New Hampshire news conference: Andy Martin announces a statewide vote fraud hotline, GOP legal defense team ready

Romney’s Rangers, the Independent Mitt Romney Political Action Team led by New Hampshire corruption-fighter Andy Martin, will hold an Election Day news conference Tuesday November 6th to announce a statewide toll-free vote fraud hotline and the formation of a GOP legal defense team if election irregularities appear in Granite State voting results. Andy has been fighting in Strafford County and the New Hampshire Supreme Court to uphold a new law passed by the New Hampshire legislature that seeks to prevent temporary residents in New Hampshire from voting in New Hampshire elections. Andy will be voting at 11:00 A.M. in Manchester’s Third Ward (1528 Elm Street).

ANNOUNCEMENT OF MANCHESTER, NH NEWS CONFERENCE TUESDAY NOVEMBER 6TH

ATTENTION NATIONAL AND NEW HAMPSHIRE DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Romney’s Rangers, led by Republican Party corruption fighter Andy Martin, will hold a Manchester news conference today to announce a statewide toll-free vote fraud hotline and a potential legal defense strategy if any vote fraud arises

Andy has been fighting in Superior Court and the New Hampshire Supreme Court to uphold a new New Hampshire law that seeks to prevent out-of-state individuals from voting in local elections without first becoming legal New Hampshire residents

Andy says New Hampshire’s “same day registration” makes the state extremely vulnerable to vote fraud

Andy votes in Manchester’s Third Ward at 11:00 A.M.

(MANCHESTER, NH) (November 6, 2012) Republican Party corruption fighter Andy Martin will hold a Manchester news conference Tuesday, November 6th at the Third Ward polling location (outside, on the public sidewalk, not inside the voting area) to announce a statewide toll-free vote fraud hotline and to announce he is prepared to go to court to challenge any presidential election voting irregularities.

Andy, New Hampshire’s leading corruption-fighter, has been a litigator in the ongoing battle to defend a new state law which seeks to prevent individuals from voting in New Hampshire without first establishing full New Hampshire residence.

“Unlike some other areas of the country, New Hampshire does not have a tradition of fraudulent elections,” Andy says. “But today’s election is a close one, and the temptation is always there. We are establishing a Statewide Toll-free Vote Fraud Hotline to accept reports of vote fraud or voting irregularities.

“I am also announcing that I am prepared to go to court and to assemble a legal team if an unusually close election results in contested election practices or ballots. Once again, other areas of the nation have egregious records of vote fraud and manipulation. New Hampshire thankfully does not have such a tradition. But we aim to keep it that way.

“I have been fighting in court to uphold a new law which seeks to prevent out-of-state citizens from voting in New Hampshire elections. The Democratic Party’s stalking horses sued in Strafford County to allow temporary residents to vote in New Hampshire, and Bill Clinton announced his support for such drive-by voting, which makes me suspicious Obama and Axelrod and their Chicago dirty tricksters may have plans for a little vote fraud in New Hampshire. So I am on the lookout for evidence of any voting irregularities.

“Because of same-day registration, New Hampshire is particularly vulnerable to vote fraud,” Andy notes.

Andy will also cast his own vote before his news conference.

Anyone wishing to report vote fraud voting irregularities can call (866) 706-ANDY.

High drama unfolds in a New Hampshire courtroom; Andy Martin granted amicus curiae status by the court

New Hampshire corruption-fighter and maverick Republican Party activist Andy Martin was in Strafford County Superior Court Thursday afternoon as an electric confrontation unfolded between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of New Hampshire government. Superior Court Justice John Lewis granted Andy status as an amicus curiae and postponed a decision on Andy’s motion to intervene. The “student voter” lawsuit now heads to the New Hampshire Supreme Court as the high-stakes, high-profile conflict continues. Andy says the lawsuit could determine the outcome of a close presidential election.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



New Hampshire Republican Party corruption-fighter Andy Martin experiences an unusual high stakes hearing in Strafford County Superior Court



The Strafford County case could determine the outcome of a close presidential election, Andy says



Andy is granted amicus curiae status by the superior court justice



Andy will be in the New Hampshire Supreme Court Friday



Sharp exchanges mark the 2-1/2 hour hearing Thursday afternoon on student voting



(Manchester, NH) (October 5, 2012) “In the forty-four years since I first walked into a courtroom as a public interest litigant, I have almost never seen anything quite like what I witnessed in the Strafford County Superior Court on Thursday,” Andy Martin observes.



“The Strafford County Courthouse is a 1970’s brick and glass moderne structure that sits on a site that is barely removed from being a pasture. Across the street is the county jail and probably in earlier years the county farm (the courthouse is on County Farm Road).



“The superior court justice was whip smart and interested in doing the right thing.



“The dry Associated Press report (link below) which concentrates on Secretary of State Bill Gardner’s affidavit, does not do justice to the drama which unfolded.



