ANDY MARTIN: Honolulu conference to study Obama’s Muslim “roots”

(HONOLULU, HI) Obama author and honorary Hawaiian “Ali’i nui” Andy Martin will convene his Third National Conference On Barack Obama’s Missing Birth Certificate, College Records and Muslim religion in Honolulu beginning November 9th. Martin will hold a New York City news conference September 30th to announce the Honolulu convention. Martin says the American people increasingly disbelieve Obama’s profession of Christianity. Martin has been credited by some in the alternative media with swaying public opinion to take a more critical look at Obama’s religious roots as well as triggering growing concerns about Islam in America. Almost one hundred million Americans now believe and follow Andy Martin’s questions about Barack Obama’s family origins. Martin is known as the “King of the Birthers” because of his relentless efforts to seek release of Obama’s original, typewritten birth certificate.

ANDY MARTIN SAYS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE RIGHT TO BELIEVE BARACK OBAMA IS A MUSLIM

MARTIN SAYS OBAMA’S LATEST PROFESSION OF CHRISTIANITY IS A HOLLOW ONE

ANDY MARTIN, AMERICAN’S MOST INFLUENTIAL OPINION WRITER AND BARACK OBAMA’S INTERNET OPPONENT FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS, PLANS A BLOCKBUSTER CONFERENCE IN HONOLULU


(NEW YORK)(September 29, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, will hold a New York City news conference Thursday, September 30th to announce his Third National Conference on Barack Obama’s Missing Birth Certificate, College Records and Muslim religion. Martin’s new national conference will be held in Honolulu.

“Yesterday (September 28th) Barack was at it again, claiming to be ‘Christian,’” Martin says:

“Well, the American people don’t believe him. They believe me.

“My original 2004 column on Obama’s Muslim religion may have become the single most influential piece of opinion journalism in print, broadcast or internet media. One writer credits me with being one of America’s most influential political analysts and the man who became the harbinger of America’s changing attitudes towards Islam:

http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/297321

“Why have I been so right over the past six years, and why has Obama been so wrong? [This release is Part One of a Two Part analysis (Part Two will come Friday, October 1st after our September 30th news conference)] I have been scrupulously honest in searching for the truth and seeking to find the facts about Obama’s family history. It has not been an easy journey.

“Obama refuses to release his original 1961 typewritten Hawai’i birth certificate. Why? Why are Hawai’i officials hiding this historic document? Why is there no plaque commemorating the ‘birthplace’ of Barack Obama in Hawai’i? Where was he born? Who was the doctor? All missing.

“Last year I predicted Obama would suffer because of his machinations, and he is.

“My columns and my book and movie have led almost 100 million Americans to question Obama’s origins. Two years into his presidency doubts are growing, not slowing, as I predicted in 2009.

“Yesterday Obama was at it again, saying he is a Christian. Well, to paraphrase the immortal phrase of the late Senator Lloyd Bentsen, ‘President Obama, I know Christians, and you’re no Christian.

“Let’s analyze what Obama said on Tuesday.

“First, Obama obviously felt the need to have the phony question about his religion planted at a political meeting. His claim that the question was spontaneous is nonsense. Obama poll tests everything in advance. There is no spontaneity to anything he does. Everyone who was in the New Mexico back yard was vetted by the secret Service and they were screened in advance. The American people are no longer being fooled by Obama’s bogus photo ops.

“Second, Obama claimed he came to Christianity ‘later in life.’ When will he provide a specific date when he was baptized?

“In my own denomination, the Episcopal Church, you can only become a Christian through Holy Baptism:

www.stthomaswhitemarsh.org

[Look under “To become an Episcopalian”]

“So when Obama was baptized? Is there a baptismal book with his name in it? Is there a certificate? To date he has produced nothing to verify his conversion to Christianity.

“I also have a great deal of experience with conversions to Christianity. In the Episcopal Church we get converts from other Christian denominations as well as occasional converts from other religions such as Judaism. So I know ‘converts.’ Obama exhibits none of the usual attitudes of a convert.

“People who convert to a religion pay special attention to theology and preaching. Obama claims he ‘converted,’ and then ignored the sermons at Trinity United for the next twenty years. Convert? No.

“Obama gave his daughters Muslim first names after ‘converting’ to Christianity. Convert? No.

“Christians universally celebrate Christmas; I suspect Michelle Robinson Obama’s family celebrated Christmas. The Obamas do not celebrate Christmas. Ironically, even the most loosely attached Christians flood churches at Christmas and Easter; Obama does not. Convert? No.

“For me, my faith is my life. I seriously doubt that anyone would make that statement about Mr. Obama.

“The bottom line: Barack Obama is not a Christian. He is still a Muslim as we will discuss further on Friday.

“Obama’s ‘religion’ became a major public issue three years ago. Since then, the more Obama has ‘explained’ who he is and what he believes, the less the American people believe him. That is an extraordinary record of retrogression by the Great Speechifyer.

“My writing in 2004 inadvertently created a political movement that now approaches one hundred million Americans who doubt who and what Barack Obama is. It is not an exaggeration to say my 2004 remarks became the most powerful and influential opinion column in American history. People believe me because they know that despite my political differences with Obama I am completely honest and impartial when dealing with Obama’s personal life. I just search for the truth and am constantly trying to find the facts.

“That is why our latest and largest national conference on Barack Obama will take place in Honolulu beginning on November 9th. To continue to find the facts and to search for the truth about Obama.

“We'll have new sponsors and offer new opportunities to examine Obama’s Hawai’i ‘roots.’ Obama’s staffers will be paying close attention to our meeting. His thugs are always on our tail. Be there,” Martin says.

Martin plans to post registration details for his Honolulu conference after his Manhattan news conference Thursday. To receive email updates on the Conference please send a request to: contact@StopObamaCoalition.com

ANDY MARTIN on John McCain’s hypocrisy about homosexuality

Andy Martin asks: How can John McCain block a vote on the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t tell,” and then come to Illinois to campaign for “Closeted Congressman” Mark Kirk? Kirk is a homosexual who is also serving in the Navy Reserve and has disgraced the service with the biggest pack of lies in Navy history. Why is McCain supporting a charlatan like Kirk? At long last, has McCain no shame about his hypocrisy?

BLOG FOR THE 2010 CAMPAIGN

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN ASKS “DOES JOHN MCCAIN PRACTICE “DON’T’ ASK, DON’T TELL” WHEN HE GETS QUESTIONS ABOUT MARK KIRK’S HOMOSEXUALITY?

MARTIN SAYS THAT IF MCCAIN REALLY BELIEVES WHAT HE SAYS, HE SHOULD “CUT KIRK LOOSE;” MCCAIN SHOULD STOP BEING A HYPOCRITICAL, TWO-FACED POLITICIAN ON HOMOSEXUAL ISSUES

ANDY LINKS TO THE EXPLOSIVE MARK KIRK “HOMOSEXUAL RUMOR” TAPE

(NEW YORK)(September 22, 2010) I haven’t expressed an opinion on the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t tell,” and today is not the day I am going to do so. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe. Maybe.

