Yes, the noose is still included. For those who already have the Obama hope poster, the McCain maverick button and the Joe the Plumber T-shirt, there is one more kitsch -– though more controversial -– item for the comprehensive 2008 presidential campaign collection: the Sarah Palin effigy that caused a bit of an uproar outside one West Hollywood home and prompted Keith Olbermann to name the homeowner “Worst Person in the World.” Chad Michael Morrisette, a professional window-display designer, and his partner, Mito Aviles, put the Palin mannequin up for auction on eBay last week, complete with red coat, beehive...

By now I'm sure you've probably heard the news. An effigy of Obama hanged was discovered and immediately removed by police at Northern Kentucky University. The hordes of people expressing their shock was astounding. The president of the University also expressed that he would be calling Mr. and Mrs. Obama immediately to apologize. This is a big deal folks. Someone made fun of Obama and now all hell is breaking loose. You can't poke fun at The One without getting the police involved. And yes, I am choosing my words carefully. Because when an effigy of Sarah Palin hanging from...

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Amid a growing frenzy of protesters and media surrounding his home, Chad Morrisette decided his noosed Sarah Palin mannequin should be cut loose. ...

On the roof, a mannequin of Republican presidential candidate John McCain, protruded from the chimney surrounded in flames, holding his head as he was...

FAIRFIELD — City and school district leaders have "condemned" the actions of a Fairfield resident who last week displayed a ghost with Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama's name on it — hanging from a tree by a noose. Mike Lunsford said he hung the ghost in his front yard as a Halloween decoration and later wrote "Hussain" in on it. Obama's middle name is Hussein. Lunsford also attached part of a campaign yard sign with Obama's last name to his decoration. Fairfield police received calls from neighbors and passersby, but decided Lunsford had not committed any crime. Fairfield Police...

Brown's campaign told Politicker that “Brown attended the rally in a camouflage jacket and spoke with people on both sides of the rally before leaving.” “Deborah Johns said she saw Brown clearly on...

She then parades around with the effigy’s head as onlookers cheer and hoist up the rest of the...

Blame the media for soldier burned in effigy By Judi McLeod Wednesday, March 21, 2007 Members of the left leaning mainstream media should collectively hang their heads in shame. A soldier has been burned in effigy at an anti-war protest in Portland. It likely never would have happened without what Rush Limbaugh coined, the “drive-by” media. In treasonous times, the desecration of G.I. Joe was never far away from reality. It began to gather momentum with a media that lionized the anti-war movement’s every protest and ended with a fairytale media deliberately suppressing the pro-troop side when the moment of...

Pearcy seeks to intimidate Bloggers I have just received a phone call today at about 12:15 pm from Mr. Stephen Pearcy regarding this blog which I wrote March 9, 2005 about Mr. and Mrs. Pearcy who hung a soldier in effigy (twice) from the eaves of their home in Land Park in Sacramento. I also noted with links vulgar statements posted on Mr. Pearcy’s car. In the call I received from Mr. Pearcy, he informed me that I am guilty of a “tortious interference with a business relationship” because I suggested that people who didn’t like her private actions could...

The man who tore down an effigy of a U.S. solider hung as a protest last month outside a Land Park home will not face criminal charges, the Sacramento County District Attorney Office said in a press release Friday. After a review of Sacramento police reports seeking an arrest warrant for misdemeanor vandalism, prosecutors said there was insufficient evidence because there was no damage to the effigy or the home belonging to Stephen and Virginia Pearcy. Charges for trespassing are not sought because the encroachment was slight and that such cases are not ordinarily prosecuted. A second incident in which...

While media and protesters raged against the military mannequin outside, a very different scene unfolded inside the house on Marty WayDon’t want to live like an effigy: Virginia and Stephen Pearcy pose beneath the second coming of their controversial creation. Stephen Pearcy had little idea what kind of monster he was about to create when he stepped into a surplus store to buy materials for his latest political statement. In fact, all signs pointed to the contrary: Even the store manager, when he found out what Stephen and his wife, Virginia, were up to, showed his approval by telling the...
