Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) is slamming the NFL’s priorities as out of whack because of the league's decision to suspend New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady but live with the Washington Redskins “racist” franchise name.

[Biggirl]

Just like coming out from a "horse's mouth".

[Servant of the Cross]

And Rush is racist too for calling me ... Dingy Harry!

[chris37]

What race is “Redskins”?

[rjsimmon]

“Redskins” is about as racist as “Patriots”

[cicero2k]

There must be something in it for Reid to take this position. It’s just that most of us don’t see it.

Like the nuclear waste issue. Keep it out of Nevada, good for Reid, bad for America as a whole.

The Redskin name usage, a little dubious.

That’s one of the real problems with politicians these days, they feel entitled to stick their damn noses into anything and everything, even where they have no business whatsoever.

They should change their name to the Washington Kleptocrats.

[dfwgator]

Today they go after the name “Redskins.”

Next they’ll go after the “Washington” part, since he owned slaves.

And I mean that, 100%.

[MortMan]

How dare they try to enforce the rules, while ignoring opinion.

[SkyDancer]

It only became racist when PC and DemLibtards came on the scene.

[Dr. Sivana]

And now, a reminder of the "good ol' days".

F-Troop theme

Redskins are peanuts...Just ask that grinning ass Jimmie Kahtah.

Dirty Hairy better shut up or we’ll sick the mob on him again. He’s lucky he’s got one eye.
