Well, setting aside the "weakening America" comment, which could be argued this way and that, I think the whole PC phenomena leaves little doubt they DO want to step in and impose a new set of rules for everyone, and legally enforce them if possible.

"Sensitivity Training" ring a bell? We need to tell people, nay, retrain them, how to feel?

Aside from that one statement and the characterization of those concerned as "enemies", which can be agreed or disagreed with, stated somewhat differently, whatever, I agree with the gist of his post and think it's right on the money: there is a camp threatened by United States political or military success in the world while they are out of power or otherwise diminished in their means to influence or control the public debate.
