See No Evil

I was gearing up to blame ‘the army’s culture of guns,’ but now I’m leaning more toward ‘alienating anti-Muslim environment.’

Obama wants you to read this post.

Actually, President Obama doesn’t know about this post (yet), but I was very curious about this advertising tactic I’ve been seeing in Facebook ads recently. So, I did a little research, and have come up with more questions than answers.

Lately, I’ve been seeing these ads in the right sidebar of my Facebook profile:

Obviously, with the popularity of Obama during the last election season among internet users, it’s easy to see why some advertising companies would be tempted to wring every last bit of social energy they can out of his name for as long as possible. These ads are appearing on Facebook feeds that talk about Obama, so they are apparently utilizing keywords, but obviously not semantic web techonology (as any reading of “tone” would detect that I am not exactly a fan of the current administration, and would not be likely to do ANYTHING simply because “Obama urged me to”).

Several companies have tried this, unsuccessfully. Here are some examples:

• Fried Chicken Places Slapped For Using Pres Obama’s Name
• Gun store catches heat over using Obamas name
• Russian ice cream ad using Obama’s image accused of being racist
• NBC rNBC rejects pro-life ad using Obama ejects pro-life ad using Obama

The problems encountered by the above companies have been carefully avoided in the ads appearing on Facebook. Obama’s name was not used as the name of the company in any of the ads, and the content of the ads was not controversial in nature.

Ok. But wait, there’s more…

A couple of days ago, I started clicking on these ads, and discovered that they are all being produced by the same company – Experian. Does that name sound familiar? Here’s a list of companies in what they call the “Experian Interactive Family”:

• PriceGrabber.com
• FreeCreditReport.com
• ClassesUSA.com
• Experian.com (one of the three major credit-reporting bureaus)

That’s right – a company that has access to ALL of your personal information – name, DOB, SS#, bank accounts, credit cards, etc., feels perfectly comfortable claiming that President Barack Obama endorses their products. Why is that?

I’d like to know what you think. Am I making something out of nothing, or is this something to be concerned about?

 

Sincere Apologies To The FHK Readers

I recently received an email from our beloved Jenn advising that my potty mouth was cause for concern to the FHK readership and that I should promptly ingest a few shavings of soap.  Well, I added that last part myself but the message came through loud and clear.

My honest, sincere apologies to any I may have offended, I often forget in my cocoon of country boy, hard working, hard playing, gun totin’, potty mouthed world that its not always appropriate.

After all, I wouldn’t stand in the middle of a crowd of women and children and spew obscenities, so I shouldn’t do it here.

Sincerest apologies… now stop reading my sniveling and go fight the good fight!

I do have one request though…

Well, isn’t that just precious? The Lockerbie Bomber has a blog.

Remember Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi? He’s also known as the “Lockerbie Bomber,” for his part in killing 270, including 190 Americans in 1988. Scotland recently released him, ostensibly on “compassionate” grounds, because he is supposedly terminally ill. After he was given a hero’s welcome in Libya, information has begun to surface, indicating that his release was most likely a deal for oil.

So…what’s the dying martyr wannabe up to now? He has his own website, declaring his innocence: MegrahiMyStory.net (Yes, I used rel=”nofollow” on that link!) Feel free to check it out – download the .pdf’s at your own risk (I didn’t, and wouldn’t recommend it).

 

Does ‘Anti-Obama’ Mean ‘Racist’

Neil Cavuto lets both guns unload as he discusses racism and Barack Obama. He makes some terrific points.

Glenn Beck Busts MSNBC Over Gun – Racism Charge

Watch the video all the way to the end to see how Glenn Beck busts MSNBC about their racism charges toward Barack Obama.

Abandon hope all ye who enter here…

 These words from Dante’s Divine Comedy are apt for all friends and allies of the United States and could be the future motto for Americans still living after the coming purge.

Obama is going to disregard years of diplomacy and promises of protection to Democratic nations. His actions will embolden Putin’s Socialist States to accomplish their aim of rebuilding the USSR. His failure to follow through on promises will cause even our staunchest allies to distrust us. His actions will make it easier for Iran to spread its umbrella of terror.

