Rush,
HOW STUPID
CAN
THEY GET ?
Erica Ritz covered this issue.
Glenn Beck tackled the issue head-on.
Ninety percent of Native Americans feel that the name isnt offensive and shouldnt 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 theyre 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 thats 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 dont know any better.
But Obama does.
And Peter King does.
And NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell does.
But the majority of the Indians
dont 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.
Its for their own good
Beck said perhaps its not those who dont want the name changed who are out of touch, but those

Rush, here's some more info.
Here's something to consider about liberals, and conservatives.
The liberal's problem is psychological projection.
Liberals do this all the time.
Here's a definition.Freudian ProjectionThe following is a collection of definitions of projection from orthodox psychology texts.
In this system the distinct mechanism of projecting own unconscious or undesirable characteristics onto an opponent is called Freudian Projection.
- "A defense mechanism in which the individual attributes to other people impulses and traits that he himself has but cannot accept.
It is especially likely to occur when the person lacks insight into his own impulses and traits."
- "The externalisation of internal unconscious wishes, desires or emotions on to other people.
So, for example, someone who feels subconsciously that they have a powerful latent homosexual drive may not acknowledge this consciously, but it may show in their readiness to suspect others of being homosexual."

- "Attributing one's own undesirable traits to other people or agencies, e.g., an aggressive man accuses other people of being hostile."
- "The individual perceives in others the motive he denies having himself.
Thus the cheat is sure that everyone else is dishonest.
The would-be adulterer accuses his wife of infidelity."
- "People attribute their own undesirable traits onto others.
An individual who unconsciously recognises his or her aggressive tendencies may then see other people acting in an excessively aggressive way."
- "Projection is the opposite defence mechanism to identification.
We project our own unpleasant feelings onto someone else and blame them for having thoughts that we really have."
And here's a problem with honest people.
(General) ProjectionHere projection is assuming that others act or perceive similarly according to this definition it is not necessary for a projected trait to be undesirable or unconscious.
Projection is probably inherent in social animals and the single most important psychological mechanism.
The following are given as examples:
- Individual A assumes that B sees the colour red as he does, until informed that B is colour-blind;
- Someone who never lies is easy to deceive because he projects his truthfulness onto others, assuming that others are honest also;
- It takes one to know one;
- An inept con-man fears that others are trying to cheat him, signals his fear and alerts others;
- (Freudian) An individual who possesses malicious characteristics, but who is unwilling to perceive himself as a protagonist, convinces himself that his opponent feels and would act the same way.
Liberals constantly project their own vile values onto conservatives, intentionally or unintentionally,
and they need to called on it, shamed on it, and laughed at to scorn, when they do it.
We MUST get rid of these evil people.