“Originally scheduled for an hour, the hearing lasted two and a half hours. There was a battle royal, or maybe just a giant food fight, between the three branches of New Hampshire government.



“The court began by considering three motions to intervene in the case. The court questioned the authority of the Speaker of the New Hampshire House of Representatives to intervene as a party; the Speaker was granted amicus curiae status. A vigorous exchange characterized the Speaker’s and the justice’s consideration of the intervention motion.



“Then another intervener was heard, and his motion was denied (and later converted to “ruling deferred”).



“My motion to intervene was then heard by the court.



“The court granted me status as an amicus curiae. After some argument about what was the proper procedure, the justice decided to defer a ruling on my motion to intervene. I was seated at counsel table and the hearing on the merits of the controversy began.



“In what was an unusual scene, the justice began asking the attorney general if he could adequately represent the secretary of state. The justice then addressed the secretary of state directly, and the secretary asked for a time out. Surreal.



“Eventually, Secretary of State Bill Gardner answered the court’s questions for what seemed like an extended period.



“Later there was another sharp exchange between the justice and the Speaker’s counsel.



“The justice appeared to be concerned that the initial hearing in the case held in mid-September might not have been sufficiently adversarial and sufficiently informative for the court. As this is written I have not yet seen an amended order from the justice but I expect one to appear some time Friday.



“My principal contribution to the proceedings was to support the judge in his searching inquiry questioning the plaintiffs ‘standing’ to file the lawsuit, and my succinct discussion of the relationship between ‘standing’ and the court’s subject matter jurisdiction. I will be filing a very informative motion of my own in the Supreme Court on Friday.



“All in all the hearing in Dover was one of the most adversarial and confrontational I have ever seen.



“The constitutional issues are profound. The State House believes the legislators changed the law and did so clearly. There is strong legal authority for that view. Secretary Gardner and I believe the House wanted to end ‘dual domicile,’ which creates a conflict between general residency and voting domicile. As the hearing continued the issues became more complex.



“No one can predict what a supreme court will do. But here is my best guess. I believe the court will accept the new law, accept the amendments and endorse the House’s view that it intended to and did end ‘dual domicile.’ I believe Secretary Gardner and I will prevail on that position. In the meantime, we could see a slugfest next week.



“Fasten your seat belts. This is not a dull case and the hearings are not boring. I have seldom seen such electricity in a courtroom.



“And, hovering over the proceedings is former president Bill Clinton’s exhortation to students at UNH Wednesday afternoon to flood New Hampshire polling places with liberal out-of-state voters.



“Every New Hampshire voter and every New Hampshire taxpayer has a vital interest in the outcome of this lawsuit. Whatever the bland news reports may say, this was an electric hearing Thursday afternoon. Expect more voltage on all sides,” Andy believes.



“Lights, action, cameras.”



[We will distribute our Supreme Court filing after it is delivered to the court Friday afternoon.]

New Hampshire news: Andy Martin was for Mitt Romney before the first debate October 3rd

Anti-Obama leader, New Hampshire corruption-fighter and maverick Republican Party activist Andy Martin was pro-Romney before the first debate. When media bobbleheads were hand-wringing over Romney’s campaign in mid-September, Andy stood up and said he was “strongly behind the Romney presidential campaign” and announced the formation of “Romney’s Rangers.” Andy has been battling in court to block Barack Obama from stealing New Hampshire’s electoral votes by trucking in out-of-state “students” from New York and Massachusetts. “It’s easy to join a winning wave, the day after a strong debate,” Andy says. “It took guts and character to stick with your candidate when Republican and conservative crybabies were ready to write off Mitt Romney last month.” I am proud to have been for Romney before October 3rd. Good job, Governor.




Wednesday afternoon, former President Bill Clinton let the cat out of the bag by attacking Andy’s efforts to block out-of-state voters. Now we know who’s really behind the Strafford County lawsuit.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



New Hampshire Republican Party corruption-fighter Andy Martin is celebrating Thursday morning; at a time last month when other “Republicans” were critical of Mitt Romney’s campaign, Andy stood out and stood up with strong support for Romney



“I was for Mitt before October 3rd,” Andy says



Andy will be in court Thursday afternoon fighting to stop Barack Obama from stealing New Hampshire’s electoral votes



Wednesday President Bill Clinton attacked Andy’s efforts



(Manchester, NH) (October 4, 2012) Mitt Romney will have a lot of new friends this morning.



I won’t be one of them.



I was already for Romney – before October 3rd.



On September 21st (see link below) I announced the formation of “Romney’s Rangers.” I said “There is no choice but to “Stand up for Romney and I am very proud to stand up with Mitt Romney as our presidential candidate.”



So, today I am extremely proud at Romney’s debate performance. It was a great debate. Both candidates gave it their best. But Romney’s “best” was better than Obama’s “best.” The long faces at MSNBC could not conceal their disappointment at President Obama’s showing. I was particularly fascinated by Ed Schultz, who is a strong liberal but often tells the truth about the state of the fight. Schultz was despondent with Obama’s performance.



