Got this via email from my sister in Texas ...

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."
