A Vietnam Veteran Speaks Out

March 6, 2010

Adam Kokesh, candidate for the Republican nomination for the US House of Representatives from the Third District of New Mexico, is doing his best to deceive the electorate. He portrays himself as a libertarian conservative, but he is neither libertarian nor conservative (unless he reinvents himself again). Most egregiously, he is attempting to portray himself as a patriotic anti-war/anti-military veteran in a manner reminiscent of John Kerry and Vietnam Veterans against the War (VVAW), in which Kerry tarnished the valor of his brothers-in-arms in order to advance his political career.

As did VVAW, Kokesh's Iraq Veterans against the War (IVAW) holds that America is an imperialistic country, that the military is merely a tool of the government, and that our soldiers are little more than marauders and murderers who, in the words of John Kerry, behave ''in a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan.''

I first met Adam when he and a motley group of Code Pink, MoveOn.org, IVAW (Iraq Veterans against the War), and other ''representatives'' of radical anti-American organizations formed up in front of the Army recruiting station in Washington, DC. Their clear intent was to create a disturbance, but the presence of a few dozen Gathering of Eagles members caused them to reconsider their plans.

I approached Adam and struck up a conversation, during the course of which I learned that he considered himself to be a libertarian. I replied that I considered myself a libertarian, as well, and that perhaps we could agree to disagree on the specific issue of the Iraq war. He seemed amenable to that, but his group reconvened in front of the recruiting station a few weeks later and trashed the place. It was then that I realized that the Adam Kokeshes of the world cannot be relied upon to compromise.

The next time I encountered Adam was last summer at an economic conference in St. Louis. That was when I first learned that he was running for Congress. He presided over a "promote Kokesh" seminar that I attended. He spouted off a basic libertarian message without including any of his own biography, which is, to say the least, nasty. Significantly, he claimed to have been honorably discharged as a sergeant from the US Marine Corps. Both claims are false, as will be demonstrated below.

Adam Kokesh is, in my view, a traitor to his country, and certainly to the United States Marine Corps, in which he "served" as a reservist for several months in a civil affairs unit in Iraq. Upon returning to the States, he enrolled in Claremont McKenna College in California.

While at Clarement McKenna, a pistol was stolen from his car, and Adam dutifully reported the theft to the campus police, who asked him where the pistol came from. Adam said that it was a war souvenir from Iraq, and it was not long before the USMC brought charges against him for smuggling an illegal weapon into the US. His then-pending discharge as a sergeant was changed to that of a corporal.

Adam just didn't know when to let well-enough alone, because in 2007 he was involved in a street demonstration in DC in which several anti-war protesters were arrested. It seems that he was involved in a bit of street theater in which he led a "combat patrol," in uniform, to protest the Iraq War. This event was sufficient newsworthy as to cause the Marine Corps to investigate Adam's involvement in what was obviously an unpatriotic act.

It seems that when the Marine major assigned the investigation contacted Adam by e-mail, Adam replied with a "f__k yourself," and the Corps thereupon initiated proceedings that resulted in his having his theretofore-honorable discharge downgraded to a general discharge.

Adam then continued to drive nails into his political coffin, as evinced by his visit to the US Army Garrison in Ansbach, Germany. His actions there were, by any measure, seditious, if not downright treasonous. In his own words, Kokesh imparted the following message to our troops:

"We are here to reach out to active duty members of the United States military stationed in Germany and let them know what they can do to help stop the US occupation of Iraq. Soldiers need to know that when they decide to resist, they will have the support and thanks of the global moral majority. We are also here to support the German peace movement. As in the United States, protestors are often dismissed as ignorant and childish, but with the voices of veterans backing them up, they have the credibility they deserve. It is clear that real change will not come from your government or ours, but rather from the righteous voice of compassion."

"The people of Ansbach have chosen to stand up not only to the imperialism of the United States, but also their own country's history of complicity. The US military has long chosen its own tactical advantage over the consideration of the people in the communities that it affects and claims to protect. It is sad that it has taken so long for Germans to make this stand, but we support them in their opposition."