As I said on September 21st, no candidate is perfect. But I had confidence in Mitt Romney because I have studied his campaign for the past eighteen months. During the primaries I was often critical of the other candidates. But I saw a future president in Romney. Republicans needed a winner. Romney could win. I believed he could and would. And will.



So today I am exultant at Romney’s preparation, his presentation and his total performance last night.



For my part, I have been tirelessly battling on Romney’s behalf. I am very proud to have been the first and so far the only Republican to stand up against a bogus lawsuit filed in Strafford County by Obama supporters to flood New Hampshire with liberal out-of-state voters. Wednesday afternoon former President Bill Clinton attacked my efforts (link below). (State House Speaker Bill O’Brien later sought to intervene in an official capacity, but not as a partisan). I am an openly Republican battler against the phony “Democrat v Democrat” lawsuit that was filed to legitimize out-of-state voting.



Mr. Romney realized Wednesday night that he needed to broaden his presentation. He spoke of his record as governor. Romney accomplished as governor of Massachusetts what he is promising to accomplish as president of the United States. Romney is not only a “businessman.” He is a candidate who rescued the Olympics. He is a candidate who proved he could be a successful chief executive in the Massachusetts governor’s office. Romney performed and produced for the people of Massachusetts. He can perform and produce for the American people in the White House.



At a time when nervous “conservatives” were writing off Mitt Romney, in mid-September, I stood tall with our party’s candidate. I’m even taller for him today. And of course every early Romney backer welcomes Mitt’s new post-October 3rd supporters.



No party and no candidate is perfect. We all have our faults. But Romney is the man we need in the White House. I totally believe Ann Romney when she says “Mitt will not fail.”



President Obama is absolutely correct that this is a “choice” election. Americans have a choice between a growing federal government influence in our daily lives and the constitutional conservatism of Mitt Romney and faithful Republicans.



Governor Romney showed he will not abandon those who need help; “We will leave no American behind.” But Romney will also provide incentives for those who want to take risks and “dream big.” Obama dreams of a bigger and bigger government making more and more decisions in our daily lives. Conservatives want an America that helps those who need help without discouraging those who can perform and produce economic opportunities which benefit all of us.



Thursday afternoon I will be in court in Strafford County protecting every New Hampshire ballot box. Bill Clinton can’t scare me off. In fact, if anyone doubted who was behind the bogus “voter” lawsuit, Clinton let the cat out of the bag: the failed Obama/Clinton administration. Wednesday afternoon Clinton made explicit what had hitherto been implicit: the Strafford lawsuit is a partisan maneuver to transfer votes from liberal “Obama base” states to conservative battleground state New Hampshire.



I will be working to ensure that New Hampshire voters do not see their votes diluted by these out-of-state “voters.”



Obama’s supporters tried to pull a typical Chicago-style fast one by stuffing New Hampshire ballot boxes with out-of-state votes. I was standing guard for the people of New Hampshire to block Obama’s scam.



I am proud to stand tall with Mitt Romney.



I will do everything in my power to make Mitt Romney the next president of the United States.

New Hampshire: How Andy Martin may have rescued Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign

Anti-Obama leader, New Hampshire corruption-fighter and maverick Republican Party activist Andy Martin is not the Republican Party’s favorite guy. But Andy’s surprise appearance in a Democrat v Democrat lawsuit in Strafford County, New Hampshire may have rescued Mitt Romney’s presidency and also helped the Republican candidate for governor, Ovide Lamontagne. Andy became the first Republican to appear in the Strafford case to prevent out-of-state ballot box stuffing by President Obama’s campaign. (Question: where were the Republican Party’s “leaders” when Andy was taking the lead in seeking to block a Democratic Party giveaway to Obama?) The Strafford judge has reset a hearing for Thursday October 4th. Andy will be there to defend the Constitution, to make history and to possibly be a pivotal factor in making Mitt Romney president.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



When New Hampshire Republican corruption-fighter Andy Martin moved to intervene in a Strafford County lawsuit that could decide the presidential election the case was a Democrat-v-Democrat love fest; Andy became the first Republican to take action to rescue New Hampshire for the Republican Party on November 6th



Andy’s appearance in an obscure New Hampshire lawsuit raised the national profile of the case and guaranteed that a New Hampshire Republican would be heard in the Democrat-v-Democrat litigation



Andy’s efforts focused attention on President Obama’s efforts to win reelection by stuffing swing state ballot boxes with out-of-state voters



Andy brings his national anti-Obama profile to bear on Republican efforts to carry the crucial state of New Hampshire



Listen to Andy on “Bulldog Live,” in Concord on Wednesday morning October 3rd (WTPL-FM) 10:05 A.M. (live streaming)



Ovide Lamontagne may also owe his election to Andy if Ovide wins by a photo finish



Nate Silver of the New York Times says electoral votes could be deadlocked on November 6th; New Hampshire hangs in the balance



(SEATTLE) (October 2, 2012) OK, let’s start with the obvious. I am not one of the Republican Party of New Hampshire’s favorite leaders. The publisher of the Union Leader Joe McQuaid has called me a “hot dog.” The Associated Press in Concord recently suggested I live in dreamland. I could go on, but you get the idea.



