Yep.

Maybe the morons involved should get a stay in this GITMO place they're so fond of.

If the universe had a sense of justice.

I'd like to meet the person that thought that would be a good idea, just so I know to never under any circumstances to solicit advice on anything whatsoever from them.

GAT_00: Just waiting to hear how some Republican will explain this away. You know, after they get their talking points, so probably tomorrow morning.

I will try: "It's a pagan holiday. Like Christmas."

What the fark is wrong with these people? That is farking awful.

Obligatory?

Loudoun County GOP chairman Mark Sell said in an email response to The Associated Press that the graphic was "a light-hearted attempt to inject satire humor into the Halloween holiday."

"Apparently, some individuals have interpreted an image of Barack Obama that appeared within the email as intending to portray the President as a victim of a violent crime," Sell wrote. "Nothing could be further from the truth, and we deeply and sincerely apologize to the President and anyone who viewed the image if that was the impression that was left."

I understand it is for Halloween but I don't understand how they didn't realize how inappropriate that is.

GIS for obama zombie did not disappoint.

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.



oooo...yeah. don't do stuff like that. the Secret Service tends to take a dim view of death threats towards the Office of the President.

Bathia_Mapes: You most definitely don't want to piss off the Secret Service. They aren't known for their sense of humor.

Yeah, I think someone on the GOP side got an unexpected and free anal probing out of this.

Oh they didn't...

*click*

Oh they did.

So much for being "pro-life." Damn hypocrites.

You have to support the president*!

Wasn't that the party line from 2001-2008?

_{*Support conditional on party affiliation and skin color.}

Wow. Just wow.

Bathia_Mapes: You most definitely don't want to piss off the Secret Service. They aren't known for their sense of humor.

Zombie Obama? Meh.

With a bullet wound? What the f*ck were you thinking? Please tell me you were drunk when you came up with that dumb idea.

I'm not outraged. I lack outrage skills. Both sides are silly, so vote for the one who doesn't act as silly.

But it was a zombie Obama, so it's okay!

Man, wtf is wrong with people??

hitchking: Okay, all this ominous talk of how the Secret Service shows up at your door the instant you make a death threat to the President... is that true?

I hope it is. But I never read about it actually happening, I just see a self-perpetuating internet meme.


Link (new window)

Jacob Volkmann is a UFC fighter and chiropractor, he felt the health care reform act would hurt his business. So he said he wanted to take on Obama, "knock some sense into him", etc. Stupid sh*t to say no matter how you feel, but the Secret Service investigated. It was clearly hyperbole but they don't mess around.

Well, it's no "Obama Bucks" but grown-ups really should know better.

supposedly way back in the day it happened on fark.

ignatiusst: You don't even want to know what they did to this kid.



Its deeper than that.

Its deeper than anyone wants to know.

I remember hearing about that in subsequent threads.

Hey now, that pisses them off even worse. You know the Secret Service has special jurisdiction over counterfeiting (new window), right?

Somacandra: I remember hearing about that in subsequent threads.

I've even heard the name before but I 'll be damned if I can remember it now.

Around 2005-06 iirc. I can't remember the user either. I was around at the time but my memory sucks.

is there anything in the picture that indicates that the bullet wound was inflicted before obama died (perhaps of natural causes) and subsequently rose from the dead as a zombie? because once he's a zombie, i have to believe that our system of government wouldn't allow him to remain on as president, and at that point, a zombie headshot is a laudable accomplishment, not a cause for cheap partisan finger-wagging.

You forgot about The Gipper.

I'm a bit confused.

Do people up vote these threads because they agree with the content posted at the link, or do they up vote them because of some other reason?

/Serious question
//Down voted. Those people are idiots and need to stop breeding.

Both sides are bad, so vote republican.
