U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin calls Max Baucus a “habitual sex offender” and the Democratic Party’s latest answer to pedophile and former U. S. Rep. Mark Foley. Martin compares Baucus’ latest girlfriend to former congressional assistant Elizabeth Ray, who received a job for providing sexual favors to Congressman Wayne Hays. Martin says “The Department of Justice cannot investigate itself in this scandal; immediate appointment of an independent prosecutor is essential. Max Baucus may be the Democrats’ answer to the infidelities of Tiger Woods. We need an impartial investigation to find out.”

Martin says the evidence is inescapable that Senator Max Baucus, a man with a history of sexual harassment, corrupted the Department of Justice to provide a job for his latest paramour

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS
ANNOUNCEMENT OF SATURDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
Andy Martin says that Max Baucus dishonors the U. S. Senate and should resign
Martin says that Baucus’ finding a job for his current paramour at the Department of Justice converts that agency into a personal dumping round for congressional sex addicts
Andy Martin returns to his “roots” as a congressional corruption fighter
(CHICAGO)(December 5, 2009) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Saturday, December 5th to demand that Senator Max Baucus resign as a U. S. Senator because of Baucus’ efforts to (i) initially appoint his lover as U.S. Attorney for Montana and (ii) later use of the Department of Justice in Washington as a dumping ground for his current sexual liaison.
“Max Baucus is a ‘sex addict,’” Martin will charge. “He has previously been accused of sexual harassment. He appears to be guilty of marital infidelity; we are searching for the divorce files. He first tried to get his latest lover appointed as part of the Department of Justice in Montana, as U.S. Attorney. When their sexual thirst could not be slaked with occasional trysts, he got his lover a job in Washington at—no surprise—the Department of Justice.
“Baucus has disgraced, and is continuing to disgrace, the U. S. Senate.
“I am no puritan when it comes to private conduct between eligible and consenting adults. But Baucus is a sexual predator who was previously accused of sexual harassment when his demands were rejected. He is currently playing house with his former staff member. As for his marital vows, Baucus ignores them. Max Baucus: the ‘Tiger Woods of the U. S. Senate.’
“Baucus used his power to foist his sex partner on the people of Montana as a nominee for U. S. Attorney; that was disgraceful. And when he found he wanted more sex than he could obtain on a long distance basis, he dumped his lady love in the Department of Justice in Washington.
“Baucus’ arrogance and corruption of the public trust is outrageous. As a corruption fighter, I find Baucus’ behavior despicable. As a candidate for U. S. Senator, I pledge to do my best to fight moral and political corruption in both parties.
“Unfortunately, Attorney General Eric Holder cannot investigate his own agency. Baucus’ ‘squeeze’ works for Holder. The American people demand that Baucusgate be investigated by a totally independent prosecutor who can look into the details of what Baucus and his ladies have been doing. Eric Holder may even be implicated in Baucusgate. Holder may have facilitated a sexual favor for a political favor.
“Is this the ‘change we can believe in’ that Obama brought to Washington? The U. S. Senate has been defiled into a ‘hot sheet pad.’ For someone who has been repulsed by the immorality of Washington since I first went there, Baucusgate looks more like Wilber Mills (Democrat) and Fanne Fox, or Wayne Hays (Democrat) and Elizabeth Ray or Newt Gingrich (Republican) and his latest wife.
“Over thirty years ago I helped battle Congressman Wayne Hays after he used his office as a bordello. I haven’t even won the primary yet, and I am already back fighting the abuses of incumbent officials. We need to end the arrogance of power in Washington that is destroying our government. I will do the job. I have proven I am capable of fighting these political hucksters.
“If Max Baucus wants to treat women as his sexual playthings he should play on his own dime and on his own time,” Martin will state.

Sarah Palin joins Andy Martin in Obama birth certificate quest
U.S. Senate candidate Andy Martin prepares to host the Second Annual Conference on Barack Obama’s missing birth certificate, in New York December 18-19. Mainstream media continue to lie to the American people about Barack Obama’s “original” birth certificate.

Sarah Palin joins the call for Obama to release his original Hawai’i birth certificate
Huffington Post, Politico, Ben Smith, Jed Lewison continue to lie to the American people
Sarah Palin and Andy Martin are not “birthers”
National conference set for New York City December 18-19
(NEW YORK)(December 4, 2009) Timing is everything. Earlier this week we formally announced the Second National Conference on Barack Obama’s Missing Birth Certificate and school records. As if on cue, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin endorsed our view that Obama should release his original birth certificate: http://www.dailykos.com/tv/w/002387/
Predictably, the mainstream media have launched attacks on Palin, using their same old lies about Barack Obama.
