A Mecklenburg County affiliate was ordered to take down photos from its Facebook page that depicted photoshopped images of PresidentBarack Obama as a witch doctor, caveman, and a thug in a wife beater. While the photos were removed on Thursday morning, the eye candy for Obama haters had reportedly been up for months before anything was done about it, reports theLos Angeles Times.

Mecklenburg County Republican Party chairmanWally Hudson, who posted up the images himself, initially refused to remove the photos, telling the Washington Post, “If that group is sensitive, I’m sorry, they’re just not human.  It’s not American.  If they’ve got a problem with it, we’re not going to change what we do.  We know our regular readers, who are good conservatives, they’re gonna get a kick out of it, said Hudson, 55, a retired airline flight crew member who became chairman in May.
