Political Correctness has gone amuck in our society! Remember in November ...

 

 

        This is Priceless!

  

What is meant by the modern term referred to as ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS’.. 

The definition is found in 4 telegrams at the Truman Library and Museum 

in Independence, Missouri. The following are copies of four telegrams between 

President Harry Truman and Gen Douglas MacArthur on the day before the actual 

signing of the WWII Surrender Agreement in September 1945..  The contents of 

those four telegrams below are exactly as received at the end of the war - 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!

 

Now, with special thanks to the Truman Museum and Harry himself, you and I finally have a full 
understanding of what ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS’ really means.