Ben Smith and Jed Lewison of Huffington Post (and Politico.com?) falsely claim that “FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate.” That is a bald-faced lie:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/
2009/12/03/palin-goes-birther-
obama_n_379634.html
FACT: Obama’s ORIGINAL Hawai’i birth certificate has never been seen by FactCheck.Org or anyone else except possibly Dr. Chiyome Fukino of the State of Hawai’i Health Department. What Smith, Lewison and FactCheck.org saw is a laser print-out of information contained in a computer database. Nothing more. Why do these “journalists” keep lying to the public and claiming a print-out is a “copy?” Why? Whose cause are they really serving with their lies?
FACT: Neither Sarah Palin nor I are “birthers.” “Birther" is a term that the bogus media have invented to disparage persons who make legitimate inquiries about Obama’s origins in Hawai'i.
I have conducted on the scene scholarly research about Obama’s roots in Hawai’i. Our new movie could be released as early as next week: “Obama: The Hawai’i Years.”
What I have asked Hawai’i officials to do is produce their original “ribbon” copy of Obama’s 1961 birth certificate. (For those of you not old enough to know what a “ribbon copy” is, ancient devices known as "typewriters" used “ribbons” to make impressions on paper. Cormac McCarthy’s original 1963 typewriter is about to be auctioned as an antique. The original copy of a document, i.e. the one which the typewriter ribbon actually touched, was known as the “ribbon copy.”)
Hawai’i officials have never released Obama’s ribbon copy of his birth certificate, despite many demands, lawsuits, etc. I am continuing my litigation for access. Because I am currently a candidate for U. S. Senator [www.AndyforUSSenator.com], I was unable to actively pursue the litigation in August-November, but we are gearing up to go back to Hawai’i to pry loose the original, 1961 document once funds are available.
FactCheck.org does not claim that the bogus “original” they saw is in fact the 1961 document, or that their “document” is a photocopy of the original typewritten 1961 piece of paper. On its face the document purports to be nothing more than a database printout. Is this print-out a “legal” document? Yes, it is. But it is not a copy of Obama’s original birth record.
What is the significance of the missing document? The laser-printed output contains significantly less birth information than the original typewritten 1961 certificate.
So where do Sarah Palin and I on the one hand, and “birthers” differ? I have never stated that Obama was born anywhere but Hawai’i; nor, to the best of my knowledge has Governor Palin. We just want to review the original 1961 Hawai'i document to see what information Obama has concealed. It is a perfectly reasonable request to examine the original document because, love him or hate him, Obama is a figure in American history and his original birth document is a historical archive.
“Birthers,” on the other hand, have proffered wild claims that Obama was born in Kenya, or elsewhere. I have looked into these accusations and found no evidence to support them. No one has ever produced any credible or legally admissible evidence to sustain these claims. Bogus media, however like to clump everyone who wants access to Obama’s Hawai’i records as a “birther,” so they can tar and feather us with the antics of kooks such as Orly Taitz, Phil Berg and similar bunkum artists.
There is absolutely no connection between demands that Obama authorize release of what he claims is his original 1961 document and the entirely separate “birther” movement.
QUESTION: If Obama has nothing to hide, why is he still hiding the 1961 original? All he has to do is call Fukino and say “release it.”
Finally, I am gratified that both in her bestselling book and in her comments this week, Governor Palin has endorsed my efforts in 2008 to lay the unpleasant truths about Barack Obama before the American people:

=annotation_259119&feature=iv
After taking advantage of my expertise, Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch attacked me without any basis to do so, in a mendacious attempt to grovel before Obama & Co. Murdoch has never apologized for his malignant behavior. But I have been vindicated by history.
My Fox news comments clearly predicted where Obama would lead this nation, and my appearance on Hannity's America became the single-most controversial TV moment in the entire 2008 presidential campaign, precisely because I “connected the dots" about Obama for a national TV audience.
Due to a seasonal lull in politics, on December 17th I will be heading to New York to prepare for the National Conference on Obama December 18-19th. Please go to our blog to register:

Andy Martin on “The Obama Implosion” in Afghanistan
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Barack Obama’s Afghanistan “policy” is a “political agenda, not a military agenda”
Martin says Obama is going to waste tens of billions of dollars and endanger American lives, all to accomplish nothing

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin says Barack Obama’s “surge” in Afghanistan is a political agenda, not a military blueprint
(CHICAGO)(December 2, 2009) The Obama “implosion” has begun. After laboring mightily for months, Barack Obama has brought forth a “mouse” of an Afghanistan “policy.” Obama’s approach is not just mistaken; it is monstrously wrong and flies in the face of decades of military experience with counterinsurgency.