But maybe they’re the ones living in dreamland.



Oh, and I am not on Mitt Romney’s speed-dial.



But maybe I ought to be.



Recent legal action that I initiated may do more to put Romney in the White House than anything else being organized by New Hampshire Republican Party leaders. Here are the facts: you be the judge.



A number of students recently filed a lawsuit in Strafford County Superior Court. The plaintiffs were represented by the usual array of “civil liberties” suspects. It’s a free country; they had a right to file their lawsuit.



The case claims out-of-state students have a “constitutional right” to vote in New Hampshire instead of their home states where they hold driver licenses and register their cars.



Why are out-of-staters so intent on voting in New Hampshire? New Hampshire is a swing state; the student vote could help swing the election to Obama. If students (or others, since the lawsuit seeks to open the floodgates to out-of-state voters, not just students) come from New York or Massachusetts, for example, Obama is going to win those states overwhelmingly. In New York and Massachusetts, their home state votes would be meaningless. In New Hampshire thousands of out-of-state liberal votes could be decisive in the presidential and gubernatorial elections. That’s why the “students” are so desperate to vote in New Hampshire and not in New York or Massachusetts.



The Republican Party of New Hampshire did not seek to intervene and be heard in the Strafford proceedings.



Instead, the lawsuit was “defended” by Attorney General Michael Delaney, appointed by the lame duck liberal Democratic Governor, John Lynch.



And so here was a lawsuit filed by liberal Democrats being “defended” by an office that is controlled by liberal Democrats, seeking to open the floodgates to out-of-state voters in New Hampshire.



That is, until I showed up in court and said “Whoa, this case smells like a Chicago-style plot by Obama’s operatives to stuff New Hampshire ballot boxes with out-of-state votes.”



History may have been changed.



I filed my intervention papers to be heard on Monday morning September 24th. Monday afternoon, the Strafford County justice entered an injunction allowing out-of-staters to vote in New Hampshire. I was scheduled to leave for Honolulu at 6:00 A.M. Tuesday morning the 25th. I could have easily said, “Can’t do it; too busy with the Honolulu trip (investigating Obama) to respond to the judge's order.” But, recognizing the importance of this lawsuit and its potential to damage Romney and Lamontagne, I stayed up all night preparing an appeal of the injunction order. I actually deposited the appeal papers in the FedEx drop box in Salt Lake City where I changed planes. The appeal was received by the New Hampshire Supreme Court on Wednesday the 26th.



In a latter day version of the ride of Paul Reverse I had sounded the alarm about a potentially collusive lawsuit that could swing the state of New Hampshire to Obama using out-of-state voters.



Nate Silver of the New York Times has posited a way the electoral votes could be deadlocked (link below). New Hampshire is a crucial piece of the Romney strategy. The presidency could well turn on who wins new Hampshire. (That is why, in another prescient move, I announced in August that I would limit my fall campaign activity to New Hampshire and Nevada.)



But other than my independent Super PAC “Romney’s Rangers,” and my own formidable litigation activity, what are New Hampshire Republican leaders doing? You'll have to ask them. National ads from the Romney campaign and Super Pacs do help, of course.



But Obama’s people are cunning and ruthless. To demand that students who can vote at home were being denied a “constitutional right” by New Hampshire election authorities is a bold strategy calculated to stuff ballot boxes in a swing state. I was the first Republican to stand up and say “Stop.” To date, the only Republican.



If I had not filed to intervene to block this giveaway, and had not spent all night preparing an appeal to the Supreme Court, thereby forcing the Attorney General’s office to file their own face-saving petition, the Democrats might have walked away with winning New Hampshire without a fight.



And so I have this question for Joe McQuaid: am I a hot dog … or a big dog? Who in the Republican Party is fighting harder and more skillfully than I am to put Mitt Romney in the White House?



Facts are stubborn things. Until I appeared in the Strafford case the Democrats were “litigating” with Democrats. Now the New Hampshire Supreme Court is likely to make a major constitutional pronouncement. My legal maneuvering may have salvaged New Hampshire for Mitt Romney, and therefore saved Romney’s presidency.



Strange but true.



Bottom line: I came home to New Hampshire to honor my grandparents who immigrated to Manchester 100 years ago. I hope you will agree I am doing my best to redeem their legacy and to repay New Hampshire’s great gift to my family.



A copy of the New Hampshire Supreme Court order listing me as one of the parties to be noticed is ATTACHED.

