Political correctness defined

This in from Mr. Pink.
The following is the winning entry in 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 is 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’

Don’t know if the story is on the level, but the definition is spot on!
Succinct and to the point! Wow! Gotta copy that and use that for my email sig.;-)
Awesome, Mr. Pink.

The ban on political posts and comments on topics not directly related to Japan is designed to avoid bile-laden screaming matches. There are so many places to satisfy the urge to vent about politics around the web, and I simply don’t want Japundit to become one of them.
