I don’t know if we’re turning into a bunch of spineless, whiny, wussies or if we’re just going nuts. This endless quest to be politically correct in all areas of our lives is just plain crazy. Take for example this pathological need to change how we normally speak. TheUniversity of North Carolina will no longer use the word…
Debate. According to my dictionary, it means to deliberate, consider, to engage in argument by discussing opposing points, to engage in a formal discussion or argument. Bottom line.

Not content with attacking Christmas and changing the name of our decorated trees to “holiday trees” along with a whole lot of other stuff associated with Christmas, the PC loons are at it again – but this time they’re after – hold on to your seats – Easter eggs! I’m not joking. While Easter is…
As far as I’m concerned, diversity training is like spam. Too many people get it and nobody wants it. I recently read that the U.S. Agriculture Department has hired a consulting firm to advise it on “diversity” matters.
