Summers committed the cardinal proverb

 Summers committed the cardinal sin against the academic hard left. He expressed politically incorrect views regarding gender, race, religion, sexual preference and the military. . . . In the minds of at least some vocal members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, expressing such politically incorrect views is the academic equivalent of provoking Islamic extremists by depicting Prophet Mohammad in a political cartoon.

 The whole point of the rally is the take back the night and make is safe for everyone. Sexual assault is something everyone is facing regardless of your religion, political views, race, ethnicity or gender. ... It's non-discriminatory like that.

 Sometimes a politically incorrect satirical cartoon can do some good. It's only a reference to a passage in [Dante's] Divine Comedy. In any case, Mohammed was sent to Hell by Dante, one of the greatest Italian poets.

 Dams are politically incorrect, even though levees are inherently unstable.

 No, no, for a long time, I couldn't look at it, ... I thought that it was politically incorrect, you know.
  Jane Fonda

 [In discussing the poem which now might be considered] politically incorrect, ... . . . people felt that way in 1933.

 In the Reagan administration, in his earlier work, he seemed to try to out-conservative some of the conservatives on issues involving gender discrimination, environmental matters, and individual rights versus the government, ... What I'm interested in is to what extent do his views that he expressed in his late 20s and early 30s reflect his views as a jurist today?

 The views expressed by the Islamic Thinkers Society don't enjoy the support of the mainstream Sunni Muslim community, and especially not in New York. I would be surprised if they have more than a few dozen members.

 The problem is this is so politically incorrect. The public is still dealing with the pre-Roe ethic when it comes to men, that if a man fathers a child, he should accept responsibility.

 Basically it is a very politically incorrect book written by a white man trying to seize his own interpretation and put it into the soul and heart of a black man.
