For the most part Indian Giver is not considered to be politically incorrect as it is more of a slap at white people than Native Americans,however that isn't good enough for some folks who continue looking for a word/words that mean the same thing. It's not an easy task. Some of the words up for approval are:gift revocation,reneger (which opens another can of correctness worms for some),de-gifting,and the also questionable Welcher/Welsher. It seems like the Indians don't really care that much especially when it comes to sports teams having Indian related names. Could it be more of a white person guilt trip? Just another shower thought that made it into print.
