Okay, you want an actual PC tooth-grinder? Here’s one from the UK.
...and that rhymes with “P” and that stands for “pooooool.”

Evidently, to liberals, contracting for murder (abortion) and bigotry are okay, if they’re done in private.

Americans would see only a modest rise in health care costs under the Senate’s plan to extend coverage to 34 million people who currently go without health insurance, government economic experts say in a new report…

Yet another Perhaps the Primary Reason* to Mock the PC!

[Dr. Theodore Dalrymple]

Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

A MAN had to have his penis cut free by SEVEN firefighters after he got it stuck in a steel PIPE.
The crew used a METAL GRINDER for the delicate 30-minute operation, after doctors at Southampton General Hospital tried to release him without success.
The medics failed because the restricted blood flow had caused the man to become aroused.
A crew from the Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service used the four-and-a-half-inch grinder to cut the pipe free on Tuesday morning.
Afterwards, the patient was given an anaesthetic and although his willy was left bruised and swollen it was otherwise unharmed.
The anxious man aged about 40 failed to explain how the pipe had become stuck.

He should have used the old “he fell backwards on to his kitchen table while hanging curtains....happened to be nude at the time of the mishap excuse.”

Oh my: Brown 48, Coakley 47?

As was the case in the Gubernatorial elections in New Jersey and Virginia last year, it looks like the electorate in Massachusetts will be considerably more conservative than the one that showed up in 2008. Obama took the state by 26 points then, but those planning to vote next week only report having voted for him by 16…

And make sure you follow the link to the PPP site and read the comments, there are some great points made and a lot to glean from them too....

MI5 failed to alert America to intelligence highlighting the extremist links of the Detroit plane bomber because of concerns about breaching his human rights and privacy.

The spy agency withheld its files on Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab from Washington until after the near-catastrophic Christmas Day attack because of guidance from its legal department.

MI5 has privately conceded that as early as 2006 its surveillance operations had picked up “multiple communications” between the 23-year-old Nigerian student and suspected terrorists in Britain.

Mr President, may I speak to you for a moment? Thank you, over here, please.
Look, I know you have a “thing” against the Brits for all that African colonial tyranny stuff. Well, so do the rest of us Americans. Remember 1776? 1812? Just get over it. We did.
No, no, please. I’m getting to my point.
You may have heard that we used to have what we called a [makes air quotes] “special relationship.” That means we shared intelligence assets and information with the Brits more than with anybody else in the whooole wide world. Yes, they gave lots of important stuff to us, too. There are loads of good stories about how that saved the our bacon more than once. If you want, I’ll read you one at bed time.
Okay, here’s my point. You gotta get back in bed with… hear me out.  You gotta get back in bed with those guys. This isn’t about you. They need to tell us all the icky stuff about the bad people, m’kay?
You will? Promise? Not campaign-promise promise but for-real promise? Good.
Yes, you may raise your chin, again, and go back with the other boys. Off you go. Ta-ta!

Geezusmaryanjosephonastick, isn’t there any adult friggin’ supervision around here?

UPDATE:
Y’know, I was thinking what I’d say to Ramirez about this wonderful cartoon, if I met him in person. How could I show my admiration while demonstrating my keen insight and appreciation of his skill? Eventually, I considered the question that inevitably pops into one’s mind, if one thinks about the cartoon for a while:
“If this were your door, would you let the bears in?”
Yeah, stupid question… to you or me.

Then it hit me — Ramirez’s real point: the Zen question:
“If you were a Gorebot who used the polar-bear argument to sell AGW, would you let the bears in?”
•Yes. The poor bears are in danger. Therefore, you’re an idiot.
•No. You know polar bears are really quite deadly, and the polar-bear thing is just propaganda. Therefore, you’re an exploitive hypocrite.

So, we learn, then, that the Zen question is not only a question, it is ultimately the answer — yes, a Kafkaesque tribunal where the accusation also serves as the proof of guilt.

