Joe: Have you heard about all those goddamned petitions to repeal Don't Ask Don't Tell? Fuggin' pinko commies!
Bob: Why should the gay community's freedom to serve our country be restricted just to appease homophobes?
Joe: ZOMGWTF POLITICALLY CORRECT

A pejorative term, and straw man for a political movement fabricated by United States conservatives in about 1980 to discredit the liberal cause, and its ideas.
Whether it be any poorly handled incident where a home office minister gets ticked off for using 'nitty-gritty' in a speech, school children brought before judges for playground racial taunts, to reports of doctors reprimanded for not giving men cervical smears, they all propel an instruction of disapproval about 'politically correct madness' and for one purpose: to mock the entire liberal cause in the process. Plain-talking conservatives who yearn for 'common sense and clear thinking debate' would never fall to such liberal follies.
Thus, any environmental campaign, any discussion about global warming, any case of sexual harassment, or any response to racial prejudice, can be portrayed as the irrational exponents of 'political correctness'.

a pejorative invented by conservatives so they can say whatever the hell they want without reprisal.
Kinda like a "get out of racism free" card. Go ahead and call Justice Sotomayor a spic on national radio, and when you get called out for it, blame the media for being too "politically correct".

"All Jews are good for nothing penny-pinchers! I would know, considering I've met every single one of them. What's that? You say I shouldn't assume things? Rot in hell, you politically correct bastard!"

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!

"Maybe we shouldn't bomb other countries needlessly."
"Don't be so politically correct."
"What does that mean?"
"I don't know, but it's what you are."