Rather, today I am focused on the hypocrisy of Senator John McCain. McCain seeks to exclude gays from the military and then comes to Illinois to campaign for homosexual Congressman Mark Kirk. Whether you oppose or support the gay agenda, anyone and everyone can be sickened by hypocritical politicians such as Senator John McCain.

Last December 28th I started something of a national firestorm when I disclosed to the public that there were “rumors” that Congressman Mark Kirk was gay:

http://www.andyforussenator.com/andys_ads.htm

Lake County Republican Ray True suggested that Kirk was surrounded by a Praetorian Guard-like posse of homosexuals. You can still listen to the tape of the extraordinary program that formed the basis for my campaign advertising [Radio Archive, November 1 2009, Segment Two]:

http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=2165

In June, respected homosexual activist Mike Rogers confirmed my allegations and stated unequivocally that Kirk was a homosexual:

http://blog.blogactive.com/2010/06/truth-or-consequences.html

Later, Kirk’s former wife made ambiguous remarks about her former husband’s sexuality. So Jack Roeser was right, and my campaign commercials were based on solid research. Kirk was a proven liar.

Personally, I don’t care what people do in the privacy of their own home. But I passionately believe that public officials should be prepared to make their private lives public when public votes could be influenced by private lives. It is two-faced for public officials to seek publicity from privacy when it serves their political interests, and then seek “privacy please” when a politician is trying to cover his or her tracks.

But Kirk’s lies about his sexuality were only a minor precursor to the disclosure of Kirk’s myriad lies about his military service. Now we know that in addition to being the “Closeted Congressman,” Mark Kirk is the biggest liar in U.S. Navy history. Kirk has lied about every aspect of his military career.

Kirk claimed to have won medals that don’t exist. Kirk lied when he said he had “fought” in wars where he never served. Kirk lied when he said he came under fire in Afghanistan. Kirk lied when he said he came under fire in Iraq. Kirk lied about commanding the War Room in the Pentagon.

How can John McCain proclaim his love of the military service and then back someone such as Kirk who has disgraced the Navy uniform by relentless lying about his imaginary accomplishments?

McCain claims he is coming back to Illinois to support Kirk. Do reports about Kirk’s Navy lies have no effect on McCain? Is McCain senile or just suspending his common sense for political profit when it comes to Mark Kirk?

Politicians wonder why we hate them. John McCain’s Mark Kirk hypocrisy is a classic example of why Congress is held in contempt by the American people.

Tea, anyone?

ANDY MARTIN: I’m overjoyed by the large protests that greeted Glenn Beck in Illinois

Illinois political reformer Andy Martin launched protests against Glenn Beck’s coming to Illinois as part of an event sponsored by corrupt Illinois Republicans. Martin protested in front of the News Corporation headquarters building in midtown Manhattan where Fox News is located. Saturday night hundreds of demonstrators greeted Beck when he appeared to promote the Illinois Republican Party. Martin is overjoyed by the turnout, which he views as a mandate to continue fighting Illinois’ rigged election laws. Martin is opposing Mark Kirk for the U. S. Senate.

ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SUNDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO

Andy Martin is "overjoyed and overwhelmed" by the large opposition to the corrupt Illinois Republican Party's charade at Right Nation 2010 Saturday night

Martin triggered protests by his warning to Glenn Beck to "stay away" and avoid links to Pat Brady and the other crooks that control Mark Kirk's Illinois Republican Party

Martin says Illinois Republicans and conservatives are frustrated and angry at the fraudulent election choice they have been given in the "Closeted Mr. Kirk"

(CHICAGO)(September 19, 2010, 2010) Illinois Reform Party U. S. senate candidate Andy Martin, who is fighting to stay on the ballot and is planning to run as a write-in candidate against Mark Kirk, will hold a Sunday news conference to express his jubilation at the vociferous opposition which greeted Glenn Beck Saturday night. Beck's appearance was delayed because of the protests. Martin is normally a Republican, and he is supporting the Republican Party slate with the exception of the "closeted" Mark Kirk.

"When I started the ball rolling to organize a protest against Illinois Republican crooks trying to raise money by using Glenn Beck, I had no idea hundreds of people would respond," Martin will state. "Many of the protesters were liberals, but that's all right. As an Episcopalian myself I was delighted to see an Episcopal priest on the front lines. Liberals and conservatives are angry and fed up with our rigged Illinois election system.

"2010 Candidates were required to file for office a year ago. The world has changed greatly in the last year, but Illinois voters are still locked in with and stuck with candidates who were determined a year ago. This is not democracy. Both Democrats and Republicans need to raise their voices in protest.

"We need an electoral process in Illinois where voters get to vote in warm weather, not in the dead of winter. We need to have candidates who are chosen closer to the general election, not candidates who are required to file for office a year in advance of the general election.

"Chicago media lied during the primary election and ignored overwhelming evidence of military fraud by Mark Kirk. Voters were fooled and rigged again.

"We need to launch a bipartisan crusade. I am not afraid to sit down and talk with liberals any more than I am afraid to sit down with my conservative brethren. If we are going to solve the problems of this nation, we need to come together. For example, we need to rebuild our manufacturing capacity; German manufacturing has shown the way to prosperity and economic stability in this regard. Manufacturing creates good jobs at good wages. Instead of trying to divide a shrinking pie, we need to rebuild an expanding economy where everyone has a fair opportunity to share in the fruits of our financial success.

"I may be a conservative, but I am a conservative who cares about the poor, and not just about the affluent. There but for the Grace of God go I. You can't be a real Christian without manifesting love for those in need.

"Pat Brady is paying lawyers to keep me off the ballot. Why? He knows Republicans want to vote for me, not the slimy pipsqueak Mark Kirk. Kirk lied about his teaching career, he lied about his role in the cabal that sabotaged the Republican agenda, he lied about his military service, he lies about everything. The man's entire life is a lie. He is a disgrace to every and any Republican who votes for him.

"There were many honest conservatives who turned out Saturday night at Right Nation 2010, and I respect and admire them. But they are being used and abused by Illinois' political shysters such as Pat Brady and Mark Kirk.

"Andrew Breitbart was way off base when he taunted the sidewalk protesters. Breitbart had no idea he was being used as a stooge by Illinois Republicans to legitimize their corrupt 'Combine' operations.

"I stand with the people of Illinois, and Friday I stood before the 'Tower of Power' in Manhattan at News Corporation headquarters and warned Glenn Beck he would be met with protests if he came to Illinois to act as a cover for corruption. He's better than that. And he was met with opposition. Saturday night, the People of Illinois stood with me," Martin will state.

Martin has a Monday morning hearing in Circuit Court seeking to reverse the decision of the Machine-dominatedState Elections Board. Martin has filed to run as a write-in if he is kept off the ballot. He joins U. S. Senator Lisa Murkowski in that regard.

