Obama: I'd Change Redskin's name" (compared, leader, state, Florida)

[ntwrkguy1]

Coming from a man who used to be known as Barry Sotereo.....

....who came from a girl who was named Stanley because her father always wanted a son.....

....yeah, this kind of makes sense.

USC isn't good anymore.

Besides, they are nicknamed after a birth control device. Offensive to Catholics.

Only a topic by those who just can't stand not being able to control the thoughts of others, ie politicians.

Uh; there WAS a HS football team with the "ch" word in its name but it had NOTHING to do with Chinese people, something about "chinks in the defense" like a weakness.

I heard about that tho some people are mad because the "Wizards" have or had a "KKK" connection.

ridiculous.

Hmmm, no, gas is $3.56 here. Which is exactly 14 cents MORE expensive than it was two years ago when I moved here. (I keep all of my gas receipts.)

I've seen many American Indians here in Arizona wear "Redskins" clothes and saw one Indian dude wear a metal "Braves" logo on a necklace.

These are the kinds of issues that conservatives will focus on. Instead of anything requiring actual intellect and thought processes, the conservative brain focuses on team nicknames and barricades at the WWII Memorial.

"Redneck" ain't a real bad word in 2013. Hells; some Black people call themselves "Rednecks" because they're plain living country people.

Political Correctness will be the death of free speech.

Anyone who is offended by the name "Redskins " is an overly sensitive Vagina. Plain and simple.

With the growing debt, shutdown, possible war in Syria, and everything else that is on this man's plate, he is upset about the Washington Redskins? I'm glad to see where his priorities lie. Makes me feel good about my president! (Sarcasm)