What Obama has produced is not a military policy but rather a political timetable to immunize himself from a liberal challenger in the 2012 primary election process. Obama would start “withdrawing” in Afghanistan just as candidates start filing for the 2012 presidential primaries.
In my book, “Obama: the Man behind The Mask,” I assembled a psychological profile of Obama. My conclusion was that under stress, Obama would eventually crack. He’s cracked.
Sending thirty thousand men and women to Afghanistan for 18 months, supporting them with tens of billions of dollars borrowed from China, and then arbitrarily withdrawing them is not just wrong, it’s damn wrong.
If I were advising the Taliban, I’d say “Go on vacation and come back in 24 months. The Americans will be gone and we can take over the country with a minimum of military action.”
My 2007 psychological profile predicted that Obama was capable of retreating into and living in his own delusional world. Obama seems to think his “speech” is going to make Al Qaeda and the Taliban do what he wants, not what they want.
Tuesday night Obama said “our resolve [is] unwavering.” Unwavering for 18 months that is. Then he “unwaivers” us right out of the country. A great guy to have on your side.
Obama’s “policy” is built on the fiction that our men and women can create a viable Afghan military force in 18 months. He further pretends he can “secure” population centers and build confidence in the central government.
What does president Barry O think Afghans are? Morons? They may not be educated, but they are not stupid. They are not so dumb they are going to give their loyalty to a military program that has already announced in advance that the protective force is leaving in 18 months. Americans may have been dumb enough to vote for Obama. I predict Afghans are a lot smarter than Americans. They are going to “vote” with their feet, and avoid Obama’s protection.
The unstable situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan is a threat to the United States. We have legitimate interests there to protect. But why do we have to take on the whole load? What happened to Obama’s buddies in Europe? They left the table when the waiter left the tab. They left the bill for Obama to pay. Hs “friends” were very fleeting in their "support" of their savior.
Some Republicans will grasp at straws and suggest the 18-month surge will work. Don’t be fooled. Pseudo military types such as Mark Kirk may look at public opinion and decide to say “rah, rah” if Kirk thinks it will bring him votes in February. Kirk is a bogus military man who has been pretending for years, decades indeed, to be an “intelligence" officer and “warrior.” He is neither. Kirk’s record on military matters is a disaster, an embarrassment, an utter failure.
But this is one time when politics should be out of the question.
I am saddened to say that this is one time radical liberal Michael Moore has the better of the argument. Obama is going to make Joe Biden look wise by comparison. In 18 months, when the roof caves in and Afghanistan collapses, Obama’s opponents are going to look like wise men.
The “surge” in Iraq and the surge in Afghanistan are fundamentally different. George Bush committed more men, but he did so without a rigid timetable for withdrawal. Moreover the years of American occupation had given the United States working control of Iraq. Finally, Iraq did have a military tradition and cadre of soldiers who had actually been part of organized units. In other words, when Bush “surged,” he was surging into a vastly different situation than Afghanistan.
In Iraq, Saddam was the enemy. In Afghanistan, we are the enemy. We are propping up the corrupt dictatorship of Hamid Karzai.
Americans are tired of war in Afghanistan? What do we think Afghans feel? They are not tired? Of course they are. Afghans are going to see the 18-month surge as nothing more than the death rattle of the Bush-Obama policy. They will hunker down and hold on for 18 months, when Obama cuts and runs on the eve of the primary election season for 2012.
We can now see the consistent pattern in Obama foreign policy: where Obama confronts strength, such as in China, he projects weakness. Where Obama thinks he can project “strength,” he untimely imposes weakness on our strategy.
Military men are trained to work with a “can do” attitude so they will try to make Obama’s harebrained scheme work. But the Obama “plan” is dead-on-arrival in Afghanistan, with Afghans.
Here’s how we can save tens of billions of dollars.
First, stop the insanity of sending an army twenty thousand miles to the end of the world, only to recall the force in 18 months. That’s just plain stupid.
Second, acknowledge that we messed up in Afghanistan.
