I don't think Mrs. Obama has been the first First Lady to visit a disaster site, nor do I think that that reveals a loss of reasoning ability. And it is often morally right to "side with minorities". But I do wish Brother Chuck had someone to tell him when his daily rants make no sense.

WHO DIED and put you in charge of perceived enforcement of political correctness?. The Thought Police (thinkpol in Newspeak) are the secret police of Oceania in George Orwell's dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. It is the job of the Thought Police to uncover and punish thoughtcrime and thought-criminals, using psychology and omnipresent surveillance from telescreens to find and eliminate members of society who were capable of the mere thought of challenging ruling authority.

I congratulate Observer 4:26 on being a well-read person. Brother Chuck still makes no sense. He put the same entry posting today on a completely unrelated story.
