:Actually, the source he cites attempts to attribute the phrase "political correctness"—a stretch, because the words both appear, but not consecutively—to Robert Lafollette, circa 1912. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 15:35, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

: The hnn page appears to be a blog-like structure. There are no attributions claiming ''where'' or ''who'' claims that Donna Shalala has been called the founder of political correctness. The closest I can find is ''Dubbing her the "high priestess of political correctness" and threatening to attack her record as chancellor of the University of Wisconsin, the conservatives predicted Shalala--a 52-year-old career public administrator and an associate of Hillary Rodham Clinton's at the Children's Defense Fund--would become the center of the new Administration's liberal wing.''[http://www.aegis.com/news/lt/1993/LT930705.html] Still, that is a long ways from being the founder. I welcome citations to the contrary that do more to link Shalala to starting the movement. You're better off trying to attribute the movement to Bascom.[http://nobsblog.blogspot.com/2004/12/john-bascom-problems-in-philosophy.html] Whatever the case, get good citations and put them there rather than individuals blogs opining on the evils of one view or the other. --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 15:46, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
