WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) â€• 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.

Morisette says the effigy would be out of bounds at any other time of year, but it's within the spirit of Halloween.

He says "it should be seen as art, and as within the month of October. It's Halloween, it's time to be scary it's time to be spooky."

2. I agree.
I don't see lynching as a joke, by any stretch of the imagination, regardless of who does it, or who the object of it is.

4. Yes I think that is going too far
If they have manniquans dressed up as them its fine, but the hanging part is over the top.

6. Absent of any racial undertones, I take no issue with hanging effigies.
Hanging and burning effigies is as American as apple pie.

9. A more creative scene might have been....
A mannequin Moosealini lying in a pool of blood on the ground with some wolves or polar bears up in a plane mounted on the roof.

Uh, strictly in the interests of Halloween fun, of course.

Nice try, but I've read enough of this angry trash's posts over the years to know faux outrage from her, especially over something like this.

Post by: DarkHalo on October 27, 2008, 09:06:32 PM: This thread is the perfect example of what lemmings libs really are. The content of the entire thread was determined by the first few replies. If it had been the usual DUmmies hooting and hollering about rethugs this and repukes that the whole thread would have taken the opposite direction. As it was a few people with some common decency got in first and guided the rest of the lil' lemming retards to admit it was a pretty foul thing to do.
