It is an attempt to silence certain types of speech. It is selectively used by the press and by those who imposed it upon us to enforce their views and not morality or right vs wrong in general.
A black can say the 'n' word, but a white cannot. A muslim can speak aginst women's rights, but no one else can.
Certain people are immunized from even legitimate criticism simply because of some factor that is not a content of their character, but a fact of their physical being. PC is a tool in the hands of those who wish to suppress others.

Nothing correct about current politics when entering in the persons bedroom. Who would have thought politics in the 60's would today revolve around personal issues?

No. Political correctness is the future. What we consider to be politically correct now will just be normal in 10 years.

It is when the Government does it, that's why Bush has gotten away with it.
Not to mention the banning of games such as Tag in schools because of fear of a lawsuit. Kids can't be kids anymore.

Yes. Seems as though you can't say anything possibly offensive anymore, or else you have to issue an apology to that person/group.

Of course it is. First, simply because you're white you're a bad guy because you're not a "minority", then Christians lost their rights because the government ... wait there was no reason for that other than you're not Hindu or Muslim.

No one forces anyone to be politically correct. You want to yell racial insults? Go ahead, I'm not stopping you.
