Without "pc" this sort of thing would be acceptable. Those who rail against it are supporting it..

It may be rude, but is it justification for being suspended?

Nope. It has nothing to do with the man's job.

That's what douche bags like you always say whenever someone exposes your craven hypocrisy.

Examples?

 

[bripat9643]

What technicalities? We've always chosen a President the way we did this time. Lost a few seats? Yes we did. Seats we could afford to lose, sure we did. But don't pretend it was a bloodbath like the last two midterms. We still have the White House, Congress and the Senate, so do better in trying to make us feel bad about it.

Guy. The people Said "NO!"

Trump has no legitimacy. (And that's even before we find out for sure the Russians rigged the vote.)

If they said "no," then why is Trump going to be inaugurated in January?

 

[bripat9643]

Nothing is "sealed". That's conspiracy theory hokey pokey.

They're treated the same as any one else's academic record.

Or Trump's tax returns.

Really? And just what was DumBama's academic record anyway?

No idea. Who cares?

You do realize that privacy laws protect everyone's academic records?

They also protect your IRS records. I didn't notice you douche bags giving a damn about that.

I already mentioned IRS records. Try to keep up.

So you already knew you were a hypocrite before you even posted it.

"The people did not say "NO' California and New York said NO, the VAST majority of the country said "YES" of the 5000 or so COUNTIES in this country shitbitch won about 500, or 10 percent or so Trump won about 86 percent, The people kicked the SHIT SCUM out of their states, their Presidency, their House, Senate and their lives hopefully forever. where do you stupid arrogant uneducated, indoctrinated buffoons get the idea that all the rest of us like you, or worship the shit you admire? We don't, and we will not be RULED by the shit of the earth. The only thing that helped the current occupant of the suit, is everybody likes him, I personally like his demeanor, and he is extremely likeable as a person even though he is a wash as a President.

Just keep grasping at those ever disappearing straws, you folks are great entertainment. Also keep in mind that the backlash from your regressive BS is just beginning, much of what you think you've accomplished will vanish like a puff of smoke.

Wishful thinking... Trump's already backpeddling on what he promised you inbreds

Keep believing those voices.

Political correctness: how the right invented a phantom enemy | Moira Weigel

Throughout an erratic campaign, Trump consistently blasted political correctness, blaming it for an extraordinary range of ills and using the phrase to deflect any and every criticism. During the first debate of the Republican primaries, Fox News host Megyn Kelly asked Trump how he would answer the charge that he was “part of the war on women”.

“You’ve called women you don’t like ‘fat pigs,’ ‘dogs,’ ‘slobs,’ and ‘disgusting animals’,” Kelly pointed out. “You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees …”

“I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct,” Trump answered, to audience applause. “I’ve been challenged by so many people, I don’t frankly have time for total political correctness. And to be honest with you, this country doesn’t have time either.”

Surely PC is another word for good manners ?

This is the most retarded post that I have seen in a good while, congrats!

What next, feminism is for equality between the sexes? These guys swallow anything, that's for sure.

You have a problem with equality between the sexes?

You mean other than biologically they aren't equal? Why do you think women can't compete in mens sports?

I'm thinking in general - not specifically.

There's many differences between women and men, besides women being physically weaker. Refusing to acknowledge that fact just sets women up for failure in many jobs.

Political correctness is an invention of left. It was started by Lenin

Oh please. Did you know that California has motor voter? Did you also know they give illegals drivers licenses?

Yes, there are some slight markings between a drivers license of an illegal and a DR of a citizens, but do you really believe that some Democrat poll worker wouldn't overlook that marking? And why do you suppose they started motor voter anyway? Because they wanted to make sure legitimate Americans vote every election?

Quit fooling yourself. Democrats will take any vote they can get be they legal or illegal, legitimate or illegitimate.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

As long as he stays faithful about the Supreme Court nominees (and the dozens of others around the country) we will be happy. Should the day ever come where people totally forget about Commy Care and elect you Socialists again, there will be the court to restrain your efforts on trying to change this country again.

