Mel Brooks Blasts Political Correctness: ‘Blazing Saddles’ Couldn’t Be Made Today
Breitbart’s Big Hollywood | May 10, 2014 | John Nolte
In an interview with Yahoo News surrounding the 40th anniversary of his comedic masterpiece “Blazing Saddles,” co-writer/director Mel Brooks blasted present-day political correctness and says he was “lucky” to have made the film in the days when he still could:
“They can’t make that movie today because everybody’s so politically correct. You know, the NAACP would stop a great movie that would do such a great service to black people because of the N-word,” says Brooks. “You’ve got to really examine these things and see what’s right and what’s wrong. Politically correct is absolutely wrong. Because it inhibits the freedom of thought. I’m so lucky that they weren’t so strong then and that the people that let things happen on the screen weren’t so powerful then. I was very lucky.”
In the comment sections and on Twitter, I caught all kinds of entertaining hell (Kos is especially perturbed) for my review of the new 40th Anniversary BluRay of “Blazing Saddles” and for a follow-up piece, both of which stated the obvious: That today’s Left has become a bunch of insufferable, joy-killing, censorious, fascist Church Ladies who would never allow “Blazing Saddles” to be made today and that they will someday try to have the film banned.
It looks as though Mr. Brooks agrees with my first point. That’s because Mel Brooks is a free-thinking liberal, not a freedom-stifling, controlling, free speech-hating leftist…

Shut it down. Turn the clock back 100 years and start over.
Hummmm…I see I’m not the only fan of Blazing Saddles ’round here. I guess we’re all workin’ for Mel Brooks.

Now is a time of great decision/Are we to stay or up and quit?/There’s no avoiding this conclusion/Our country is turning into $hit.
I’m surprised Blazing Saddles hasn’t been banned from the Earth, it sure as hell couldn’t be made now.
