What is a "cofounder"?

Welcome to 2007. A friend of mine told me, "There is no such thing as political correctness in marketing or advertising". The world, actually, not really the world...more like the scholarly world of Christendom gets all up in arms about political correctness. Anyway, I'm not launching down that path. My life-partner (formerly-my wife) would find this most egregious (trans. kick me in the rear...hahahah...not really, she wouldn't pay it any attention (trans. give a rip), but it gives me a funny line).
However, here's where I'm going on this...In our desire to apply political correctness to every aspect of our life there has risen a debate, and I do mean "risen" because it requires invoking the spirit of the founder...cofounder of The Salvation Army, William Booth. There seems to be concern in calling William Booth the "Founder" of TSA because it ignores the role Catherine Booth (formerly-Mrs. Booth, or in the dark ages, 'his wife') as a cofounder of TSA. At CFOT we have stained glass panels in our foyer...They say, WB "Founder" and CB "The Army Mother". So far they have not entered into the PC debate (trans. whining).
Why do we force our position of political correctness on people who probably didn't even care about such issues. Do we have to change the propoganda? William runs into the house and confers with Catherine (formerly-his wife) and they declare "We have found our destiny". BUT CATHERINE WAS ALSO THE FOUNDER! Okay, any person (formerly-idiot) knows Catherine
was also the founder. For crying out loud (formerly-Pete's sake with no deference to Pete) Catherine was probably the Founder because there's no way a married man could have pulled this thing off on his own. See, nobody has a problem with that statement.
Anyway, if Catherine is to be called "the cofounder" then William must also be a "cofounder" because leaving it as 'cofounder' and 'founder' respectively maintains a power imbalance. Whatever we do we should notify the historians, Begbie and Green. They both refer to William as "Founder". What do they know?
One more fly...what about Railton? I think a better handling of the mess to best reflect all involved might be to call them the "Founding Triumvirate" (formerly-Founder, The Army Mother, and that Crazy Railton Guy).
I must leave. Deana Zelinsky (formerly-my wife) has invited me to participate in the domestic responsibilities around the house (formerly-told me to pick up my underwear and put in a load of laundry). NOW, I best be going or I will have a sore posterior (trans. bum).

Peace
