Sarah Palin is not considered to be a friend of the gay community, but the Republican vice presidential candidate seems to be looming over the West Hollywood Halloween Carnival.
First, a rumor got started that city officials were going to ban Sarah Palin drag queens at its upcoming costumed street party, which draws some 500,000 people annually. The rumor turned out to be false, but tonight comes word that a mannequin has been outfitted to look like Palin -- with glasses, a beehive wig and a red business suit -- and is hanging from a noose outside a WeHo residence.
The display also depicts a devilish John McCain emerging from flames.
"We see people stopping and taking pictures, and the tour buses are stopping and slowing down ... people reach out and take pictures,"display creator Chad Michael Morrisette said.
However, some neighbors said the effigy is in bad taste... Canadian tourist Ron Hernando, who stopped by to take a picture, said he was not shocked by the display. "This is West Hollywood, after all," he said. "It was kind of cruel, but it made me laugh, too. What can I say?" (more at site) .

Where's the damned Secret Service on this crap???
Creator of the display, Chad Michael Morrisette, says his subjects are fair game during the Halloween season.
Not that it's a bad thing.
Any other time a noose is displayed its called “racist” and a “hate crime.”
I won’t whine like the left but point out the hypocrisy and hope the whole world sees this.
Ain't that the truth. There was a major news story in the last couple weeks where a guy had a noose around a figure in front of his house, as a Halloween decoration. Because he had a McCain placard on his lawn, people were demanding he be arrested for hate crimes against Obama. I believe the Secret Service investigated him. The MSM and Hollywierd libs are so biased and get away with murder (or the threat of it against VP and Presidential candidates).
This too:
Along with a graphic that I cannot post due to an actual photograph of a vagina Photoshopped over her face.
Liberals really are disgusting people. What happened to all the peace and love, and "can't we all just get along?"
Someone should create a parallel depiction ... exactly parallel ... with Biden hanging and Obama coming out of the flames like the devil. And there, beside it, should be a blown up display of these two photographs. Then, when anyone shouts about how mean and evil and racist the display is, all anyone has to do is point to the two photos that inspired it and then cite the Oxford Dictionary definition of “hypocrisy.”
I didn’t know 10 year old boy grew mustaches!? ; )
Oops, it’s not on Doheny, it’s apparently up on Miller, north of Sunset, at La Cienega. I’m in Weho, it’s a cross between gay and sort of a First Wives club. Lots of artificially plump lips on skinny, older faces.
Where’d you find that picture?
Nailed to a cross, OTOH....
You know, the bottled water will last about one “Hate Rally”, but the bottle will last 10,000 years. They should be ashamed.

directors/producers Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato founded World of Wonder Productions after meeting at NYU Graduate Film School in the late eighties. Bailey, a Brit hailing from London, and Barbato, an American from Jersey, formed the pop music duo The Pop Tarts, performing and deejaying in New York's underground clubs. Their after hours shows in the East Village were the beginning of a fifteen-year collaboration in music, film, books, fashion, TV, and all things pop. With a bit of money they'd acquired in a music publishing deal, the duo was inspired to launch what would soon become the most cutting-edge production company in Hollywood.
I stumbled on it from one of the liberal blogs like DU. The stuff that people do and write about others is amazingly disgusting.
If you want it removed, I'd totally understand. My point in posting it was not to offend anyone, but to illustrate the depravity and hatred coming from liberal opposition in trying to win an election.