ANDY MARTIN: Barack Obama “caves” on Consumer Protection Agency

Illinois consumer protection activist Andy Martin says Obama is surrendering to Congress before Republicans even win. Obama has betrayed Elizabeth Warren because he is afraid to formally nominate her to head the new consumer protection agency within the Federal Reserve Board. Martin supports the agency and says that ordinary Americans need someone to stand up for them and against Wall Street bloodsuckers. It ain’t gonna be ‘Bama.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN RIDICULES BARRY OBAMA’S SURRENDER TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BEFORE REPUBLICANS EVEN WIN CONGRESS

MARTIN SAYS DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE TERRIFIED OF “TWO MORE YEARS” WITH BARRY-O

ANDY SAYS MARK KIRK IS A VALET AND STOOGE FOR WALL STREET BLOODSUCKERS

(NEW YORK)(September 17, 2010) Almost four (4) years ago I assembled a team of experts to prepare a psychological profile of then-Senator Barack Obama. I published my psychological profile of Obama during our “Obama Week” in February, 2007. The profile became a part of my bestselling book, “Obama: The Man Behind The Mask.” Buy the book and read it. You’ll be scared. This man is now “commander” in-chief. Or something like that.

We predicted Obama had a brittle personality and that if he was placed under pressure he would collapse. He sure is.

He’s even afraid to formally nominate Elizabeth Warren to head the new consumer protection agency.

I happen to differ with Wall Street bloodsuckers and Republican Party bloodsuckers who take cash to oppose basic consumer protections. I think the new consumer protection agency located within the Federal Reserve Board is a great idea.

If this new agency had been in existence before 2008, our economy would not have crashed. Consumers deserve more protection from government. Wall Street leeches and bankers have lawyers and lobbyists to protect them. Ordinary people have no one. Any time you order a credit card, buy a car or own a home you get endless paperwork that no one (except a good lawyer) can understand.

I was Illinois’ first consumer advocate, way back in 1970 (see www.AndyMartin.com) and I have always stood for protecting the ordinary citizen from the Gordon Gekkos of this world. I tried the first consumer protection lawsuit at the Federal Reserve Board. In 1973.

Mark Kirk is a valet, a servant really, of Wall Street and the moneyed bosses that have orchestrated and controlled and manipulated and promoted Kirk’s career. Kirk is no Gekko; Kirk is merely a Gekko doolie. Kirk took a cool million in campaign cash from his Wall Street bosses. Whose side do you think the Kirkster is on?

But back to Obama. Instead of fighting for what he believes is right, and formally nominating Professor Warren for senate confirmation to head her new agency, Obama punted and merely named her an "adviser.” He was afraid of a confirmation fight. The Republicans have not even won the election yet and already Obama is surrendering! Now you know why foreign leaders have contempt for Obama.

How long before Obama bows down to Speaker John Boehner the way Barry bowed to the Saudi king and the Japanese emperor? Senator Mitch McConnell is also a bow-down-to-me leader-in-waiting.

If I was a Democrat I would be incontinent (to put it politely) right now. My pants would feel very heavy. Luckily I’m conservative Republican.

Democrats are being led by a coward. Now you know why ContrarianCommentary.com’s analysis is better than the mainstream media’s, and why we project that a lot of Republicans are going to make it to Washington that Washington is not too happy to see. We call ‘em as we see ‘em. I may be a Republican but I’m a truth-telling Republican, not a stooge for special interests the way Kirk is.

I just hope these new legislators don’t betray the people who sent them. Republicans have a history of doing that. Look at how they frittered away the fruits of 1994.

At the end of the day, we need balance in government. We do not need little Wall Street stooges such as Mark Kirk in the senate, ready to vacuum up campaign cash and sell out the working families of Illinois. We need someone that stands for prosperity, economic opportunity and sensible consumer protections as I do. Someone who stands up for the little folks and is not always taking campaign cash from the Pritzkers.

Maybe Obama should nominate me to lead the new consumer protection agency. I’m always ready to fight for the ordinary citizen. Obama is not.

But then, Barry Obama is the president from Goldman Sachs. He took a cool million in campaign cash from the Goldman Sachs pirates who profit while Americans suffer. Bend over, America.

You can’t really trust either party. You can only trust men and women of integrity who offer themselves for public service. And they are in short supply.

ANDY MARTIN DRAWS ON HIS WAR EXPERIENCES WAR TO DEBUNK THE BELIEF THAT ANY HUMAN LIFE IS “CHEAP”

MARTIN SAYS THAT SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL, AND ISRAELIS THEMSELVES, SADLY ACT AS THOUGH PALESTINIAN LIFE IS CHEAP; ISRAELIS ARE BECOMING VICTIMS OF THEIR OWN ATROCITIES

(NEW YORK)(September 17, 2010) I grew up in the 1950’s. In those years Americans did not respect Asia. We spoke about “hordes” of Chinese, depersonalizing people for political reasons. Why would we compare Chinese to a “horde” of locusts? It’s easier to train people to kill locusts than to convince them to kill fellow human beings.

Perhaps the most damning libel of that era was that to “Chinese” or to Asians in general, “life is cheap.”

I thought we had grown out of such racist pretensions. No one today would seriously believe or publicly state that “To Chinese [or Asians] life is cheap.” The remarks would be unthinkable. So how could the publisher of the New Republic, Martin Peretz, make the claim that “But frankly, Muslim life is cheap…”

and wait almost ten days to apologize:

http://www.tnr.com/blog/the-spine/77607/martin-peretz-apology


Peretz’s remarks have created a controversy:

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/17/us/17harvard.html?ref=us

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/12/opinion/12kristof.html

I am in the process of writing some very critical remarks about the Islamic world, about the Ground Zero mosque, and about the aftermath of what happened recently in Gainesville, Florida and the Muslim reaction around the world.

I believe we are entitled to make critical comments about religion, especially when those remarks bear some relationship to political or legal matters encompassed in religious activity. Religious beliefs or actions should no more be immune to criticism and controversy than any other beliefs. On this I clearly disagree with Mohammedans, who seek to ascribe talismanic significance to documents and pieces of paper as “sacred.”

But “Muslim life is cheap?” To make such a remark, or even to contemplate such thoughts, is hideous. Today we are engaged in a growing nostalgia about President George Bush and his actions after 9/11. Bush clearly delineated “Islam is not the enemy.” Bush, of course, did the right thing. [One of my upcoming columns will be titled “Maybe Islam is the enemy” so stay tuned for that one. But I challenge beliefs, not the sanctity of human life in the Muslim world.]

Two moments in my young life changed me forever. I went to Viet-Nam without having thought much about the “life is cheap” ideology of the 1950’s. No one in my home had ever suggested that any life was cheap and I was raised to believe the opposite. At the age of ten I was studying the Holocaust, not baseball’s box scores. In Viet-Nam, life changed for me. The images are seared in my memory.

I was on the flight line at Dong Ha late one afternoon. It was a dreary day, overcast, and I was waiting for a hop to somewhere. There was a Vietnamese widow sitting on the casket of her dead ARVN (Vietnamese) soldier. Her wailing penetrated my soul.

