Okay, here are your clues:

"Laws Against Gay People Marrying"

"GOP Frontrunner Michele Bachmann"



"Denial of the Link Between Carbon Emissions and Global Climate Change"

"Tim Tebow, Quarterback, New England Patriots"



"The Washington Redskins"

Things That Actually Existed for a Brief While in the 21st Century?"



Washington Redskins trademark canceled by U.S. Patent Office
Office says 'Redskin' is disparaging to Native Americans

"The team's attorneys said the team will appeal. The team prevailed on appeal in an earlier iteration of the case.
Ref: USA Today

'We are confident we will prevail once again, and that the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board's divided ruling will be overturned on appeal,' team attorney Robert Raskopf said in a statement. 'This case is no different than an earlier case, where the Board cancelled the Redskins' trademark registrations, and where a federal district court disagreed and reversed the Board.' "

DonDiego suggests the Congress quickly pass the 28th Amendment to the Constitution to assure the decision of the U.S. Patent Office is not overturned, as it has been before:
"Amendment XXVIII.
The Federal Government is hereby permitted to take any and all actions necessary to insure that no citizen is offended by any other citizen, organization, corporation, or Government Office within the borders of the United States and any of its Territories, Provinces, or other U.S. designated real property.
Provisions of Amendment I regarding guaranteed Freedom of Speech and the Press and the Practice of Religion and Amendment IX protecting rights not otherwise enumerated may be suspended as necessary to insure that no one is ever offended, . . . ever, ever again, . . . ever."

My GOD Man!

Why are the Democrats having this idiotic conversation? To draw attention away from the IRS scandal? The ineffective leadership of Obama needs a pick me up. I know lets make a big brew ha ha over the Redskins name.....

My GOD man, how stupid can they be?

In England, smokes are still called fags....

Not a single Indian's life will be improved by this.

The Indians would be better served if the people that spend so much time on names put as much time into trying to lower the Indians rates of alcoholism, drug addiction and improve their dropout rate as well as working to get them better jobs.

Indians would be best served if we closed every reservation and stopped giving them special benefits. Blending with the balance of Americans is best. After many years of reservations and special benefits, things aren't working so well.

Democrats are now doing the same with blacks, and that's working just as poorly.

It always amazes me when those not associated with particular ethnic or provincial group feel they are qualified to tell that group what they should or shouldn't find offensive. I'm certain you can find many people who would tell you the "N" word shouldn't be considered offensive. I know they exist because I've come across a few. It certainly doesn't make them right, just ignorant!

Good Luck!

DD you constantly crack me up !

I am offended by people who take offence to those who are offended by those who are not offended about how stupid this whole conversation is in this first place.
On the other hand, I'm not that offended by those who are not offended about those who are offended.
I'm confused... I don't know whether I'm offended or not offended ?
I guess that means that, frankly, I don't give a shit.
Those that are offended by my lack of being offended or not offended by me being offended should start a petition and send it to Congress so that I can determine what I should be offended or not offended about.
Hope that clears up my stance on this whole issue. Thanks for your assistance.

This is another example of Obama and friends trying to circumvent current law, and in this case, the right to free speech. Obama fans will argue that he isn't limiting free speech, however if the Redskins owner wants to continue his use of free speech (using the word "Redskins"), Obama will make certain that it'll cost him millions of dollars.

Again, this group proves to have little interesting in following the letter of the law. It shocks me, but most Liberals will support this move.
