[Thanks, Alyssa in Texas! ~Don]

Sometimes you are encouraged about our country’s future when you see something like this.

Specifically, 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 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.”

(This guy has nailed it.)

Talk about hitting the nail squarely on the thumb! I rattle my tongue for this definition!
