from BlackSpeakers.net:
With a first hand look into the war in Iraq , Marine Lance Cpl. Abdul Henderson, has been actively speaking out against the war. He testified on Capitol Hill on a congressional panel in 2003. He was featured in Michael Moore's movie Fahrenheit 9/11 stating that he would not return to Iraq if his reserve unit was called back to duty. Mr. Henderson has also been featured on radio shows Democracy Now and the Joe Madison Show . In addition, he has appeared on the morning show Good Morning America and was given the political play of the week on CNN's show Inside Politics .
Armed with documents citing outstanding performance and several service medals during his five years as a reservist, the soft-spoken Henderson describes himself as an American Patriot who speaks from the heart.
Mr. Abdul Henderson is standing up for what he believes in, he has a definitive message why everyone should participate in the democratic process. His speech on why Americans should vote has left audiences stunned, invigorated, and ready to take action. With the presidential election around the corner Mr. Henderson's message is a must hear and should not be taken lightly
I wonder if he is going to wear his uniform.

Are you sure you've got your timing right?
Looks like they are expecting at least 10 people to the rally.
Anyone who associates with Moore and spews his idiotic talking points deserve whatever punishment the Marines can dish out.
here is a source link for this

If he's still in the service, isn't this insubordination? Is he Moslem?
With a name like Abdul why am I not surprised?
.308 works wonders on islamo fascist thinking.
What kinds of punishment does the UCMJ have available for this POS?
If this is true, then I should think his commander should order him not to participate.
It's one thing to participate in political matters out of uniform, but it can't be done in uniform, and I should think it would also be improper to do it specifically identifying yourself as a marine. Because that's the whole point, that a marine is a peacenik.
Abdul is likely a Muslim name.
No problem. Send him a bill.
Time for Henderson to assist in some target practice.
Court martial him ....
Is Fort Leavenworth on his speaking tour?
