Nation’s Liberals Suffering From Outrage Fatigue | The Onion - America's Finest News Source:

Flauman has trouble mustering outrage over Republican policy.

"With so many right-wing shams to choose from, it's simply too daunting for the average, left-leaning citizen to maintain a sense of anger," said Rachel Neas, the study's director. "By our estimation, roughly 70 percent of liberals are experiencing some degree of lethargy resulting from a glut of civil-liberties abuses, education funding cuts, and exorbitant military expenditures."
