I didn;t realize the Obama one was on University property, while I agree that what is fair for one should be fair for all, I can't support the University allowing it. They need to move it to private property.

What kind of country are we running when anyone sees either of these as ok.

White women have been just as suppressed as blacks in my view and either one of these should be not tolerated.

I am sick of the one way Obama street, if Palins is allowed to stay and not ordered down as is being called artistic by the person who hangs it then the person who hung the Obama one can also say it is an artistic item as well.

We need to get over the 150 year ago issues and move on, there are just as money whites who have been mis treated in the country as there are blacks.

No one is alive today who did anything wrong 150 years ago, get over it and move on.

Hell affirmative action has screwed me more then any issue in out lives today and I do not blame the 4 blacks who took over my job and could not do it, I blame the system for screwing over me and allowing 4 idiots to be proven they could not do the job anyway.

If the Palin one remains, so should the Obama one. No difference.

Afterall it is Halloween right!!

* As a side note, Wal Mart is getting sued by some racist pig for allowing Obama face mask to be sold while they said nothing about the McCain one right beside it.

We need to get this country fixed before it goes to far.

We all get to start from zero today and if you cannot make it in todays world it is your own damn fault as I see many getting a head start just because of something none of us had anything to do with 150 years ago.

Lets not forget that women in general have been treated more wrongly then any group and it is time we end that.

The Palin hanging item is racist beyond belief yet no one is saying a word.

Oh Lordy here we go again..............why is it racist when an Obama dummy is hung, but when a Palin dummy is hung is just A-OK?? I get so sick, and I am sure I am not alone in this, of the double standard. Hey did anyone ever realize its Halloween and crazy stuff like that is gonna happen? So I guess if I take a dummy of a cat and hang it from my porch, that means I abuse animals?? NO! Lighten UP!!!
