"Liberals" do take the liberty of deciding what's the "right" opinion though...

I have become fond of referring to the "right" opinion as Authoritarian Liberalism*. 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.")