Foreign policy expert Andy Martin: Mitt Romney is right to criticize Obama

Republican foreign policy expert Andy Martin will hold a New York news conference today, Wednesday September 12th to strongly support and endorse presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s critical remarks concerning the foreign policy failures which culminated in the murder of U. S. diplomats in Libya and the storming of the U S Embassy in Cairo. Andy says “Washington Republicans have it wrong, and Romney has it right. The American people will instinctively grasp the correctness of Romney’s criticism of President Obama’s foreign policy failures. Now is the time, not after the election.” Andy will go even further, and call for the resignation of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton because of her foreign policy conflicts with Bill Clinton’s “Global Initiative.”

ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE



ATTENTION NATIONAL AND NEW YORK DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



Republican foreign policy expert Andy Martin backs Mitt Romney in Romney’s fight with liberal media, Washington establishment



Andy says Secretary of State Clinton should step down because of her obvious conflict of interest with the Clinton Global Initiative



Andy says the Obama/Clinton foreign policy is a complete failure and Clinton’s endless stream of “mush words” are viewed with contempt in the Muslim world



Andy says the “October surprise” arrived early, in September, and dooms President Obama to reelection defeat

Andy says we need a president who will stand up for the American people, not a president who has promised to “stand up with the Muslims” in the event of a crisis



Andy has been to Southwest Asia, Afghanistan, Iran and many other countries in the region where Muslim fanatics are raging against America



Andy accuses liberal media of trying to “muzzle” Romney to protect Obama and to avoid a vigorous foreign policy debate during the presidential campaign



(NEW YORK) (September 12, 2012) Republican foreign policy expert and conservative blogger Andy Martin will hold a New York news conference today to strongly support Governor Mitt Romney’s criticism of the Obama Administration’s foreign policy. Andy will also call for the resignation of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.



“First, a brief apology to Governor Romney,” Andy will note. “I have wanted to issue my formal endorsement of Governor Romney for about a month, and because of all of the other news events and our own special operations seeking to defeat President Obama for reelection, I dilly dallied issuing my formal statement in support of Governor Romney. Mitt, my apologies. I will be issuing a formal endorsement of Governor Romney next week in Manchester, New Hampshire when I announce the formation of an independent PAC, “Romney’s Rangers” to work as hard as humanly possible to elect Governor Romney to the presidency.



"Today, September 12th, we learned that on a day when our nation was mourning and memorializing the attacks by Muslim fanatics on September 11, 2001, more Muslim fanatics were storming our embassy in Cairo and killing American diplomats in Libya.



“Predictably, the liberal media have tried to drive a wedge between Governor Romney’s criticism of the Obama administration and the expressions of regret by ‘Washington Republicans’ in Congress (see link below).



“Every American of whatever political view mourns the loss of our diplomats. We are indeed united as a nation as we respond to the deaths of our fellow citizens. But mourning and memorialization are not the issues here. The issue is the total, abject and complete failure of Barack Obama’s foreign policy. Obama's foreign failures are coming crashing down on him just as he runs for reelection at home.



“Unlike other ‘foreign policy experts,’ most of whom are glorified desk jockeys and cable TV talking bobbleheads, I have actually been in Libya, Egypt, Israel and Iran (see final paragraph for details). I have a foreign policy track record you can go online and read. That is why I am uniquely qualified by experience to endorse Governor Romney’s foreign policy remarks and to enthusiastically encourage Romney to vigorously criticize the Obama/Clinton Administration’s failures.



“The liberal media are now trying to suggest there is cleavage between Romney’s aggressive response to Obama’s failures, and the more muted way congressional Republicans have responded (link below). The media are trying to muzzle a debate over Obama’s foreign policy failures by demanding national ‘unity.’ There is no national unity in failure, President Obama. None. President Jimmy Carter taught us that painful reality.



“President Obama, you are a failure and both Governor Romney and the American people have every right to raise that issue during the course of the presidential campaign. The liberal media have it exactly backwards.



“The Houses of Congress are hallowed places where we can mourn and memorialize our lost diplomats. But the political arena, and a presidential campaign, are the proper forums to aggressively attack and debate Obama’s foreign policy failures.



“I was in Iran during the 1979-1980 hostage crisis. I was in Libya and Egypt during earlier turnovers in power in those countries. I went throughout the Middle East in 2003 and was the first person to criticize George W. Bush’s foreign policy failures in Iraq.



“I am well known overseas as someone who calls them as I see them, and I often see over the horizon before our own diplomats do. So while I am supporting Governor Romney’s attacks on President Obama, I am doing so on the basis of a lifetime of professional experience in foreign policy and not as a partisan.



“One of the burdens of being a political analyst and columnist is that I have to go through regular periods of watching the weirdoes on MSNBC. I must admit they are entertaining. But MSNBC’s hosts could not be more wrong when it comes to politics and foreign policy. It was just hours ago that MSNBC’s hosts were drinking a toast to Obama’s reelection and declaring the Romney campaign dead-on-arrival.



“Even before I could write my first round of critical comments, the ‘October surprise’ arrived early this year, in September.



