"Obamacare is more offensive than Redskins"

That jewel of a quote is from a WTOP (Washington News Radio) FB discussion on if the Redskins name will change or should it change.
I figured you guys would get a kick out of this. I often do a stupid comment of the day on my FB and obviously this one wins....

for local news in particular. They have a good understanding of the federal workforce around here. I like that. Can't say I like some of the people they bring in for special commentary (Peter Moreci said this morning that Wall Street is full of Democrats. REALLY?)

Their was 1500 which used to be wtop (i think) which was all federal radio. Since I did not work in the federal sector, I didn't mean much to me.

Are you still with a fed agency?
