First we had political correctness. Sorry, I refuse. Now we have,  
apparently a need for political perfection. Well, after the last seven  
years I can understand the frustration. What I cannot understand is  
how otherwise intelligent people can get so sucked into inanity. If we  
keep up this extreme pickiness and polarization we will never recover  
a semblance of our greatness. How can we hope for a true leader if he/ 
she must not feel the freedom to speak as they honestly feel?

I am not looking for a semanticist. I am looking for someone who is  
able to bring us together. I am seriously wondering if we will allow  
such a thing.
