EBAY takes down the Sarah Palin Effigy a Second Time

Why won't the two West Hollywood Morons go away?

In an attempt to stretch out their 15 minutes of infamy, Chad Michael Morrisette and his partner, Mito Aviles, put their Sarah Palin effigy on EBay. You remember these idiots. They are the two who thought it would be funny to put a noose around a Sarah Palin mannequin for Halloween and hang it from their front porch.

The nation revolted against them, liberals and conservatives, gays and straight though it was offensive. Even the King of All Liberals, Kieth Olbermann called the two "The Worst People In the World" on his show.

EBay pulled the effigy off its site this morning for violating its policies.

It was back up by noon. The picture of the noose was gone and instead of the title "Sarah Palin Effigy," it was entitled "Sarah Palin Mannequin."

But the people at EBAY are not stupid. Enough people from this blog and other sites wrote and the -um- Mannequin - has been taken down.

The Los Angeles Times picked up the story late this afternoon. You can read it by clicking here.

But the comment section interested me more than their write up. Here are a couple -
Misogyny lives, and from gay men no less. I am disappointing with my gay brothers for such a tasteless display, but I'm glad eBay did the right thing by removing the item. Can we stop beating up on women now?

How pathetic. What moron would even give 5 cents for this piece of mindless trash. It seems OK to have an effigy of a hanged white female but would be judged a hate crime if it was any other race.

I am gay, and these two guys embarrass me beyond no end. How can our community expect people to understand and accept us when this display of hatred is put forth for all to see? And anyways, these two guys can't be that great of designers; the mannequin is tacky and doesn't even look like Sarah Palin. The hair looks more like a wig you'd find on Bob Costas.

This morning when it was put back up someone (gee I wonder who) from the LA area posted here to alert me.

My guess is that Jack and Azz will try and put this up again. Keep reporting it to EBAY. They have millions of items, but seem to respond quickly to your complaints.

Lets keep these two idiots from peddling their hate.