I realized that life was not cheap for the grieving lady. Politics and wars apart, life is never cheap for any human being. I was so deeply touched that I was paralyzed and unable to even take a photo of the scene. But the image has remained with me and in me since that day. The casket, the widow and I flew together, where I do not remember.

My epiphany was repeated a few days later. I jumped out of a helicopter into a rice paddy in the U Minh Forest, into a Viet Cong stronghold where we were welcomed by machine gun fire. Again, such incidents are hard to forget. But what left the deepest impression that day was raiding a VC village where we genuinely surprised the “VC.” The coffee was still warm and I saw how the “VC” were living. There were baby carriages, and personal items strewn about as people fled in the moment.

For many decades I carried a wallet I retrieved that day, to remind me of what came to me in the Forest and what I have remembered every day of my life since then: “The enemy is always human.”

I don’t want to rile up by Jewish friends or readers, but here are some thoughts that may rile. Mr. Peretz is a strong supporter of Israel. I happen to love Israelis and I certainly respect their grieving for the Holocaust.

I went to a Jewish funeral in Boynton Beach, Florida earlier this month for the wonderful mother of a close friend in West Palm Beach. I was early for the funeral and wandered through the cemetery. I was reminded again by the inscriptions in the Jewish cemetery of the horrors that have been inflicted on innocent people based on anti-Semitism.

But I have also seen Israelis and pro-Israel supporters in the United States dehumanize Palestinians. A particularly outrageous lie was Golda Meir’s: she denied that Palestinians even existed. All the easier to kill them and occupy their land. Through the decades Israelis have treated Palestinians as sub-humans. I have always known that eventually the true victims of Israel’s Holocaust against the Palestinians, beginning in 1948 and continuing to this date, would be the Israelis themselves and their supporters. That is why I pray the current peace negotiations will succeed, although I am very skeptical they will.

Mr. Peretz’s attempts to delegitimize the entire Muslim world should cause him, and every supporter of Israel, to ponder the question of why peace never comes while Palestinian lands are expropriated and Palestinian wells are reserved for Israeli use. While he has apologized, and we should accept his apology, his original remarks were an insight into Peretz' soul. Perhaps Peretz’ support for Israelis has led him to dehumanize and demonize not only their Palestinian adversaries but all Muslims in general.

When babies are left to die at Israeli checkpoints, when women are clubbed, when children are bombed with white phosphorous, when prisoners are tortured, every Israeli dies a little death as such practices are tolerated and passed on to the next generation through compulsory military service. Ask not for whom the bell tolls, O Israel, it tolls for thee.

Ultimately, whatever our political beliefs, “our enemies are always human.” Life is never cheap as I learned on the flight line at Dong Ha and with an unexpected revelation in the U Minh Forest. I am delighted Mr. Peretz has apologized, and I hope he will ponder my broader thoughts on the issue.

As for my Muslim friends, they can expect my criticism in the next few days. I love them equally with my Israeli friends. But I will be as unsparing of my criticism for Muslims and Muslim-majority nations as I am with Israelis. I will never believe, however, that “life is cheap” for either side or any side in the Middle East or anywhere else in this life. “The enemy is always human.”

I am a Christian of the twenty-first century, for whom life is never cheap.

ANDY MARTIN: Is Muslim life “cheap?”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN DRAWS ON HIS WAR EXPERIENCES WAR TO DEBUNK THE BELIEF THAT ANY HUMAN LIFE IS “CHEAP”

MARTIN SAYS THAT SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL, AND ISRAELIS THEMSELVES, SADLY ACT AS THOUGH PALESTINIAN LIFE IS CHEAP; ISRAELIS ARE BECOMING VICTIMS OF THEIR OWN ATROCITIES

(NEW YORK)(September 17, 2010) I grew up in the 1950’s. In those years Americans did not respect Asia. We spoke about “hordes” of Chinese, depersonalizing people for political reasons. Why would we compare Chinese to a “horde” of locusts? It’s easier to train people to kill locusts than to convince them to kill fellow human beings.

Perhaps the most damning libel of that era was that to “Chinese” or to Asians in general, “life is cheap.”

I thought we had grown out of such racist pretensions. No one today would seriously believe or publicly state that “To Chinese [or Asians] life is cheap.” The remarks would be unthinkable. So how could the publisher of the New Republic, Martin Peretz, make the claim that “But frankly, Muslim life is cheap…”

americans-really-it-sadly-w

and wait almost ten days to apologize:

http://www.tnr.com/blog/the-spine/77607/martin-peretz-apology


Peretz’s remarks have created a controversy:

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/17/us/17harvard.html?ref=us

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/12/opinion/12kristof.html

I am in the process of writing some very critical remarks about the Islamic world, about the Ground Zero mosque, and about the aftermath of what happened recently in Gainesville, Florida and the Muslim reaction around the world.

I believe we are entitled to make critical comments about religion, especially when those remarks bear some relationship to political or legal matters encompassed in religious activity. Religious beliefs or actions should no more be immune to criticism and controversy than any other beliefs. On this I clearly disagree with Mohammedans, who seek to ascribe talismanic significance to documents and pieces of paper as “sacred.”

But “Muslim life is cheap?” To make such a remark, or even to contemplate such thoughts, is hideous. Today we are engaged in a growing nostalgia about President George Bush and his actions after 9/11. Bush clearly delineated “Islam is not the enemy.” Bush, of course, did the right thing. [One of my upcoming columns will be titled “Maybe Islam is the enemy” so stay tuned for that one. But I challenge beliefs, not the sanctity of human life in the Muslim world.]

Two moments in my young life changed me forever. I went to Viet-Nam without having thought much about the “life is cheap” ideology of the 1950’s. No one in my home had ever suggested that any life was cheap and I was raised to believe the opposite. At the age of ten I was studying the Holocaust, not baseball’s box scores. In Viet-Nam, life changed for me. The images are seared in my memory.

I was on the flight line at Dong Ha late one afternoon. It was a dreary day, overcast, and I was waiting for a hop to somewhere. There was a Vietnamese widow sitting on the casket of her dead ARVN (Vietnamese) soldier. Her wailing penetrated my soul.

I realized that life was not cheap for the grieving lady. Politics and wars apart, life is never cheap for any human being. I was so deeply touched that I was paralyzed and unable to even take a photo of the scene. But the image has remained with me and in me since that day. The casket, the widow and I flew together, where I do not remember.

My epiphany was repeated a few days later. I jumped out of a helicopter into a rice paddy in the U Minh Forest, into a Viet Cong stronghold where we were welcomed by machine gun fire. Again, such incidents are hard to forget. But what left the deepest impression that day was raiding a VC village where we genuinely surprised the “VC.” The coffee was still warm and I saw how the “VC” were living. There were baby carriages, and personal items strewn about as people fled in the moment.

For many decades I carried a wallet I retrieved that day, to remind me of what came to me in the Forest and what I have remembered every day of my life since then: “The enemy is always human.”

Re: In the Matter of: Heffernan, et al. 2010-COEL-0009


Dear Judge Bertucci:

I received today by fax (emailed fax) an appearance and page-numbered record from Assistant Attorney General Thomas Ioppolo. Mr. Ioppolo’s certificate of service appears to confirm he is delivering a hard copy to me. I am unable to print out a 75-page fax.

