Liberal Outrage of the Day

Like since when aren't liberals outraged.
There is not one criticism of Obama that isn't decried as "racist" by the party of perpetual outrage. That seems to be their go to accusation whenever anyone doesn't fall to their knees and worship the Obamessiah.

 July 4 Parade Features 'Obama Presidential Library' Outhouse Float
An Independence Day parade in Norfolk, Nebraska included a float depicting President Obama's presidential library as an outhouse, sparking outcry from residents as well as the state's Democratic Party.
The float, which did not identify its sponsor, featured an overall-clad dummy standing in front of an outhouse. Nailed to the structure were wooden signs reading "Obama Presidential Library".(picture at the link)
According to the Omaha World Herald and the Lincoln Journal Star, many Norfolk residents were upset by the float, with some decrying the display as a racist attack on the president.
“I’m angry and I’m scared,” Glory Kathurima, a Norfolk resident who is originally from Kenya, told the Journal Star. “This float was not just political; this was absolutely a racial statement.”
Kathurima says she wrote to the town's mayor as well as the Chamber of Commerce expressing her concerns with the float.
State party officials offered similar criticism.
“We have seen many times when Nebraskans disapproved of the President, but this clearly crosses the line.” Nebraska Democratic Party executive director Dan Marvin said in a Saturday statement. “There is a level of respect for the office of the Presidency which should not be crossed. It's beyond disappointing the City of Norfolk, it’s officials, and citizens would allow such a thing.”~snip~
Nothing like a little over the top hyperbole to get the outrage started by suggesting that the float invokes fear. But then again that's how liberal/commie/progressive roll.
