    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 bastards 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 shit 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.
