Great Wisdom

The following is the winning entry in 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."

R. J. Wiedemann LtCol. USMC Ret.
"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds." Samuel Adams

Thanks for bringing it back to the limelight!