"Germany has long been complicit in America's aggression. There is no longer any valid premise for the vast American presence in this country. It is not for your security or benefit, but supposedly for the benefit of America, and it is not in the world's best interest. The lesson of World War II should not be to remain silent during the next war of aggression." [Adam Kokesh; May 13, 2007; US Army Garrison, Ansbach, Germany]

Adam Kokesh probably wishes that he had not been so open about his disloyalty, because he is now pretending to be a patriotic, libertarian-leaning, conservative Republican in his congressional campaign. Sorry, Adam; that just won't wash. You have shown your true colors, and America-loving patriots just won't let you get away with your masquerade.

Go ahead and renew your ties with the Code Pink/Winter Soldier/George Soros/IVAW crowd. Take off that suit and tie, and let your hair grow long in a John Kerry-lookalike manner. Be what you want to be, as long as it's not pretending to be an American patriot.

American Patriots Against Kokesh

Richard Newton, The Right Side of the Issues

There are those among us who would argue that we are in the midst of a second American revolution – a revolution to reject and discard conservative values and principles, our Constitution, and our freedoms. Those instigating the revolution, however, will not declare their full intentions until they are convinced that they have a virtual stranglehold on our country. To do otherwise, would be to awaken a sleeping giant.

And so, the time is now - for American conservatives and Tea Party patriots to awaken the giant. Yes, some successes are clearly visible, particularly in terms of recent election results and in the prospects for further election victories for conservatives in November. But mere voting will not suffice if we fail to address the complacency that allowed this cancerous revolution to grow in the first place. It exists not only in government, but more importantly, in our schools and our media. It is time to awaken America from its self-induced stupor of apathy. It is time for all freedom-loving Americans to pay attention to the world around them, to become better informed, and to take personal responsibility for maintaining our freedom.

We cannot afford to assume that good, honest people will guide our country as they have for the better part of 234 years. We cannot afford for people to turn off their listening to politics, whether it be for lack of understanding, lack of interest, or desire to avoid confrontation. We cannot afford to bypass voting in seemingly unimportant local and primary elections. We cannot afford a reliance upon ‘the other guy’ to serve in public roles or to be advocates for various issues. We cannot afford to blindly accept the biased drivel of liberal hacks in the media. And we cannot afford to allow the increasingly liberal influence in academia to destroy the learning and moral fiber of our children. We must understand what we believe in, take ownership for its manifestation and survival, and share information that furthers the success of that survival.

In writing frequently about the liberal hijacking of our present society, I am often puzzled by so many pundits who have tiptoed around the use of definable terms such as socialist, Marxist, communist, collectivist, etc. Even in the 2008 presidential primaries and general elections, the closest most candidates or pundits would get to defining Obama was the ‘s-word’. Is it some McCarthy-like phobia that prevents the application of an all-to-accurate label describing a left-winger’s ideology? We know that leftist political candidates shun the ‘liberal’ label – it’s a known negative connotation to the majority of Americans. More recently, many lefties such as Obama and Hillary have donned the ‘progressive’ label. And thanks to our friend, Glenn Beck, that will soon likely become a new curse for politicians.

But why has there been such a hesitancy use to the ‘communist’ and ‘Marxist’ labels? To their credit, Beck, Levin, and Rush flirt with both of these labels, but this video by Victoria Jackson leaves little doubt and is much more than a hoot – it’s a clarion call to all the sleepy-eyed, apathetic Americans who think the Obama/Pelosi/Reid triumvirate and all the socialist minions in Congress are a harmless, passing fad.

It’s also a wakeup call for all Democrats who let their party loyalty create such a blind spot that they can’t differentiate ‘Hopey/Changey’ slogans from Marxist ideology and who can’t recognize a communist when they’re spewing their propaganda right in front of them, lying through their teeth with every breath, and steadily, intentionally causing the collapse of our economy and freedoms.