If the Court wishes, I can prepare a motion for summary judgment to present on September 20th, since time is of the essence. I do not see that we have any disputed facts in the matter pending before Your Honor, although we obviously dispute the applicable U. S. Constitutional issues as well as the inferences to be drawn from the undisputed facts.

My appeal is narrowly based on the admitted lack of statutory service by the State Board of Elections though I am obviously conversant with peripheral defenses which have been asserted by the respondents.

Unless otherwise ordered by the Court I will be ready to proceed on Monday the 20th at 10:00 A.M.


With all best wishes,




ANDY MARTIN

ANDY MARTIN: Glenn Beck faces Manhattan protest for raising funds to support liberal Republicans

Illinois corruption-fighter Andy Martin says Glenn Beck is selling his credibility and betraying his audience by appearing at Right Nation 2010, which is supposedly a “conservative unity” event but which in reality is a cover for liberal Illinois Republicans to support the senate campaign of extreme liberal Mark Kirk. “Follow the money,” Andy Martin says. “Money placed in the pocket of the Illinois Republican Party will go to support Mark Kirk’s corrupt campaign, and to campaign against, not for conservative voters and conservative values. Why is Glenn Beck supporting such activity? It’s disgraceful.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE FRIDAY

ANDY MARTIN SAYS GLENN BECK SHOULD BOYCOTT RIGHT NATION 2010

MARTIN SAYS THAT BECK IS EFFECTIVELY RAISING MONEY FOR THE MOST LIBERAL AND CORRUPT STATE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN THE NATION

MARTIN SAYS ILLINOIS REPUBLICANS WILL USE BECK’S CASH TO SUPPORT CLOSETED SENATE CANDIDATE MARK KIRK, WHO FAVORS INFANTICIDE AND OTHER EXTREME LIBERAL POSITIONS

(NEW YORK)(September 16, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, will hold a New York City news conference Friday, September 17th to condemn Glenn Beck for acting as a front for liberals in the Illinois Republican Party.

“Let me start by saying that there are a number of fine conservatives who are participating in Right Nation 2010,” Martin says. “But they are being used as dupes by the Illinois Republican Party. Where is senate candidate Mark Kirk? Hiding from conservatives. While liberal Republicans claim they are for ‘unity’ and raise cash to support Kirk nefarious candidacy, Kirk is running TV ads claiming he is an ‘independent.’

“Illinois Republican leaders, led by corrupt attorney and influence-peddler Pat Brady, nominated the most liberal candidate for the U. S. Senate in either party anywhere in the United States, Mark Kirk. Kirk voted for infanticide. He is not ‘pro-choice;’ he is for killing children who are born alive.

“Illinois Republican leaders such as Pat Brady are part of a corrupt bipartisan ‘Combine’ that loots Illinois taxpayers to feed both Republican and Democratic greed. Te State of Illinois is bankrupt, but government was not bankrupted solely by Democrats. Republicans are equally guilty, and are equal recipients of the endless public graft.

“Why is Glenn Beck supporting these crooks and raising money to broadcast their message? Has he no concern for his own credibility? He should stay the hell away from Illinois’ despicable Republican Party leadership and bogus conservatives.

“Kirk is a military pretender who lied about his medals, lied about his military service and lied about every aspect of his adult life. He effectively raped and abandoned his former wife, Kimberly Bertoli, and left her an emotional basket case.

“In Congress, Kirk played ‘footsie’ with Republican Pedophile Mark Foley, and helped sabotage President George Bush’s conservative agenda, in concert and conspiracy with homosexual employees on the payroll of former Speaker Dennis Hastert.

“As a college student Kirk followed gay lovers to Mexico, and sought to be around children to satisfy his pedophilic urges. Gay media and gay leaders regularly report on Kirk’s homosexual activity and hypocrisy.

“Are we supposed to forget Kirk’s past? Or present? Do we ignore his lies and vote for him as the ‘lesser of two evils?’ I think not. I have no problem with gays in the Republican Party. But I do have a serious problem with closeted Republican gay men that are subject to blackmail by liberal Democrats that know the truth about their depredations in Chicago’s ‘Boy’s Town.’

“I have a problem with a man who votes against repeal of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell,’ and then sends his emotional basket case former wife out to claim that he will vote for repeal if he is elected.

“Kirk is a scandal waiting to happen, after all of the scandals he has already generated in 2010. There are more to come.

“Beck is being paid to raise money where the principal beneficiary will be Illinois Republican leaders. If a liberal media personality such as Keith Olbermann were doing the same for corrupt Democrats, Beck would be howling in protest. He would compare Olbermann to Judas Iscariot and accuse him of selling his soul for thirty pieces of silver.

“Well, what about it Glen? Are you so hard up for cash you have to raise money that is going right into the pockets of the most extremely liberal Republican Party organization in America?”

Martin says that while Right Nation 2010 is billed as a "unity" event, in reality it is exactly the opposite. The meeting is nothing but a closeted fund raising vehicle to gain support for the Illinois Republican Party’s liberal agenda while seeking to neuter and neutralize genuine Illinois and Midwestern state conservatives through a bogus veneer of “unity.”

“Mark Kirk has made a joke of the Illinois Republican Party. Why would Beck want to make a joke of his conservative credentials? Does he need the money that bad?” Martin will state outside Beck’s midtown office building.

Martin says he would not be surprised to see pickets at Right Nation on Saturday, and “spontaneous” demonstrations which erupt inside the convention center as protests against Beck’s presence and support for Republican liberals becomes more generally known. Martin does not condone any form of violent demonstrations, however.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN SAYS HE CAN ALWAYS TELL WHEN THE LEFT IS SCARED; THEY START ATTACKING ANDY AGAIN

MARTIN SAYS THAT THE LEFT’S DESPERATION CAN BE SEEN FROM THE CONSTANT EFFORTS TO SMEAR ANDY BY DISTORTING HIS ANTI-CORRUPTION EFFORTS THIRTY AND FORTY YEARS AGO

MARTIN SAYS THAT AS BETWEEN THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE, MARTIN IS SLOWLY BUT SURELY BESTING OBAMA

MARTIN IS EN ROUTE TO FLORIDA FOR A “WAR COUNCIL” OVER THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND TO PLAN THE DEFEAT OF BARACK OBAMA IN 2012


(NEW YORK)(September 1, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, is coming under new attacks by Barack Obama’s leftist stooges as Obama continues to lose media approval and public support. Martin is en route to Florida for a “war council” to orchestrate the delegitimization and defeat of Obama in 2012.

“I think it was Adlai Stevenson,” Martin says, “who said ‘I’ll stop telling the truth about them when they stop telling lies about me.’ Well, they’re lying again.

