Untold History On Political Correctness : Who Knew?

Here is some history that has never been told. I found it very enlightening and informative if not some what puzzling. Still it seem to have some pre-twentieth first century knowledge of what is happening today in our country. Very Amazing stuff.

Yikes!

We are constantly hearing from the press that Trump is too opinionated and not using political correctness. So what is meant by the modern term referred to as 'POLITICAL CORRECTNESS'..

The definition is found in 4 telegrams at the Truman Library and Museum in Independence, Missouri.  The following are copies of four telegrams between President Harry Truman and General Douglas MacArthur on the day before the actual signing of the WWII 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.
