DescriptionGREENVILLE, S.C. -- A mannequin with a picture of Sen. Lindsey Graham's face taped to the head was hung in effigy in downtown Greenville by a protester.

Randall Terry, a nationally-known pro-life supporter from Washington, D.C., came with three supporters to tape a portion of his television show called, "Randall Terry: The Voice of the Resistance."

The anti-abortion activist filmed two skits while in downtown. One of them involved Randall's employee constructing gallows to hang the mannequin with Graham's picture on it.

The other skit involved a stick and a pinata. The workers hit the pinata, which had a picture of Graham on it, until plastic babies fell out of it.

Terry said he was upset with Graham's decision to confirm President Barack Obama's Supreme Court nominee, Elena Kagan. Terry said he'd gone to other states and staged similar protests in front of offices of Republican senators who voted in favor of Kagan's nomination.
