Washington Redskins

[L Verge]

It is not the name "Redskins" that I am fighting to protect. It is the indeterminable amount of witch-hunting that is going on in America right now with what appears to be the sole purpose of finding something else to divide us. That is what I am fighting against.

It just appears to me that we have more than enough serious issues to contend with than p.c.'ing everything to death. The fact that less than half of the Native Americans polled have any objections to "Redskins" tells me that they may be more observant of what's important than many of us are.

I married into an Italian/Russian family and got teased about being a "white breader" and "cake eater" because I was mainly English, Scottish, and French. Now that I think about it, maybe I should have filed for divorce because my in-laws were casting slurs at me!?!

In closing, what in the heck does this have to do with this Lincoln forum? Wonder what Lincoln and his father called our Native American brethren?
