Can You Get Any More PC? Amazon Now Sells a Copy of the US Constitution with a Disclaimer

I first saw this at the B Cast on Breitbart TV. Amazon now sells a copy of the US Constitution with the following disclaimer: "This book is a product of its time and does not reflect the same values as it would if it were written today. Parents might wish to discuss with their children how views on race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and interpersonal relations have changed since this book was written before allowing them to read this classic work." This edition is published by Wilder Publications.

Head of Homeland Security Worries Too Much About Feelings

Apparently Napolitano at DHS has some strange priorities as shown by this Google news post:
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — The U.S. Homeland Security secretary says she is working to prevent a possible wave of anti-Muslim sentiment after the shootings at Fort Hood in Texas.
"Janet Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday's rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan."

Janet Napolitano apparently doesn't know what her job is. She feels she should make sure my feelings get her stamp of approval. If her department is OK with army majors trying to contact al Qaeda Americans just might need to be more vigilant around Muslims. If DHS has other priorities than protecting me then I guess a lot more of the responsibility falls on me. Maybe a reporter from Fox could ask Napolitano if she has any concern for our safety. The man made and FBI enabled disaster at Ft. Hood has got to have more people than me wondering if Napolitano is up to this job.

'Jungle' and 'Grandfather Clause' Have Been Purged As No Longer PC by Lefty Book Editors

Unbelievable. M-f is cool but God help you if you utter the word 'jungle.'

That Chimp Cartoon: I Had Hoped I Could Just Ignore It

Jules Crittenden linked to a HuffPo story about how the chimp cartoon is causing embarrassment, shame and unhappiness in the staff at the NY Post. That might be true but who knows. Huffpo quotes two Post staffers. And one of the two is an anonymous source. And out of this tissue they construct a story whose main character is the HuffPooish guilt laden PC drama that is the blight of their lives. So at this point I only know something about HuffPo and one, possibly two people who work at the NY Post. So much capital out lay, so little information.
The cartoon is not even funny. I would never have given it a moments thought if it hadn't been for the martyr drama spun by Reverend Al, HuffPo and who ever else. The cartoon has nothing to do with Barack Obama. And the mental gymnastics that have been employed to make that connection have been either sad or ludicrous.
The POTUS chimp nexus is interesting. So many people give loud approval to anyone who will 'speak truth to power' and call Bush a chimp. The moral courage in spite of great danger to life and career involved in that very old joke is admirable. Oh, yes, the intellectual and moral reach required for that has been mastered by only 93% of most third grade classes (the rest are reading books or otherwise improving themselves).
Now maybe we could turn public discourse to something that matters or is reality based. Or a cartoon that is funny.
