Subject: Political Correctness 


Before the actual signing of the WW2 Surrender Agreement in September 1945..  The contents of those four telegrams below are exactly as received at the end of the war - not a word has been added or deleted!   

     

(1) Tokyo,Japan   

0800-September 1,1945   

To: President Harry S Truman     

From: General D A MacArthur   

           Tomorrow we meet with those yellow-bellied bastards and sign the Surrender Documents, any last minute instructions?           

     

(2) Washington, D C   

1300-September 1, 1945   

To: D A MacArthur   

From: H S Truman     

           Congratulations, job well done, but you must tone down your obvious dislike of the Japanese when discussing the terms of the surrender with the press, because some of your remarks are fundamentally not politically correct!   

     

(3) Tokyo, Japan     

1630-September 1, 1945   

To: H S Truman   

From: D A MacArthur and C H Nimitz   

           Wilco Sir, but both Chester and I are somewhat confused, exactly what does the term politically correct mean?   

     

(4) Washington, D C   

2120-September 1, 1945   

To: D A MacArthur/C H Nimitz   

From: H S Truman     

           Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!     

   

   

Now, with special thanks to the Truman Museum and Harry himself, you and I finally have a full understanding of what 'POLITICAL CORRECTNESS' really means.....
