The following is the 2007 winning entry from 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.'

Wow, Old Mike - 44 days and not a single contributor. Let me drop a penny into your tin can. Looks like this thread should be called Daft Definition or Deaf Definition.
