Oh forg, horrible mental image from title. Hold on.

EDIT: Um, your title seems to suggest either the Feds are investigating Obama of some wrongdoing or are testing the limits of Obama's resistance or patience.

Lynching a black doll, not good. But not expected.

Yeah , sometimes you have to write headlines with 'pull' , or that spring a surprise on the mind of Folk , kind of like smackin 'em , just 'cause
it's so gorramned funny to watch 'em melt down...

" Feds probe Obama effigy " , now THAT'S funny , especially in view of the photo Linked above...

You mean 'not unexpected' , right ?

I meant not expected considering the thread title.

But, since the mental image was intentional, I think the alternative effigy title works pretty well. Suddenly it's an entirely different kind of doll we're talking about here.

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


Dumb title, in my opinion. Typical PN-type attempt to pull people in by misrepresentation.

Made YOU look...Thanks !

The quote used was accurate , if not complete...

That's the whole point of a headline ; to draw readers in , and hold their attention until they discover something .

Seems that much remains undiscovered , for you...

Familiar with the term "lie by omission"? Case in point.

Just what we need, another PN who has to deceive to get folks to read their stuff. Sad.
