Politically Uncorrect Food for Thought

In my last blog I commented at some length on the politically correct brigade, and the lengths some people go to so as nobody is offended by anything.

My concluding remark was:-

Isn’t it time we stood up to this faceless bunch of politically correct pratts and told them just what to do with their political correctness?

Well here is what the Australian ex prime minister, John Howard had to say on the subject of bending over backwards for immigrants:-

“IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT”.

Take It or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in
patriotism by the majority of Australians.'

'This culture has been developed over two centuries of
struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom'

'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!'

'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'

We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'

I am sure there are those who will say that the above is racist, but to those people I would say read the last sentence again.

Isn’t it a shame that we have such a weak government, wrapped up in not offending anyone, and so hide bound in civil liberty laws that they daredn’t speak on behalf of countless thousands of the silent majority who would whole heartedly agree with John Howards words, but are frightened to admit their beliefs openly for fear of being branded racist.