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said his country suffered after invasions during World War II and he will “stand to the end” to get full compensation [and] he’d write to U.N. secretary General Ban Ki-moon to ask for compensation for damages caused to Iran during the war, and for use of its territory and resources by allied powers ...
Ahmadinejad reportedly also warned that Iran may demand similar compensation for the first World War.

Harry Reid is apologizing this morning for casting candidate Barack Obama’s light skin and lack of “Negro dialect” as selling points in his run for president.

According to the new book “Game Change,” Reid “was wowed by Obama’s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama—a ‘light-skinned’ African American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,’ as he said privately.

Awfercryinoutloud.

Hey, what’s Vice-President Joe “Mr Smooth” Biden got to say about this?
Oh, yeah, “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

Yeah, watching that jackass, Reid, hoist on his own petard and libs wallowin’ in their own hypocrisy is kind’a fun, but they’re screwin’-up the language and makin’ it impossible to speak one’s mind in public.

Here’s a look at the new census form. Man, the gender thing is getting more and more confusing.

Obama says, ”Reid acted stupidly. I accepted Harry’s apology without question. ... As far as I am concerned, the book is closed.”

[Bill Clinton said], “A few years ago, this guy would have been getting us coffee.”
Oh, yeah, taken wayyyy out of context. I’m just pretending to be Olbermanic.

Here’s an approach to fighting the encroachment of the federal government that I hadn’t thought much about. Might be time to dust off this old piece of Jefferson’s (PBUH) wisdom and insight, The Kentucky Resolutions of 1798.

There is indeed nothing new under the sun. The answer to the federal government’s current expansion far beyond the limits set by the Constitution lies in Thomas Jefferson’s response to the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798 [which blatantly ran afoul of the First Amendment]. ....

Over the course of the past two hundred and twenty-two years, we have forgotten many of the basic principles that were fresh in Thomas Jefferson’s mind when he drafted the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798. These resolutions lay out the proper response to the federal government’s unconstitutional actions and are quoted in the sections below. [a must-read]

Yeah, I know. Bein’ a 21stC-Jeffersonian is difficult, especially if you’re also a Jacksonian-Reaganite (square peg, pentagonal and octagonal holes).

It looks like the fix is in on national health-care reform - and it all may unfold on Beacon Hill.
At a business forum in Boston today, interim Sen. Paul Kirk predicted that Congress would pass a health-care reform bill this month.
“We want to get this resolved before President Obama’s State of the Union address in early to mid-February,” Kirk told reporters at a Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce breakfast.
The longtime aide and confidant of the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who was handpicked by Gov. Deval Patrick after a controversial legal change to hold Kennedy’s seat, vowed to vote for the bill even if Republican state Sen. Scott Brown, who opposes the health-care reform legislation, prevails in a Jan. 19 special election.
“Absolutely,” Kirk said, when asked if he’d vote for the bill, even if Brown captures the seat. “It would be my responsibility as United States senator, representing the people and understanding Senator Kennedy’s agenda. . . . I think you’re asking me a hypothetical question but I’d be pleased to vote for the bill.”

Few have considered the Jan. 19 election as key to the fate of national health-care reform because both Kirk and front-runner state Attorney General Martha Coakley, the Democratic nominee, have vowed to uphold Kennedy’s legacy and support health-care reform.

But if Brown wins, the entire national health-care reform debate may hinge on when he takes over as senator. Brown has vowed to be the crucial 41st vote in the Senate that would block the bill.

The U.S. Senate ultimately will schedule the swearing-in of Kirk’s successor, but not until the state certifies the election.

Today, a spokesman for Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, who is overseeing the election but did not respond to a call seeking comment, said certification of the Jan. 19 election by the Governor’s Council would take a while.

“Because it’s a federal election,” spokesman Brian McNiff said. “We’d have to wait 10 days for absentee and military ballots to come in.”
