It is a term definition problem:
I totally blame the MEDIA for that including this political correctness that requires that we no longer call a SPADE a SPADE. Bush is very likely the most honest, God fearing, well meaning President we have had at least in my lifetime. Yet, what do you read about him? THINK ABOUT IT.

Authoritarian Liberalism* is a more appropriate term. I tend to use AL instead of PC.

*AL - Authoritarian Liberalism - excerpt of quote from Robert Bork (Today's liberalism celebrates the liberation of the individual, but that liberation is only from the traditional culture of the community, and from the laws that reinforce it. The individual is not often liberated from the demands of authoritarian liberalism, sometimes referred to, though inadequately, as "political correctness.")