Guy, here's the thing. After Trump is done wrecking the economy, you are going to see people demanding universal health care like every other civilized country has.

If people wanted universal healthcare they wouldn't have voted in Trump. If people wanted universal healthcare, the Congress and Senate would be Democrat led today.

If people would decide that's what they want, the only reason would be because your big-eared dope screwed up our healthcare so badly that the damage can't be reversed.

Nope. It has nothing to do with the man's job.

Pretty much every contract of employment I have ever signed or handed out has a clause about personal conduct bringing the organisation into disrepute.

This would clearly breach that and so, yes, it is worth looking at the circumstances.

 

[Mac1958]

I'm a pragmatist. Trump will be an awful president because he's an awful person. Hope isn't a plan.

 

[TemplarKormac]

You seem to have swallowed a lot of anti-Muslim propaganda about a country you don't even live in.

You seem to know a lot about a religion you don't worship.

 

[Mac1958]

In the early-to-mid 20th century, the phrase "politically correct" was associated with the dogmatic application of Stalinist doctrine, debated between Communist Party members and American Socialists. This usage referred to the Communist party line, which provided "correct" positions on many political matters. According to American educator Herbert Kohl, writing about debates in New York in the late 1940s and early 1950s,

The term "politically correct" was used disparagingly, to refer to someone whose loyalty to the CP line overrode compassion, and led to bad politics. It was used by Socialists against Communists, and was meant to separate out Socialists who believed in egalitarian moral ideas from dogmatic Communists who would advocate and defend party positions regardless of their moral substance.

You voted for the white guy. White guys are the ones who sold you out in the first place, jackass.

Lol. You forgot about the black one you voted for. Oh wait. That's racist isn't it?

Well that's too bad.

I dont think thats the whole picture of the problems with political correctness. Example, telling a woman she would look good on her knees is not a political correctness issue, its a basic human decency and respect issue, same as calling a family of blacks a bunch of N _____s, not really a political issue but more a decency (and not wanting to get your ass whipped) issue.
The problem comes when you cant call Pedro an illegal immigrant, might hurt his feelings, lets flower it up and take the criminal part away and call it, Undocumented worker, (even if he isnt working) or just immigrant (almost like he followed rules to get here) or, New American (my favorite since OweMalley invented that)
Its not correct to identify a bank robber as black, or its not ok to mention that the majority of certain types of crimes are committed by blacks, ( acceptable if its a crime generally affiliated with the white race).
I think political correctness is bullshit and sometimes you just have to call things what they are, If Pedro's feelings get hurt by being called illegal, the remedy is for Pedro to go home, and come back properly, the remedy is not for us to make sure we dont hurt his feelings.

 

[TemplarKormac]

But you are a liar. You made outrageous claims about myself and havent backed them up. You are a disgrace.

Now, imagine a liberal walking up to a conservative and making some of the same outrageous claims about something they said, or did, or wore, or voted for. That's PC. It is a real enemy.

No, he was a Radical Christian Terrorist who believes in White Supremacy.

Radical Islamic Terrorists believe in Arab Supremacy.

The demands that the President use the GOP prescribe description of those fuckers is every bit as PC and the Campus Snowflakes you guys demean.

Right, that's why all islamic terrorist are Arabs, WRONG!

You don't buy that any white guy who kills anyone is a Christian terrorist like Boo does? Hmm ... me either ...

Poor Kaz still listening to the voices in his head that tell him I said every white guy who goes on a killing spree is a Christian. So Roof wasn't a Christian?

I don't know, but a Christian terrorist is someone who does it FOR RELIGON. He did it for racism. You think non-Christian McVeigh who did it for Waco and Ruby Ridge was a Christian terrorist too, don't you? I mean he was white, that means he did it for Christianity. It's just a lame attempt to make Christians sound like Muslims when they aren't remotely. Moron

Why are you so upset at a Christian serial killer being called a terrorist?

Easy, because you keep calling him a Christian. No Christian walks into a church just to massacre fellow believers. Roof was a racist. He did it because of race, not because of religion. The sooner you understand that, the better.
