View Full Version : Define "Political Correctness"
There is an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. This year's term was: "Political Correctness."
The winner wrote:
"Political Correctness: a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
Houston, I smell a solution....

Leave to an Aggie to carve it down to a point.
And since when is any politician correct; I say again?

I think I posted this a while back. Have used it as a sig line from time to time and still do in some other forums. Will see if I can find the source.

Howard,
Your correct, it's not new. I received it in one of those emails that had been forwarded 30 times(don't you just love the AOL crowd). Sorry I can't help..

After searching on Texas A&M website and going through pages and pages in search on their site, I have come to the conclusion there is no such contest at Texas A&M.
Clever definition though, where ever it came from.