Obama has nationalized banking and automobiles. He has put capitalism under the control of his appointed “Czars” who aren’t responsible to the voters or Congress. They staff their offices  and draw in six figure salaries living off the sweat and hard work of tax paying Americans all the while pursuing their inane hatred of this country. They were plucked from a conglomeration of radical ideologies with a common goal, that of destroying American ideals.

From his Attorney General who won’t prosecute racists who attempted to intimidate voters but will pursue American intelligence Agents who blew second hand smoke into the faces of prisoner captured on the battlefield to his Homeland Security Secretary who thinks veterans, Bible readers, gun owners and conservative bloggers are the only real terrorists and his Science Czar who believes in population control and compulsory abortion, this Administration is a bunch of nuts and crackpots from every fringe element.

From a cap and trade con-game designed to destroy the financial backbone of America to give away programs like HR 3200, the Obama Kennedycare Bill, designed to create even more poverty and make more citizens dependent on handouts. While our enemies dance in the streets, shooting Christians our Great Leader is apologizing for our belief system. From a Green Czar who is an acknowledged communist with a belief that we deserved what happened on 9-11 to paid agitators who attack dissenting citizens, to “Bully” Congressmen who threaten legal businesses with subpoenas in an effort to shut them up. Censorship both of media and the internet, “false flags”, red herrings, and all the transparency of a brick wall from a Community Organizer who hides all his records. Smoke and mirrors, distraction and diversion are the norm while in the back rooms they plot to destroy this Nation.

And yet with all the Machiavellian manipulations of this Anti-American mob that is in power, too few Americans bother to get inform, even fewer speak out. Teachers who indoctrinate rather than teach, Politicians that go with the money rather than stand on principles.

I didn’t think any President could be as bad as Jimmy Carter, sadly I now know I was in error.

I have this say…

Wake the HELL up America !!

Why Obama’s Ineffectualness is Dangerous!

Like most veterans, my memories of my days in the service are a combination of good and bad. The best thing was the spirit of brotherhood; the comradery.

My worst times in the service all had one thing in common; ineffectual leaders.  Now please don’t take this wrong I served under some outstanding men, but I also met my fair share of ticket punching toadies.

I remember a day when my team and I were taking a break at a firebase on our way back from a mission when a butter bar (2d Lieutenant) came into camp on a slick (Huey). There he was in his crisply ironed jungle fatigues and polished boots, clean shaved and looking like a recruiting poster. The first words out of his mouth were, “Who in the hell set up these defenses? I want that heavy machine gun down  near the concertina (wire)!”

There were a few problems with this. First he was pointing at an M60 which is not a heavy machine gun and second by placing it closer to the wire limited its effectiveness. It was at that time localed properly high where its field of fire was about one third of the perimeter fence and over the heads of the camp’s defenders.. Right away this idiot opened his mouth, inserted his nicely shined boots and destroyed his credibility as a leader. I can only hope that later he changed before he got someone killed.

I have returned from long range missions and entered camp only to be accosted by some REMF ( Rear echelon M___F____, you get the idea) like the Sergeant Major who tried to take me to task for having improper boot laces (I used insulated wire since cotton and nylon would quickly rot in the jungle) and for the condition of my uniform (after a 14 day hump). His lambasting came to a quick halt when he looked into my eyes and he noticed my non-standard weapons (we carried Swedish K’s and Browning High Powers). He realized that I did not come under his authority. His first clue should have been the lack of rank and unit insignia. I pity the troops under this “spit and polish” idiot who didn’t have a clue.

We actually had some areas that we prohibited from returning enemy fire unless we radioed in for permission first, so that some REMF could decide if our lives were worth saving. This created a lot of animosity and uncertainty among troops on the front lines.

The problem with ineffectual leaders is that they can and do get people killed. They think they know it all and if they don’t know they will make it up as they go. They got ahead because of who they knew not what they did. This is a lot like what a Community Organizer does when elected to a high political office. Incompetent leaders will send underlings to their death and then cover up their ineptitude by “throwing someone else under the bus”.

A good leader does not operate in a vacuum. A leader must listen to those following. The first thing a good leader must acknowledge is that they do not know it all. The second thing they must realize is that they work for and represent the people following them. A good leader recognizes and admits mistakes, they also absorb the blame for mistakes of the people under them.

