    "Political Correctness" Defined

    "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"

    I believe the above quote was originated by a winning entry from an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term.

    I do like that quote as much as Winston Churchill notes, "pick up the terd by the clean end."

    I never said I was the author. I just saw the defined statement, thought it was funny and posted it on our board. I would love to give credit where credit is due but I do not know who the author is. If this was a contest from Texas A&M then perhaps it was a student from there. In any case it is funny and I thought others would enjoy reading it also.

    I guess some people do not feel empowered unless they make a mountain out of a molehill...give me a break.

    Hey AK,

    I went back and put the post in Quotation this way it does not appear as though I am taking credit for it.

    Since I do not know who the author is and placing it in quotation actually gives props to the author, thereby, giving CREIT to the whole situation!

    CREIT... Who knew?
