I guess, for some people, gun walking into Mexico isn't wrong if a guy who used to be in the Marines does it.

Washington Warriors, Washington Nationals, Washington Monacan, lots of alternate choices. The FSU Seminoles worked with the First Nation, instead of insulting them.

President Obama is Stripping Washington Redskins Trademarks After Owner Refused to Give Up Team Name

This is how the Obama administration rolls. Get in a confrontation with the president, and some IRS branch patent office makes trouble for you. That’s how “community organizers” do business. That’s the Chicago Way.

This stuff dictators do.

Good for President Obama! They should change the name from the Redskins to the "Whiteskins".

As for that Marine in Mexico... what the fuck is Sarah Palin and the Republicans doing about it? Not a damn thing! They don't give a shit!

Sorry, but if Whiteskins is okay, why isn't Redskins? Either they are both okay or they are both wrong.

Ya do realize that those Injuns who object to the name are the extreme minority and most do so only for political reasons..... right?

How about the Wahington Derms...

We need to go after Cracker barrel. That is offensive to white people

Since when?

It has been for years. Whitey's have just suppressed the rage to be sociable.

Please show proof that Obama did this personally...or it didn't happen..

1. Obama has always supported a name change.
2. The US Patent and Trademark Office is under the authority and direction of the Executive Branch.
3. Obama is in charge of the Executive Branch.

Logic and reason is all one needs to be in possession of to understand that Obama did this.

He missed the turn off. He didn't want to go into Mexico and he declared his guns right up front. Not something you would do if you were trying to sneak them into Mexico illegally. Of course, you have no problems with an American citizen being jailed for taking a wrong turn.

Plus a huge sack full of paranoia.

You are probably correct. But, the only way to get this stopped is the Injuns who don't object need to tell the Injuns that are driving this to stand down.

I happen to have a couple of employees with Injun blood, maybe if they became unemployed this week they could get the movement started.

Really? Obama's America

Washington Redskins trademark cancelled over native concerns

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has decided to cancel the trademark registration for the use of the name "Washington Redskins" on the grounds it is disparaging to native Americans.

The NFL team has come under fire in recent years for its use of a nickname that many people say is racist and insensitive.

"We decide, based on the evidence properly before us, that these registrations must be cancelled because they were disparaging to Native Americans at the respective times they were registered," the patent office said in a ruling Wednesday.


Despite its base in one of the smaller cities in the league, Washington's team is among the most popular in the NFL, and has been deemed the second-most valuable in the league in rankings by Forbes.

There has been a growing movement for the team to change its name, something the franchise and the NFL have resisted.

Actually, Obama did it because he got word that the right wingnuts on this board were running out of posting material. Fast and furious, Benghazi, IRS , nothing seems to work for you guys, does it?

One...show proof Obama is behind this.

My evidence that suggests Obama is behind this:

-Obama has at least once come out against the "Redskins" name and called for it to be changed.

-Obama's "insistance" that the name be changed was met with a serious rebuttal by the team's owner.

-This Administration has shown a few times already that it is not afraid to use a government agency to hit back at someone who opposes Obama or an Obama policy.

Not the first time the patent office did this...10 years ago they did the same thing. Also, the controversy over the Redskins name has been around before Obama.

Try again...it is hot as shit where I am at...can you find a reason to blame Obama for that too? You Teapers are fucking ridiculous.

Well this is good.

It's important that we punish anyone who says or does something that offends the American Left.

That's important.

After all, this is America.