“The latest smear is a rehash of a rehash of a smear job by the New York Times during the 2008 presidential campaign. Last spring I was attacked by the Washington Post’s resident slimeball, David Weigel, who misrepresented my views. We are gearing up to sue Mr. Weigel. Now another leftist stooge, Stephen Webster of RawStory.com, is attacking me as a retort to Obama’s collapsing poll numbers.

“Webster accuses me of spreading ‘rumors’ about Barack Obama. That’s simply a Big Fat Stalinist Lie. Everything I have written about Obama is true; no one can point to a single word of mine that Obama has impeached. In fact, other authors have used my writing as a starting point, retraced my steps and confirmed my original views.

“Obama uses his media thugs to attack me as a way to shore up his poll numbers. He is terrified I’m winning and he’s losing.

“We will have our column Thursday or Friday on why Obama is a Muslim. We keep reaffirming our research and analysis and we stick by what we wrote in 2004.

“Webster goes on to suggest that ‘Fox News gave me a shot at fame.’ I was famous before I appeared on Fox News; they asked me to be a guest because everyone’s research was based on my original scholarly work. To paraphrase ‘Sunset Boulevard,’ ‘I made Fox News, they didn’t make me.’

“Webster attacks me for my theory that Frank Marshall Davis is really Obama’s biological daddy. Obama has never denied that fact. And, since I do not have a blood test to prove my theory, I have carefully labeled my theory as a theory.

‘What is interesting is that Webster has probably not done any original, independent research into the facts and truth about Obama. I have actually been to Hawai’i and done original research there over three years. We produced the only film on Obama's Hawai’i years. It's on the Internet to be viewed.

“My movement is growing based on the facts and the truth about BHO. Obama is in decline because he is a liar and fraud. We are hoping to raise money to go back to Hawai'i in November. No other writer has done the extensive on-the-scene research I have in Chicago, Honolulu and New York. That is where my theory about Davis comes from.

“Webster, instead, uses the New York Times’ propaganda barrages against me as his journalistic snot rag. He can't do research so he merely regurgitates old lies.

“I am indeed controversial in our judicial system. I am exposing corruption constantly. Just last month I exposed a creepy judge in Springfield, Illinois who bought himself a judgeship, and kept making political contributions while sitting on a case involving his donees.

“I plead guilty to being unpopular in Illinois politics. But this is the same Illinois politics that once voted to condemn the late Senator Paul Simon as a traitor. I am in good company. I am not controversial because I am a bad guy in Illinois. I am one of the few good guys who has spent a career exposing petty and great corruption in our legal system.

“As a young law student at the University of Illinois College of Law, I incurred the wrath of the Illinois Supreme Court when I worked with reporters to expose two corrupt justices who were forced to resign from the Court.

“Then I exposed liberal icon John Paul Stevens as someone who had done shady business with the corrupt Illinois Democratic Party.

“I exposed Jose (‘call me Joe’) Cabranes, the ‘cocaine cowboy’ of the federal courts, who appeared to be so high in court he was flying off the bench. Cocaine Cabranes is no friend of mine. But President Bill Clinton looked at my evidence and rejected Cabranes for the Supreme Court.

“Can anyone else point to such a successful record of fighting corruption? I don’t think so.

“It is amazing how the left uses McCarthyism to attack me because I am Obama’s strongest and longest critic. They dredge up thirty and forty year-old news stories and then distort the facts to smear me, not because of what I did then, but because of what I am doing now.

“In the final analysis, being smeared by Barack Obama and his sleazy supporters is the ultimate compliment. He created a dirty tricks squad to attack me in 2008, and they continue to harass me. I must be a threat for 2012 or they would not be trying to minimize my impact. I exposed Obama as a Muslim six years ago. Stephen Webster, Newsweek and the mainstream media are forced to admit the American people believe me, not Obama.

“If I have to choose between the confidence of the American people and the confidence of the Weigels and Websters of this world, I am proud to say every day more and more Americans believe my research,” Martin says. “Obama can go and be the president of Kenya. He’s eligible there.”

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SUNDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN PALM BEACH

Andy Martin says Greek-Americans should send Mark Kirk a message: They will boycott the Republican Party as long as it is led by racist drunks and punks such as Pat Brady and Mark Kirk

Martin says Kirk’s attempts to demonize Alexi Giannoulias by connecting Giannoulias to economic problems in Greece is nothing more than ethnic McCarthyism.

Martin says he is taking the lead in “taking down” Kirk because Illinois’ Greek-American leaders are afraid to stand up and condemn the bigotry of the Republican Party

(CHICAGO)(September 5, 2010) Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin will hold a Palm Beach news conference Sunday, September 5th to accuse Mark Kirk of being “racist, repulsive and repugnant” for attacking Alexi Giannoulias based on the financial crisis in Greece.

“Mr. Kirk and his slimy patron, the drunken brawler Pat Brady, have been attacking Alexi Giannoulias as a Mafioso. They have now begun to demonize Giannoulias for problems in Greece having nothing to do with Giannoulias:


http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/02/
alexi-giannoulias-mark-kirk-greek_n_703230.html

“I do not support Alexi Giannoulias, have never spoken to him, and have no connection with his campaign. But my mother’s parents immigrated from Greece, and they came to the Chicago area about a hundred years ago to work on building the railroads. My family was involved in founding some of the earliest associations of the Greek-American community. If my late Uncle Bill Vasiliou was still alive he would be outraged by Kirk’s demagoguery.

“Where are Illinois’ ‘usual’ Greek-American leaders? Are they afraid to stand up for Greece? Are they political hypocrites? If so they are cowards, and they are no better than Mark Kirk.

“I am not an ‘ethnic’ politician and I usually run away from appeals based on parentage. But I was baptized in the Greek Orthodox Church. I will not allow Kirk to conduct his slimy politics and to denigrate Greek-Americans with his malignant campaign tactics. [I later joined the Episcopal Church where my father worshipped.]

“If anyone should be considered an agent of a foreign government, it is Mark Kirk. Kirk takes campaign cash to be a mouthpiece for the Israeli military junta in Tel Aviv. It is Kirk who sabotaged America’s foreign policy interests for campaign cash, not Alexi Giannoulias. Kirk is the one who lied about ‘weapons of mass destruction’ in Iraq the same way he lied about his own military career. Some ‘intelligence officer’ Kirk is. Kirk dragged us into a war that virtually bankrupted ordinary Americans, damaged our economy and cost us thousands of dead troops and tens of thousands of disabled veterans.

“Kirk has a lot of nerve bragging about his Navy service, where he has spent two decades doing little more than enjoying buggery. Kirk’s attempt to link Giannoulias to the financial problems of the European Union are laughable. Kirk’s comparison of his disgraceful behavior in the Navy to Giannoulias’ basketball playing is a complete non sequitur. Kirk is a disgrace to every American, to the U. S. Navy uniform, and to the Republican Party.

“Kirk’s anti-Greek smears are desperate acts by a desperate man whom I previously exposed as America’s greatest liar and the biggest embarrassment to the U. S. Navy in years.

“Spain has financial problems similar to those in Greece. I don’t see Kirk insulting Hispanics. Ireland is a financial mess. Should we blame Pat Brady and hold him accountable for Ireland’s economy? Not at all. Even I won’t blame Brady for Ireland’s problems. Brady has enough problems of his own. He’s in bed with Mark Kirk.

