Political Correctness Backlash

Good to hear journalists on the Left and Right are coming to Juan Williams defense on being fired for his harmless remarks.

Sad that in America today you can be fired for speaking a truthful, if perhaps unenlightened, opinion. Contrast this with the fact that NO ONE has gone to jail for the entire financial mess, no one at the Fed or Treasury department was fired, no one was fired for the intelligence failure of 9/11 or the WMD situation in Iraq. No one gets fired for any of these absolutely massive breakdowns and failures -- and a journalist gets fired for being asked his opinion and stating it.

You wonder why the mood in this country is low. Because of bullshit like this.
