Yet more demonstrable evidence that Obama disdains the warrior mentality of our Navy SEAL’s. RIP, Chris Kyle!

I’ll bet that if Mr. Kyle was black he would have ordered the flags at half mast. He is a flaming racist and this is just more evidence of it.

Did O forget that his Mom was white & that he’s half black & half white? Too bad he couldn’t claim his white half & act like he cared about white people rather than divide our whole country & set race relations back at least 50 years! He does anything that is convenient to him-he’s a narcissistic, unintelligent psycho that the sheeples voted back in!

His goal is to divide the country.

Theyre Giles goes again showing his rasicism and his love of the military. Whitney Houston was a sweet treasure and a victim of fame. WHY DON’T YOU NAME THIS SIGHT HATERS.COM?

Todd I still can’t see why her being a star warrants the Flag at half staff and yet a true Hero doesn’t even get a word from this so called commander and chief if any one should show some kind of respect for any fallen hero of this country but I guess he didn’t die in country and you know he would not be mentioned then.

Thank the “current” military for defending your sick-minded rights to post your opinion here. You should spend some time in a third world country with dictators and then revisit your retoric about love of military.
Whitney Houston was famous for singing and acting. What part of patrotism is there in that? She was a money slut like every other person who wants to be famous and live the free life. Then instead of basking in the glory of her success, she decided to blow it all on a little high time. How is this defending or contributing to our countries freedom?
I for one would never offer up the flag flying at half mast for anyone other than those that laid down their life to insure the stars and stripes flew FREE forever.
Ben Pincus
I appreciate Todd’s opinion and the fact that he is brave enough to share it here. His belief is sincerely representative of a large segment of American culture. Beating Todd up will not change his mind—and we very much want to change his mind. I agree that phrases like “victim of fame” are ridiculous, although the phenom of celebrities wrecking their own lives is very common. It betrays the inner emptiness that is only deepened by the secular Atheist culture. One way to change things over time is to make a committed marriage and raise 6 or more conservative children. If conservative whine about “affordability” and “how hard it is” then liberals will bury us. Liberals are too busy having “fun” and doing their crack to bother about the future. Walking the walk for conservatives means reproducing (a lot!) and raising our children with positive values. I worry that too many of us don’t do that, we are so busy yelling at the liberals. Make babies!

