't among your adoring masses. And in spite of what your lapdog David Letterman recently said, we aren't "American Taliban."

I haven't murdered anybody recently. Neither has Rick. We haven't produced propaganda videos as have the true Taliban. But I guess you'd miss that since you're in New York. What? Nothing to say when confronted with the facts?

Here's my all-time favourite quote:

"Go fuck yourself. And then kill yourself before I have to."

Movie? Oh, please. You can do better than that.'

**A note to the left-wing idiots reading this. I am NOT advocating violence against Mr Letterman nor anybody else. But if you idiots can call us names, then fairness dictates that we also must be able to, ne?