Third, tell Karzai he should train his own forces and protect his own cities: now, not in 18 months. Why is it that Afghans have been the “graveyard of empires” but suddenly they are helpless children that can’t defend their own land from internal enemies?
Fourth, transition expeditiously to a CIA/Special operations-based approach to resolving issues in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Fifth, work towards bipartisan support for a new paradigm in our war against terror.
Republicans? This is not 1994. This is 1996. Obama is wandering into a war he can’t understand and can’t control, and it is going to blow up in his face, the same way Viet-Nam decimated the Democrats in 1966 and led to election of a Republican president two years later.
Democrats in Congress are not stupid. They know Obama is signing their political death arrant with his crazy “policy” in Afghanistan.
Obama is about to fight a war on terror all right, a real war on terror, a war on terror waged by his own party against the Obama battle strategy in Afghanistan. My bet: Congress wins and Obama loses, even if the congress grudgingly votes to provide additional funds on a very temporary basis.
BOTTOM LINE: Obama’s policy is no policy at all. He has announced a strategy for surrender, and he is trying to mask his surrender in a “surge” that is nothing of the sort. Better to keep the men and women home, and avoid borrowing money from China for a goofy expedition in Afghanistan.
It’s a sad day for this country when Michael Moore and Joe Biden make more sense than the man in the White House. But they do. There is no way the civilian population of Afghanistan is going to rally to the American side with advance notice than we are departing in 18 months. How dumb does Obama think Afghans are? As dumb as the Americans that voted to make him “Surrender In Chief?”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin says Barack Obama’s “surge” in Afghanistan is a political agenda, not a military blueprint
(CHICAGO)(December 2, 2009) The Obama “implosion” has begun. After laboring mightily for months, Barack Obama has brought forth a “mouse” of an Afghanistan “policy.” Obama’s approach is not just mistaken; it is monstrously wrong and flies in the face of decades of military experience with counterinsurgency.
What Obama has produced is not a military policy but rather a political timetable to immunize himself from a liberal challenger in the 2012 primary election process. Obama would start “withdrawing” in Afghanistan just as candidates start filing for the 2012 presidential primaries.
In my book, “Obama: the Man behind The Mask,” I assembled a psychological profile of Obama. My conclusion was that under stress, Obama would eventually crack. He’s cracked.
Sending thirty thousand men and women to Afghanistan for 18 months, supporting them with tens of billions of dollars borrowed from China, and then arbitrarily withdrawing them is not just wrong, it’s damn wrong.
If I were advising the Taliban, I’d say “Go on vacation and come back in 24 months. The Americans will be gone and we can take over the country with a minimum of military action.”
My 2007 psychological profile predicted that Obama was capable of retreating into and living in his own delusional world. Obama seems to think his “speech” is going to make Al Qaeda and the Taliban do what he wants, not what they want.
Tuesday night Obama said “our resolve [is] unwavering.” Unwavering for 18 months that is. Then he “unwaivers” us right out of the country. A great guy to have on your side.
Obama’s “policy” is built on the fiction that our men and women can create a viable Afghan military force in 18 months. He further pretends he can “secure” population centers and build confidence in the central government.
What does president Barry O think Afghans are? Morons? They may not be educated, but they are not stupid. They are not so dumb they are going to give their loyalty to a military program that has already announced in advance that the protective force is leaving in 18 months. Americans may have been dumb enough to vote for Obama. I predict Afghans are a lot smarter than Americans. They are going to “vote” with their feet, and avoid Obama’s protection.
The unstable situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan is a threat to the United States. We have legitimate interests there to protect. But why do we have to take on the whole load? What happened to Obama’s buddies in Europe? They left the table when the waiter left the tab. They left the bill for Obama to pay. Hs “friends” were very fleeting in their "support" of their savior.
Some Republicans will grasp at straws and suggest the 18-month surge will work. Don’t be fooled. Pseudo military types such as Mark Kirk may look at public opinion and decide to say “rah, rah” if Kirk thinks it will bring him votes in February. Kirk is a bogus military man who has been pretending for years, decades indeed, to be an “intelligence" officer and “warrior.” He is neither. Kirk’s record on military matters is a disaster, an embarrassment, an utter failure.
But this is one time when politics should be out of the question.
I am saddened to say that this is one time radical liberal Michael Moore has the better of the argument. Obama is going to make Joe Biden look wise by comparison. In 18 months, when the roof caves in and Afghanistan collapses, Obama’s opponents are going to look like wise men.
