Andy Martin holds Chicago news conference Friday, September 19th to state Mark Kirk is unfit for reelection
Independent Republican Party activist Andy Martin and his new
political action team, Coalition for America ,
will hold a Chicago news conference
Friday, September 19th detailing why Mark Kirk is unfit for
reelection. Andy catalogs all of Kirk’s current false claims and continuing
efforts at stolen valor even after Kirk was exposed as a military fraud in
2010. Andy also demands that Kirk disclose all of the alias’ he has used in
addition to “Hillel Underwood” and where he has used them. Andy also questions
whether a reputed closeted gay male can be elected in light of the changed
social climate and acceptance of same-sex marriage. Andy says Mark Kirk is not
electable in 2016 and was only elected in 2010 because Democrats nominated a
mobbed-up “banker” with Crime Syndicate links as their candidate.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Announcement
of Chicago news conference Tuesday
Attention
national and Chicago daybook/assignment editors
Andy Martin calls on Mark Kirk to stop
seeking reelection in 2016
Andy
says that even after Kirk’s 2010 military scandals Kirk continues to lie on his
U. S. Senate web page and lie to Chicago media about the details of
his military service
Andy
says Kirk’s entire public career has been “a series of lies”
(CHICAGO ) (September 19, 2014 ) Independent Republican activist
Andy Martin will hold a Chicago
news conference today, Friday, September 19th, to document why Senator Mark
Kirk is unfit for reelection and should not be fundraising using Michelle
Obama’s name.
“Mark Kirk is a disgrace to the Republican Party,” Andy
charges. “I have written to Senator Kirk and asked him to step down when his
current term expires. All of the claims I make in the letter, which follows
below, are documented by a series of links at the bottom of this article. Even
after his 2010 scandals, Kirk continues to lie on his senate web page that he
has “deployed” on active duty service when DOD regulations (links below)
prohibit such a false claim.
“The accusations by gay activist Mike Rogers that Kirk is a
closeted homosexual are still on Rogers ’
web page.
“All in all Kirk’s entire public life has been a total and
complete fraud and he should step down so that the party can begin to choose a
replacement.”
Letter to Kirk (without Coalition for America
letterhead):
Senator Mark Kirk
Dear Senator Kirk:
“There you go again!”
I find that you are again blatantly misrepresenting and
inflating your military record. In addition, there are personal issues that
make it obscene for you to be fundraising for reelection using the name of
Michelle Obama. For the good of the Republican Party you should announce that
you are not running for reelection so that the party can begin the selection
process for your replacement now.
1. Misrepresenting your military record
I began investigating your false military record in 2009,
see letter posted at www.MarkKirk.us.
Later you went on to describe for Chicago
media imaginary battles in Afghanistan
in which you participated. I documented your fraudulent activity during
January, 2010 but the local media preferred to engage in a cover-up until the Chicago
cover-up was exposed by the Washington Post in June, 2010. The Washington
Monthly stopped at a running total of nine (9) military lies by you in 2010,
see http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2010_06/024259.php
There is an extensive paper trail, starting with my post at
www.MarkKirk.us detailing that you never “deployed” to Afghanistan
and your activity as a military person was circumscribed by DOD regulations
placing you in the inactive reserve, see: http://capitolfax.com/32790881-Mark-Kirk-Waiver.pdf
Despite the fact that you have repeatedly been exposed for
stolen valor you continue to publish, today, in 2014, the false claim that you
“deployed” to Afghanistan on your senate web page: http://www.kirk.senate.gov/?p=press_kit
and to make the same false clam to Chicago media: http://www.suntimes.com/7501538-417/kirk-stop-aid-to-pakistan.html#.VBv5vSuHiME
After being caught lying to the Chicago Sun-Times before the
2010 election, even after the election scandal you continued to lie to that
newspaper and the Sun-Times continues to falsely report that you were
“deployed” to Afghanistan: http://www.suntimes.com/7501538-417/kirk-stop-aid-to-pakistan.html#.VBv5vSuHiME
In short, you have utter contempt for the truth, utter
contempt for stolen valor and very possibly a serious psychological and/or
psychiatric difficulty that makes you a compulsive liar.
You were elected in 2010 because the Democrats chose to run
a Mobbed-up, Crime Syndicate-linked “banker” as your opponent. I seriously
doubt you will be so lucky next time. Trying to fund raise off the possible
candidacy of Michelle Obama is thus gross and obscene.
2. Your use of false names and alias’
You registered at a hospital under a false name (Hillel
Underwood). That may be a violation of federal law. Although you tried to claim
that a Senate employee encouraged you to do so, a search of senate records
and rules
provides no justification for the claim that the Senate’s employees encourage
false hospital registrations or the use of alias’ in medical or any other
matters. I would ask that you disclose all of the alias’ you have used and
where you have used them since 2000.
3. The allegations of your homosexuality continue in a
changed climate for gay acceptance
To be clear at the outset, I have never accused you of
homosexual behavior and I do not do so at this time. In 2009-2010 I merely
pointed to allegations of your homosexual activity posted by your Lake
County neighbors, the late Col. Ray
True and the late Jack Roeser. I have no personal knowledge of your homosexual
status vel non.
I was attacked by the completely mendacious Chicago
media for truthfully drawing attention to public postings accusing you of being
homosexual.
Subsequently, a gay activist posted a detailed exposition of
your status as a homosexual, based on his personal knowledge and investigation
and based on meeting you personally, see http://www.blogactive.com/?p=1567
Once again, I merely draw attention to what is posted on the
Internet. When you voted against repeal of DADT the gay community attacked you
for hypocrisy, which was also the basis for Mike Rogers’ outing. My guess is that
if you continue to remain closeted, you will again be attacked for the fact of
being closeted.
Since 2010 there has been a sea change in how Americans view
homosexuality. In neighboring Wisconsin ,
an openly lesbian senator has been elected as your colleague. Same-sex marriage
has gained widespread acceptance. In other words, society has generally moved
from a gays-as-closeted attitude to an open acceptance of homosexuals in public
life.
There is strong opposition within the politically active gay
community to closeted males who deny their sexuality. While the matter has yet
to be tested in 2016, if you run for reelection I am relatively certain you
will face opposition from gay activists for remaining closeted in the current
environment of acceptance.
All in all your pretensions to reelection are an
embarrassment to the Republican Party. Instead of acting as a faux candidate
and seeking to raise cash off Michelle Obama, why not do the right thing and
retire at the end of your term so the party may begin a search for your
replacement now.
Respectfully submitted,