When you move into the higher echelons of power you become isolated and have to make a conscious effort to get out of the puzzle palace and become a normal grunt. You have to go face to face with the people following you because often your closest advisors have their own agendas or simply will tell you only what they think you want to hear. A deaf leader is one who rules from above and is the most detested and the most dangerous.  A blind and deaf leader is not a true leader they are a tyrant.

Does Obama Scare You?

(Updated)

I am revising an old quote instead of FDR’s original, “The only thing we have to fear is fear it’self – nameless, unreasoning, unjustified, terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.” I am changing it to:

The only thing we have to fear is is death, not only our death but the death of a great Republic.

A death orchestrated and controlled by a messianic anti-American President and a sycophantic Congress. A voting public that is bedazzled by false rhetoric and dumbed down by a liberal education system and a biased media. A populace the majority of which has been spoiled since birth to take rather than give.

Lou Prichett, a former VP of Proctor & Gamble wrote an open letter to the NYT, but as is normally the case the gray lady chose not to publish such an intelligent dissenting view. This is that letter:

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.

You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don’t understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and ‘class’, always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the ‘blame America ‘ crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer ‘wind mills’ to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use ‘extortion’ tactics against certain banks and corporations

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O’Reillys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Lou Pritchett

I have assembled a few quotes for you to ponder:

Fear is, I believe, a most effective tool in destroying the soul of an individual – and the soul of a people. (Anwar el-Sadat)

He who takes a stand is often wrong, but he who fails to take a stand is always wrong.

The brave don’t live forever, but the cautious don’t live at all. (Timothy Luce)

The best way out is always through. (Robert Frost)

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. (Ambrose Redmoon)

Is the News Media Becoming Color Blind?

Well, time for me to salt up some crow. I honestly didn’t think any good would come from the Obama Administration. I was hoping against hope that it would the platform wasn’t a bunch of lies, but alas I continue to look for some good and at last may have found some.

At first look we are now truly a nation that is color-blind, not even cynical news readers from the biased media can tell a white man from a black man. They have scrubbed race from the staples of journalism (who, what, when, where and why). They have eliminated race from their reporting for so long that they are now truly color blind.

Here is the un-cropped video of the “white” man by a rival media company.

 

Oops, after reviewing both tapes and the audio voice over guess I don’t have to eat any crow just yet,  since both of the alleged reporters attempted to make this a racial issue.

Since Obama is half black and half white, at least according to his alleged autobiography, it is only fitting that he is disliked by half the country.

The Constitution and the Bill of Rights is for all Americans regardless of ethnicity. Why is that belief so hard for the liberal media to understand?

Also an AR15 is a semi-automatic rifle NOT an assault rifle. An assault rifle is a selective fire weapon capable of semi or full automatic fire. These type weapons while legal are tightly controlled via tax stamps by the BATF. When will the pretty faces of news readers get the facts correct?

The liberal media is now asking the question, “What if a black liberal showed up at a Bush Rally carrying a loaded gun?” Well, that pre-supposes several other questions, like do liberals other than anarchists own guns? Are they in an open carry State?  If they did legally carry a gun to a rally I would worry that they would blow their own foot off… literally not figuratively like the liberal media. I wonder how the liberal media would try to spin that?

WWJD about the 2d Amendment

While watching a video clip about a car dealer who was giving away a firearm with each car purchase, I heard a left wing news reader spewing forth her usual liberal bias but this time she made a statement and the person she was trying to embarrass had an interesting answer albeit one that I disagreed with.

She took a page from the Conservative belief manual and asked the pro gun, 2d Amendment advocate “What would Jesus Do?” The man answered that they didn’t have guns back then but he is sure that Jesus would have carried a sword.

Actually I don’t think Jesus would have carried any weapon, today he would fall into the category of a “conscientious objector” but he would have served. We are very aware that Jesus’ disciples carried swords and that they used them.  Much more learned men than me have debated and philosophized about Jesus and his use of the word “sword” in His teachings.

