Not sure if it counts as conservative political correctness, but their incessant whining about how Christians are being persecuted now that married gay people have the same rights as married straight people is pretty pathetic. You not being able to persecute people doesn't mean that you're being persecuted, nor are your "religious freedoms" being eroded. You all are NOT the victims just because you're losing your political clout to bully people into agreeing with your flawed and narrow-minded interpretations of your Bible. Stop trying to Kim Davis yourselves into martyrs just because more and more people are turning away from the church (and it's not because of the big bad evil secular liberal government, it's mostly because of hypocritical self-righteous holier than thou people like you. Glass houses and stones.)
Their faux disguise as the true champions for free speech goes in there somewhere. They got all bent out of shape and cried "government persecution of free speech!" when A&E was about to pull the plug on Duck Dynasty after that redneck made all those anti-gay comments, but they were perfectly okay when country music radio stations and outlets turned the Dixie Chicks into pariahs after they spoke out against Dubya and the war. They also got all riled up after Carrie Underwood came out in support of marriage equality. You all are no more the champions of free speech than liberals are.
I never see social conservatives try to silence social liberals. Conservatives have their problems, but on social issues the right is almost always better behaved and respectful.
You can't be serious.