The “surge” in Iraq and the surge in Afghanistan are fundamentally different. George Bush committed more men, but he did so without a rigid timetable for withdrawal. Moreover the years of American occupation had given the United States working control of Iraq. Finally, Iraq did have a military tradition and cadre of soldiers who had actually been part of organized units. In other words, when Bush “surged,” he was surging into a vastly different situation than Afghanistan.
In Iraq, Saddam was the enemy. In Afghanistan, we are the enemy. We are propping up the corrupt dictatorship of Hamid Karzai.
Americans are tired of war in Afghanistan? What do we think Afghans feel? They are not tired? Of course they are. Afghans are going to see the 18-month surge as nothing more than the death rattle of the Bush-Obama policy. They will hunker down and hold on for 18 months, when Obama cuts and runs on the eve of the primary election season for 2012.
We can now see the consistent pattern in Obama foreign policy: where Obama confronts strength, such as in China, he projects weakness. Where Obama thinks he can project “strength,” he untimely imposes weakness on our strategy.
Military men are trained to work with a “can do” attitude so they will try to make Obama’s harebrained scheme work. But the Obama “plan” is dead-on-arrival in Afghanistan, with Afghans.
Here’s how we can save tens of billions of dollars.
First, stop the insanity of sending an army twenty thousand miles to the end of the world, only to recall the force in 18 months. That’s just plain stupid.
Second, acknowledge that we messed up in Afghanistan.
Third, tell Karzai he should train his own forces and protect his own cities: now, not in 18 months. Why is it that Afghans have been the “graveyard of empires” but suddenly they are helpless children that can’t defend their own land from internal enemies?
Fourth, transition expeditiously to a CIA/Special operations-based approach to resolving issues in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Fifth, work towards bipartisan support for a new paradigm in our war against terror.
Republicans? This is not 1994. This is 1996. Obama is wandering into a war he can’t understand and can’t control, and it is going to blow up in his face, the same way Viet-Nam decimated the Democrats in 1966 and led to election of a Republican president two years later.
Democrats in Congress are not stupid. They know Obama is signing their political death arrant with his crazy “policy” in Afghanistan.
Obama is about to fight a war on terror all right, a real war on terror, a war on terror waged by his own party against the Obama battle strategy in Afghanistan. My bet: Congress wins and Obama loses, even if the congress grudgingly votes to provide additional funds on a very temporary basis.
BOTTOM LINE: Obama’s policy is no policy at all. He has announced a strategy for surrender, and he is trying to mask his surrender in a “surge” that is nothing of the sort. Better to keep the men and women home, and avoid borrowing money from China for a goofy expedition in Afghanistan.
It’s a sad day for this country when Michael Moore and Joe Biden make more sense than the man in the White House. But they do. There is no way the civilian population of Afghanistan is going to rally to the American side with advance notice than we are departing in 18 months. How dumb does Obama think Afghans are? As dumb as the Americans that voted to make him “Surrender In Chief?”
A PERSONAL NOTE: I first went to Afghanistan over thirty years ago, entering western Afghanistan from Mesahd, Iran and linking up with the anti-Soviet mujahadeen.
A SCARY CLOSING NOTE: It’s a good thing Obama was not in command of World War II. Obama’s policy would have been to land on D-Day, and then immediately announce we would also start withdrawing in a few months. The Third Reich would still be in power today if Obama had been in the White House in 1944.

Obama author Andy Martin launches fund appeal to support historical research into Barack Obama’s family history
Second National Conference on Barack Obama's Missing Birth Certificate and College Records

Dear Friends:
It has been nearly six months since we have had to solicit any financial support for our efforts. The Committee’s financial resources are once again depleted.
Here is what we need:
Second National Conference:
We are convening a Second National Conference on Barack Obama’s missing birth certificate and missing high school/college/law school records. We estimate that the cost of producing the conference will be approximately $2,000, covering space rental, videotaping (for Internet posting), editing, etc. If you can contribute financially to helping us run a successful conference, please do. If you can also attend, more’s the better.
“Obama: The Hawai’i Years”:
Our short film “Obama: The Hawai’i Years” is almost ready to view. We plan to release it before the National Conference in December. We are still short of money to complete the project and are running in a deficit situation. We need $7,500 to finish the project. If we receive $10,000 we will be able to afford to post the entire film on the Internet unedited, instead of posting it on YouTube in short segments.
In the film we ask the questions that we have asked in the past, as well as making new inquiries. We offer some new, expanded answers. And we do so with pictures of Hawai’i and Obama’s early years. And, finally, we point to the unanswered questions about Barack Obama’s family history.
