to: PCModem from: truedog I don't know where it all really got started but, it sounds like you were the victim of this "political correctness" BS. It seems to have begun with the heavy liberal influence inside the loop but, I have a tendency to blame everything on the liberals and I could be wrong. I have lived almost my entire life in south Texas, worked with,drank with,partied with, and very nearly lived with a lot of Mexicans. They were proud to be called Mexicans and proud of their connection and contribution to Texas. Then, all of a sudden, the gringos were instructed to call them Latinos and then Hispanics. My Mexican friends were as confused as I was. As a result,I refuse to be politically correct because there really is no such thing. It's just another fabrication of a nit picking mind somewhere that doesn't have anything better to do. There is probably a federal department dedicated to determining what is politically correct and they are desperate to justify their existence. There are far too many such departments in DC. TD