“Everyone believed ‘the economy’ would defeat Obama for reelection. The economy will still be a major contributing factor. And the economy is not helped when viewers see chaos on their TV screens. I will have much, much more to say in the days ahead about the disgraceful way Muslim extremists murdered our diplomats and stormed our embassy. But Obama’s foreign policy collapse is now the paramount reason to remove him from the White House.



“Obama has always been perceived as a weak leader by Americans, even those who personally ‘liked’ Obama and wished him well. But this is no time for a weak leader who intimated in his bogus autobiography that he would ‘stand with the Muslims’ if a crisis ever arose (see FactCheck.org link below for their analysis of what Obama wrote, and Andy's response). FactCheck.org says Obama never said ‘stand with the Muslims’ in haec verba. But the context of Obama’s remarks was very clear. He would ‘stand with them [Arab and Pakistani Americans]’ in the event of a crisis.



“We need a president who is going to stand up for the American people, not ‘stand with the Muslims.’ It’s as simple as that.



“No one is suggesting a return to the mistakes of internment camps in World War II. No one is going to repeat the errors of that conflict. But Obama’s self-professed bias is pro-Muslim.



“Reasonable people can debate Obama’s religious heritage; I have been a leader in that colloquy. But no one can debate the fact that since Obama became president he has indicated in his Cairo speech and elsewhere that he is overly sympathetic to the Muslim perspective. Obama’s presidential words are carved in stone. The Cairo speech will live in infamy in American history. So yes, Obama’s lifetime of pro-Muslim bias can and must be debated.



“But, as they say in the late night TV infomercials, there is more.



“It was just a week ago that I caused a foreign policy community fracas when I exposed how Bill Clinton’s ‘Global Initiative’ had become the source of a competing, alternative foreign policy which created a conflict of interest by undermining Secretary Hillary Clinton’s independence as chief foreign policy maker. Just a few days later the conflict of interest I identified has burst into the open. Hillary Clinton has been flying around the globe, bragging about her frequent flyer miles. But her Clinton/Obama foreign policy has been an abject failure.



“And matters are going to get worse. Much worse.



“We need Mitt Romney in the White House. Mitt needs to ignore liberal media criticism, and ignore the meanderings of the Washington establishment. Romney needs to criticize Obama’s foreign policy failures. The American people want Romney to take off the gloves and show he can lead the nation in a time of crisis. If I may be so vulgar as to snatch another phrase from history, President Obama’s foreign policy failures ‘are chickens coming home to roost,’” Andy charges.



[Andy has over forty years of familiarity with Asia and the Middle East; he is regarded overseas as one of America’s most respected independent foreign policy, military and intelligence analysts. His analysis of the terrorist threat in Iran during the 1979-80 hostage crisis, and again in Iraq in 2003, were leading-edge predictions of what Americans faced in the future.



Andy first went to Asia in 1967 and since then he has been in Israel, Jordan, Libya, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Viet-Nam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Burma and Hong Kong. He was in Iran and Afghanistan in 1979-80, and has regularly returned to Southwest Asia since then. He lived in Iraq in 2003.]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



Internet Powerhouse and conservative blogger Andy Martin heads for Wisconsin





(CHICAGO)(June 4, 2012) Internet Powerhouse and Conservative Blogger Andy Martin is heading for Wisconsin to help defeat efforts to recall Governor Scott Walker.



“I’ve been acting as a ‘truth squad’ for Bill Clinton since 1993 when I opposed the nomination of Janet Reno for attorney general” Andy says. “Bubba talks a sweet line, but it’s all cotton candy.



“The reality is that most of our state governments are broke when you evaluate their unfunded and contingent liabilities. Dead broke. The Clinton Democrats want to fool the American people—and Wisconsin voters—into believing there is an easy, painless way out of out debt dilemma. There is no easy exit.



“Bill Clinton was saved by the Republican congressional victories in 1994. With a Republican congress Clinton could stave off the left-wing ‘crazies’ that wanted to bankrupt America then, and are still trying to bankrupt America today.



“I am a strong supporter of union rights for private employees. As long as a union is honestly run and the leadership is not milking union dues for personal enrichment, unions fill a vital role.



“But public employee unions are pernicious. Public ‘employers’ bargain with the very ‘employees’ that control votes to elect them. How’s that for a conflict of interest? How’s a bankrupt America, a bankruptcy Illinois, a bankrupt California, a bankrupt New York, all because of excessive public employee demands?



“Scott Walker took on the unions and ‘balanced the books’ in Wisconsin. Walker’s job was not a popular one. And so, yes, he took ‘hell’ from the unions for cutting off their spigot of public cash.



“As a Republican and as a conservative, whose presidential campaign is still alive though not active, I stand with Scott Walker. If Walker wins, America wins. If Walker loses, America loses. Wisconsin, it’s as simple and straightforward as that.



“On Wisconsin!”



