WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) ― A Halloween decoration showing a mannequin dressed as vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin hanging by a noose from the roof of a West Hollywood home is drawing giggles from some passers-by and gasps of outrage from others.

The mannequin is dressed in brunet wig, glasses and a red business suit. Another mannequin dressed as John McCain emerges from a flaming chimney.

Chad Michael Morisette, who lives in the house, told CBS 2 News that drivers and bus passengers have been stopping to snap pictures of the macabre scene.

If someone did this to Obama, all hell would break loose.

Yep. You can only do this type of thing to Republicans. Double standard.

Somebody sort of did. It wasn’t a mannequin. I think it was a hanging ghost in a sheet with Hussein written on it. Then there was another one of McCain in KKK garb chasing Obama. Buncha idiots out there.

The Feds would be investigating this as a hate crime. That said she may be paid a visit by the USSS next! Maybe it won’t be so funny then!

I was thinking about doing an Obama as the Grim Reaper. Wonder if anyone would notice it in Mississippi? With little headstones saying “American Dream”...”Private Property”...”2nd Amendment”....”US Constitution”...etc...

Maybe it’s time to hang a Liberace mannequin by its neck.

They won’t win any votes with this vile hatred on display.
Let the nation see the unhinged left and that they are the ones whose hearts are filled with hatred.

“Creator of the display, Chad Michael Morrisette, says his subjects are fair game during the Halloween season”

BS!

Try a creating a display with 0 and a noose, and you’d be facing a hate crime!!!