Even though I am very knowledgeable about Obama’s past, actually producing the script and going to Honolulu to shoot the film helped me to probe deeper into the mysteries surrounding the man. Obama’s opaque “roots” are not something that can be deciphered in one pass.
We need your financial support to do justice to the historical research we are conducting and producing.
Unlike some of Obama’s critics, I have been scrupulously honorable and honest in seeking only the truth about him, and trying to find only the facts about his past. Because of my passion for the truth and the facts, I seem to get under Obama’s skin, whereas his critics who float unsustainable theories are ignored. Obama wants to hide the truth; help us in our search for the facts.
Please help support these projects financially.
Please note that all contributions to the conference/film should be made through the Committee of One Million web site (www.committeeofonemilliontodefeatbarackobama.com), NOT through my U. S. Senate campaign web site (www.AndyforUSSenator.com). We keep completely separate records.
Please feel free to call if you have any questions.
I know I can count on you to make a contribution that supports our historical research.
Faithfully,
ANDY MARTIN

Dear Friends:
The “Second National Conference on Barack Obama’s Missing Birth Certificate and College Records” is taking shape. Here is our first update.
Because I have always limited myself to searching for the truth and finding the facts about Barack Obama, I enjoy worldwide credibility as the first investigative scholar on Barack Obama’s early years. I believe it is inappropriate to attack Obama with anything less than the facts and truth. My book on Barack Obama, “Obama: The Man Behind The Mask” continues to sell on Amazon.com and through the publisher OrangeStatePress.com because it is an attempt to get at the truth behind Barack Obama.
As all of you know, I am currently a Republican candidate for United States Senator in the February 2, 2010 Illinois primary. During the past several months I have devoted 100% of my time to the campaign. On December 28th we will be “full-time” on the campaign once again. But there is a brief period in mid-December when we can meet to discuss Obama developments.
I know that all of you want to discuss and review developments in 2009 concerning Obama’s birth and high school/college/law school records. So we are organizing a Second Conference for December 19-19 in New York City. Obama continues to refuse to release his original typewritten 1961 Hawai’i birth certificate. He refuses to release any of his Punahou School (Honolulu private school) records, his Occidental College records, his Columbia University records or his Harvard Law School records. Obama’s says “trust me;” do you?
1. Location
The conference will be held in New York City December 18-19. We plan a Friday evening session, 7-9:00 P.M. December 18th, and a Saturday morning afternoon session December 19th. The conference will be videotaped for broadcast on the Internet. We are scouting for a meeting location in midtown Manhattan.
Obama saboteurs stole the tapes of our first National Conference in Washington, DC. We will ensure they do not steal the tapes of this meeting. For some reason, Obama and his associates are terrified of the investigative work we do on his personal history. What is he hiding? What doesn’t he want us to find out?
2. Hawai’i freedom of information materials
We received a very generous grant to cover the costs of paying the State of Hawai’i for freedom-of-information materials. Unfortunately, those materials did not arrive in time for our first National Conference. We are reviewing the materials for our New York meeting.
3. Conference Registration fee and ID requirement
As always, we need some advance indication of how large the attending group could be to make space-planning decisions. Therefore, we have added a nominal $35 advance registration fee which covers both sessions. The door charge will be $50 to attend one or both meetings. Please fill out the attendance form and mail it back with the $35 to arrive in New York before December 16th. Please include a copy of a photo ID so we can confirm your identity when you arrive at the conference. (The late fee will be $50 cash only “at the door” with a photo ID.) Once we know how many to plan for, we can work out how formal or informal to be.
We are currently scouting midtown meeting options in Manhattan. We will notify you by e-mail as soon as we choose a location. You can also follow developments on our blog.
4. Conference agenda
In the near future you will be receiving the first draft of our proposed agenda. You are invited to begin submitting suggestions, comments and proposals for any future revisions.
We do have a big “surprise” planned for the conference, of course. That will be revealed at the Saturday morning session.
5. All are welcome—but please bring evidence, not illusions
Anyone is welcome to register and attend our conference. But please, if you want to express a theory, bring some rational, tangible evidence to support your claims about Mr. Obama. Those of you who know me know I am committed to working only with accurate information and, as we lawyers say, “reasonable inferences drawn from the available facts or available documentation.”
Pie-in-the-sky will not fly. Hucksters who use bogus documents to obtain anti-Obama publicity only undermine legitimate inquiries into Obama’s opaque past. We need to search for the truth and look for the facts.
