Continuing his futile crusade against the Washington Redskins, Harry Reid chided the National Football League and its commissioner Roger Goodell for punishing the New England Patriots while ignoring the D.C. football team with a “racist name.”
“I find it stunning that the national football league is more concerned about how much air is in a football, than with a racist franchise name that denigrates Native Americans across the country,” Reid said Tuesday from the Senate floor. “The Redskins name is a racist name.”“So I wish the commissioner would act as swiftly and decisively about changing the name of the D.C. team as he did about not enough air in a football.”
Harry Reid is sick.
He’s a fool if he honestly believes that there’s an actual comparison between a clearcut case of cheating and a football team’s nickname.
Reid also fired off this gem via Twitter:
I find it stunning that the NFL cares more about how much air is in a football than it cares about a racist franchise name.

I find it stunning that the people of Nevada would repeatedly elect a scumbag as dumb and despicable as Harry Reid.
And again, 2016 can’t come quick enough!
