So Politically Correct we can't talk?

[heavyd]

Political correctness is killing us here in the USA. Europe is already a lost cause, IMO. I recently had a discussion with my pops about this very issue. He said one thing that stuck with me..."If you control the language, you control the debate." Thought police, anyone?

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an
environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive,
gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within
the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or
secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular
persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice
religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally
successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of
the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2009, but not without due
respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to
society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is
necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the
Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race,
creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of
the wishee.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Is it me or is the term 'Politically Correct' an oxymoron? How often is anything political correct? I will frequently use the term Happy Holidays, more often when writing than speaking. It's not because I want to be PC, but more so because I'm too lazy to write Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. If my laziness offends anyone,

There wouldn't be any Happy Holidays this week if it weren't for the "Merry Christmas". Funny, I don't hear many protests from atheists fighting for their right to work Wednesday and Thursday.

I actually have a buddy who is atheist and he called to thank me for the Christmas card we had sent.

Merry Christmas people.
