What happens when the Americans With Disabilities Act collides with political correctness?

Blind passengers are being ordered off buses or refused taxi rides because Muslim drivers or passengers object to their ‘unclean’ guide dogs.

Democrats should remember the words of Yogi Berra, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."

This story may come from Great Britain, but don’t kid yourself. It will happen here soon enough.

The Daily Mail UK has this story of liberal constituencies in conflict:

Blind passengers are being ordered off buses or refused taxi rides because Muslim drivers or passengers object to their ‘unclean’ guide dogs … George Herridge, 73, a retired hospital maintenance manager, told the Daily Mail he was ‘stunned’ to be twice asked by bus drivers to leave their vehicles because of his guide dog Andy, a black Labrador.

Mr Herridge, who lives with wife Janet, 69, in Tilehurst, Reading, said that on the first occasion two years ago, he got off at the request of a Muslim driver because some Muslim children on board were ‘screaming’ because of the dog.

He found himself in a similar scenario in May last year, when a Muslim woman and her children became ‘hysterical’.

Which constituency will the liberals side with when this happens in the United States? Those with physical disabilities or those with mental disabilities?

Under normal circumstances, we’d say liberals would always support the side that’s against religion. But since we’re talking about Islam here, all bets are off.

A heartwarming video that will almost make you forgive Massachusetts for Kennedy & Kerry

The scene was Fenway Park in Boston on July 4. The Red Sox had invited a disabled young man to sing the Star Spangled Banner.

The scene was Fenway Park in Boston on July 4. The Red Sox had invited a disabled young man to sing the Star Spangled Banner.

It only took a note or two for the crowd to realize he wasn’t a professional singer. He missed a word or two, laughed nervously and then…a sell-out crowd of 40,000 joined in and helped him complete the anthem.

It’ll bring tears to your eyes. But not in the same way that Kerry and Kennedy do.
