The phrase "political correctness" has a reputation of being associated with liberals, so when cons blame political correctness that's nothing more than a backhanded way of saying it's all the liberals fault.
They also only ***** about it sometimes. Any con that tells you that they never like PC they are lying. Did you hear any cons complaining about PC when Ed Schultz was suspended for comments he made about Laura Ingraham? How about the comments Martin Bashir made about Sarah Palin?
They use the PC thing so much that I've tuned it out.
I've been audited before. Big deal. Maybe it was just his time
And if Hopkins kids didn't want him giving the commencement address, they have that right. It's THEIR day, not his.
I never said they didn't have the right, just that it explains why he seems paranoid. And yes, audits can happen, but in the face of the IRS targeting and all the people who thought it was just a routine audit suddenly find that a lot of donors to conservative groups got audited for the very first time after their names were divulged, it sure seems fishy.
Ahem, I think you meant Czechoslovakia. Austria as a whole speaks German.

Don't worry, they will. And it'll work just as well that stupid "We Built It!" theme they had in 2012. Assault on the rich? Assault on religion? Rewriting history? Boots on the throat of opposing voices? What kind of drugs are these people on?
Being fed a steady diet of fake stories and drummed up outrage about nothing is clearly harmful to people's mental and probably physical wellbeing.

No, it's because Carson is so clearly ignorant of history that you are pointedly ignoring all of the "vicious attacks" from liberal leftists on this thread pointing out the glaringly obvious truth -- that if anything characterized the rise of Nazi Germany, an overabundance of "political correctness" was definitely not it.
Really? Under Hitler, books were incinerated, and independent thought was policed (violently — those considered a threat were murdered — this is where extreme "political correctness" ultimately leads). Social engineers deemed it necessary to get rid of "nonessential" information, and forget the past, so that society could "move forward." Does any of this ring a bell?
Today's "progressives" speak of conservatives as a dying breed, old grey haired men and women, soon to die, and no longer be a hindrance to "progress."
I think Ben Carson was right on the money. He does know history! Imagine that!
