#1 Silly flyover people. Anything showing teh 0ne in a bad light or being critical of his presidency is racist.

Now report to your re-education camp.

#3 And here I thought the 'outhouse' was a symbol of 'redneck' association. If it wasn't before, the usual suspects will make it 'racist' to fit their narrative.

#4 The state Democratic Party called the float one of the "worst shows of racism and disrespect for the presidency that Nebraska has ever seen." Yet the float nonetheless received some of the day's heartiest cheers,

It would, Obama's fucked, and dosn't kmow it yet.
Has NO sens of humor, and wants the restof th world to bow down and pray To Obama.

He denys as hard as he can.

#5 I remember a similar Clinton Presidential Library theme. Was that one racist too?

#6 Black or white, the guy is a flaming a$$hole for what he has done to this country.

#7 I'm not racist. I despise the white half of his ass just as much as the black half.

#8 Yeah, I remember the same 'outhouse' meme regarding Clinton's presidential library. The cartoonist Oliphant (before he went bat-sh*t crazy lib) did an extended panel on the Clinton library as a ramshackle hut and the contents of it which was so funny that I had cut it out and had it on the refrigerator for ages.
This is just the Legion of the Perpetually Butt-hurt in full-throated moan once again.

Obviously not. Because he's white. Somehow it makes a difference.

#10 Are they calling Alinsky racist? This stunt seems straight out of his playbook:

* RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”
* RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

#11 Showing disrespect to Clinton's library is also disrepectful because he was the first, first black President. Obama is only the second, first black President by my count.

#12 Don't look at me, I'm not the one who decided it was a good idea to make a Presidential Library that looked like a trailer.

#13 Doublewide with a real fountain in front.

#14 I believe this has been a running gag since politicians discovered foundations are a way to hide income. Also, I remember a W. memorial sewer system.

Making fun of the president is not only a fine tradition, it should be encouraged. Not being able to criticize government officials is one of the reasons why they fought...the freedom of speech is also a pressure safety valve. By tying in racism, they are calling on the power of the State to suppress free expression - something Voltaire would give you the finger for.

#15 Heh, only if the fountain is in the waterproofed bed of an F-150 with iced beers.

#16 A gay bathhouse may be a more appropriate Obama library.

#17 News this morning had a piece on ValJar's numerous meets with Fauxcichontus. The Beest must be sending the wrong signals in reference post-Champ administration criminal amnesty.

#19 Well, shucky darn ... the trolls were slain before we got here?
Although this story has been live since early this morning. Guess the payments for paid trolling of conservative websites didn't go through until noonish, or so. Three-day weekend, ya know. Slows down all sorts of stuff.

#20  Also, I remember a W. memorial sewer system.

Actually it was a measure proposing to rename an existing treatment plant in San Francisco (surprise.) It was defeated with 69% of those voting opposed..

#21 Libs can't tell a flatbed pickup from a flatbed trailer.

"Who goes there?" "Bubba" "Hey Bubba, whassa flatbed?" "Um, a cheap mattress?"