Certainly, this video is not going to change minds on its own merit. One must also have been paying attention to the continual barrage of Obama’s Marxist messages/actions and his cadre of radical associates and influences. Consider the following:

• The manifestation of Obama’s collectivist doctrine of transformation in our schools. Glenn Beck’s March 5th episode brought Obama’s tactics into clear focus. A champion of freedom does not belittle the knowledge and influence of the parents nor subjugate their role in raising children to that of the state.
• His infamous SEIU address where he reaches into his oratorical bag of tricks for what Harry Reid would likely describe as his ‘ghetto dialect’ – and proceeds to offer a freedom-threatening, narcissistic message to his following of union goons on how he will overthrow this country.
• His pre-election proclamation that we are “five days away from fundamentally transforming America”. It was not a promise of fighting for freedom and opportunity – it was a threat of chains and control.
• His insistence to undertake unfathomable debt – debt that no reasonable person would ever mimic in their personal finances and debt to which only a person who is hell-bent on collapsing our economy would aspire.
• His insistence to urgently pass a massive ‘stimulus’ bill that to this date remains largely unspent and exists as a convenient slush fund for his pet projects and ‘negotiations’/bribes.
• His desire to reduce our nuclear defenses and to remove defensive shields in eastern Europe.
• His gracious, unapologetic acceptance of a book from avowed Marxist Hugo Chavez – a true patriotic leader would have simply said “No thank you.” and turned away.
• Apologizing for America’s successes, our Exceptionalism, and our foundation of Christianity.
• Lying to shun the use of a 51-vote majority – except when it’s convenient to pass healthcare legislation that the majority of the country opposes – to call it democracy in action, but conveniently forgetting that we are not just a democracy, but a democratic republic. He refuses to acknowledge the majority opposition in this country to his proposal to destroy healthcare and grow the government.
• His appointments of numerous communists and extreme leftists to his administration.
• His preference in school to associate with the Marxist professors.
• His mentoring by communist Frank Marshall Davis and his association with such societal deviates, radicals, and criminals such as William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Rashid Khalidi, and Tony Rezko.

True to his history, beliefs, and associations, Obama has left a trail of Marxist stains at every turn in his presidency. And to that minority of people who actually recognize and subscribe to the radical transformation that this president is attempting to impose upon us, be aware that those of us who cherish our country, our freedoms, and our Constitution are prepared to defend them with every ounce of energy and commitment that we can muster. But we must act with determination now. This is not a mere contest of ideologies nor of compatible belief systems that can survive through bipartisanship – rather, this is a battle for the survival and control of our nation. And make no mistake about it, we will defeat whosoever gets in the way – one way or another.

Adam Kokesh wants to be a US congressman next year. So today he is practicing being a conservative Republican. I say practicing because it was only a year ago or so that he wanted to be a communist.
Poor feller can't make up his mind. I reckon he's still in search of himself?

Saying Kokesh wanted to be a communist is a rather strong accusation, isn't it? It's warranted. I've told you in several recent posts about his involvement with the anti-war movement, that he marched with and led demonstrations by thousands of leftists, anarchists, communists and old worn out 60's hippies. I've told you that I have witnessed with my own hazel eyes the betrayal of Kokesh.

Do you think I'm just making this up?
Are you familiar with ANSWERCoalition?
Click over to DiscoverTheNetworks and read about that fine group of traitors known as ANSWER.
Here's a few excerpts:

Anti-war front group for the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party
...
ANSWER views the United States as a racist, imperialist, sexist, homophobic nation and the world's chief violator of human rights -- guilty of unspeakable atrocities, past and present, foreign and domestic.
...
ANSWER supports an immigration policy that calls for open borders as well as amnesty and full civil rights for illegal aliens residing in the United States.
...
ANSWER opposes the U.S. military's detention center at the Guantanamo Bay naval base in Cuba.

Make notes of all the Marxist, socialist and communist organizations that share board members with ANSWER.

Then make note of this:

That's Adam Kokesh making protest signs in the ANSWER workshop in preparation for the antiwar protest I told you about here.

