Levi Johnston - the father of Bristol Palin’s baby – contends that his “ex-mother-in-law”, Sarah Palin, would say ”where is my retarded baby”.  Sarah and Todd Palin have a “special needs” child, and Sarah Palin denies that she ever referred to her baby that way.  Frankly, I can see Sarah Palin saying something like that “tongue-in-cheek” (in jest).  Having a sense of humor about these things is normal human behavior (as in the heading of this post).

Nevertheless, I digress.

For decades now in the United States, minorities and their advocates – most of which are Liberals – have long protested the use of certain derogatory terms as socially unacceptable.  The most common example are racial slurs like the “N” word.  This drive to “scrub” the English language of these terms was labeled as “political correctness” – a concept that references the agenda to create a social sensitivity to members of our society who are not part of mainstream America.  Conservatives have routinely criticized “political correctness” as liberal nonsense, and ironically, Rush Limbaugh referred to “liberal activists” as retards .  Now you want to talk about the pot calling the kettle black.  Moerover, where was Sarah Palin’s outrage regarding on his political incorrectness?

Recent reports have surfaced stating that Rahm Emmanuel, President Obama’s White House Chief of Staff, was addressing a group of Liberal Democrat politicians last summer regarding their intended strategy to use “attack ads” against Conservative Democrats, and referred to them as “Fxxking retarded“.  Now Sarah Palin has said that Emanuel should be fired.

I guess the irony of a “kike using ”politically incorrect” language while addressing a group of liberals is lost on Palin.

P.S.  For those of you who are offended by my use of a politically incorrect term, you too are missing my point.
