Political science represents the pinnacle of complete and utter bullshit

political correctness

The new racism that was invented by leftists.
Political correctness is really nothing more than a new way to promote prejudice

Political Junkie

One who is obsessed with all things politcal, watches C-SPAN, and votes in every election. Rachel Maddow is often credited with coining this term.
I am such a political junkie, I need to stop writing emails to Senator Feinstein and get out more.

political correctness

A bloated, circumlocutory and wholly American attempt at relieving the white man's burden; a struggle to find polite terminology for whichever group feels slighted that day and needs a hug. Tricks the unwitting into referring to Somalian nationals as "African-Americans."
How can you call them "black people"? That's not politically correct!

Politically Incorrect 

Political correctness is America's newest form of intolerance, and it is especially pernicious because it comes disguised as tolerance. It presents itself as fairness, yet attempts to restrict and control people's language with strict codes and rigid rules. I'm not sure that's the way to fight discrimination. I'm not sure silencing people or forcing them to alter their speech is the best method for solving problems that go much deeper than speech. - George Carlin, 2004
1) I don't think that trans-women should compete in women's sports because it defeats the point of Title IX.

You can't say that!

Why don't we talk about it? It's my honest thought.

It's not a debate!

Who decides that?

You just can't say that! It's politically incorrect!

political capital 

the ability to compel a vote or favor in the political arena as a result of a previously extended favor which debt is thus repaid
An example of political capital is the ability of a chairman of a committee to garner a members vote by reminding the member of the favor of letting the member have a hearing on a bill which bill was important to the member but which bill is of no intrest to the chairman
