Riveria Beach renamed Old Dixie Highway in honor of [Hussein] Obama during a ceremony on Thursday, a change that city officials say will help move the community past its segregated history.

It is the second road in Palm Beach County to be named in honor of [Hussein], county officials said. Two years ago, Pahokee in western Palm Beach County renamed East First Street to Barack Obama Boulevard.

A crowd cheered as a crew lowered the Old Dixie Highway street sign in Riviera Beach and raised one bearing the [Hussein's] name...

They could’ve at least been more respectful with the rename and gave it a name in honor of one of the numerous Seminole chiefs and/or their people in Florida that fought for their land until the last warrior during the Seminole Wars.

But no, they name it after a (putting it kindly) lackluster president that enjoys too many golfing ‘excursions’ and harming foreign relations.
