Noosed effigies. Disgusting ain't it. 8 years of Bush "The Uniter", and the American people are at each others throats, literally.

McCain using Bush campaign strategies is not helping any. The people are tired of being fearmongered, and tired of seeing the rich loot the country.

"Joe the plumber" "Joe the plumber" "Joe the plumber"... A pair of parrots running for the top jobs.

Palin has gone so far as to model herself after Bush. Dumbed down language to get the dumbed down vote.

Where is their message? What are they going to do to fix things? More tax cuts for the rich, drill baby drill and some mavericking? How pathetically superficial.

No wonder sane repubs are crossing to the other side.

Follow-up on the latest episode of "Free Speech, Hate Speech" ...

Definition of "Free Speech": Anything part of a Halloween display ...

A West Hollywood Halloween display showing a likeness of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin hanging by a noose has caused a furor among some residents who reported it as a hate crime, authorities said Monday.

But Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said the mannequin sporting a beehive hairdo, glasses and a red coat does not rise to the level of a hate crime because it was part of a Halloween display.