[Andy’s presence in Wisconsin will be released once he crosses the border from Illinois into Wisconsin. Andy will be counteracting Clinton’s misrepresentations as well as offering to do scut work on election day.]

ANDY MARTIN: Chelsea Clinton’s “Bubbalot” wedding is the launch of Hillary Clinton’s 2012 presidential campaign

Political analyst Andy Martin says that the Clinton wedding was nothing more than a thinly disguised rollout of Hillary Clinton’s 2012 presidential campaign. Hillary can’t campaign openly now, because she is in Obama’s cabinet. But the Clintons see Obama’s blood in the water. They are rallying the same base that abandoned them in 2007-2008, and promoting the restoration of Clinton “royalty” to the White House. “Just wait and see,” Andy says. “Chelsea’s wedding was ‘Clintonesque.’”

“Factually Correct, Not Politically Correct”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Andy Martin says Bill and Hillary Clinton used Chelsea’s wedding to launch Hillary’s 2012 presidential campaign

Just wait and see

Where were the Mezvinskys? Certainly not in the media-released “family” pictures; the wedding was “All Clinton, all the time”

Obama got the message of his “non”-invitation; he better start packing to move out of the White House in 2013. The Clintons are planning to move back in. Vernon Jordan is “the man,” not Barack Obama

(NEW YORK)(August 1, 2010) Well, Chelsea Clinton’s “Bubbalot” wedding has come and gone. Now we analyze the political significance of this massive pseudo-event.

First, this was not a “royal” wedding as Clinton spinmeisters have suggested. Bill Clinton came out of Arkansas trailer trash, and Hillary is good Park Ridge, Illinois Midwestern Republican stock. Royalty, they ain’t.

We normally think of the occupants of the White House as temporary American “royalty.” That illusion was shattered during the Clinton years. They did not act royally. Luckily, “Bubbalot”-on-the-Hudson reminds critics why the Clintons were so despised when they vacated the White House in 2001.

If Al Gore had been elected, the Clintons today would be a sideshow, maybe even a freak show.

It was George Bush’s senseless war in Iraq that undermined the United States and made the Clintons look good by comparison.

Today we have the disastrous Obama administration, which makes Bush look even better by comparison. Leading to a ham-handed Republican "restoration" in 2010. Clinton, Bush and Obama were all in their own way failed leaders. Truth be told, however, Bill Clinton was probably the best president of this trio, or at least the luckiest.

Putting aside Billy Boy’s sexual peccadilloes, thanks to a Republican congress Clinton presided over a golden age for the U. S. economy. Clinton had the sense not to launch a war in southwest Asia.

Bill Clinton might have been an above-average or even a near-great president if had been able to keep his zipper up. He wasn’t. It took George Bush’s disastrous leadership to rehabilitate the impeached President Bubba. And that’s why we had to endure “Bubbalot” on Saturday. Chelsea’s wedding was a political and media event, not a marriage.

Bubbalot was a heat-seeking missile pointed right at the current occupants of the White House. Barack Obama was not invited for a reason. The Clintons laid down the marker to the self-proclaimed “mongrel” in occupancy at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. We, the Clintons, are the real royalty; you Obamas are not royalty or much of anything else. We don’t need you to legitimize and publicize our “royal wedding.” Stay home. Enjoy the free living at taxpayer expense while you can, sucker.

If anyone should have been invited to the wedding it was Barack Hussein himself. BHO did more to rehabilitate Hillary than anyone, after she ran an abysmal presidential campaign and blew tens of millions of dollars in the process. Obama saw that he needed the Clintons to win, so he quickly buried the hatchet and used them in 2008. Then, following classic Chicago Mafia “rules,” to keep your friends close and your enemies closer, Obama put Hillary in his cabinet.

Barack resuscitated Hillary. He gave her an airplane to fly around the world and billions in largess to distribute to our frenemies.

And Saturday the Clinton’s launched their 2012 presidential campaign to depose Obama and enthrone the Clintons back in the White House. Talk about frenemies.

Hillary Clinton is an extraordinarily bright woman. She no longer has the "street smarts" of a street fighter; she has been in a Bubba bubble too long for that. But she still knows how to scheme. I don’t think she would have gotten to the White House on her own, or to the U. S. Senate, or to Secretary of State, but I respect her intelligence. She has all the public spontaneity of Richard Nixon. But she literally made a pact with the devil when she threw in with Bill, and it has made all the difference. They are a team.

She has lived in “public housing,” from governor's mansions to the White House, most of her adult life. Servants, limos, power, prestige, Bill delivered everything. And more. She and Bubba have a powerful attraction for each other. It’s there. It’s strange, but it’s there.

And she is smart enough to realize Obama is dead meat. I don’t expect a revolution in the streets, but the campaign to remove Obama from the White House in 2012 won’t fall far short. Our economy has been devastated, first by Bush and then Obama. But Obama will catch the blame in 2012. He promised to do better, and he hasn’t. The one leadership quality he could provide, confidence, he hasn’t.

