Obama Effigy is Effed Up
Evidently there have been two reported discoveries of Barack Obama effigies across the United States hanging from trees, and one of them was found on the University of Kentucky campus. It’s embarrassing. It’s disheartening. It’s sad. It goes against everything that the United States has been trying to escape for the past 40+ years. We are a progressive country, and Kentucky is a progressive state. Here is where we stand. Last ditch efforts to abuse such a sensitive matter in an attempt to put fear into a candidate for presidency. It is sad. That somebody that can not muster enough self respect to pacify that type of hate and not only have the people voting for this candidate fear that his future as President, should he win be short lived but to stain an entire state in the process is foolish. There are many Obama supporters in Kentucky that will not stand for this. Do not allow the actions of one decide how you view the people of Kentucky. Mostly, they are hard working honest human beings wanting better for not only their families but their neighbors and country. If one wants to hang something from a tree, try hanging your pride.

This is great! you are so right. This kind of thing is going on elsewhere in the us and it is just awful for both candidadates and their running mates. If you want change then this kind of thing is one of the things we can do to change. Stop the hate and bashing. Make this world a better place to live by being a good American citizen in every way. Thank you for writing this!
couldn’t agree more. thanks for your post!
From the point of view of a non-American, I just hope Obama’s foreign policy is a little more Doveish and a little less Hawkish.
