Angry Democrats in Nebraska said the Obama Outhouse float in the 4th of July parade may be racist. CBS News reported:
A Fourth of July parade float in Nebraska that showed a dummy standing outside an outhouse labeled “Obama Presidential Library” is drawing cries of racism from local residents and the Nebraska Democratic Party.
The float, in the annual Independence Day parade in Norfolk, Neb., was affixed to trailer being towed behind a blue pickup truck. The dummy was clad in overalls, standing by a walker next to the outhouse.
The pickup truck and the float did not identify a sponsor, according to the Omaha World-Herald.
In a statement, the Nebraska Democratic Party called the float one of the “worst shows of racism and disrespect for the presidency that Nebraska has ever seen,” according to the World-Herald.
They think that’s racist.
OK.
So what?
It’s just a reminder that 0bama has put this country in the craphouse.
I think it should be shown in that credit card commercial as the item which is “priceless”!
Say it and I’ll give it an enthusiastic 2nd to the motion!! Mass stupidity and corruption is putting me in a permanently PO’d mood.
Do you know how much garbage I’ve seen over the years about Republicans? At UC Santa Cruz, a professor had a poster on his door showing George W Bush morphing into a stupid monkey (Ha Ha). Imagine putting up a poster like that of Obama. The bottom line is, the left can do whatever they want to make their political points. The right must not because it’s ‘distasteful.’ The Out House thing was a bit over the top for my tastes, but to each his own. Free Speech is free speech.
That float is actually a sophisticated slap at Presstitutes. Those things actually wrote: “The float, in the annual Independence Day parade in Norfolk, Neb., was affixed to trailer being towed behind a blue pickup truck. The dummy was clad in overalls, standing by a walker next to the outhouse.”
Poor, ickle presstitutes could not even tell the difference between a truck and a truck towing a trailer.
FOr the edification of presstitutes everywhere, the driver in the blue cab is driving as Ford truck with a flat bed body, on which is fastened the outhouse.
Truck, not truck pulling trailer - take notes this time, OK?
I wholeheartedly agree about righteous anger. But the right looses ground when it gets outside the proper arena to make its case. A parade on our Independence Day should never reflect political opinions and sentiments. That should be the one day a year we Stand United.
Racist? Nah. Disrespectful? Probably. So sue us.
Should have depicted Obama as one of the contents of said outhouse.
Disrespectful? Yes.
Racist? How in the samhill can anyone read racism into it.
And, I suspect that the same people did this with Clinton when that scumbag infested the WH,.
Democrats are always angry. But especially now. You’d be upset too if all day everyday all you care about is what body part men put in other men’s body parts.
Bolshecrats are racist to think this is racist.
Agree. The fact that we do not ... not even on Independence Day ... illustrates how nearly out of control the current situation really is.
Extremism in defense of Liberty is not racism.
I disagree COMPLETELY with that statement..!
If we don't get up off our butts and GET IN THEIR FACES EVERY CHANCE WE GET...we're going to be on the outside, looking in...
ANYONE with the talent, time and opportunity should stand up and shout, AT THE TOP OF THEIR VOICE, at the progressive left and let them know EXACTLY how good God fearing Americans feel about the left's "TREASION"..!!
I think the Obama Presidential Library should be built in the State of Oklahoma, the place where his ancestors are buried.
By building it in Oklahoma would strike a blow to the total RED STATE and send a Unity message. If it is built in Oklahoma, it would give Oklahoma a African American Landmark.
The ancestors of our 44th President, Barack Hussein Obama, migrated from Kansas to Oklahoma in 1889 when Oklahoma opened up as a Territory.

“That has no place in an Independence Day parade.”
Then you missed the entire point of the declaration of Independence.
