It's politically correct
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: August 21, 2009
Watching two hours of Sen. Spector's recent "town hall" meeting in Lebanon, Pa., I realized that a new chapter in the protocol of political correctness has been written which only applies to elected officials holding "town hall" meetings on health care.
In the service of honoring our time, honored tradition of free speech, elected officials must "suffer fools gladly" and permit any and all grossly uninformed person to vent their anger and rage, scream and shout obscenities, curses, threats, pointless questions or distorted misinformed opinions, all the while smiling and treating the questioners as if they are well informed, rational and raising important, relevant issues for consideration.
Thus, everyone from the flat earth society to the alien abduction survivors will have their legitimate political concerns given thoughtful consideration by the Congress when voting on any health care legislation. God save the Republic.
