I do...it's hard to keep track of it, things change so quickly - for example, now you're not supposed to say Merry Christmas, you have to say Happy Holidays...I can understand that not everyone celebrates Christmas, duh, didn't most of us put on those concerts in elementary school where we showed how people in other countries celebrate the holidays? I think we know that other cultures either don't observe it or observe it differently, but political correctness dictates that "Christmas" be removed from everything. I think it's kind of sad.

Yes , and it should be removed and stored in a vault-- that correctness was invented by the DemocRATS to get more votes in helping the weak minded to the tax raising, money stealing Democrat way

me. It's getting to the point that being politically correct is more important than being right.

i find the term "political correctness", devisive. politics is such a hotbutton issue nowadays we need to come up with a more neutral, non-offensive term. and don't get me started on "correctness"...in this age of moral relativism, can anyone really be correct?

there is no political correctness. politics itself is a grey area. there is no pure good or pure wrong. politics = law. civil law is only by humans, trying hard to make the world in order. but as they make more laws, they make it more complicated and more ambigious to identify the correct decition. but political correctness has flaws because the accused or the criminal can escape the punishment by alibies or by money.

ME!!! you can't say anything, do anything...it's messed up, schools are even taking it up, I like to call it celebrating mediocrity...no one wins, no one loses, every ones the same...isn't that great!!!??? (I'm being sarcastic) We need to embrace being individuals...winning and losing is a part of life, it's how we deal with winning and losing that is important. These are the things that we use to learn in school...it's really really stupid...

Yep, I do. Especially in schools, where kids learn it's more important to feel good about themselves than to pass or work hard.
Fail the kids if they don't the work, dammit. And use red ink.
