Brooks’ rejection of ‘Far Right Revolution’

Re “The Grinch factor,” Opinion,

Dec. 16

Rosa Brooks uses a very clever way to defend political correctness through the “Who Consti-Who-tion.” She says it’s time to reject Fox News and the “Far Right Revolution.”

I am glad she sees it as a revolution, because she and her ilk can’t imagine how fed up the vast majority of people in this country are with all this PC foolishness. For decades we’ve been led around by our noses by these far-left whiners.

Who are these people anyway?

I don’t know anyone who is offended by the Pledge of Allegiance or a Christmas tree, etc.

What really needs to be rejected is all this extreme political correctness, because we’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore!

To generate such a sanctimonious diatribe, Bill O’Reilly must be doing something right. Merry Christmas, Rosa!

I loved Brooks’ unique commentary on the current Christmas controversy. For most of my life, few things have simultaneously amused and irritated me more than the attempts of many Christians to present themselves as a persecuted minority.

Now O’Reilly has hit a new low in his manipulation of those whose faith is so fragile that it depends on such trifles as the proper holiday -- oops! -- Christmas greetings.

As he counts his profits, however, he might want to note that Brooks isn’t the first to denounce such nonsense; someone beat her to it about 2,000 years ago.
