The Most Important Super Bowl Ad the NFL Refused to Allow

I missed the Super Bowl this year, but I did watch this public service advertisement from the National Congress of American Indians about the District of Columbia's NFL franchise, which is still bitterly clinging to its racist name and logo. This video deserves to be shared widely and watched even by those who missed this year's celebration of Chronic Traumatic Encephelopathy:

It must be so easy to be @realDonaldTrump

You can simply blame everything, even something as unrelated as an unsuccessful play in last night's Superbowl, on President Obama:

The Fine White Whine of the Day Comes from the White-Whiner-in-Chief, Reince Priebus

"Until [Griffin] takes internal corrective action and personally apologizes—not just to the RNC but to all right-of-center Americans—I’m banning all RNC staff from appearing on, associating with, or booking any RNC surrogates on MSNBC."  Reince Priebus whined. "Wah wah."

And what caused this fit of pique?


It seems that there was an MSNBC tweet about a Superbowl advertisement that read "Maybe the rightwing will hate it, but everyone else will go awww: the adorable new #Cheerios ad w/ biracial family".  It was taken down and MSNBC apologized (though neither action seems necessary), but Reincey had his reason to cry (even though the RNC and GOP were never mentioned by name). They are really reaching for things to be offended by now.

UPDATE 1/31/2014:
I would like to thank MSNBC for reinforcing the stereotype of liberals as spineless wimps when confronted with the white whine of complaint. Network President Phil Griffin fired the writer of the offensive tweet and the RNC has lifted its boycott of the network.
