The name of a certain pro football team in Washington, D.C., has inspired protests, hearings, editorials, lawsuits, letters from Congress, even a presidential nudge. Yet behind the headlines, it's unclear how many Native Americans think "Redskins" is a racial slur.

Let’s purify and forget everything that occurred prior to the advent of the Obama regime since references to US history no longer has any value.
They need to ask the permanently outraged. Then they’ll get the answer they want.
Hail to the Wimps, Hail to our team
hail to the Wimps, Fight for old D.C.
Perfect.

“GO - People of a particular reddish-brown (no offense) color associated with native and indigenous peoples who inhabited North America before the White man decimated him Seminoles, Go!
When a US President has to speak about PC football team names then we are in big trouble, big trouble.
Does this mean we have to drop the following names and change them to:
Atlanta Braves - Atlanta very strong somewhat warrior native Americans?
Pittsburgh Pirates - Pittsburgh ones of underprivileged status therefore requiring the temporary suspension of maritime law in order to remove goods from wealthy Capitalist shipping firms, just so the can eat.
Cleveland Indians - Cleveland native tribes people who inhabited the Ohio river valley until the white man killed him.
How stupid can you be? Have the Indian peoples asked for this change or is it being dictated from the WH?
The Left lives by manipulating anger and guilt. So they go about probing, stirring a little anger here, a little guilt there, just seeing what works. If they get a little anger, they offer themselves as the solution. If they manage to stir a little guilt, then they offer themselves as absolution.
If it isn’t one thing, it will be another. It never helps to give in to them because they must, must, keep probing, keep agitating, keep accusing. How else are they going to harness the unhappy and disarm the guilt-ridden masses?
Surprised that the pResident isn’t more hostile to the name Patriots. After all, it excludes him.
Potato farmers everywhere are OK with the name.
Call them the Yellow Bellies.
Come up with more appropriate names, a few below:
Washington Thinskins
Washington (D or Th)ickheads
Washington Whores
Washington Slime
Washington Dictators
Washington Plunderers

A liberal once told me how insensitive the word “indian” was. I was a little confused, since I knew quite a few indians and they called themselves indians. One of them even had an “Indians Discovered America” bumper sticker.
These two guys used to put on cultural shows around town, doing authentic pow wows. One of them told me that at their then-most recent show, their sheets with the words blew away, so they started doing the stereotypical “hey-ya, hey-ya, hey-ya!” “The crowd didn’t know the difference!” He was a fun guy—a little prone to BS stories—so I don’t know if it’s true. It should be, though.
Another fun story from this guy: he said he was on the baseball diamond, playing some pick-up baseball, when a kid rode up and breathlessly told them that Jimi Hendrix had died. This guy was my guitar teacher, so I said, “Oh, wow! Were you pretty broken up?” “Nah,” he replied. “I was more into the Archies at that point.” Real deadpan.
His favorite movie was Billy Jack. He’d slowmo it on the scene with the roundhouse kick and say, “Look! Billy Jack just turned Chinese!” The stuntman was really Korean, but he got a big kick (no pun intended) out of that.
Ok!

... how about the Washington Partisanship NO-compromisers?
How about the “DC Diversities”?
When Obama decided to yet again stick his big POTUS bazoo into non-presidential business and comment on changing the ‘Skins name, I immediately got on Amazon and bought me a beauty of an original team logo ball cap!!
GO REDSKINS!!!

Barry, oh Barry, say, have you met Barry?
Barry the pampered POTUS
He has eyes that people abhore so
And a torso even more so
Barry, oh Barry, that encyclopedia
Barry, the King of Hubris
On his back is the Battle of Obamacare
Beside it the Wreck of the Economare,
And proudly above waves the red, white and blue
You can learn a lot from Barry
(la la la la la la)
When his crown is exposed, he will show you the world
If you step up and tell him where
For a dime you can see closed federal facilities or closed offices Or Washington under barrycades
(la la la la la la)
(la la la la la la)
Barry, oh Barry, say, have you met Barry?
Barry the the pampered POTUS
When his cheek muscles start relaxin’
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson
Barry, oh Barry, that encyclopedia
Barry, the the King of Hubris
For two bits he will do a mazurka in jazz
With a view of the Capitol that nobody has
And on a clear day, you can see the Golf courses nearAlcatraz
You can learn a lot from Barry
(la la la la la la)
(la la la la la la)
Come along and see Buffalo Bill with his lasso
Just a little classic by Mendel Picasso
Here’s Captain Spaulding exploring the Amazon
Here’s Godiva but with her pajamas on
(la la la la la la)
(la la la la la la)
Barry, oh Barry, that encyclopedia
Barry, the King of Hubris
He once swept an admiral clean off his feet (fired)
The ships on his budgets made his heart cut their heartbeat And now the old boy’s in command of the fleet
For he went and begged to Barry
I said Barry
He said Barry
I said Barry
He said Barry
Ole!
In honor of our federal government change the name to the Washington Pork Skins.
