Oh no! Someone dared mock the President with toilet humor!  Quick! Send in the Feds to investigate!  Who cares if no actual crime has been committed?

What's the "Community Relations Service Team"?

Basically, the thin-skinned Justice Department is equating showing the Obama Presidential Library as an outhouse as racist, which is isn't.   (And even if it were, the DoJ shouldn't be investigating something that's still not a crime, but free speech).  I doubt the Bush DoJ's CRS investigated when a cartoonist depicted the Bush Presidential Library as an outhouse or a parade had a float of a cowboy-dressed Bush sitting down in an outhouse.

Any strike against hillbillys is a victory.

I guess I forgot about that part of the Constitution where "hillbillies" aren't entitled to Freedom of Speech and the government must investigate their parade floats lest they offend anyone with delicate sensibilities.