Wars? Don’t ask. Afghanistan is surely “Obama’s War” after the McChrystal defenestration. In Iraq, they can’t even choose a government. These people are going to act civilized once the Americans are gone next year? I expect a bloodbath in Iraq. A big bloodbath. Once again, Obama will get the blame.

We devastated our economy to “liberate” Iraq. Tens of thousands of Americans died and were maimed. But the bloodbath will unfold on Obama’s watch. After he bragged he had transitioned to peace.

I want to be clear that America’s decline and disastrous foreign policy were and are a joint Republican-Democrat effort. But Obama promised to solve the problems, and he is a failed leader. His vaudeville act is in its last days. Bill and Hillary know that.

And so the Clintons decided to stage Chelsea’s “Bubbalot” wedding, to promote the idea she is a “princess,” thereby suggesting, of course, that her parents are the genuine royalty. Since Chelsea has never accomplished anything on her own, other than being the pleasant daughter of wealthy and successful parents, if her wedding was the “wedding of the century” or of even “human history,” the credit for her status must reflect back on mom and dad, not her.

Bubbalot-on-the-Hudson was the lunch of Hillary Clinton’s 2012 presidential camping. Nothing less.

The wedding itself was weird. The only “family” shown in official pictures released to the media was the Clintons. The Mezvinskys were at the event but they were nowhere to be seen in the media. Pictures of the Clintons and Mezvinskys, if they exist (I doubt it) have not been released. Too controversial. Too risky. The wedding was “all Clinton, all the time.”

Eddie Mez was just a prop in the production. That’s because the wedding was a political orchestration, not a wedding event.

Is Chelsea in on the joke? I doubt it.

Two people got married for the greater glory and restoration of Hillary and Bill Clinton. That’s the real story of Bubbalot. The Clintons have used everyone else; why not their daughter?

Lines were drawn at Rhinebeck. The “favored 400” Clinton supporters were identified. All others were told to work harder. Barack Obama was missing, but Vernon Jordan was there. Who he? (Just kidding.) Jordan is the go-to African-American, not Barry Hussein Chicago.

The Kennedys had Camelot. The Clintons now have Bubbalot. Everything was done to excess, over-the-top, gross excess. It was a version of trailer trash does elegance. Did they spend $5 million or $2 million or $1 million on the wedding? Once the Clintons poll on the aftermath and realize their vulgar excesses were counterproductive they will leak that the wedding actually cost a lot less. One thing about Bill and Hillary, they poll and they take action. Damage control is everything. The speculation over the spending was gross. It was enough to make the Bushes look like real royalty by comparison and no, I won’t go there.

Those who remember the Clinton years will remember the term “Clintonesque.” What appeared on the surface during the Clinton presidency never reflected the inner reality of their machinations. Bill and Hillary are one of the most extraordinary “couplings,” apparently without copulating, in political history. I am not sure William Shakespeare could have portrayed them in a play. They are too complex, too loyal to each other and just too “Clintonesque.”

During the 2008 campaign I wrote months of favorable coverage about Hillary. I picked up her option at the nadir of her campaign in January and wrote encouragingly as she started fighting and winning. So, no, I don’t hate the Clintons. The Clintons are great entertainment. Hillary is a Park Ridge (Illinois) girl that made good. What’s not like? Hey, I have a sense of humor.

But Hillary is now running for president, and she used her daughter’s wedding to launch the 2012 campaign.

She and Bill sent the Obama’s a direct message: we are bigger than you, Barack Hussein, we don’t need you to host the wedding of the century, or Bubbalot or Obamalot or whatever. We are the Clinton’s, and you ain’t s—t. So start packing, and get ready to move. The Obamas’ 15 minutes of fame are ending. The countdown has begun for Bubbalot II.

If Americans are dumb enough to vote for the Clintons again, well, American voters are steadily and systematically destroying this great nation. So it might as well be the Clintons in the White House as the Palins.

During the 2008 campaign Hillary was ridiculed for claiming she had Jewish antecedents. Now she has a Jewish son-in-law. Oy vey. Mazel tov. And all that. Ed is a nice kid. He’ll do what he’s told. The kids will probably pop out a grandchild for the campaign.

After Bill, I probably know Hillary as well as anyone. I’ve seen this script before. I’m in on the joke.

Bubbalot. It was all very Clintonesque. Now wait for the official campaign to begin. You heard it first at ContrarianCommentary.com.

Footnote: on the same day (today, Sunday) that the New York Times carried the news of the Bubbalot wedding, the paper also carried a story that Obama is so damaged as a leader, he is going on hiatus for the campaign:

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/01/us/
politics/01obama.html?hp

Or as Glenn Beck would say, “Pay attention, America.”

Hillary and Bill see what’s happening. Obama’s slowly bleeding to death. She’s out and running. Bubbalot was her launching pad, a “soft” rollout of the 2012 campaign.
