A bipartisan pair of lawmakers has written a public letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell demanding that the league he oversees denounce the nickname of the Washington Redskins.

"We are writing to express our disappointment with the National Football League's stance on the name of the Washington football team," Washington Democrat Maria Cantwell and Oklahoma Republican Tom Cole explained. "We also wish to register our objections to your pre-Super Bowl press conference on January 31, 2014, at which you defended the Washington team name as an ‘honor’ to Native Americans. It is, in fact, an insult to Native Americans."

You demand? And what are going to do if your demand isn’t met? Throw a hissy fit or maybe a hunger strike?

You’re disappointed? Get used to it. People in hell want ice water too.

Oh, and by the way, your objections are duly noted. Now go away.

With all the problems this country has you would think those political bottom feeders would find a better use of their time.

Actually, rather than throw a hissy fit, they'll threaten to revoke the NFL's tax exempt status.

Well if it comes down to changing their name I do have a suggestion. How about the Washington Elitists. They would fit right in.

Pretty much blackmail is what they are doing. Kind of ridiculous. The fact they are bringing up their tax exempt status to force them to change the name is insane. Not cool Dems!

It ain't Dems. Tom Cole ain't a Dem. It's all of the scared rabbit PC fearing idiots, no political affiliation required.

Yeah..reminds me a lot of these tactics..

“ White House officials have pressured insurance industry executives to keep quiet amid mounting criticism over Obamacare’s rollout, insurance industry sources told CNN.
After insurance officials publicly criticized the implementation, White House staffers contacted insurers to express their displeasure, industry insiders said.
Multiple sources declined to speak publicly about the push back because they fear retribution.
But Bob Laszewski, who heads a consulting firm for big insurance companies, did talk on the record.
“The White House is exerting massive pressure on the industry, including the trade associations, to keep quiet,” he said.”

[h=1]Obama’s strong arm tactics against business[/h] By roxannadanna
I can’t stop kicking myself for continuing to be astounded by this regime.
This man is either entirely tone deaf to the American people or he has balls of titanium.
He is poised to sign an order that will require all businesses who want to contract with the federal government to disclose their political donations and those of their officers – for the last 2 years and going forward. This is an effort to prevent the GOP from making any money for the next election. He’s already bragging that he will raise $1billion which is nothing more than another form of intimidation. But he plans to make sure that the Republicans are not able to raise any money. I suppose he thinks that he can’t beat a good Republican candidate unless he does whatever he can to dry up their donations and scare them into thinking that no one can beat his $1billion campaign.
And as the Wall Street Journal says, by the same token, Obama wants bipartisan support for other things this coming year.
If he follows through with this disclosure plan, I doubt that he will get it. Even that milquetoast RHINO Susan Collins is furious with his plans: The administration’s argument that this is about disclosure is “a fraud,” she declares. The very notion “offends me deeply.”
