Political Correctness

Something that was probably a good idea at first and then got seriously over the top and banned things that didn't offend anybody in the first place.

Eg -

We can't say blackboard (but we can say whiteboard.)
We can't sing Ba Ba Blacksheep (we sing Ba Ba Happy Sheep)
Teacher: Okay, Martin, come and write your name on the blackboard.

Martin: Teacher, I am very offended by you the chalkboard a blackboard, even though it is actually a board that is black.

Teacher: Sorry, Martin, I forgot my Political Correctness!

Politically Correct Card

The act of using the term Politically Correct in an political argument or debate in an effort to cover for not stating one's unpopular opinion. Mostly done out of cowardliness to avoid being criticized for sharing their unpopular opinion for fear of being ridiculed or in an effort to cheaply stifle someone's well explained opinion.
Being confronted with an well argued opinion opposed to Paul's point of view, Paul decided to play the Politically Correct Card instead of giving a proper counter argument.