6. Security
We will have adequate arrangements for security in case Obama’s desperate sycophants try to disrupt us again.
7. Media
Media are welcome, but we would suggest you let us know in advance. We will be providing twitter.com updates during the conference (twitter.com/AndyMartinUSA).
8. Visitors to New York City
Just a reminder: December 18-19 is a pre-holiday weekend in New York. If you plan to stay overnight, we suggest you make early plans. A good place to look for affordable lodging is Queens.
We will be issuing updates of this letter, so please feel free to make suggestions.
And please also remember we operate on a shoestring, so contribute any shoestrings you can afford. We are going to issue a separate fundraising letter.
With best wishes,
ANDY MARTIN

Dear Senator DeMint:
On October 16th I sent you a letter outlining the respective qualifications of Patrick Hughes and myself. A week later you issued an incomplete and misleading newsletter (November 21, 2009) claiming no one but Hughes had asked for your support.
One of the problems with Beltway “conservatives” is that they act very “liberal” with the truth. If you are going to try to rig an endorsement, please don’t try to mislead your nationwide supporters with half-truths and incomplete information.
First, since you have not responded to my letter, you are apparently not meeting with other candidates. How can you make an informed, intelligent decision without knowing all of the options?
Second, in your “newsletter” you state Hughes’ “issues” as though the man has discovered something. All of the Republican Party primary candidates with the exception of Mark Kirk support the same issues (actually, even Kirk belatedly claims to support them). Hughes’ “issues” are nothing more than a list of talking points that he recites as a parrot. If everyone supports the same issues, “issues” are not a basis to highlight one candidate over another.
Mr. Hughes has a serious problem with the truth. He lied about his support by Mike Ditka, he lied about his financial “commitments,” he lied about his record as an attorney and he has sought to proceed by surreptitiously filing challenges against other candidates. Mr. Kirk is a liar. But why would you back another liar to oppose him? Why not back the truth?
Hughes claims to be a “real estate developer.” The only major project identified with him never put a shovel in the ground and triggered litigation. He claimed to act as a “general counsel” for a de facto bankrupt real estate firm at a time when he had voluntarily suspended his law license. Are these the kinds of fraudulent acts and issues you want to endorse in a primary?
Hughes may have remodeled a few kitchens and baths, and sold “fixer-uppers” at a profit. That does not make him a “real estate developer.” Have you actually reviewed and evaluated a project list of Hughes’ developments? Of course not. That list doesn’t exist.
Mr. Hughes never voted in a Republican primary before 2008. He has issued responses that argue he has voted copiously, but no one has ever seen any backup for his claims. Have you? If he can’t document his voting record for local Republicans, why would you support him?
Hughes is a forty year-old man with a blank slate when it comes to public involvement. He claims that earlier this year he had a vision he should be a senator, paid a few thousand dollars to set up an anti-tax committee, and overnight became a national figure. I don’t think so. Most candidates who have no public and no political experience turn out to be disasters. There may be exceptions to the rule, but the rule is that “no public experience, no political experience,” equals no experience for statewide office. Hughes is no exception.
Oh, I forgot to mention: Hughes has issued bogus polls. He wins his own polls, naturally. But Hughes leaves my name out of his polls. I wonder why? Maybe because both Kirk and Hughes are afraid to list my name in their polls. I beat both of them. Is your PAC staff so gullible that they believe bogus polls?
The Illinois primary is the first election of the 2010 cycle. If you back a loser in that race your “brand” is going to be both tarnished and embarrassed. Don’t get too full of yourself.
Have you asked Hughes if he has a media plan? (My own campaign announced last Saturday that this week we are beginning media production.)
I have over forty years of political experience, so please allow me to give you some advice. Hughes is a loser. He is being promoted by someone (D. Paul Caprio) who uses politics to plunder the process for his own financial gain. So be careful. I assume Hughes got to you through Tom Coburn, who in turn is linked to Caprio. Coburn needs to have his head examined for hanging around a sleaze ball like Caprio.
Ironically, one of Hughes major supporters, Jack Roeser, made it a condition of his support that Caprio be removed from the Hughes campaign. Caprio still slithers around, but he has no official role in deference to Roeser’s demand. Call and ask Jack Roeser what he thinks of Caprio & Co. It might be an eye-opener.
ABC Channel 7 is scheduling a candidates’ debate. I suggest you hold up support for any candidate until you see them perform on the Channel 7 debate early in January. If after seeing him go up against Kirk and me, you still like Hughes, be my guest. Have at it and support him. My guess is you will not be happy with Hughes’ performance and will be glad you took my advice.
