abscess nancy

i think herman cain has got to go, and that really he has no serious position on anything, though he does have a certain insouciant charm. but the pc bullshit needs to be packed up into a capsule and launched off-planet. everyone seems upset by the extreme sexism of calling pelosi 'princess nancy.' please. since when is 'princess' a sexist slur? it does seem to acknowledge that nancy is a woman, and i suppose that even that is too much for the people who want remote control of everyone's tongue. on behalf of their demographic segment people are in a position of continual simulated outrage about absolutely anything. they hope to control the way we all talk, and they hope that that will actually be the end of oppression. their position is that words make the world, so liberation from oppression can be achieved by editing. it's a version of what we philheads might call postmodern linguistic idealism: the position of richard rorty but without the actual intellection.
