Will somebody please inform CNN's Rick Sanchez the meaning of the term "politically correct". Last nigt in his interview with Carl Paladino he showed his ignorance of the term.
"SANCHEZ: It's interesting. Well, it just seems interesting, because you use this term, as I read your letter, and with all due respect. You accuse your opponent, Democrat candidate for governor Andrew Cuomo, of taking the politically correct view in the case of the Islamic center being built in New York City.
That's an interesting choice of words, politically correct, because is it really politically correct, is that what you choose, which will ingratiate with a majority of people? A majority of people in the United States -- I mean, the easiest thing in the world right now is to beat up Muslims, which is what you're doing. That is politically correct, is it not?
PALADINO: Are you teaching me now?
SANCHEZ: No. I'm asking why you choose --
(CROSSTALK)
PALADINO: Are you teaching me what political correctness is?
(CROSSTALK)
SANCHEZ: Why do you accuse your opponent, who is taking a minority view in this case, which most people would actually consider brazen to take a view like this -- it's not easy in the United States these days to defend people who are either Muslim or, for example, Hispanic."
