Someone had suggested, using that great rhetorical technique of juxtaposition,
that "political correctness" was somehow the sole bedfellow of those evil,
black-toothed, villainous, "leftists".
A recent "rightist" use of "political correctness" from PA R Rick Santorum. It's
not that PA lost over 150,000 manufacturing jobs over the past 4 years, it's
that it's become 'leaner':

You see, continued use of the absurd idea that only the "left" spins language
serves only blind dichotomous loyalty to politcal agendas. Sad, sad, sad. They
BOTH spin. They BOTH demand altered language use to drive ideological agendas.
Heaven forbid, mayhap they are BOTH worthy of criticism!! Great Goddess Above,
what blasphemy!
But hey, we haven't "lost jobs", we're "leaner"! Go PA!
