The epidemic of political correctness continues to spread and infect every crack and crevice (can I say crevice?) of society. Among the “out”spoken leaders of the whiny, sissy, look-at-me-but-don’t-say-anything-or-I’ll-cry-or-file-charges groups is the homosexual community. How is it reasonable to have “Gay Pride” parades and demand special focus and attention… and still take umbrage when someone uses a word associated with their lifestyle? Should their bumper stickers read: “We’re Here, We’re Queer, Get Used To It… But Don’t You Dare Say It!”?
82 year old comedian Jerry Lewis has once again used the word “fag” in public and is naturally once again the subject of “queer ire for the straight guy.” AP News My Way details the idiocy:

Following a news conference in Sydney Friday, Lewis, 82, was asked by a Network Ten national TV reporter for his opinion on the Australian nation sport of cricket. “Oh, cricket? It’s a f– game. What are you, nuts?” Lewis replied. The network broadcast the comment in full on its Friday evening news bulletin along with footage of Lewis handling an imaginary cricket bat with an effeminate gesture. wrote:

In a sane world this would be funny to some, not funny to others, but damn sure wouldn’t be news and damn sure wouldn’t inspire “extra-special” groups calling for official apologies or attacking 82 year old comedians! This, however, is not a sane world. This is a world in which Obamorons are on the verge of taking the greatest nation on the planet and remodeling it based upon failed socialist policies. This is a world with organizations like GLAAD exist to draw attention to and apparently protect from attention, the homosexual lifestyle.

New York-based media discrimination watchdog Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, or GLAAD, as well as gay rights group Australian Coalition for Equality called for Lewis to apologize again. “Last year, Mr. Lewis apologized for using an anti-gay slur on live television, and expressed his desire to raise public awareness about the impact of this kind of defamation,” GLAAD president Neil G. Giuliano said in a statement. “Clearly he did not take the lessons of that unfortunate episode to heart because, in an effort to be humorous, he has once again managed to offend and defame the gay community,” he said. “For someone so well known for helping others, Mr. Lewis shows an incredible lack of dignity and respect when he makes comments that contribute to a climate of intolerance,” Giuliano added. wrote:

As the great Andrew Wilkow says, “the loudest voices for tolerance are often the most intolerant.” This phenomenon is evident in the statement made by GLAAD. This incredibly narcissistic group whines about “a climate of intolerance” in a statement that is in itself, intolerant! Perhaps those GLAAD agents for one-way tolerance can use their previously occupied closet space to store their intolerance of free speech.