clbrown
There goes one of the moron-radical-left, who see nothing but skin color (because that’s about as far as their ability to discern goes).
That Todd sees ONLY the race here is a sign of TODD’S RACISM, and of nothing else.
Show me any remark, by Gyles or anyone else, who said that “Whitney Houston was less important than Chris Kyle because she was black.”
The point was not about “the color of the skin” but about “the content of the character” of each individual. You may, Todd, remember who’s most famous for talking about that. Any clue in that pot-addled brain of yours? No?
Houston was a talented singer… but she was a human being, not a “treasure,” and the only thing she was a “victim” of was her own behavior. HER BEHAVIOR. No one else’s.
Houston killed herself, through her inability to behave as a mature, responsible adult. You can say that she was “destroyed by her fame,” but let’s be clear… lots of famous people never go down that path. It’s just that the path to spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on drugs is not available to those who haven’t found that level of “success.”
Let me say that again. HOUSTON KILLED HERSELF. SHE KILLED HERSELF THROUGH HER LACK OF PERSONAL SELF-CONTROL AND LACK OF MORAL CONVICTION.
It’s a sad thing that she died as she did, but her death was just the culmination of a long, sad decline… one that people like you, who “idolized” her, pushed her along. Yes, your “worshipful” tone towards her… as a societal thing… is a primary contributing factor to her decline. So, in a sense, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR HER DEATH, Todd. And by continuing to treat her as something other than an ordinary human being who just happened to have a good singing voice, you’re potentially pushing others, who’ll follow in her self-destructive footsteps, into the same path, and to the same sad ending.
Naturally, Todd shows his own true (pathetic) colors here by associating “rasicism” (sic) and “love of the military” as being similarly “negative” traits. But you’ll be hard-pressed to find a single hint of “rasicism” (sic) coming from anyone on the right. It’s always you moronic neo-fascist leftists who insist on viewing people, not as individuals, but as members of some easily-stereotyped “group.”
As far as “love of the military” being somehow a NEGATIVE… Todd, you’re a clueless @#$*. You only have the freedoms you have today due to those of us who either serve today or have served previously. We put our lives on the line to defend the right of sniveling little self-indulgent brats like you to express your self-righteous, preening, self-stroking fatuous rants… the least you could do would be to recognize that, in every case where “your side” has won the day, suppression of any form of societal (social or political) dissent has been the first casualty.
Don’t believe me? You might want to wipe the crack-pipe-smoke residue from the corners of your eyes and actually read a history book or two. In particular, you might want to study the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, and the rise and fall of the Third Reich. Both saw exactly the sort of program which people like you are promoting at the core of their “liberalization” which eventually led to the abuses which we’re all familiar with (well, except for those of you who’ve burnt out too many brain cells to be able to remember past this morning, I suppose!)
Finally, Todd… I haven’t seen a bit of “hate” on this site, coming from the authors/owners… but your post, above, was undeniably an expression of your own intolerance and hatred. I don’t “hate” you, by the way, but I do find your behavior to be pathetic and reprehensible… and I really hope that you might, someday, actually grow up and figure out what all ADULTS understand…
That “honoring” someone who was given every advantage in life, and yet destroyed herself entirely of her own accord, may be sad, but it’s not something worth of HONOR. Meanwhile, Chris Kyle, who put his life into danger VOLUNTARILY every single day in order to protect people like you, and who wrote a best-selling book and gave all proceeds from that book to charity… and who died trying to help someone who desperately needed his help, putting himself (once again) out, selflessly, for others… he deserves all the honor we could give to him.
See the difference between Whitney Houston and Chris Kyle, Todd?
It’s not the difference you (being the racists you are) see… it’s not about the color of their respective skin.
It’s the fact that Whitney Houston represents self-indulgence, lack of self-control, lack of self-respect, and total devotion to herself, ignoring everyone and everything else.
It’s the fact that Chris Kyle represents self-sacrifice, tremendous self-discipline, embracing of personal honor and responsibility, total devotion to others and to what he believed to be right, even at the cost of his own life.
If you could get past your own racism, you might be able to see that.
Aristophanes
This is why I figure there is no hope for liberals. Whitney DID have a beautiful voice until she decided drugs were better. She was not a “victim”, she decided all by herself that she liked drugs more. I just love how you liberals can close your eyes to obvious racism on YOUR president’s behalf and yet try to claim racism on a conservatives behalf when he points out the obvious racism liberals display. You are such hypocrites!! Try, just once, to use what little brains God gave you and realize that you fearful leader is a RACIST!!
Timmay49
How about: “We all just hate Todd”.com? That would be more appropriate!!

boccagalupe
Victim, victim?? That broad was a victim? The woman was given talent and she wasted it. Was she victimized by some errant needle jumping into her arm? or maybe some pills jumping into her mouth? Or was she victimized by earning a fortune which she used to sicken herself. She had it all, Talent, beauty, career but she herself wasted it. So very very sad. She earned no national honors.

There you go again Todd, showing your ignorance to double standards and disdain towards the Military. Stick to the Huffington Post and Occupy blogs…

Obama clearly despises the militay, any clear thinking person can see this. He will do everything in his power to dismantle our military before he leaves office. Chris Kyle is a hero and has done more for this country than this lousy community organizer and crackhead singer could ever do. You see he loved his country and his fellow teammates and was willing to pay the ultimate price. And unfortunately while trying to help another vet he did just that. I dont need the organizer to tell me when to lower my flag to half staff, I did it on my own! If we wait for him to do the right thing it will never get done. May God bless all of our troops.

Chris Kyle is a true Texas Hero and Patriot right up there with another Texas patriot and hero Audie Murphy. Chris was a good and decent man and did not deserve to be murdered nor did his friend.

