Call me crazy, but it appears to me that old ‘Dingy Harry’ Reid must have a rather peculiar looking ‘Things to Do’ list. I mean I think it’s fairly obvious that this whole socialist game implemented thus far by the Democrats has been pretty much of a bust, that is, of course, if it was actually the intent to actually make our country stronger and more energy efficient.
You would think that even a blind man would plainly be able to see that our country is going down the crapper and primarily because of the policies implemented by Barry and championed by ‘Dingy’ and the Democrats. Which leads one to the only possible conclusion. That the destruction we are witnessing in this country is being done very much on purpose.
Because it seems to me that if the primary party presently in power was genuinely concerned, it would be talking about those measures that could be taken which would actually work to strengthen our economy, lower our energy costs, encourage job growth and possibly even replace Obamacare. But such things seem to be strangely missing from ANY discussion.
Instead it would appear that old ‘Dingy Harry’ has found something far more urgently in need of discussion. Because it was on Tuesday that our less than stellar leader of the Senate saw fit to involve himself in an online chat with none other than NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell? And the purpose of ‘Dingy’s’ choosing to insert himself into the conversation?
Well apparently the reason behind ‘Dingy’s’ involvement in this online banter was to push, or at least attempt to push, football's top executive to "act against racism" and make the Washington Redskins' franchise pick a new team name. Frankly, this is nothing more than yet another instance where old ‘Dingy’ comes across as a dog in search if a fire hydrant.
But, be that as it may, ‘Dingy’ showed up during a live Twitter question-and-answer session with Goodell, who, I guess, was fielding questions under the hashtag #AskCommish. So it was then that ‘Dingy’ tweeted, "Commissioner Goodell, "do you believe you have the authority to act against racism in the NFL like Mr. Silver did in the NBA?"
Now of course, what ‘Dingy’ was referencing was the very recent incident where NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling from the NBA for life for racially charged remarks caught on tape. Which while they were disgusting, I doubt the comments were any worse than those frequently heard in any NBA locker room.
Most folks are probably aware of the fact that old ‘Dingy’ has been campaigning publicly for the football team in the nation's capital to abandon what some have called a racial slur against American Indians. Personally I just think we have far more important things to talk about other than the fact a few might get their feelings hurt because of a football team’s name.
And it was in a floor speech last month, that ‘Dingy’ really outdid himself on a day when I guess there must have been nothing else in need of being discussed. It was then that ‘Dingy’ criticized the NFL for allegedly "doing nothing while an entire population of Americans has been denigrated," and urged team owner Daniel Snyder to "do what is morally right."
So I’m guessing here that old ‘Dingy’ must somehow view this bizarre line of attack as being a big vote getter for the Democrats this November? I mean, after all, from everything I’ve read the Democrats need to come up with something if they hope to have any chance of making sure that old ‘Dingy’ keeps his job. But oddly enough, I just don’t see this ploy as a big winner.
