Salon: Two people may have single-handedly set back civil libertiesby nearly 100 years by hanging Obama effigies in their yards. The chairs, ondisplay at two Centreville, Va., and Austin, Texas, homes, are areference to Clint Eastwood’s chair speech, and conjure memories of moblynchings once common in the South. Technically, it’s a free country, and it’stheir right, but the symbolism behind the actions of just a few is disturbingfor the rest of America.
BurntOrange reports that when one woman complained to the Texas homeowner,he said, “I don’t really give a damn whether it disturbs you or not. Youcan take [your concerns] and go straight to hell and take Obama with you. Idon’t give a shit. If you don’t like it, don’t come down my street.” The manhas since added an American flag to the chair … the Texas home owner took downthe chair and moved it because, “Does anybody else that’s got a chair sittingout receiving the same harassment that you guys are giving?”

Obama Chair Lynchings not Racists? Both sides do it?
No excuses, this is the general feeling we've been getting from conservative voters for a long time.