The American people are enraged and outraged that Barack Obama sits in the White House. I am the only candidate with a record of standing up to Obama. People want someone in office they can trust to fight the Obama agenda. With no experience and no record of standing up for anything but his own self-interest, only a fool would take Pat Hughes seriously. What does that say about your staff?
I don’t like Mark Kirk’s record and believe he can and should be defeated. But you are backing a dead horse if you are trying to send a rookie like Hughes up against pros like Kirk or me. Be real.
Respectfully submitted,
ANDY MARTIN

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin “gets the blood flowing” with a “red meat” speech to a conservative audience
Martin ridicules his “conservative” opponents’ complete lack of national experience
(SPRINGFIELD, IL)(November 22, 2009) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin was the lead off speaker at a forum of U. S. Senate candidates Saturday evening in Springfield. The forum was held at the I Worship Church and attracted conservative Tea Party/9-12 activists from the central part of the state.
Earlier Saturday afternoon Martin held a news conference and offered the first installment of his media strategy to defeat Mark Kirk. Martin announced that he planned to start purchasing advertising the first week of December if fund raising produced resources for a media campaign. “We are going on the attack he said.”
Martin ridiculed both Mark Kirk and his other opponents for their mendacity and lack of experience. “I am running again ‘Magic Slate’ and ‘Blank Slate,” Andy said. “As kids we used to play with a board with a plastic cover and a stylus. After you finished writing, you lifted up the plastic cover and erased everything you had written. I call mark Kirk ‘Magic Slate:’ As if by magic Kirk wants to erase his congressional career and pretends he is a red state, good ole boy conservative.
“But my other opponents collectively lack any national experience. If you believe the Pat Hughes story, earlier this year he had a vision and decided to become a U. S. Senator. Where was Hughes last year when we were fighting Obama? Hughes was nowhere to be found. Hughes has no record. He is a ‘blank slate.’
“None of the candidates were fighting Obama in 2008. Now they all claim to be national material. They want to play in the Super Bowl without ever having participated in the regular season.”
Martin was asked the question “Is the Constitution a living document?” He responded with the observation that “The pretender in the White House is trying to kill the Constitution, so it must be alive. If conservatives do not fight back, Obama will kill our Constitution. We must be ready to fight Obama if we want America to survive,” he stated passionately.
Martin said the idea that someone with no experience could simply appear and challenge an experienced candidate such as Kirk was laughable.
Martin’s speech was taped by the debate sponsor.
Martin also unveiled his new brochure:

Fellow Patriots:
America is under attack. Our Constitution, our Military, our Values, our History and Heritage are under attack. In times of crisis, what do we turn to? One word says it all: Experience.
As an Illinois voter, you have a choice. You can support Mark Kirk or you can support me, Andy Martin, a patriot with the experience and ability to defeat Kirk in the Republican primary. Kirk is a cynical professional politician. He has $2 million in “dirty dollars” from Washington lobbyists to fool Illinois voters with false claims and misleading advertising. The liberal Kirk is trying to hide his liberal voting record in Congress by pretending he is a conservative.
I am the only challenger with experience to defeat Kirk in February 2, 2010 primary election. If you agree with me that our Constitution, Values and the very Fiber that has made America great are under attack, then you need to support Kirk’s only experienced opponent; Andy Martin.
I am the only candidate with the experience to rebuild our shattered economy. Obama’s billions for new bonuses on Wall Street, with bankruptcy for Main Street are disgraceful. I am the only candidate with forty years of corruption fighting experience. I have a record you can see, not just campaign promises. Voters will demand a real corruption-fighter as their next senator, a corruption-fighter with foreign policy and military experience that you can see; one with a proven record, not hollow promises.
I have been tested in the media and on the national stage. I have stood up to Barack Obama at a time when Kirk was afraid to. I fought back against Obama’s lies. My experience can be trusted, an experience that no other candidate has.
Ask yourself, when you need a doctor, a lawyer, a military leader or a United States Senator from Illinois, who will you choose? You will choose someone with experience; Andy Martin.
Please, help me defend America from all foreign and domestic enemies. And with your help, we will defeat Kirk in the February 2, 2010 primary and go on to defeat the Daley Machine Democratic candidate in the November 2010 general election.
I ask for your support and your vote in the February 2, 2010 primary. Any effort will be gratefully and truly appreciated.