“The bottom line: both Kirk and Giannoulias have failed to ‘close the deal’ with Illinois voters. Both men are flawed in different ways. But in the days ahead they should make their cases to the voters without engaging in ethnic slurs. Kirk’s anti-Greek behavior is an embarrassment to the Republican Party, locally and nationally.

“If Mr. Kirk expects to continue to represent the Republican Party through November, and he could always decide to step down after we dump more embarrassing disclosures on him in a few days, he should not be insulting Greek-Americans and should stop trying to link Giannoulias to the nation of Greece. If Kirk keeps up the anti-Greek attacks, he is going to be very unhappy when I expose his unsavory links to Israel and Mark Foley.

“Greece has been a loyal friend to America, through World War II, Korea and in the Cold War. To see Kirk smearing Greece to gain a few Neanderthal votes tells you what kind of a senator Kirk would be: divisive, corrupt and totally without any moral scruples.

“Kirk is a despicable human being who devastated and destroyed his wife, and left her an emotional basket case. Our investigation of the Kimberly Vertoli tragedy is continuing; we will also have forthcoming exposes on Kirk’s unfitness to hold any public office.

“I was the person who exposed Kirk’s military lies in January. I exposed him as a Navy imposter long before the national media did so. We have more negative facts on Kirk and we aim to see that the Illinois public knows who Kirk really is before they vote on November 2nd. He is a sick, sick man,” Martin will charge.

Martin is on vacation visiting relatives in Florida and also meeting with supporters to plan the 2012 defeat of Barack Obama.

BLOG FOR THE 2010 CAMPAIGN

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN PREDICTS CHRISTINE O’DONNELL WINS DELAWARE IN NOVEMBER

MARTIN SAYS A “WAVE” IS BUILDING THAT IS GOING TO SWEEP AWAY MUCH OF THE OLD POLITICAL ORDER

(NEW YORK)(September 16, 2010) No sooner had Christine O’Donnell won the Delaware primary for U. S. Senator than Carl Rove was on Fox News trashing her as a sure loser. I beg to differ with Mr. Rove. O’Donnell is a sure winner. Christine O’Donnell is going to the U. S. Senate.

Rove is a bright guy. And a lot of bright people in the Republican Party agree with him. But they’re wrong. It’s a cultural thing. Rove is a millionaire and making a fortune. People in both parties in Washington are prospering. Most of us are not.

Every so often a tsunami wave comes along and sweeps people into office that would normally lose. 2010 is such a year.

In fact, Rove on the right, and the liberal media on the left, have already become unwitting agents of O’Donnell’s November election.

I don’t know what O’Donnell’s financial problems are. And I am not going to study them carefully. But I do know most Americans are struggling right now. Those that are not struggling are afraid they “might be next.” The more Rove-on-the-right and the media-on-the-left attack O’Donnell for her financial problems, and for struggling with her life, and for her occasional loopy statement, the more they are going to make her acceptable to ordinary voters, even ordinary Democrats.

And look who she’s running against: a tax-addicted spend-and-spend Democrat. O’Donnell has the perfect foil.

I first went to Washington in 1966. That was a “wave” year. Illinois Republicans nominated Chuck Percy for U. S. Senator because they wanted him to lose (!). Senator Paul Douglas first spoke to me about the coming wave. He was a sure winner who became a loser when the wave hit. I have been studying political waves since then.

I saw what Barack Obama was doing to America last year. That is when I first began to expect a wave to hit him in 2010. And, on schedule, the wave is on the way. Obama can’t stop it.

In my book “Obama: the Man Behind the Mask,” I prepared a psychological profile of Obama [in 2007]. I predicted in 2007 how Obama would see the wave coming and freeze. He’s pretty cold right now.

I don’t feel I am going out on a limb predicting O’Donnell’s victory in November. Because this election is not about Christine O’Donnell, or Sharron Angle or any of the other “Tea Party” candidates that have turned up as surprise winners in primary elections. The “wave” is behind them. They are going to sweep away what is in front of them.

“Wave” elections are totally different from ordinary campaigns. When a political wave hits it washes away everything in it way. In the days ahead I’ll give more detailed reasons for my belief that this is a wave election. But trust me. Republicans are going to be elected who could never be elected in any other year.

Pollster Dick Morris is also predicting a transformative campaign. He’s right. Lionel, my friend who originally hails from Tampa Bay and who is now a WPIX-TV commentator in New York, also feels the early oscillations of the wave. He’s right too.

Look what happened in O’Donnell’s primary. She began as a joke, a sure loser. A month ago O’Donnell was still a joke. Two weeks ago she was a dead duck. A week ago she became a remote threat. And this week the wave hit and a she defeated a sure winner. Congressman Castle was washed away.

What happened? The more the media and her own party establishment ganged up on O’Donnell, and the more they beat up on her, the stronger she became. Her opponents validated her independence.

Everyone agrees people are angry. [In addition to being a “wave” election, this is a “sleeping giant” election; more of the “giant” later.] Ordinary voters are suffering in a way that the media still can’t portray or comprehend. There is a climate of fear. Growing. People have gone from the luxury of confidence and affluence in 2008 to an attitude of financial fear in 2010.

If Ms. O’Donnell has suffered, and is still suffering, economic problems she has a lot of company. If everyone who lost a job, or feels insecure about the future of their job, votes for her, and if the media energize the process by constantly ridiculing O’Donnell, she is a sure winner.

No one has produced a plan on how to revive our economy. Anything goes. And every candidate who is for “anything goes,” will be swept along by the wave.

O’Donnell’s views on the issues don’t matter. I don’t anticipate campaign debates over the virtues or vices of masturbation, which seems to be an O’Donnell topic of special interest. I have no idea where she stands on abortion. But I do know that O’Donnell will be a disruptive, and therefore a transformative force in the U. S. senate.

Which is why O’Donnell is the next U. S. Senator from Delaware.

“Wave” to her.

BLOG FOR THE 2010 CAMPAIGN

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN IS BACK WITH BLOCKBUSTER ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY

(NEW YORK)(September 16, 2010) I took a couple of weeks off to visit family in Florida and to take a more relaxed view of the current controversies, before all hell broke loose in mid-September. And, much to my surprise, all hell broke loose. Early.

There was the madcap Koran-burning pastor, who turned the world upside down before September 11th. And the demonstrations at the Ground Zero Mosque. And the minute I was out of town Barry Obama started acting up again. On and on it goes.

Well, we’re back. So get ready.

Starting today we will be providing our unique insight on the upcoming election and Pretender Barack Obama's role. Later in the week I hope to announce the results of a “War Council” that was held in Palm Beach during my time off. A major new initiative is on the way in the endless war for the truth and the facts about Barack Obama’s “religion” and place of birth. Aloha Obama!

