Ping!

[usmcobra]

Do you know how they discovered he brought back an illegal weapon from Iraq?

He got caught with it on a University Campus.

Adam Kokesh is a Charles Whitman in waiting.

[ETL]

Kokesh called for help from Veterans For Peace with an upcoming antiwar "die-in" in Washington, D.C.

"anti-war", my arse! These people aren't "anti-war". They're pro-communist, anti-Capitalist, anti-US military! They love war and violence when it involves a communist overthrow or revolt. Their heroes are monsters like Mao, Che, Castro and Stalin!

[Sergeant Tim]

I know that yet could not locate the link I have to support it. If you have it, please add it as a comment.

[ETL]

"Veterans For Peace" is closely linked with the Stalinist Workers World Party!

Here are some other so-called "anti-war" activists...

Cindy Sheehan, Jodie Evans, Hugo Chavez,
Medea Benjamin [co-founder Code Pink]

Code Pink 'Bundles' for Barack, 4/14/2008

"The co-founder of the radical anti-war group Code Pink [Jodie Evans] has “bundled” more than $50,000 for Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, and pro-troops groups are demanding that he return the money."

Chavez Vows To 'Stand By Iran'
After Oil Talks In Tehran, Venezuelan Leader Called 'Brother' By Ahmedinejad

"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other. Chavez is a source of a progressive and revolutionary current in South America and his stance in restricting imperialism is tangible.'":

[Sergeant Tim]

I know. I was there. The photo linked to the “dead” I took.

[OCCASparky]

Jonn, TSO, and the rest of the gang at This Ain’t Hell have done yeoman’s work in pointing out the sheer volume of evidence that this guy shouldn’t even be elected dogcather in Bloomfield, let alone be the GOP nominee for the 3rd CD seat. He can TRY to pull the wool over the eyes of the powers that be in the NM GOP, but as a former Farmington resident, I can tell you from conversations I’ve had with folks there that they’re not buying it.

[Sergeant Tim]

Jonn was extremely helpful and supportive in putting together this post.

[ETL]

I’m just getting tired of these traitors always being portrayed as being “anti-war”, as if they are pacifists opposed to violence and bloodshed when they are anything but.

Thanks a million for your brave and honorable service!

[Tijeras_Slim]

The author has a poor grasp of Northern New Mexico politics. It’s a perennial Dim stronghold, and Lujan is the son of the NM Speaker of the House, so the patronage is in place.

Kokesh hasn’t made much of a blip on the local political radar except as being one of those “characters” NM produces... and is pretty much being ignored except in small liberal bastions (like the UNM area, which isn’t in the 3rd district)

I’m surprised by the amount of print he’s been getting outside NM. His chances of having much of an effect on the race are about zero IMO.

I met this clown and his merry band of cowards in Kennebunk,Maine back in ‘07. They led ANSWER’s march on Bush’s house. When they crested a ridge on the parade route to see our banner “TRAITORS GO TO HELL”, he went ape-sh*t. He charged a small senior veteran and tried to intimidate him. The old man stood his ground. Fortunately the Kennebunk Police Chief was 20 yards away and defused the situation.

But here's other evidence of his speaking at the event:

"Among the many speakers were elected representatives—U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel and New York City Council members Charles Barron and Margarita Lopez—who have bucked their party to come out against the war. Barron has also introduced a Troops Out Now resolution in the City Council."--Workers World Party

What's the population of Santa Fe now?

I went to the College of Santa Fe back in the 60’s when it was called St Michael's and had no women.

[ETL]

I met this clown and his merry band of cowards in Kennebunk,Maine back in ‘07. They led ANSWER’s march on Bush’s house.

ANSWER, of course, was formed by the Workers World Party and Ramsey Clark's International Action Center. Their latest "anti-war" front group is "Troops Out Now". ANSWER is now officially controlled by "The Party for Socialism and Liberation". The PSL is an offshoot of WWP.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Probably around 150-160K. The College of Santa Fe closed temporarily last year due to budget issues, it’s back up and running on a limited basis.

It’s pretty much gone the the way of most small colleges in liberal towns.

[OCCASparky]

Bingo, Tijeras. There’s a few folks in San Juan County who might care about Kokesh, but those are fairly few, considering Mullins is also from that area, IIRC. Yeah, when most of 3rd CD includes places like Taos and Santa Fe, even Farmington’s conservative bent isn’t going to come anywhere near overcoming that. Bill Redmond was the last Republican to hold that seat, and IIRC, that was only for one term. Before that was Richardson, if that tells people outside NM anything.

[usmcobra]

Here is the best I can find, apparently it happened after he confessed to putting up racist posters to slander (libel) conservative groups at George Washington University, possibly leading campus police to search his car.

Which to me seems odd unto itself, I thought DC had gun control laws at the time....

[Sergeant Tim]

I know who both Lujan’s and Kokesh’s fathers are. No offense, yet you need to look at that poll again.

Between Paul’s magic money machine and daddy, Kokesh will have campaign cash through Election Day. Kokesh is a anarchist leftist so he stills wins if Mullins loses on November 2. He’ll make a difference in the race if enough grass roots New Mexicans remain fooled.

[Tijeras_Slim]

I don’t see Kokesh playing well in Tierra Amarilla unless he gets the Reyes Tijerina endorsement. ;)
