Anyone notice that there is a totalitarian streak in liberals?
This issue is a perfect example. We all can have opinions, of course. But, for the Senators and Obama to weigh in, to micro manage down to the level of what sports team nicknames should be used, is absurd on many levels. This is not an issue of national importance, or national security. This issue is completely outside the responsibility or authority of the federal government.
I have opinions on this subject. I think that Dan Snyder knows how to run his football team better than busy bodies in the Senate. And that includes whatever team nickname he has for his team.
Anyone else agree, that aside from pushing this liberal issue, that the U.S. Senate simply has no place in dealing with sports team nicknames at all?????
Best solution I’ve heard: Keep the name, but change the mascot to a potato.
Ever since the 1800s there has been an attempt to marginalize the American Indian. His mounds were tore down, the tribes were moved to Oklahoma, every stone structure was “proven” to be made by Welsh Prince Madoc or the Vikings.
Now we wipe the American Indian memory from our sports teams.
In the future the children will ask the question...”What was an Indian?”