But let me start with one conclusion, observation, call it what you want, that will serve as the overriding arc for what is to come in the days ahead. Barack Obama has made the 2010 election into a transformative moment in American politics. Most media have not yet grasped this fact. Even though Republicans will be the major beneficiaries of this transformation, most Republicans do not yet appreciate the enormity of what is coming. For better and for worse.

I was channel surfing last night and stumbled across my old friend Lionel from the Tampa Bay area. Twenty years ago Lionel and I used to josh on radio station WFLA. Lionel is one of the few broadcasters that understands what is about to hit the United States. A transformative wave that is going to sweep away much of the existing political order.

I saw such a wave hit in 1964. In the aftermath, President Johnson enacted a massive legislative program in 1965. But Johnson’s reach exceeded his grasp in Viet-Nam. Two years later in 1966 there was a reverse wave that erased the 89th Congress. 1966 led to the chaos of 1968 and the election of President Richard Nixon.

The Watergate wave hit in 1974. Six years later President Ronald Reagan erased the effects of 1974, and then some. Then came 1994 (the most popular frame of reference for 2010 for most cable TV bobbleheads). 2008 erased 1994, and then some.

The 2010 wave is going to be something very big, very unexpected and very upsetting to the established political order.

This column is accompanied by a second column analyzing the primary victory of Christine O’Donnell for U. S. Senator in Delaware.

As usual, readers will agree with some of my views, and disagree with others. But we have a unique insight into what is coming. Just stay with ContrarianCommentary.com and surf the wave. The Republicans can’t see it coming. The Democrats can hear it coming. And just as we were the first news organization to analyze and predict what was happening in 2008, we will be the first in 2010.

Note and full disclosure: To avoid confusion in the days ahead, let me start with a brief explanation. We will be operating on a two-track approach. Primarily, we will be analyzing national trends. Personally I am also involved in the campaign to defeat Mark Kirk for U. S. Senator in Illinois. So some days will be “national” days; and some days will be “Illinois” days. Hopefully, they will complement each other.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANDY MARTIN SAYS HE CAN ALWAYS TELL WHEN THE LEFT IS SCARED; THEY START ATTACKING ANDY AGAIN

MARTIN SAYS THAT THE LEFT’S DESPERATION CAN BE SEEN FROM THE CONSTANT EFFORTS TO SMEAR ANDY BY DISTORTING HIS ANTI-CORRUPTION EFFORTS THIRTY AND FORTY YEARS AGO

MARTIN SAYS THAT AS BETWEEN THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE, MARTIN IS SLOWLY BUT SURELY BESTING OBAMA

MARTIN IS EN ROUTE TO FLORIDA FOR A “WAR COUNCIL” OVER THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND TO PLAN THE DEFEAT OF BARACK OBAMA IN 2012


(NEW YORK)(September 1, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, is coming under new attacks by Barack Obama’s leftist stooges as Obama continues to lose media approval and public support. Martin is en route to Florida for a “war council” to orchestrate the delegitimization and defeat of Obama in 2012.

“I think it was Adlai Stevenson,” Martin says, “who said ‘I’ll stop telling the truth about them when they stop telling lies about me.’ Well, they’re lying again.

“The latest smear is a rehash of a rehash of a smear job by the New York Times during the 2008 presidential campaign. Last spring I was attacked by the Washington Post’s resident slimeball, David Weigel, who misrepresented my views. We are gearing up to sue Mr. Weigel. Now another leftist stooge, Stephen Webster of RawStory.com, is attacking me as a retort to Obama’s collapsing poll numbers.

“Webster accuses me of spreading ‘rumors’ about Barack Obama. That’s simply a Big Fat Stalinist Lie. Everything I have written about Obama is true; no one can point to a single word of mine that Obama has impeached. In fact, other authors have used my writing as a starting point, retraced my steps and confirmed my original views.

“Obama uses his media thugs to attack me as a way to shore up his poll numbers. He is terrified I’m winning and he’s losing.

“We will have our column Thursday or Friday on why Obama is a Muslim. We keep reaffirming our research and analysis and we stick by what we wrote in 2004.

“Webster goes on to suggest that ‘Fox News gave me a shot at fame.’ I was famous before I appeared on Fox News; they asked me to be a guest because everyone’s research was based on my original scholarly work. To paraphrase ‘Sunset Boulevard,’ ‘I made Fox News, they didn’t make me.’

“Webster attacks me for my theory that Frank Marshall Davis is really Obama’s biological daddy. Obama has never denied that fact. And, since I do not have a blood test to prove my theory, I have carefully labeled my theory as a theory.

‘What is interesting is that Webster has probably not done any original, independent research into the facts and truth about Obama. I have actually been to Hawai’i and done original research there over three years. We produced the only film on Obama's Hawai’i years. It's on the Internet to be viewed.

“My movement is growing based on the facts and the truth about BHO. Obama is in decline because he is a liar and fraud. We are hoping to raise money to go back to Hawai'i in November. No other writer has done the extensive on-the-scene research I have in Chicago, Honolulu and New York. That is where my theory about Davis comes from.

“Webster, instead, uses the New York Times’ propaganda barrages against me as his journalistic snot rag. He can't do research so he merely regurgitates old lies.

“I am indeed controversial in our judicial system. I am exposing corruption constantly. Just last month I exposed a creepy judge in Springfield, Illinois who bought himself a judgeship, and kept making political contributions while sitting on a case involving his donees.

“I plead guilty to being unpopular in Illinois politics. But this is the same Illinois politics that once voted to condemn the late Senator Paul Simon as a traitor. I am in good company. I am not controversial because I am a bad guy in Illinois. I am one of the few good guys who has spent a career exposing petty and great corruption in our legal system.

“As a young law student at the University of Illinois College of Law, I incurred the wrath of the Illinois Supreme Court when I worked with reporters to expose two corrupt justices who were forced to resign from the Court.

“Then I exposed liberal icon John Paul Stevens as someone who had done shady business with the corrupt Illinois Democratic Party.

“I exposed Jose (‘call me Joe’) Cabranes, the ‘cocaine cowboy’ of the federal courts, who appeared to be so high in court he was flying off the bench. Cocaine Cabranes is no friend of mine. But President Bill Clinton looked at my evidence and rejected Cabranes for the Supreme Court.

“Can anyone else point to such a successful record of fighting corruption? I don’t think so.

“It is amazing how the left uses McCarthyism to attack me because I am Obama’s strongest and longest critic. They dredge up thirty and forty year-old news stories and then distort the facts to smear me, not because of what I did then, but because of what I am doing now.

“In the final analysis, being smeared by Barack Obama and his sleazy supporters is the ultimate compliment. He created a dirty tricks squad to attack me in 2008, and they continue to harass me. I must be a threat for 2012 or they would not be trying to minimize my impact. I exposed Obama as a Muslim six years ago. Stephen Webster, Newsweek and the mainstream media are forced to admit the American people believe me, not Obama.

“If I have to choose between the confidence of the American people and the confidence of the Weigels and Websters of this world, I am proud to say every day more and more Americans believe my research,” Martin says. “Obama can go and be the president of Kenya. He’s eligible there.”
