On the Redskins kerfluffel

"The United States Patent and Trademark Office has canceled the Washington Redskins trademark registration, calling the football team’s name “disparaging to Native Americans.”

The landmark case, which appeared before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, was filed on behalf of five Native Americans. It was the second time such a case was filed." 


Here is my question, under what regulation/statute/law does the U.S. Patent Office have the authority to do what it has done?

And why does this make me think the Obama Administration needed another distraction, on top of their other attempted distractions?

Lois Lerner and the IRS E-mails

Iraq

The VA Scandal

Benghazi

The main IRS Scandal

Bergdahl

The 5 Taliban they gave up

How many more?

And just how desperate is the Obama Administration to change the main headlines?  and what exactly are they trying to force off the front page?
