Comments: No, God forbid it is our extreme dislike of his policies, it has to be RACISM!! The level of intellectual discourse on the left does not rise to pre-school. I fear for our Country if this is considered 'writing'.

Before looking I guessed that the writer could have been an affirmative action hire.

Anyone notice how Obamaites react to any criticism of the President as if they were Muslims offended by Mohammed criticism>

A Republican hangs a chair in his yard (just by a rope, no noose), and that is a ''hate lynching.
A Demon-RAT hangs a manikin caricature of Sarah Palin in his yard (using a noose) and that was just a ligh-hearted ''polical discourse''.
It's hard to try to reason with a lie-beral when they clearly have so few active brain cells...

Is L.A. Parker wearing eyeshadow and mascara? I know it's a grainy photo but it really looks like eyeshadow at least.

The is actually a difference between a hanging and a lynching.
Did a group of sheeted Klansmen break into the garage and drag the lawnchairs out kicking and screaming? Did they burn a cross before strapping the lawchair to the tree branch?

Heard of one hanging chair, not other copycats. But, anything to cry racism when your guy is not a landslide.

Parker is delusional. The finger tracing across the throat is a well-known expression of pull the theater curtain on a bad actor, or pull him out of the show. Parker wants to portray it as advocacy of physical violence.
He mentions the 20% of white voters who apparently have said they will never vote for a black president, but doesn't mention the 95% of black voters who have proven they will never support a white over a black.
By the way "hanging" a chair doesn't hurt it, and doesn't imply support for harming a person. Otherwise the many hangings of Bush in effigy would be hate crimes.

L. A. Parker is an affirmative action "columnist and TV personality" in Trenton, NJ.
I imagine he imagines nooses everywhere.
I saw exactly one hanging chair, dangling from a helicopter. That is really a reach, Parker.

#3 nice! I had a similar idea and have a number of jewelry-charm chairs for my precious handful of women patriot friends in this deep blue state.
Mine is on a necklace chain. So I guess I'm also hanging the Empty Chair, but around my neck, symbolizing the albatross he is to the nation.

Oh,come on. He just hanged the chair from a tree so he could mow under it. That why he would not have to move it every time he mowed. My story and I'm sticking to it.

If you go looking for an offence, you will surely be offended.
Mr. Parker, why is it racist to refuse to vote for somebody because of the color of their skin, but perfectly acceptable to vote for the same candidat only because of the color of their skin. If it is racist in the negative it is equally racist in the affirmative.

What kind of person says "strapping up empty lawn furniture"?
Strapping? What an odd choice of word. British perhaps?
Apparently L.A. Parker is working from a DNCC memo or JournOList from about 2 months ago. A pity the email isn't faster there.

The melanin-rich mayor of Trenton was recently arrested and charged with major fraud and corruption by the FBI. Tony Mack is just a small-time hustler compared to the empty chair the morons in Trenton voted for last time and will vote for again.

In 2011, the journalist Mara Hvistendahl published Unnatural Selection: Choosing Boys Over Girls, and the Consequences of a World Full of Men, detailing the societal effects of sex-selective abortions that target women the world over and resulted in the absence of perhaps more than 100 million girls who by now should have been born. But Hvistendahl soon learned the downside to uncovering what many believe to be a shocking trend in human rights offenses: people will want to do something about it. And so she lashed out, declaring that “anti-abortion activists

Neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson stepped down Wednesday as commencement speaker at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine after complaints from students about controversial comments concerning same-sex marriage. The withdrawal came less than a week after medical school Dean Paul B. Rothman chastised Carson for his comments and met with graduating students concerned that the famed physician was an inappropriate commencement speaker.

Is Anthony Weiner completely delusional? Or is he out of his flipping, sex-crazed gourd? Whatever big-busted fantasies crawl around the ex-congressman’s delirious noggin, la Weiner made his next goal as clear as the skin of the wholesome college students he craved: He relishes being Mayor Weiner. Please, shut up this clown. These days, the genitally obsessed Weiner has nothing much to do, except sit in his lavish Manhattan apartment and — the inhumanity! — change the poopy diapers of his 16-month-old son, Jordan. Worse, Weiner is living under a kind of house arrest, sentenced to take extreme grief

The Senate voted to move forward on gun control Thursday, clearing the first of what is expected to be many 60-vote hurdles for the legislation. (Snip) Sixteen Republicans voted in favor of the motion, while two Democrats — both from states President Obama lost in the 2012 election — voted against it. The two Democrats were Sens. Mark Begich (Alaska) and Mark Pryor (Ark.), both of whom face reelection next year.The 16 Republicans who voted to proceed were

Only one of my six children has left New York for economic reasons but the strain of living in this expensive nanny state is weighing heavy on my other five and their families. As a native New Yorker, I´ve seen its middle class population decline over the years due to its neglect of blue collar families which is ironic since this is a Democrat city. With the recent arrests of several local politicians for corruption perhaps New Yorkers will pay more attention to those they put in office. Given their past indifference in local elections this is highly unlikely.

Seven hundred Military Special Operations professionals. And one insistent and very angry Mom. This is becoming a deadly combination for the political game players in the Obama Administration. Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again. Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.

Within the next few decades, carbon emissions could cause global temperatures to rise between 4 and 11 degrees Fahrenheit, melting ice caps and causing sea levels to rise. The price of crops like coffee and chocolate will skyrocket, and countless cuddly animals around the globe could be wiped out. And yet, a lot of people find it hard to really care about climate change. But don´t be fooled: Climate change will affect you. Here´s a brief sampling of ways that warmer temperatures will suck the fun out of your life: 1. Your flights will be more turbulent

Remember little Anthony Freemont, played by cute little Billy Mumy, in one of the "Twilight Zone´s" most famous episodes? In the opening sequence Rod Serling informs us: "A monster had arrived in the village. Just by using his mind, he took away the automobiles, the electricity, the machines -- because they displeased him -- and he moved an entire community back into the dark ages -- just by using his mind. . . . and the people there have to smile. They have to think happy thoughts and say happy things because once displeased, the monster can wish them into a cornfield

Infant beheadings. Severed baby feet in jars. A child screaming after it was delivered alive during an abortion procedure. Haven´t heard about these sickening accusations? It´s not your fault. Since the murder trial of Pennsylvania abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell began March 18, there has been precious little coverage of the case that should be on every news show and front page.

During a conversation about gun violence on MSNBC this morning, Vice President Joe Biden explained that there was a growing group of gun owners that might not understand guns as well as hunters. “There is a whole new sort of group of individuals now who – I don’t know what the numbers are – that never hunt at all,” Biden said. “But they own guns for one of two reasons, self-protection or they just like the feel of that AR-15 at the range. They like the way it feels.” Biden imitated holding a weapon and added, “You know,
