Contrary to popular conservative belief, political correctness is not a solely left-wing phenomenon.
Examples of conservative correctness:
frankfurters became "hot dogs" during world war I
french fries became freedom fries in 2003
David Horowitz's "Academic Bill of Rights"
attempts to "teach the controversy" by creationists in biology courses, and global warming deniers in environmental science courses
Any number of campaigns against plays or films, such as Life of Brian or Jesus Christ Superstar, on the grounds that they are "offensive to Christians;" conservative Catholic groups are particularly fond of this tactic
Encouragement of anti-gay activists to eschew the words "gay" and "homosexual" in favor of such phrases as "unnatural vice" and "anti-Christian"
Global warming deniers whining about being called "deniers." They prefer the term "skeptic."
"Enhanced interrogation techniques"
"Homicide bombing"
Atheist billboards are seen as insensitive to Christians.
Republicans changing the names of committees in the House of Representatives to change "labor" to "workforce" and remove any mention of "civil rights"
Free speech zones
The Dixie Chicks causing controversy by criticizing George Bush
ward churchill getting blasted to high heavens for insulting innocent americans (although this was definitely justified)
The whole fox news "war on christmas" nonsense
Conservatives are just as PC as liberals!

It’s a full-throated, un-nuanced, uncompromising defense of American nationalism, history and cherry-picked ideals.
Central to its thesis is the belief that nothing in America can’t be fixed by more patriotism enforced by public shaming, boycotts and policies to cut out foreign and non-American influences.
Insufficient displays of patriotism among the patriotically correct can result in exclusion from public life and ruined careers. It also restricts honest criticism of failed public policies.

A business term used to describe how a free-market economy balances itself after extreme events run their course like a rising stocks after a recession or the real estate bubble burst. The word crossed over into everyday use to similarly describe when one's fortune or luck changes, for bad or good, changing the course of daily life.
BAD:
Bob: Last summer I was was nailing babes left and right. Now that I'm back at college...nothing!
Pete: Ah, well, you're not that attractive or interesting. You just had a lucky streak. You were due for a market correction. Consider yourself forntunate if any girl even talks to you, bro!
GOOD:
Pete: I was just promoted at work! I've been wasting my talents there for WEEKS, but the VP just quit and they promoted me to replace him. Guess I was due for a market correction, huh? How's the girl situation, Bob?
Bob: I hate you.

A correction angle that is factored into one's beer pong shot due to extensive intoxication.
The size and placement of the angle is completely dependent on the level of intoxication of the shooter. It is also an acquired skill that develops over time and is usually non-existent in those that suck at beer pong and/or drinking.
Note that this is similar to the concept of crosswind correction, an airplane piloting technique referring to the correction needed for a crosswind present during landing.

"Wow, Darren has been drinking heavily all day and he's still hitting cups like a champion. He really has great drunk correction."
"Dammit Matt, either start putting in some drunk correction or I'm finding a new partner. I'm carrying this team, asshole."

Yeah man, I been doing correctional work for just upwards of 20 years now and I’ve gained only a little over a hundred pounds which ain’t too bad considering the truckloads of pizza I must’ve eaten every single day on the job!
