Election Season 2014

And it has brought us to this trainwreck called ObamaCare and we have bankrupted our kids and grandkids!

We are now headed into the 2014 Election Season and common sense and conservatism are on the rise. Please stand-up and be counted!

Reading Collusion: How the Media Stole the 2012 Election is a great place to start!

And remember the words of Thomas Jefferson "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

Fight For Old Glory: Will Media Help Sell the New Obama American Flag?

M.O.M.'s - Moms of Military are addressing the cause of defacing Old Glory...

There's a new American flag available on the Internet that has a picture of President Obama in the corner where the stars representing our fifty states normally reside.

Given how our media have assisted in selling Obama paraphernalia since Inauguration Day, one has to wonder what their position will be on the attractive keepsake pictured right.

As NewsBusters has chronicled, news outlets up until now haven't been shy about pushing product associated with the new president (larger picture of flag below the fold, h/t Atlas Shrugs):

  • The CBS "Early Show" promoted Obama dolls in April
  • NBC Universal's online store offers at least 29 Obama-related items for sale
  • The CBS "Early Show" addressed how Obama merchandise was tough to keep on the shelves when the first family vacationed on Martha's Vineyard over the summer.

With this in mind, why not push the new Obama American flag?

Makes you want to stand and say the Pledge of Allegiance, doesn't it?

Exit question: should this be called an Obamican flag? Or just an Abomination of the Obama Nation?

Actually, there is something intrinsically creepy about this, especially if you have been connecting the dots!

Perhaps it would make him want to salute the flag though…?

If there is not a law against defacing our flag… there should be!!

During the Primaries:

This should have been our first clue…

Barack Hussein Obama refuses to salute US flag

I think that picture says it all. And, he refuses to wear the American Flag on his lapel. This was started by Patriotic Officials after 911 occurred. He does not deserve to be President, he nor his Wife love America. However, they have taken all the good that America has offered them. Including their elite education and the opportunity to be where they are today. And, then they dishonor their Country. Quoting Michelle, America is mean and this is the first time she has ever been proud to be an American. They chose to honor a hate filled man's rhetoric. He is certainly NOT 'a man of GOD'. Reverend should never be a prefix in front of this hate filled person. The vessel to Hell will surely overflow with false prophets and he will be at the helm.

Flag ban lifted at Oaks Apartments after outcry


Oak Apartments in Albany, Ore.

Updated: ALBANY, Ore. -- Flags are OK again at an Albany apartment complex after the property manager reviewed the policy and decided she didn't have the legal standing to ban flags from the exteriors of apartments and vehicles parked at the complex.Flag ban lifted at Oaks Apartments after outcry

"If people want to fly any flag of any nationality, it's their right," said Barb Holcomb with Oaks Apartments.

KVAL News also contacted the American Civil Liberties Union to ask whether the policy banning flags from the apartment complex violated any laws. The answer from the ACLU: No.

But Holcomb said she received different legal counsel that led her to believe she is wrong to ban the flags.

"When a tenant rents the unit, the inside of the unit belongs to the tenant," Holcomb said Wednesday. "All automobiles and things attached to the automobiles are the personal property of the tenant."

Holcomb said the flag ban was based on interpretation of two sections of the rental agreement all tenants sign.

"What we were trying to do was to keep the peace," she said, declining to say whether a specific incident sparked enforcement of the ban. "Obviously, we were wrong. If the peace needs to be kept, it belongs to the police department."

She said her boss has stood by her -- both when she enforced the policy and when she lifted it.

"I made a policy. I was wrong," she said. "My boss is a wonderful man. He backed me 100 percent -- even when I was wrong."

The story garnered national attention because of the ban on American flags, although the policy did not specifically single out the U.S. flag and allow the flags of other nations.

The result for Holcomb: Numerous phone calls from the media.

"If they want to speak to me, they speak to me," she said of the calls. "If they want to yell at me, they yell at me."

KVAL News asked whether she had talked to the resident who originally went to the media with the story. Holcomb said no, although she said she would talk to him -- and would have talked to him before he went to the media. Holcomb said he did not approach her before talking to KVAL News partner KATU.

"He's just a romping, stomping patriot," Holcomb said.
