Making Major Issues Of Minor Trivia...Which Is The Greater Insult?

Common Sense Commentary: Considering the mammoth, world changing issues and difficulties on the front pages of our news media, this issue is only visible under a microscope; but Senator Harry Reid has his one good eye glued to it. Wake up and do your job Harry; the world is going to hell under your watch.  RB


Which of these two are the greatest insult to American Indians? The Washington "Redskins" boastfully calling themselves "Redskins" or Senator Harry Reid calling American Indians in Nevada "MY Indians"? He also calls it a "Moral Issue" in the following quote from.... 

Inside Nevada Politics

"Yet he (Harry Reid) threw in a new wrinkle, saying Redskins owner Daniel Snyder tried to give members of the Las Vegas Paiutes gifts for them to support the “Redskins” brand.

“Redskins is a racist name and native Americans believe that,” Reid said. “They have tried to buy off some of my Nevada Indians and they have not been able to do that, giving them trucks and stuff like that.

“The Indians, they understand that this is an issue that deals with them,” Reid said. “It is a moral issue with them. And he (Snyder) can hang on for a little while but it is not going to go on forever.”

Moral Issue??? The Washington Redskins chose the name for "themselves" which is a compliment to the American Indians as strong warriors and a brave, valiant people. How is that "racist" or negative. This is the way Liberals think. RB
