There was a meeting in Albany where Democratic candidates were at a Mosque holding a meeting. All of the candidates were kissing the Muslims' asses except one , who made some remarks about getting off of foreign oil and some remarks about Iraq and Iran. He also said something about the Pledge of Allegiance not being said before the meeting and that an American flag was not in the room. He nearly got beat up for it. Why can't you call those Muslims un-American. Or tell the woman who was there to stand up to her husband and take off her scarf?
Why do a lot of black people make you feel sometimes that you owe them for the sins of our fathers because they owned slaves? Why do some believe that they are owned reparations, and want our government to pay them? Our current government didn't cause slavery, why should they apologize? But a person can't say "get over it". You can't call the Muslim school that was causing problems down in VA, a breeding ground for terrorists all because it isn't politically correct.
I'm not trying to offend anyone. I'm just trying to find out if the U.S. is falling behind because we are trying so hard to be politically correct that we are not recognizing situations for what they are.
