A Halloween-themed graphic featuring a zombie President Barack Obama with a bullet hole in his forehead provoked widespread outrage and the attention of the Secret Service Monday after a local Republican committee in Virginia used it to scare up interest in Halloween parade political activities.
The montage, a banner on a mass email to Loudoun Republicans, mingles seasonal images including a jack-o-lantern, a disfigured U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi and a throng of flesh-hungry zombie Obama supporters.
The posterized image of a rotting, undead Obama with a bleeding, large-caliber hole an inch above his right eye prompted Democrats to cry foul and Virginia's Republican governor to denounce it as “shameful and offensive.”
“This is a disgusting and violent portrayal of the president of the United States,” said Democratic Party of Virginia spokesman Brian Coy.

I don't condone the Republican committee sending this out.
Nor do I condone the version that shows a bullet hole in Obama's head.
That said, in non-official communication I rather like this depiction of Obama. He and his minions are zombie followers of a bankrupt philosophy...who are hell bent on destroying any American with a brain.
(Reuters) - An effigy of U.S. Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin hanging by a noose as part of a Halloween display drew complaints on Monday, but local officials said the homeowner was covered by free speech rights.
The outrage over the supposed hole in his head is overblown. The hole in question is nothing more than a third eye with graphic ocular discharge
never seen those. ever. of course, i’ve never been to a rave or slamdanced, either.
“that’s really sick. really, inexcusably, sick.”
lol are you serious?!? that graphic has been around for ages. It’s funny as heck. I think it’s a people’s cube image?
Crap like this is perfectly ok however.

Yes, quite. But we clearly spring from differing gene pools.
Say, who asked you, anyway?
I have NO problem with it. No offensive image of GWB was ever criticized by the leftist leaders, and he wasn’t even a communist muslim hell-bent on our destruction. FUBO and all who support him...gloves are off.
Poor taste? Absolutely. But this is just another round of PC-ness designed to kill free speech from the right. Nothing will EVER change on their side.
LOL!
Can I say that?
You asked, by posting on a public forum the purpose of which is to chat with others about posted subjects.
But ...but. . . it’s just Arrrrtttt! (Art).
Isn’t it??
Indeed. Bush was also hanged and burned in effigy.
The hypocrisy of the left knows no bounds.
Get a life.
I’m tired of this “we’re better than them”....
If the democRATS want us to play nice, then they need to play nice too. Else we can hang Barry the Bolshevik in effigy
You are certainly free to do so. I won’t be joining you.
whatever advances socialism and gives leftist elitists more power - that is their overarching “moral high-ground”.