And don't forget that I also told you that Kokesh enjoys the endorsement of Ron Paul and has in turn endorsed N.C. Congressional candidate B.J. Lawson.

I wouldn't let a commie set foot in my yard, much less march with them, much less endorse one for congress, much less accept endorsement from one.

An Open Letter to the Republican Party
Regarding Adam Kokesh

We are writing to you, to express our grave concerns about Adam Kokesh, who is aspiring to become the Republican nominee for US Congress from New Mexico’s 3rd district. Mr. Kokesh has an extensive and well-documented history of affiliations with radical leftist groups. In concert with these groups he has engaged in numerous anti-America and anti-military demonstrations and protests. Moreover, Mr. Kokesh does not appear to have any personal qualifications that would recommend him for serious consideration as a candidate for the Republican Party. He has a significant history suggestive of poor character and judgment, and he has notable incidents of direct activism against Republican office holders.

Affiliations with radical leftist groups

Mr. Kokesh joined the Iraq Veterans Against War (IVAW) in February 2007, at which time he was 25 years old. The IVAW was formed by the Vietnam Veterans Against War (VVAW), the now infamous group, formed by John Kerry in 1970, and responsible for the fraudulent maligning of our Vietnam veterans at the Winter Soldier Conference in 1971. It will be recalled that John Kerry now stands exposed as having repeated false accusations from that conference, during Congressional testimony in 1971. Similar to the VVAW, the IVAW is a virulently anti-military, anti-America group. It holds the view that our country is an imperialistic and expansionistic “One World Order” government, and that our military is but a tool of this government. Further, they believe that our soldiers are little more than marauders and murderers who, in the words of John Kerry, behave “in a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan”.

Mr. Kokesh was active in the IVAW from 2007 to 2009, at which time he announced his candidacy for Republican Congressman from New Mexico. There are no indications that he has revoked his affiliations with the IVAW. As an active member of the IVAW, Mr. Kokesh was involved in numerous anti-military, and by explicit extension, anti-Bush/Republican activities and actions. While executing these actions, Mr. Kokesh knowingly and gladly, made common cause with a wide array of other well-known, radical anti-America and communist groups. The list of these other groups includes, but is by no means limited to, the following:

SDS
Code Pink
A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition
United for Justice and Peace
Communist Party of America
Muslim Brotherhood
Black Panthers

In cooperation with the above-named groups and the IVAW, Mr. Kokesh: participated in multiple anti-war demonstrations in Washington DC, and other cities throughout the country; organized and incited violent demonstrations at military recruiting stations; participated in an initiative to encourage active duty soldiers to desert their military post; organized and participated in a Winter Soldier Conference 2, an effort designed to malign and undercut the moral of our soldiers who were fighting and dying on the battlefield. Even a most cursory search of the Internet will yield a plethora of documents attesting to the veracity of these assertions.

Character Issues
Mr. Kokesh’s personal accomplishments and achievements appear to be limited to his having served in the Marine Corps from 1999 until 2006, and his work as a political activist with the IVAW, from 2007 until 2009. His MC service was basically unremarkable, in terms of citations, medals, and commendations, and it was ultimately marked by a demotion in his discharge rank from Sergeant to Corporal, and a downgrading of his discharge status from honorable to general. Mr. Kokesh’s tenure with the IVAW has been noted above and need not be repeated here.

There are no indications that Mr. Kokesh has ever maintained any private sector employment, and unless otherwise proven, it might be assumed that his ‘work’ with the IVAW was financed through contributions to that organization, finances that often originated in leftist organizations such as MoveOn.org.

Other than an undergraduate degree in Psychology, there are no indications that Mr. Kokesh has achieved any academic standing that might, given his young age and his otherwise lack of general accomplishments, recommend him for serious consideration for Congress.

There are numbers of incidents in Mr. Kokesh’s personal life that suggest that he employs poor judgment. Examples of this include the following: he smuggled a gun home from Iraq, and then was apprehended when he bought it onto a college campus; he has incited protestors to engage in violent actions against military recruiting stations; and, he incited unrest on a college campus by hanging racist poster around the campus, and signing the posters as being from a member of the college’s conservative Republican organization.

