when you say "people", are you referring to african-americans,latin-americans, native americans, italian-americans, arab-americans, indo-americans, Irish-americans or were you just referring to "Americans"?......yeah, I think we ARE all getting way too politically correct. (mental note to me...."stop being so gall-darned sarcastic"......hmmmmmm~

Some are still convinced that if they carefully explain their beliefs to the "other side" that they will say "Wow, you're absolutely right. How could I have been wrong all these years? I've totally changed my mind."\n\nOthers are just tired of taking shots from the other side and want to point to them as being stupid, uninformed and locked into a false belief system.

Yep!\n\nIt's getting kind of crazy. People is going to post so many non-sense question...\n\nBut it's cool though... They are doing it for the points. Just like I'm answering you :)

That is the ideal isn't it.\nBut the culture has changed, very radically.\n\nWhen fact and reason end,  slogan and name calling begin.\n\nBesides there are diffrences of opinion, its just that most uneducated people only respond to  soundbytes without  fact or information to back it.\n\nwhen you get into a soundbyte style of politics, only the greater good is lost.\n\nI want to talk to intellectual opponents who present fact, figures and argue a good case...\n\nwhen that doesn't happen  i take what i get and give as good as i get.

This is politcs.  Don't you know that when the polls are good politcians reference them all the time and when polls are bad they totally dismiss them.  Spin and politics!!  They all do it.

Nothing is wrong with being politically correct--to an extent.  Some people take it WAY too far though...

I think it is being blown way out of proportion by the media!

Everyone wants to be right. They think if they say it loud enough or often enough, every else will agree with them. Politics are based on our beliefs not our knowledge.

Fear of the thought police!!! Honesty used to be the best policy until every word you say became scrutinized for any hint of offensiveness - in any meaningful discussion there are generally at least two sides so someone is going to find something to be offended by.  In truth political correctness creates roadblocks to the dynamic thinking and creative dialog that has served human kind since the beginning.  As long as there are people like you asking the question we are not doomed - keep questioning everything it is the only way to achieve wisdom.

A very good question. Because U.S. it becoming obsessed with being politically correct, and it will get worse I am sure.

Yes, I am sick of the foolishness and name calling on people involved in the government. I myself do not "name-call" people I do not like in politics, because I find it inmature and ignorant. Instead, I find that it is much better to find logical points against them then use naive name calling.

there's too much of this liberal/conservative, right-wing/left-wing, democrat/republican BS that it has caused people to stop thinking about the main point, which is \nPEOPLE'S RIGHTS.\nas soon as that starts then everyone can be happy again. let's start by all becoming libertarians, shall we?\n\ncheers!

I am a Liberal, but the political correctness has truly gotten out of hand, it is to the point now where it actually infringes on freedom of speech, and that is what we are all about defending!

Personally, I don't think so. I think over the years, people in power altered things to reflect their own beliefs.
