From Prager's article:

They don't care because the left is not interested in prosperity; the left is interested in inequality and in the environment.

I caught the headline today about a judge not allowing Redskin to be used. Our country is on the brink of explosion, and this is what concerns these people!?

I caught the headline today about a judge not allowing Redskin to be used.

There was thread on that earlier: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3180754/posts.

Rush was also on the case yesterday morning:

"The US Patent and Trademark Office isn’t the only federal authority that has taken a stance against the name of the Washington Redskins. A federal judge in Maryland issued a ruling last week that purposely did not contain the team’s name, which has been described as an offensive slur against Native Americans.

"US District Judge Peter J. Messitte, who is presiding over a lawsuit that former New York Giants linebacker Barrett Green brought against the Redskins, issued a 21-page ruling with this footnote on the first page: 'Pro Football’s team is popularly known as the Washington "Redskins," but the Court will refrain from using the team name unless reference is made to a direct quote where the name appears.' Instead, he wrote, the team will be referred to as 'the Washington Team.' The note comes months after Messitte ordered attorneys in the case not to use the team’s name in his courtroom, according to one of the lawyers."
