POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, OLD AMERICAN STYLE-MY STYLE, TOO

[RENCORP]

FINALLY, A DEFINITION OF THE TERM "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS!




For the last six odd years, almost all of the things I wanted to write or say, have been stymied by a recently coined term referred to as "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS"! Although I consider myself rather fluent in the English language, that term was not in my vocabulary. My curiosity got the best of me and I decided to do a little research and after two weeks of chasing fruitless leads, I found what I'd been looking for at the Truman Library and Museum in Independence Missouri. A unnamed source there sent me copies of four telegrams that were between Harry Truman and Douglas MacArthur on the day before the actual signing of the Surrender Agreement. The contents of those four telegrams below are exactly as received, not a word has been added or deleted!

(1) Tokyo,Japan
0800-September 1,1945
To: President Harry S Truman
From: General D A MacArthur
Tomorrow we meet with those yellow bellied bastards and sign the Surrender Documents, any last minute instructions!

(2) Washington, D C
1300-September 1, 1945
To: D A MacArthur
From: H S Truman
Congratulations, job well done, but you must tone down your obvious dislike of the Japanese when discussing the terms of the surrender with the press, because some of your remarks are fundamentally not politically correct!

(3) Tokyo, Japan
1630-September 1, 1945
To: H S Truman
From: D A MacArthur and C H Nimitz
Wilco Sir, but both Chester and I are somewhat confused, exactly what does the term politically correct mean?

(4) Washington, D C
2120-September 1, 1945
To: D A MacArthur/C H Nimitz
From: H S Truman
Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!

I find all of this hard to swallow. Starting with the fact one doesn't send telegrams to military officers in the field, to the use of the term "mainstream media"

It's not even a good parody.

Blah blah, blah. There you go again.

Back then, that was the only sure fire method a President had for around the world communication.

Back then they had radio, and encrypted messages and shit.

Sorry, Amazon porn purveyor, you are totally out of your league.

Lame response.

All overseas radio transmissions would have been sent Morse code, encrypted, translated, pasted to telegram forms, rushed to the recipient from the radio room.

This - is just more hair splitting, distraction, and whining.

The message verbalization stands on it's own merits.

Like I say, it's not a very good parody.

And, you are not a very good critic.

Depends on the quality of work I have to work with.

Meh.

A truly great critic will reach into his word smith bag of tricks, and transcend reality with a narrative based upon a two word comment, weaving verbal thrusts and parries into a veritable Homer and The Iliad tower of magnificent achievement that stuns the world with the height of verve, vigor, emotion, triumph, tragedy, anger, and love all wrapped up in less than 500 words so it also qualifies for Readers Digest.

THAT, Sir, is a worthy critic. You,

Sir, are not a critic.
