Adam Kokesh: An Open Statement Concerning his candidacy

A Statement from Gathering of Eagles | 02/24/2010 | RaceBannon

Kokesh is a thug who tried to shut down a conference at GWU because he opposed allowing David Horowitz ot speak. He is a thug and you are no freedom lover.
Find a non-leftist thug to support.

Let’s see...he disrupted the Republican National Convention in 2008, protests with communists, code pink, etc., encourages troops to desert in Germany, blatantly lied by putting up racist posters and attributing them to a conservative campus group, among other outrageous, indefensible behavior. And his less than honorable discharge was for inappropriate use of the uniform and cursing out an officer, not what you have stated. Get your facts straight, Joe.

Adam Kokesh got Marines killed in Iraq through his work

Really...what info do you have on this?

George Washington and Thomas Jefferson for sharing Ron Paul'

"One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just doesn't belong..."

George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were not alive to know nuclear weapons, satellite technology, bio weapons, chem weapons, air travel, cell phone technology, plastic explosives...

...among other outrageous, indefensible behavior

I don't believe I ever said he didn't do those things.

And his less than honorable discharge was for inappropriate use of the uniform and cursing out an officer, not what you have stated. Get your facts straight, Joe

Yes, I was in error as to why his discharge was downgraded - a fairly minor error. I guess I owe him an apology for leading anyone to think that he didn't deserve an honorable discharge for his conduct during his enlistment, which would have been the case if his discharge was downgraded for the reason I originally stated.

You make a much bigger error, however... his honorable discharge was downgraded to General Under Honorable Conditions.

Get your facts straight, Republican Wildcat.

I don't like his misuse of the uniform any more than you... probably less so, since that was my uniform a long time ago.

As to his other actions, I may not agree with the method, but I agree with the purpose behind his actions - ending a stupid, counterproductive, criminal war, one that makes this nation weaker and less safe every second it continues.

The IVAW was part of the World Tribunal on Iraq. The Tribunal explicitly endorsed the terrorists killing our troops in Iraq.

Kokesh and IVAW worked with groups that worked with the terrorists in Iraq, like Code Pink and ANSWER.