Finally, there is no documented evidence that Mr. Kokesh has been supportive of the Republican Party prior to his campaign announcement in 2009. Yet, there are notable prior incidents in which he has joined with radical leftists in protesting Republican office holders. These include: a high-profile media mocking of Alberto Gonzales’s testimony to Congress regarding the dismissal of the U.S. attorney’s; interrupting John McCain’s acceptance speech at the 2008 Republican National convention; and; participating in a radical left anti-war march on the Bush home in Kennebunkport, Maine.

Given the above, it is our position that Mr. Kokesh is in no way qualified to represent the Republican Party in Congress. In fact, if his history is any indicator of his future performance, it is most likely that he will behave in a manner that is antithetical to the positions and values of the Republican Party. In our view, a Kokesh candidacy will at best, precipitate much conflict within the Republican Party, and, at worst, invite derision from outside of the party.

Like you, we are interested in maintaining the integrity of the Republican Party. We understand that this is a time when the party leadership is striving to reconcile disparate ideas within the party, and to clarify its unified voice. A Kokesh candidacy would be completely at odds with those strivings and ideals.

We are urging the Republican Party to withhold any endorsement of a ‘Kokesh for Congress’ candidacy. We look forward to hearing from you.

This one has been circulating the email networks for a while, and for good reason.

Michael Volpe, writing for BigGovernment has spent a couple of years scraping the dirt from a story in Pennsylvania. This story involves a chain of events that lead to North Carolinians in dire need of a new congressman. North Carolina needs to be One Miller Lite.

Rep. Brad Miller and Dr. Anna Chacko: The Politicalization of Government Health Care

Late in the afternoon of December 4th of 2006, laboratory staff of the Veterans Administration Pittsburgh Health Services (VAPHS) based on an order from Dr. Mona Melhem, the associate chief of clinical services, a few minutes earlier – in less than three hours destroying a unique collection of legionella and other isolates that had been collected by two prominent infectious disease researchers over their nearly three decades of research.

What, one might ask, does an investigation into a destroyed strand of legionella have to do with the firing of the chief of radiology at a hospital nearly two years later? In reality, the two probably have little do with each other, except in the mind of Congressman Brad Miller. Because Miller made a connection, the events of one lead directly to the events of the other.

Click the link, and read the whole thing. If you're in North Carolina, that's just one more reason to start working on ridding our state of Brad Miller.

Congressman David Price (D-NC) did a town hall meeting, of sorts, at the Cultural Center of Holly Springs. I didn't make the trip, (had to work, some of us still think we should pay our own mortgage) but the Tea Party did.

Among the T-baggers were NCFreedom members and Randy Dye of Randy's Right Blog. Randy made the video linked here, so we can all share and enjoy the embarrassment of a pure liberal congressman being questioned up close and personal.

I note that when asked about constitutional authority to pass Health Care, Price fell back on the Commerce clause and then the insinuation of precedent based on the unconstitutionality of social security. Both of those arguments are lame.

Does Price really believe that one constitutional violation sets precedent for more? That's what he's saying. And that is wrong. Price is wrong.

Let's get Frank Roche's take on that, shall we?

I also note that there were no Price supporters present, or if there were they kept quiet and stayed out of range.

ACORN Filmmakers Giles, O’Keefe Sued in Philadelphia Federal Court

Hannah Giles and James O’Keefe III, the independent filmmakers behind the series of videos which swept the nation in 2009 and exposed internal corruption and illegality within ACORN Housing Corporation, were sued today in federal court in Philadelphia by an ACORN employee featured in one of the pair’s films.

Read the entire linked article.
Giles and O'Keefe did what many have tried to do for over a decade: Expose the corruption of the ACORN organization to the general public. ACORN has access to billions of dollars of liberal money, not to mention a few billion of YOUR money.

Now it's our turn to strike a few blows.
