fringe of America has really gone to the level of absurdity and even danger? First, there was the influx of illegals, done for "humanitarian" grounds, now look at the mess America is in because of the continual influx of illegals flooding our schools, hospitals, and social systems in addition to bringing diseases. Despite the blunders that President Obama made, many are loathe to take him to task because of his race. Then there are no checks regarding the ebola situation which resulted in outbreaks of ebola on American soil. Most countries being aware of the ebola situation has denied entrance to those suspected of having ebola. President Obama wants to be the "humanitarian" and "politically correct" president. Nancy Pelosi does not want to hear the word "illegal". This insanity has got to stop and it is time to repair America and elect some people with plain common sense and respect for American values in political positions.
there is no american outbreak of ebola. one or two cases is not an outbreak. it is highly unlikely that there will be an outbreak here. anyone boarding a plane to here has to have their temperature taken. if it's up, they can't board.
Cathylynn, don't let facts get in the way of a good emotional rant!

Do you think political correctness has gone to far and caused many problems?
by Grace Marguerite Williams 3 years ago
In the present time, we are living in a culture of extreme political correctness. People nowadays must be ever so careful of what they say lest there will be repercussions. Oftentimes what people state oftentimes have a negative impact on their lives. People can't even have...

PC. Is it good, bad or somewhere in between? How far can PC go before it becomes ridiculous? When does it become offensive and unworkable? Examples are encouraged.Have we lost touch with (what once was called) common sense?
