Rush, don't forget this.

Erica Ritz covered this issue.

“Ninety percent of Native Americans feel that the name isn’t offensive and shouldn’t be changed,” Beck remarked, echoing a letter written by the Redskins owner Dan Snyder to fans.“Students at primarily Native American schools all across America wear the name with pride, and say now they’re afraid they might lose the name. At Kingston Oklahoma high school, which is 58 percent Native American, the name ‘Redskins’ has been worn by its students for 104 years. In fact, ‘Redskins’ was a name first used by Native Americans.” “In 1932, the NFL team moved to the historic Fenway Park and were left under the leadership of George Preston Marshall. The very next year, Marshall changed the name to ‘Redskins.’ Why?” Beck continued.“Well that’s a good question for the president to ask … the name was changed to ‘Redskins’ to honor then-coach Lone Star Dietz, an American Sioux. So the name actually pays tribute to a great people.” Switching to a deeply sarcastic voice, imitating those who want the name changed, Beck remarked:“But the people it pays tribute to? Oh, I guess they just don’t know any better. But Obama does. And Peter King does. And NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell does. But the majority of the Indians … don’t have a clue at all. The speech police using political correctness again to take care of these helpless, hopeless people so they are never harmed again. It’s for their own good…” Beck said perhaps it’s not those who don’t want the name changed who are out of touch, but those“who have no connection to the Native American culture, people out there trying to draw attention to themselves.” (Continued and watch video at link)

RUSH, NEVER FORGET:

" If thou wilt not observe to do ALL the words of this law that are written in this book,
that thou mayest FEAR this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD;
Then the LORD will make THY plagues wonderful ,
and the plagues of THY seed,
even GREAT plagues, and of LONG continuance,
and SORE sicknesses, and of LONG continuance.

Moreover he will bring upon thee ALL THE DISEASES OF EGYPT,
which THOU WAST AFRAID OF;
and they SHALL CLEAVE UNTO THEE.
Also EVERY sickness, and EVERY plague, WHICH IS NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THIS LAW,
THEM will the LORD bring UPON THEE,
UNTIL THOU BE DESTROYED.

And YE shall be left FEW IN NUMBER,
whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude;
BECAUSE THOU WOULDEST NOT OBEY the voice of the LORD thy God.

And it shall come to pass,
that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good,
and to multiply you;

so the LORD will rejoice OVER YOU TO DESTROY YOU,
and to bring you to nought;
and YE shall be plucked from OFF the land
whither thou goest to possess it.
And the LORD shall SCATTER THEE among all people,
from the one end of the earth even unto the other;
and there THOU SHALT SEVER OTHER gods,
which neither THOU NOR thy fathers have known,
even wood and stone.

And among these nations SHALT THOU FIND NO EASE,
neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest:
but the LORD shall give THEE there a trembling heart,
and failing of eyes,
and sorrow of mind: "
