Fox & Fiends: "What If They Hung An Obama Effigy?"

Some clueless F***wit just posed this question on this morning's edition, during a discussion (and footage) of the Palin effigy being hung from somebody's house.

Er.... somehow they forgot to mention Mike Lunsford who hung an Obama effigy outisde his house in Ohio

..somehow they forgot to mention the Obama effigy hung outside a "Christian" University in Oregon

Gee, aren't they forgetful?

1. No one - either here on DU, nor Keith O - has defended the Pailn effigy...
In fact, he was KO's Worst Person in the World last night.

10. I believe it was something to the effect of
"Well what does she expect? It's a GBLT area and Palin has been hard on that community" Not an exact quote but pretty close!

6. I suspect they were trolls
I can't imagine there are any Obama supporters who aren't completely sick of this shit.

That said, hanging/burning/etc any politician in effigy is wrong. Even the ones I detest.

7. Hanging anybody in effigy is despicable. Period.
There were some posters here defending this yesterday. Trolls or jerks, imo.

8. If it was Obama it wouldn't get reported like the Black Bear that was killed and dumped.

Stop blaming DU'ers


The REAL POINT is that Obama effigies are not being reported and now the Media has ASKED you to Tell America about What the GOP is doing to our symbols.

12. Any effigy is wrong.
Remember, they attack that what they themselves do in order to distract and confuse the issue at hand.