My personal beliefs are that Jesus is the sword in the battle of good versus evil on the spiritual plane. You have to remember that Jesus Himself separated actions into the worldly and the spiritual. He advocated to his disciples that they stand up for themselves against tyranny and that they protect others. And I believe that that is the purpose of the 2d Amendment.

Owning and carrying a firearm is not “living by the sword” in my opinion. That phrase means living for violence not protecting yourself or others. If you own and/or carry a firearm you have a great responsibility. Knowing when and how to apply deadly force is not easy, it requires training and the proper mind-set.

When I had to pull the trigger I relied on three things, in this order, God, my gun and my training. Our forefathers understood human nature and knew that if the populace was disarmed that only tyranny would rule. That is why we have the 2d Amendment. The 2d Amendment gives us not only the right to bear arms but the responsibility to bear arms in order to prevent oppression. Carrying a weapon to protect yourself and others is not only a right but it is the patriotic thing to do.

None of us is perfect. The last perfect person on Earth was Jesus and we all know what the politicians did to Him.

You Are Not Allowed…

The Constitution of the United States has “deep flaws”. That’s Obama’s point of view. And as a result of his views the principle goal of his Administration has been to reshape America via the rejection of American values.

We see evidence from his speeches that he realizes this must be done in increments, making small changes now to effect larger changes later. An example is his views on the single payer health care system in 2003, his campaign, and now (re: the later you will notice that for some reason YouTube suspended it’s 10 minute rule for this video, HINT: the reason for this could be the Obama-Google connection). 

I have watched the actions and reactions of this Administration over the last 200 plus days and noticed a few points of interest.

*You are not allowed to complain,if you are white.

*If you disagree with Obama for any reason you are a racist.

*If you work, you should be grateful to pay others not to work.

*If you are against Obama’s brand Socialism you are _________ (insert appropriate answer: a fascist, a Nazi, a religious nut, a birther, a kook, a gun-loving killer, a domestic terrorist, brainwashed, a “Bush-ie”, a “ditto-head”,  etc).

*You are not allowed to reference any past comment by Obama that contradict his current comments.

This Administration thus far has combined biased media, Madison Avenue, and Chicago-Style thuggery into adulation for give away programs designed to bankrupt America for decades to come.

Saul Alinsky would be so proud of his protégée. Obama has studied Rules for Radicals, taught them to others and is now trying to stuff them down freedom loving American’s throats. As Alinsky taught and wrote ordinary Americans are “the enemy”.

The time to choose a future course for America is now. Choose to be a worker or a taker; a tool or an individual; free or enslaved; silent or vocal. The choice is yours but remember your choice affects your children and their children.

Obama’s Communist State

Well folks, it has finally happened. Obama has begun his attacks on America’s citizens in earnest.

I was doing a bit of research via Google and was SHOCKED to find that Obama has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams when he wanted to get people
identified who had the audacity to question HIS Communist styled, Government Mandated, healthcare plan. Check this out.

It isn’t bad enough that Obama is sending in his Union Thugs. He will do ANYTHING to suppress the American people!

We need to get out there, and overwhelm these forces working to destroy our way of life. Today’s Democrat Party is doing more damage to our
freedoms than EVER occured from the terrorist attacks. We need to get in the faces of every Democrat politician and demand an explanation for this
criminal activity. We need to let the Obama forces know that they Will Not make a mockery of our Constitution.

Are you on Obama’s hate list yet?

PLEASE, add in links which further demonstrate Obama’s attacks on Americans when you comment below.

Obama is certainly doing his homework.

Al-Qaeda Threatens France Over Burqa

Today, al-Qaeda threatened France over the ostensible issue of the burqa. Tommorrow, America will be in their gun sights on this same issue.

The burqa, niqab–even hijab–are being used as pawns in the power struggle between jihadic Islam and the West. These dress codes are primarily political in nature.

For those people who really and truly believe that the burqa is a religious and not a political/jihadic issue–consider this:

According to the United States monitoring service SITE Intelligence, Al-Qaeda, has just announced that it plans to “take revenge on France for its opposition to the burka, calling on Muslims to retaliate against the country.” Abu Musab Abdul Wadud, head of Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb said…Continue reading on Chesler Chronicles >>
