The mantra, ‘Islamism’, is repeated time and time again, over and over, ad nauseum, ad infinitum, especially by those who are in denial: ‘Islamism’, they say, not Islam, is the source of our problems. It is what feeds the perpetrators of Islamic terror.
The liberal media, in particular, love this word, since it allows them to talk about the problems we face with Islam, without causing offence to Muslims throughout the world. It creates a distinction between good, practising Muslims and their extremist co-religionists. Alas, it is a false distinction!
Our politicians love the term, because it allows them to duck the obvious need to come to terms with the fact that a major world religion – Islam – is out to destroy our way of life, out to destroy our social structure, out to destroy our civilization! In short, ‘Islamism’ is a concept dreamt up by the infidel for the infidel. It lets him off the hook!
The fact of the matter, however, is that the use of the term ‘Islamism’ obfuscates the true problem we face, namely the growth of Islam in the West, and therefore the increasing Islamization of our societies and our civilization. It also obfuscates the causes of the jihad itself – the tool of the Muslim to bring Islam to the rest of the world, the tool to turn Dar ul Harb, the House of War, into Dar ul Islam, the House of Islam, the tool to Islamize the regions of the world which have yet to be Islamized, to Islamize the regions of the world still living, in their opinion, in a state of moral chaos, in a state of pre-Islamic disorder, otherwise known among Muslims as a state of Jahiliyyah.

I’m starting to feel squeezed by all the political correctness being imposed on us by both the Left and the Right. Both sides are constantly trying to infringe on our freedoms by telling us what we can and cannot say or do. I’m getting sick and tired of it. Below are just a few examples of what they are trying to impose on us.
The Left tells us:
(1) Being simply tolerant of all kinds if sexual variants like homosexuals, bisexuals, transvestites, and the trans-gendered is not good enough. We must accept their lifestyles as natural and normal. We must never, of course, say anything negative about the practitioners of those lifestyles. Ideally, we should worship the ground they walk on like the Hollywood crowd does.
My take: I’m all for tolerance and I’m basically a live-and-let-live kind of guy, but this is over the top. Tolerance, yes; forced acceptance, no.
(2) Women are equal to men in every way (except those ways in which women are better or do not choose to be equal). They must be given every opportunity men are given, but must not be held to the same physical or emotional standards. In addition, women are considered minorities (even though there are more of them than there are men), so they must be given special preferences and opportunities that are not afforded to men. Violence to women is always unacceptable but men often deserve it. Any depiction of violence to women is no laughing matter and must be abolished, but depictions of violence to men are usually quite funny. Anything that can be perceived as degrading to women is horrible but most men deserve a little degradation at times.
My take: Any woman should be given the opportunity to prove that she can do any given job as well as a man could do. If she can, then she should be given equal access to that job and paid whatever a man would be paid. However, if she can’t, then she shouldn’t complain about the lack of access to the job or unequal pay. It is every woman’s right to determine whether or not she wants to be treated differently because of her gender. However, no woman has a right to have it both ways. Either she wants to be treated differently from a man or she doesn’t. Also, violence to either sex, except to defend oneself or someone from imminent physical harm, is totally unacceptable.

Chairman is now chairperson; Assemblyman is Assembly person. No more using the words cowboy or cowgirl, landlady, or landlord. The phrase Founding Fathers has been removed from America’s textbooks and if used at all, is replaced with “framers.” Illegal immigrants are now referred to as “undocumented immigrants.”
Realtors have been told by the PC police that the term walk-in closet is inappropriate to use because it discriminates against “wheelchair-bound persons,” and the term master bedroom infers slavery.
Easter vacation is now spring break and Christmas is winter break. You can’t sing traditional Carols in our public schools any more, although you can have your Junior High student take on a Muslim name, bow down to recite prayers to Allah, and then play Jihad.
If you were to read the "inclusive" New Testament translation by the Oxford Press you wouldn’t find the word "begat" because it favors fathers over mothers; evil is not referred to as darkness and light as good because of its racial inference. Parents no longer discipline their children but "guide" them, and children no longer obey their parents but "heed" them. And you would probably be surprised to see all references to God as Father changed to "Father-Mother," and Jesus no longer called Master but "teacher" only. Oh, and Satan is gender-free.
According to Webster’s New World College dictionary, political correctness is: “conforming or adhering to what is regarded as orthodox liberal opinion on matters of sexuality, race, etc. usually used disparagingly to connote dogmatism, excessive sensitivity to minority causes, etc.”
Feminists have “led the way” in the PC movement pushing past their stated purpose of “equality”…to dominance. A simple example brought this into focus for me recently with the pregnancies of our two daughter-in-laws. The baby books now have all references to baby as “she,” instead of “he” that my generation read. Now, if you’re going to go to the trouble of changing all the books, and you are truly interested in equality, then it should read he/she or if you are really insistent, she/he.