Honorable Kyle should not have dead the way he did! Personally, I believe he had been in the real world to long. He put to much trust in this man he was trying to help. This shooter had problems and for Chris to turn his back on him, I don’t understand or turn your back on him with a loaded gun. I believe there is more to this story than what we will ever know. Chris, you were a great American and will be missed. Rest in peace, watch over those in harms way.

IT’S BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK PEOPLE!!!! Obama is as BIG a RACIST and any BLACK RACIST out there. He is also a MUSLIM! Therefore he can employ “Taqiyya” which according to the Quran states that it is “acceptable” to LIE TO AN INFIDEL. That means especially to a mostly Christian nation. Chris Kyle single handedly “whacked” 160 of Obama’s “brethren”. This is why he would call for “half staff” for a black crackhead instead of an AMERICAN HERO. How that for “change”?
well, to be clear, I believe it was Chris Christie who ordered the flags in New Jersey lowered for the crackhead.
Am I wrong?

This tells you where our world is going, right things are wrong and wrong things are right.
I see it everyday and have been effected by it in my life.
The up-bringing I received from my parents (which were very traditional) has become an oxi-moron to the world. When you try to explain to young people what is truelly right and what was wrong, compared to life back in the day (50′s, 60′s & 70′s) they look at you like a calf looking at a new gate. They can’t comprehend what you are trying to explain to them, they are a lost generation, they live entirely based on emotion and what feels good or bad to them, there is no logic or common sense in their view of life.
The conservatives have lost the younger generation and we are can’t seem to get them back, we have let the media and the loons re-educate our youths to their thinking and logic and now we have what we have today.

Seems the Republicans are afraid to call Obummer out on anything he does, for fear of being branded ‘racist’. If lowering flags to half-staff for “the Screamer”, and not for Chris Kyle isn’t ‘racist’, I don’t know what is.

I’m Pro-Military/Chris Kyle and a music fan and a fan of Facts. This is Not accurate. Only Republican Governor Chris Christy ordered flags in New Jersey be at half mast for Whitney Houston. She did not take a fatal dose of drugs & alcohol but suffered a heart attack & then drowned as a result of her long use of drugs. It’s disgusting that Obama didn’t recognize Mr. Kyle in the State of the Union address or in some manner. Ms. Houston honored the military just as well as you do so let her rest in peace.
obxned
Didn’t you get the word? Under ObamaSpeak, crackhead now means ‘innocent victim’ and hero is now ‘probable terrorist’. Since up in now down, flushing money down the toilet is ‘investing’, and Christians, conservatives, gun owners, patriots of any type, and Tea Party members all need to be watched closely, this should all make sense to you.
Shears_of_Atropos
Sniping, like war in general, is dirty work and corrodes the soul. Some of the stronger are able to survive it without going insane, and some others can’t. Kyle was killed working with one who couldn’t handle it.
Who among us would volunteer to be an executioner for the State? Indeed, what sane person loves killing?

People understand, and respond to their ‘life experiences’is surely the reason that potus did not order flags at half staff for Kyle, yet did for Houston. As a person, he would no more fight for this country that he wants to dismember than he would fight for antarctica. therefore he simply does not understand what it means to have empathy for a person that has ‘love of country’. On the other hand, he is familiar with the drug culture (by his own words) and has understanding and a sense of brotherhood with the druggies. Tsk,Tsk, and here you thought he was cold hearted. He’s passionate about the demise of the U.S.A.

Most people do not fully appreciate the role a military person serves. Always thank the military for TRYING to protect the people of a nation against the foreign enemies. Remember too, the fight is actually between the governments of the different nations and not always the citizens. Governments have powerful people who pretend to be on the peoples side but are actually causing wars for wealth and personal power. If every young person knew the real reason they were offering up their lives for, they would all head to Canada like during the Viet Nam era.
Every soldier, in war, believes he is doing right by the people he/she loves at home. Chris Kyle did an excellent job for the country he loved because he believed he made a difference back home. He did, but not the way most soldier’s think.
God knows the heart of every man and woman and their reward, or discipline, will be handed to them in due time.
Chris did know more than most returning soldiers and he offered them his best advice on how to recapture their civilian lives and to look ahead and not linger on the past.
We will miss him dearly…..

