Political correctness is not only attacking our First Amendment and attempting to destroy our ability to communicate, it is putting the lives of Americans in jeopardy. <\/p>\n
There are politically correct illnesses such as AIDS and breast cancer. <\/p>\n
AIDS is not like, for instance, prostate cancer because a specific act must be committed before you contract AIDS. <\/p>\n
A study by the New England Journal of Medicine suggests that diseases such as AIDS and breast cancer have strong political lobbies, such as the Red Ribbon campaign and covering everything and everybody in pink, and receive more federal money. <\/p>\n
Dr. Ernie Bodai, a surgeon from California, got a special stamp issued that raised $50 million to fight breast cancer, which is laudatory. But he has been unable to win a similar prostate cancer stamp. He stated, The prostate cancer community is 10 years behind the breast cancer groups in terms of being acknowledged and receiving funds from the National Institute of Health. Hopefully, since this injustice occurred, he was able to receive that stamp. <\/p>\n

Prostate cancer strikes more men than breast cancer strikes women every year. The latest figures I have in prostate cancer 235,000, breast cancer 215,000 incidence rate per 100,000 is 172.3 to breast cancer 135.1. <\/p>\n
Political correctness took hold when Obama was first elected and made his apology tour in the MIddle East, refusing to acknowledge that America is the greatest nation on earth. Everything is relative, is how he related to his country. Now on our campuses, some even refuse to use male or female or anything gender specific. God help us if they begin running the country. <\/p>\n
Oh, was I allowed to say God? <\/p>\n
