No, that's a deflection attempt and not the topic of discussion. Is anyone on the right willing to admit how vial it is to depict the president in this way?

So the Huffigton post is circulating this fantasizing about it. The first line of the article is the exact opposite of the thread title. That describes the honesty of this thread

I don't ever recall a depiction of Bush with a bullet through his head... or any other President for that matter. By the way, this is not the first depiction of Obama like this from the right.

Yes, and if you lefties could not figure that out from the headline (GOP condems) then i'm sorry.

Are you willing to condem the left for their vial and pure hatred towrds the righties?

No defelction the topic was from the link posted to start the thread. The title of this whole thread does not agree with the article posted.

Was the bullet hole in question put there before or after he became a zombie? That minor detail is quite important because shooting a president is never justified, but shooting a zombie always is.

Not surprised at this. There needs to be more respect for the office of the President as well. Even with Bush in office, I still had respect because he was our President even though I hated his policies and the poor decision-making. When he had shoes thrown at him, I was angry - as a slight against him, was a slight against our country.

The Right seems to throw the baby out with the bathwater - and their hatred is SO EXTREME, that they even hate the office too. A lot of them have no respect at all - and it seems their patriotism is declining too in our nation. Very sad, as some of them has publicly stated they want to form their own governance, separate from the U.S. I see this as a growing trend at how far extreme the Right has gone.
