Harry Reid won’t attend Redskins game until team changes name

OH NO!!! It’s the end of the world as we know it! Iraq is on fire, Americans are being kidnapped an jailed by the Mexican police, and illegals are flooding the border in anticipation of Obama and the House GOP’s amnesty. So what does Harry Reid do? He announces he wouldn’t attend any more Washington Redskins games UNLESS the team changes it’s ‘offensive’ name. Another nickname for the Washington Redskins is ‘hogs.’ I wonder if Dingy Harry Reid finds that name offensive to Muslims. I really hate progressives.

Dear Mr. Allen:

I received your letter and invitation to attend a Washington, D.C. football team event.

During my time in the United States Senate, I have worked to right many of the injustices endured by Americans throughout the country. Among the most egregious in the history of our country are those injustices inflicted upon American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians. This is personal for me. I represent 27 tribes as the Senator from Nevada and have worked to protect their homelands and their sovereignty. I have a duty to ensure that the United States uphold centuries-old treaty and trust obligations towards Native Americans, and I take this responsibility very seriously.

I will not stand idly by while a professional sports team promotes a racial slur as a team name and disparages the American people. Nor will I consider your invitation to attend a home game until your organization chooses to do the right thing and change its offensive name.

Sincerely,

Harry Reid

United States Senator