According to Snopes.com Chris Christie ordered flags flown at half-mast in NJ and Obama didn’t do the same nationally.

As a veteran, I’m insulted with this guys arrogance. Can’t wait for this traitor to get his! That day should be a national holiday!!

The same individual that barred voting from the military. I really hope in the end the military doesn’t support the disarmament of the civilian population.

When is Congress and Senate going to start doing their job and either impeach Obama or vote his policies down and support the Anerican people. We are sick of this phony Waahington Administration and Obama’s false power.

It was not Obama. The governor of New Jersey ordered flags in his state only to be flown at half-staff on the day of her funeral.

Because Obama is a racist piece of dog doodoo. Reminds me when i was in the Air Force and My supervisor wrote a commendation medal to a hispanic for just extending his tour of duty overseas but yet I went TDY in the desert in Egypt during Bright Star excercise and got nothing but a few letters of appreciation from a General and Colonel. But they are worthless towards promotion. A commendation medal is worth 3 points I believe.

Now, if you can give me legitimate, substantiated reference to Obama calling for half staff, I’ll believe it. Right now, though, the only viable information I have seen is that Gov. Christie called for New Jersey flags to be flown at half staff because Houston was a resident or past resident of New Jersey.
And yes, while Mr. Kyle was indeed an American hero of the highest order, if we were to fly the flag at half staff for each hero that passed, our flag would never see the top of the staff.

Need we say any more. One pos honors another.
MOMULE
Obama, The Great Divider. He has done more harm to this country than any other person in history. We will suffer, our children and grandchildren will suffer at the hands of this arrogant man.
He said he read scripture to make him a better man. I don’t think he reads the same Bible Christians read.
Susan
You are so ignorant and scary
REALLY HORRIFIC IN YOUR STUPIDITY

Republican Governor Chris Christie ordered the flags, in New Jersey only, flown at half staff for Whitney Houston. It was not a nationwide thing (people really should remember this, it’s not ancient history)
Republican Governor Rick Perry refused to order the flags in Texas flown at half mast for former SEAL Chris Kyle, because he wasn’t Active Duty when he was killed.
Obama had nothing to do with either decision, but that won’t stop this meme from being uncritically recirculated by people eager to share anything that makes a politician they dislike look bad.
Susan
Yes and the REPUBLICAN gov. Of Texas…Rick Perry… REFUSED to lower the flags in Texas….where Kyle is from because Kyle was not on active duty
GOOD LORD
DOES THE TRUTH MEAN NOTHING TO YOU

Not you John

I think I’d rather die with my American pride and dignity intact than to have my memory tarnished by Obama muttering any insincere accolades about me or my military service… Think about the value of a Nobel Peace Prize now that Obama has one… RIP Chris.
lokiswife
The reason is obvious – people honor people who share their same values. Chris Kyle’s values weren’t the same as Obama’s, Obama has more respect for Hollywood and the Beyonce crowd. Thank God that almost half of America has a higher set of values than Obama (they voted against him!)
Randy131
It doesn’t take a genius to figure out Obama’s motive for the desceptancy here, one is white and the other is black, which do you think the honor of the flag flying at half-mast went to. All the many little details of racism exhibited by Obama, and people claim you’re a racist if you bring them up or to anyone’s attention.

Why not put the Kenyan deamon on the mast.Everyone would fall to their knees in admoration! Just kidding but something should be done yesterday!

Hey idiots
The REPUBLUCAN Gov. of New Jersey ordered the flags lowered. He did the same for Clarence Clemmons when he died. Two entertainers that CRISTIE felt were important to New Jersey.
You are all a bunch of BAGGERS and IDIOTS
Isabelle
They were only lowered in NEW JERSEY.
YOU ARE ALL TOO STUPID TO BELIEVE

Hey Idiots
The REPUBLICAN Gov. Of New Jersey ordered them lowered ONLY in New Jersey. He did the same for Clarence Clemmons. Two entertainers CRISTIE felt were important to New Jersey.

