More GOP fake outrage

Caught this over at the Eagle's Nest.

Republicans are outraged over this cartoon.

Enter Minnesota's sharp tongued House Minority Leader Marty Siefert.

Back in 2006, when a large budget surplus was announced, Seifert took a shot at DFLers with a drunken sailor reference of his own.

MDE loved Seifert's misguided commentary
.

I love the hypocrisy here. Virtually zero outrage when Marty Seifert makes a drunken sailor reference but when the Republicans are implicated as a drunken sailors, all the sudden were offended by said reference.

Yawn...

As a Veteran, I don't really get offended by stuff like that. I get more offended when Veterans can't access their benefits or when my friends and former soldiers are put in harms way based on a lie.

But...to each their own...

I wonder if there will be equal outrage to this cartoon:
