Schumer: ‘There Is Too Much Political Correctness in This Country’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | October 19, 2018 | David Rutz

Posted on 10/20/2018 7:25:47 AM PDT by kevcol

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) said Friday there is too much "political correctness" in the United States these days, although he tagged both sides of the aisle as being to blame.
.
.
"I think there is too much political correctness in this country, but I think health care is far and away the dominant issue," Schumer said. "There's a lot of political correctness on both sides all the time, and it's not the biggest issue, not even close. Biggest issue with independents? Health care."

I’ve heard leftists say this before, oblivious to the fact that 100% of the PC is on their side. Yet more evidence that liberalism is a serious mental disorder.

I blame both sides for it ....

The democraps have been using this “both sides are to blame” response a lot lately .... like when their anarchist mob wing has been pointed out successfully (finally) by Trump and other prominent GOP members as being anti-American.

Remember their response after President Trump said that both sides were to blame in Charlottesville, a bastion of leftism?

“Hypocrites” and “liars” are too mild to describe them.

I think Chuck is smart enough to see that Jews (like him) are being villainized by the PC crowd. Problem is that he is not smart enough to actually do something about it.

Here’s praying and wishing for a massive turnout next week in DC for the #Walkaway march by fed up exDems sending a message. Except the LSM alphabets to censor that one big time.

Pokahonky, the democrats prize donkey’s ass was gored.

Never ceases to amaze me how the democrats can reverse course and promote the same clap-trap at the same time without shame.

Does he even know what “political correctness” is? He doesn’t give any specifics - he just opens his mouth and the words fall out without any brain function. What in the world is he talking about?

Exactly.

Unfortunately many people under the age of 40 have never learned American history to understand what you wrote, and therefore they cannot understand your point that the biggest problem is the Constitution is no longer followed, including the government not living within its means. It would be a radical idea to them.

Also, there are many over the age of 50 who were taught this, but have decided the ends justify any means for transforming the country to institute their leftist political system. Hence, the guardians entrusted with our liberty - the three branches of government, and the federal system of government have eroded the Constitution, gradually over the decades. It will go one of two directions.

Don’t you wonder what these losers are going to do for a living when they are FIRED by, ‘We The People’ in the near future?

The problem with people like Up-Chuck, Mad Maxine and Pug-ugly is that they can do and say anything they want, and their version of "We the People" lap it up like a bunch of lemmings. They could call their constituents any number of derogatory epithets and still win their election by double digits.

Amazing that they think health care is a strength for them. Scaring their base into thinking their free AIDS drugs might be taken away (they re-label this “concern over pre-existing conditions”) can only motivate about 2%. The middle class suburban moms are apt to remember what Obamacare did to their family budgets - and vote accordingly.

Dennis Prager says political correctness is a left wing term. He is right as usual.

This woman, a veteran, was speaking today on Fox and she said it all, “why would anyone vote Democrat?”

A real profile in courage making this statement considering that a recent poll came out showing 80% of respondents saying PC was bad.
