I saw Banzhaf on the tube today. A real retard, IMHO.
But we’re in the age of Obama now, rules, laws, constitutions mean nothing.
I have wondered why, all of a sudden, it’s become a liberal cause celebre to try to force the Redskins to change their name.
How do liberals decide what their causes are?
And, is this an orchestrated campaign? We’ve seen politicians, all Democrats I believe, weigh in. We’ve seen some news organizations and commentators weigh in. Some of them have said they will not use the name “Redskins” in their sports coverage or commentary.
And now the FCC is considering banning the word “Redskins”??
Why are they doing a full court press against Redskins and not other Indian team nicknames? Or will they go after the Braves, Blackhawks, Indians, Chiefs, etc. if they can force the Redskins to change their name????
Should Sioux City change its name? Oklahoma? the Dakota’s?
Where does it stop?
Also, forgot to mention the recent action against the Redskins regarding their trademark or copyright on the use of their team name. That too, in conjunction with all these other actions, reeks of an orchestrated campaign, by liberals behind the scenes, to force a name change.
Death by a thousand cuts? Pushing against the Redskins on many fronts all at once????
It stops only if there is pushback. Otherwise liberals will move on to force other teams to change their names.
Regarding place names, there are so many Indian names of cities, towns, states. Will liberals then go after them? How crazy can these liberals be?
And why is the issue of Indian nicknames such a high priority for liberals? With so much happening in the world, and considering that many liberals aren’t even sports fans, why in the sam hill do they care about the nickname of a team in a sport they don’t even care about????
They have been for decades...
It's how you get team names like this one:

Maybe they are guilty white libs fighting for the black guys... there are the Vikings and the Redskins but there isn’t any team named after the Zulus, Tutsis or whatever.
The libs long for a Utopia. They believe American natives lived in Utopian balance with nature until the evil white men came! Think Adam and Eve...they long for the very garden while sneering that the Bible is a fairy tale!
Go Padres!
Or is that too Christian for liberals these days?
-PJ
Change the name to the Washington Gangsters or gangstas
why not fighting rednecks? or the fighting peckerwwods?
they are doing this because they know they are loosing on every front ... its a hail mary pass to try and win a loosing game cause they have no new ideas and nothing to offer its a ruse to stay in power thats all!!
Sure they did - if you ignore twenty-thousand years of inter-tribal warfare, no medical care to speak of, no written language, they didn't even have the wheel.
Although the Anasazi were pretty advanced as far as timekeeping and calendar science.
“Although the Anasazi were pretty advanced as far as timekeeping and calendar science.”
I was vacationing in Santa Fe (home of the liberal homage to Native Americans) the day it was revealed that the Ansazi were extensively cannibalistic. It was chaos. Then came denial. Then aversion.
They were called “savages” for a reason.
Liberals can’t win on the merits, so they have to get the FCC involved to issue blanket threats to broadcasters. “Redskins” has become the latest four-letter word to the average small minded Obama Drone.
Redskin.......the “r” word. Our country is just ridiculous now, so sad where we are. 1/2 the country is amazing idiots.
