Actually, just a few days ago, I saw that term, "Framers" in the newspaper (editorials, IIRC), and it just irked me to see it in mainstream media.
Do you mind amplifying why you believe that "framing fathers" has anything to do with being PC? Personally I think it is HA (Historically Accurate.) Besides, FF stands for either founding or framing.

You're missing the point. The term is simply, "Framers of the Constitution," or sometimes just, "Framers," which supposedly more PC than "Founding
Fathers" which has that nasty masculine feel to it. [/sarcasm]