A satirical look at the Muslim’s boycott of Danish goods and how they can be truly politically correct in their system of beliefs.
By Azadi Ruh Alam
To the Muslims of the world, who have participated in, or endorse by their silence, the protests concerning the cartoons depicting Muhammed bin Abdullah, and who are engaging in the boycott of Danish goods, this is an appeal from the heart: Please, please demonstrate your rationality and capacity for logical consistency. After all, it is this capacity for rationality, together with the refusal to fall into the inconsistency of a double standard of morality, which separates us humans both from animals, and your average bully, despot, tyrant and psychopath.
Therefore, all the fruits of the inquiring human mind, (which accepts no authority beyond what can be proven by rational means to be true) should also be boycotted. So Muslims of the world, unite and boycott western goods invented and developed by the infidel mind - for example, no more flying in airplanes - try instead to locate that horse with the face of a woman, which you believe, Muhammad bin Abdullah used to visit, his 7th layer of heaven. No more microwaves and gas cookers and air conditioners - use the heat of firewood, and hand held fans - they were good enough for your Prophet, and his Allah in His infinite Wisdom, did not think otherwise. You don’t like images of the human form? No more TV, DVD’s and whatnots. No more phones and cameras too. Cars, motorbikes, bicycles - why do you use them when your Allah’s Prophet got by on camels? Even in emergency situations, when he was battling the infidels of that time, he did not call for a Ferrari car to get him out of trouble, or machine guns to see to the Kaffirs. Newspapers and the internet for the dissemination of facts, ideas, and information and opinion? Well, your Prophet and his God found writing on bones, leaves and bits of parchment good enough. Finally, to the rich Muslim intellectuals and other such elites, don’t come to the West for medical treatments using the latest infra scan and pharmaceutical developments - instead, stick to black mustard seeds as recommended for all maladies by your esteemed Prophet.

When is it ever politically correct for blind students be required to pass a written drivers test in order to graduate?
All students, including the blind, in the Chicago school system must pass a written driver’s test in order to graduate. This requirement only enforces the negative emotion associated with the disability. The blind student will only be reminded of a task they can never do because of their disability.
The logical and the smart thing to do is allow the blind students exemption form taking these required tests.

Gender-neutralizing bill could also jeopardize prom kings, queens.
Soon it may no longer be polically correct to have references to 'Mom' and 'Dad' if Zelda has her way in bill SB 1437 becomes law. This law could potentially require gender-neutral bathrooms in our schools and all references to 'husband' and 'wife' or 'mom and dad' removed from school textbooks as the norm.
The bill SB 1437 is sponsored by Democratic Sen. Sheila Kuehl, a lesbian actress best known for playing Zelda in "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" in the '60s. The legislation would add "gender" (actual or perceived) and "sexual orientation" to the law that prohibits California public schools from having textbooks, teaching materials, instruction or "school-sponsored activities" that reflect adversely upon people based on characteristics like race, creed and handicap.
The end means of SB 1437 would disregard all notions of the traditional family unit. SB 1437 seeks to eliminate all 'stereotypes' of the traditional family so that young children are brainwashed into believing that families with moms and dads are irrelevant.
The resulting effects would be that school districts would likely be prohibited from having a 'prom king and queen' because that would show bias based on gender and sexual orientation. The measure also could affect issues like gender-specific sports teams.
Currently, Campaign for Children and Family is leading the fight against SB 1437 and other related bills being considered in California and through out the U.S. CCF is is an innovative nonprofit, nonpartisan pro-family organization serving children and families in California and America that believes that the natural family needs respect and support, and that children need healthy role models to have the best life possible.

A Republican and a Democrat were walking down the street when they came across a homeless person. The Republican gave the homeless person his business card and told him to come to his business for a job. He then took twenty dollars out of his pocket and gave it to the homeless person.
The Democrat was very impressed, but when they came to another homeless person, he decided to help. He walked over to the homeless person and gave him directions to the welfare office. He then reached into the Republican’s pocket and took out twenty dollars. He kept $15 for administrative fees and gave the homeless person the remaining five dollars.
Now you understand the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

Back in the 1980s, when conservative social critics suggested it was better for the mothers of young children to stay home (instead of consigning them to day-care gulags), feminists were furious.
"How dare you tell women what to do!" they screeched. "The nerve – trying to tell us how to live our lives!"
So, guess who’s now telling women how to live, and excoriating them for thinking independently ? Feminists. Under a veneer of empowerment, the movement has always been fascistic. It’s instructive to now see the sisters goose-stepping out of the totalitarian closet, truncheons raised to smash errant skulls.
Leading the charge is Linda Hirshman, lawyer, professor and scourge of stay-at-home moms.
Recently, ABC’s Good Morning America (which my friends at the Media Research Center call "Good Morning Morons") showcased Hirshman’s rant on two consecutive shows, in segments titled Mommy Wars: To Work or Stay at Home? and How to Raise Kids: Stay Home or Go to Work?

The Washington Times has reported that France has closed some of its soup kitchens in order to not offend Muslims. Depriving the much needed subsidence for needy because a possibility of offending Islam, does not make much sense. The issue centers around those soup kitchens who serve pork, a food that is Muslims find offensive to eat.
In Strasbourg and Nice, food handouts have been banned because they could lead to “public disorder.”
“Schemes with racial subtexts must be denounced,” Mayor Fabienne Keller said.
In Paris, police have stopped charities from serving pork soup at major stations on “administrative grounds,” claiming the soup kitchens do not have the correct papers.
The scene has been repeated all over France in recent weeks after complaints that right-wing groups have been serving “racist” food. The groups giving out the soup say it is nothing more than traditional French cuisine. They say that hundreds of homeless people will go hungry.
Angry Muslims retort, however, that they are deliberately offering ham sandwiches and soup made of pork to discriminate against those who cannot eat the meat for religious reasons.
The groups behind the soup kitchens are not formally linked, but they are associated with a nationalist organization called Bloc Identitaire.
Chantal Spieler, serving soup in Strasbourg as president of the charity Solidarite Alsacienne, was defiant when police ordered her kitchen shut down.
“For as long as there are people who are hungry and cold, I will disobey this unfair decision,” she said.
