“Now do you really think our country is ready for a white first lady?”

Funniest line I’ve head from DeNiro in a while. People are too sensative & politicians know this. Don’t apologize, and somebody will want your hide.

I long for the days when we could mock each other with impunity.

Political correctness is the single worst cancer to infect US culture in my lifetime (born 1958). It is also the single most dangerous and effective technique the socialists have introduced to destroy traditional American cultures.

PC is the 1st thing I would blow up if I had a magic wand.

Agreed. I have stated the same here. Often.

It is a rot of the most fundmanetal kind.

Coincidentally, DOB 02/02/1958.

Right. It's the leftist way of limiting speech. Always has been, going back to the late '70s when pc was first being theorized and field-tested by radical college professors. At that time "free speech" to say nasty things about America, flag burnings, etc. was being advocated and promoted by foul-mouthed comics, leftist political leaders, college professors, their brain-washed radical students, and anyone else who had a gripe against America, It was necessary they said, to voice their opinons, no matter how unpopular, to let their feelings be known in a free society without the government or some governing body come in and tell them that they can't or shouldn't say this or that. But just like the hypocrites they have always been, as soon as they got a little bit of power and started hearing things that they didn't agree with or couldn't tolerate, they began instituting politically correct solutions to keep certain groups from saying things the left didn't agree with. So political correctness in its current form is nothing more than the limitation of certain types of speech that the left cannot tolerate. Of course, they don't say 'uh, we're taking your right of speech away to prohibit you from saying what we find so objectionable'. No they couldn't say this because they would be exposed for the fascistic hypocrites that they truly are --- that they can say or use profane language against whomever they care to or whomever they disagree with politically --- but you and I on the other side of the political spectrum, can't. So political correctness is nothing more than a way the far left can limit speech without actually having to admit that they are in fact limiting freedom of speech. This from the same people who, ironically, toiled and struggled so mightily back in the '60s amd '70s to be free to express themselves however they wish, now that they have attained high positions of decision-making power are reinstituting limitations on speech to construct their fairy-tale perfect, secular utopian society.
