For a media company to be ignorant about the news is unforgiveable, when you are most OBVIOUSLY backing the "right" conservative agenda. If you are against the effigy, it should have nothing to do with politics, someone's politics should be fodder for any type of criticism. However, if it is the underlying meaning of the effigy, you are ACTUALLY concerned about, then the tone of your argument should be against racists and sexists...certainly certainly not Democrats or liberals. And let us not forget, that Sarah Palin is the very person who started this negative campaigning, this hate speech, the very thing that is inciting all of this negativity towards her is what she started. She was the love of America prior to showing her true and ignorant colors. So blame not the left...

OJ Simpson after he stabbed and decapitated two whites adoring thongs shouted go OJ go! Johnnie Cochran turning around to Goldman family in court and saying gotcha. Memories brought on by the quiet tolerance of hatred again for whites in this country. we the middle class taxpaying nothing serfs . So you thought the sight of a white woman hanging wasnt a hate crime? Festive and Helloweeny And you see Obama as the man who most sees things the way you do Interesting. Racism is not tolerated by the just and the innocent.

Didn't the Secret Service investigate the "kill him" allegations and discover it to be bogus? Hmmm, don't think Sarah Palin has been treated fairly by any of you bozos. If I were her I wouldn't want the job, what a bunch of disgusting creeps coming out of the woodwork to try and destroy her. She doesn't deserve the treatment she's gotten. Take a hard look at Obama and tell me what in the world he has done to deserve this job. He hasn't accomplished one blasted thing of value. Sarah Palin is miles ahead of him in accomplishment and executive experience. Hey Duncan,

Free speech is one thing but here are a couple of "designers" looking for a little publicity and calling this art. How about I hang an effigy of Chad by his hanging chad out my window? Would that be art? Would that be calling forth a history of hate crimes? Why not get to the hear of it and hang an effigy of Uncle Sam? Democrat or Republican we are in a pickle here and "art" won't change that. Can these guys even vote? Forget liberal or conservative arguments of who is “meaner”.
