    When did not using vulgar language become tantamount to bowing to the gods of political correctness?

        @mattklewis Great question. You & #PJORourke were right to react the way u did last nite on @CNN. #Trump vulgarity giving antiPC a bad name.

        @mattklewis Two-part macho flash. First, say offensive thing, then when called on it, ridicule the caller.

        @mattklewis There is a cross over between PC and manners... unfortunately, it's manners that's taking the beating in PC's name...

        @mattklewis Political incorrectness is not "using vulgar language". Why do we have to explain that over and over to "educated" folks?

        @mattklewis Political correctness is hiding facts and reality bc you are *too afraid* to hurt someone's fragile insignificant emotions.
