Sarah Palin Halloween Lynching Ends
Friday October 31, 2008
After days of coast-to-cost handwringing, the Halloween decoration depicting Sarah Palin dangling from a noose has been taken down -- a national nightmare is over.
The professional window dresser who hung the trick-or-treat display from his West Hollywood roof told the Los Angeles Times that the pressure just became too intense.
"There was a huge mob scene," said Chad Michael Morrisette. "The whole thing became a life of its own."
This came after appeals from West Hollywood Mayor Jeffrey Prang and other community leaders.
"They told us, 'We respect you as artists, we're just concerned about the effect on the community,' " Morrisette said. "I don't resent them. I'm not angry at them. I respect their rights."
Was it a bad joke gone too far? You be the judge. We've got pictures of the Sarah Palin Halloween lynching in all its grandeur.

Well, I’m going to our annual “In Poor Taste” Halloween party tonight as a “beaten” Sarah Palin – black eye and split lip – so I’m probably not a good one to ask. Lynching is a little bit intense, though… I’d say it’s a bit over the line.
This is a little off topic, but doesn’t Todd Palin look like Jonathan Frakes (Commander Riker on Star Trek: Next Generation)?
Megan–that is hilarious. Maybe Buck can post a picture of you like that
With my John McCain hairline, I’m not passing myself off as a Sarah Palin. I’m not that maverick-y.
Hey, Buck–did you hear about the Canadian comics that Punk’d Palin?

Window dresser….Hollywood…man. Or is he??? I think he was probably intimidated by Palin and God forbid there be hidden camera’s in this individual’s home, we’d find him crossdressing as Sarah Palin at night and primping in front of a full length mirror.
Ok, some things are better left unsaid and unimagined. That was one of them.
Oh, that was Sarah Palin that was McCain’s running mate? I thought he had hired an actress to impersonate Peggy Hill from King of the Hill!
