The Loudon County Republican Committee invited people to a Halloween parade with a cartoon of a zombie President Obama with a bullet hole in his head, Wonkette reports*.

In better news, this illustration was first publicly called out by a conservative blogger, and the Virginia Republican Party has been quick to distance themselves from the invitation:

“The disgusting image used today on a mass e-mail has no place in our politics. Ever,’’ said Pat Mullins, chairman of the state party. “The Republican Party of Virginia condemns the image and its use in the strongest possible terms.”

* Important nerdy note: Even an eight-year-old knows that if you shoot a zombie in the head, the zombie dies. Therefore, you can't shoot someone in the head and then bring them back as a zombie. Loudon County Republicans can't even get their monster lore right.
