Political Correctness Run Amok

    The progressives have always been in the business of promoting "equality" by avoiding racism, sexism, and discrimination through their obsession with being politically correct. However, I can't remember a time where they have been as obsessed with it as they are right now. Several recent stories come to mind: the associated press will no longer refer to illegal immigrants and will be calling them "undocumented immigrants", the words "gay marriage" have been replaced with "marriage equality", and in the state of Washington "master bedrooms" will now be called "owner bedrooms". Oh, and we can't blame the Boston terrorist attacks on Muslim extremists. That would be discriminating against the entire religion of Islam and unfairly blaming millions of innocent people. Let's ignore this hypersensitive liberalism for a moment and take a look at the facts. An immigrant that came here without proper documentation IS an illegal immigrant. Gay marriage is a marriage between two members of the same sex, just as heterosexual marriage is marriage between two members of the opposite sex. Master bedroom? Are you kidding me? Has anyone ever associated a master bedroom with slavery and male dominance over women? Probably not since the 1800's. But all of this nonsense shows what progressives are all about. They aren't about equality, fairness, or ending discrimination. They're about gaining power for their political elites and getting people to join in with their radical agenda. They want to create conflict and make uninformed people angry at Conservatives and label us as evil, racist, homophobic, and bigots. Here's the link to a story regarding the abolition of the term "master bedroom" in Washington http://www.gopusa.com/freshink/2013/04/22/the-politically-incorrect-master-bedroom/
