It is being careful to say the correct thing that will not offend anyone in the room in any situation. This can be very difficult to do if you do not know all of the people in the room. If this is the case it is best to not voice any strong beliefs. Some people are very easy to offend when it comes to gender, gender preferences, religion, politics of any kind. Stay away from these subjects. Stick to the weather.

"Political Correctness" is the act of changing the definition of an immoral, illicit or underhanded act so that is becomes acceptable.
It is the device of corrupt politicians and became popular during the Administration of President William Clinton... who is credited with saying, "It all depends upon what your definition of is is."

Oh, I would say it is just people all over American being too sensitive to what people might say or think about them.
Their "feelings" were hurt, therefore they have to go to congress and DEMAND they make laws FORCING us simple Americans to conform to their new standards of kindness when the Bible already says to Love thy Neighbor as Thyself.
My fellow Americans, stop taking words and actions too seriously. Just relax.. this thing called living on Earth will all be over soon when Jesus comes back to take His church home.

Here are some good examples... You can't call someone a queer, you have to say they are gay. You can't call someone a baby killer, you have to say they are pro-choice. You can't talk normal if there is a liberal around because you may offend them in any way shape or form! Do you get it???
