I didn't verify the authenticity but enjoyed anyway.
If you wondered what political correctness is, here is the best definition I have ever seen, uttered by one of our best presidents ever.
This is Priceless!
What is meant by the modern term referred to as ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS’...
The definition is found in 4 telegrams at the Truman Library and Museum in Independence, Missouri. The following are copies of four telegrams between
President Harry Truman and Gen Douglas MacArthur on the day before the actual signing of the WWII Surrender Agreement in September 1945. The contents of those four telegrams below are exactly as received at the end of the war - not a word has been added or deleted!
(1) Tokyo , Japan
0800-September 1,1945 To: President Harry S Truman
From: General D A MacArthur
Tomorrow we meet with those yellow-bellied ba****ds and sign the Surrender Documents, any last minute instructions? (2) Washington , D C
1300-September 1, 1945 To: D A MacArthur
From: H S Truman
Congratulations, job well done, but you must tone down your obvious dislike of the Japanese when discussing the terms of the surrender with the press, because some of your remarks are fundamentally not politically correct!
(3) Tokyo, Japan
1630-September 1, 1945 To: H S Truman
From: D A MacArthur and C H Nimitz
Wilco Sir, but both Chester and I are somewhat confused, exactly what does the term politically
correct mean? (4) Washington , D C
2120-September 1, 1945 To: D A MacArthur/C H Nimitz
From: H S Truman
Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently
fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and
promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to
pick up a piece of sh*t by the clean end!
Now, with special thanks to the Truman
Museum and Harry himself, you and I finally
have a full understanding of what ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS’ really means...