Why don’t you all go after fellow IDIOT Rick Perry??? He REFUSED to lower the flags in Texas because Kyle was not on active duty when he was killed??
meglvsJC
Please…Where is the story? Come on…As far as I can tell it was CHRIS CHRISTIE
who did this. Mr Giles….you need to keep all this stuff on the up and up. If there is nothing to report for the day …don’t report anything.

NJ Gov Chris Christie (R) is the one who ordered the flags at half mast, not the POTUS. How often do presidents mention ex-military who were murdered after leaving the force? I can’t recall any. I’m sure if he had been mentioned the outrage would then be over him using the opportunity to push his political agenda. You people are pathetic and love to use any nonrational excuse to bash Obama while gleefully concealing your racist motivations. Thank goodness i don’t frequent these boards often, i’ve lost enough faith in humanity as it is.

Is anyone surprised that Zerobama would honor a drug addict over a patriot? I’m not.

We have a delusional fraud squatting in the White House!! He will minimalize and trivialize anything sacred in this country!!

Obama is a racist. If Kyle were black he would have at least mentioned his name.

Appeasement of the very low info.voters.

Mobama reaching out to his troops.

Great headline, too bad THIS IS NOT TRUE. Chris Christy ordered the flags to 1/2 mast for Houston because she was from his state. Did Rick Perry do that for Kyle? If you don’t believe it look it up. There is a web site for Presidential 1/2 mast declarations. Hopefully someone else in this thread has already said this. Too many follower responses to read.

Satanization, and no one’s paying any attention. SATANIZATION – LIE, DOUBLE CROSS, TRAUMA BOND VIA SHOCK AND AWE and RENDITION OF YOUR INTELLIGENCE.
America has guns, but it has no intelligence! Obama wins again. Americans are indeed stupid!

Why hasn’t this FRAUD been impeached I just don’t understand I keep writing my congressman and senators and nothing is done! He is a traitor to the Republic and needs to be treated as such! WRITE your congressman and senators it’s easy just find their webpages and that’s as easy. Maybe if enough of us keep hammering the politic’s with impeach obama emails they’ll actually do something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JB
HEY !! Speaking of low info voters………..Gov Chris Christie is the one who ordered flags of NJ flown at half staff for Ms Houston NOT the President! AND no doubt,Mr Kyle a hero, the flag code states flag is flown at half staff for active duty members of armed forces…………look it up High information people or just be lemmings.
marc
This is one gigantic lie. Obama had nothing to do with this. Blame your beloved GOPhers.
Chris Christie (Republican) ordered flags flown at half staff for Houston. Rick Perry (Republican) was asked to order flags flown at half staff for Kyle and refused to do so.

It was Gov Christie of New Jersey… get your facts right.. my god, does no one do fact checking anymore
http://womenofmetal.net/ Metal Ladies
This picture is a fraud… President Obama never made such an executive order, It was governor Christy of New Jersey who issued that order and it was only for the state of New Jersey. And all you sheep are believing this crap. What a bunch of carp. IDIOTS! http://www.blackfive.net/main/2012/02/flags-at-half-staff-for-whitney-houston.html
RIP Chris Kyle….
Pistachiofarmer
President Obama did not order that flags be flown at half mast upon Whitney Houston’s death. You are mistaken. Chris Christie, governor of Houston’s home state of New Jersey did. Flags were not flown at half mast at the White House. It’s important to note that Mississippi, the birth state of drug addicted Elvis Presley, also flew their flags at half mast upon his death, along with several other states, including Tennessee where Graceland is located. In addition, President Nixon suggested all Americans should fly their personal flags at half mast in honor of Presley. President Obama did mention Kris Kyle’s death at the Medal of Honor ceremony held on the day Kyle was laid to rest. He also contacted the Kyle family personally. Just keepin’ it fair and balanced….
Shoe
This is not true, by the way. Governor Christie ordered flags in Jersey to be flown at half staff for Whitney. Governor Perry in Texas opted NOT to fly them at half staff for Chris Kyle because he did not die in service. Obama did NOT order flags at half staff for either.
