Republican disappointment with renaming of Mt.McKinley sparks petition drive-rename Reagan airport
FoxNews ^ | September 05, 2015 | staff reporter

President Obama returning the name of the United States’ tallest mountain from Mount McKinley to Denali has sparked a name-game feud, most recently Republicans under attack by an influential liberal PAC that is setting its sights on Ronald Reagan National Airport.

The group, CREDO Action, the political arm of San Francisco-based cellphone company Credo Mobile, is behind the effort with a petition drive.

“Tell John Boehner: Rename Ronald Reagan Airport,” the group writes on its webpage seeking petition signatures. “President Obama just took a small but important step for recognizing the history, culture, and human rights of America’s Native Americans when he decided to rename …. Mount McKinley in Alaska. But right-wing extremists in the Republican party, including House Speaker Rep. John Boehner, don’t see it that way.”

As the full scope of Obama’s perfidy and treason becomes clear in the years to come, his name will be erased from ever surface it soils within the borders of the United States.

I propose renaming the name of the mountain to GOFUGURSELFOBAMA. It is an old Indian name.

Guessing His Arrogance and his loyal pond scum will change the name to the “Kermit Gosnell National Airport” or possibly the “Margaret Sanger National Airport” if the Benghazi Clinton “vote your vagina” crowd has a say.

Now that Denali, part of the “Athabaskan creation story” has been shown for what it is, it must be removed from U.S. government property (Denali National Park). Like the Ten Commandments or a cross, it is a violation of the commie lib SCROTUS “separation of church and state” thingy. Barry is going to have to import a lot of Mexican Nationals to move that sucker!

I would want more things named for Ronald Reagan, in my opinion one of the greatest Presidents of these United States. However, should there be another airport renamed in the vicinity, I would suggest Redskins Airport - and I’m a Packers fan.

We should rename every Martin Luther King Blvd. and school back to whatever was their original name.

I assume one of the last executive orders on Jan 2017 will be making August 4th a national holiday.

How long before a movement is started to stop using the racist term White House and rename it the (fill in the blank _____________) House?

I read this article earlier, and like everything that liberals do, this whole premise makes no sense.

We’re angry that Obozo took the name of one President off this mountain, and this groups answer to that is for Republicans to mimic his actions?

These people have serious mental disorders.

Why not rename DC to “Obamaville”. Libs will think it’s a compliment.
