U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says he will work to remove Kevin Jennings from the U. S. Department of Education. Martin says “Kevin Jennings is not only an affront to family values; he is an affront to human values. Barack Obama’s choice of Kevin Jennings to protect children is disgraceful. Jennings is a sexual predator who has no business being in the federal government.”

ANNOUNCEMENT OF TUESDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
Andy Martin says that as a U. S. Senator he will work to remove Kevin Jennings from the U S Department of Education
Martin says that Barack Obama has created the “sickest” administration in history with sexual predators in sensitive jobs
Martin continues to lambaste his opponent, Liberal Republican and Obama supporter Mark Kirk, who is afraid to call for Jennings’ removal
(CHICAGO)(January 19, 2010) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Tuesday, January 19th to call for the removal of Kevin Jennings from the U. S. Department of Education.
“Barack Obama has the worst judgment of any president in history,” Martin says. “He has staffed his administration with sexual predators such as Kevin Jennings and Peter Orszag.
“What Mr. Jennings does in the privacy of his own home, or other private facilities, is Jennings’ private business. Period. I respect and defend the right to privacy. Consenting adults should be left alone.
“But when Obama appoints a predator such as Jennings to act as a fiduciary for school children, that is a perversion of the public trust.
“Everyone has a right to privacy, no one has a right to claim public employment and advocate policies that endanger children,” Martin states. I will strive to defund his office and eliminate Jennings’ government job.”
Martin will also hold a Tuesday news conference in Rockford, Illinois at 4:00 P.M.

Andy Martin drops new “Bunker Buster” ad on Mark Kirk: Kirk inflates his military service
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin charges that Mark Kirk has inflated and falsified his military records. Martin says Kirk is "double-dipping" by collecting two paychecks for one job. Martin releases a U. S. Navy letter saying the Navy has no records to document Kirk's presence in Kandahar, Afghanistan in 2008. Martin begins a new round of statewide advertising, and says Kirk should release all of his military records since becoming a congressman. Martin compares Kirk’s exaggerated military claims to Hillary Clinton’s false statements she was “under fire” in Bosnia.

Martin has new embarrassments in preparation for Kirk
(CHICAGO)(January 15, 2010) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Friday, January 15th to release his new statewide “Bunker Buster” advertising campaign charging that Mark Kirk appears to have falsified and inflated his military service.
Martin promised to drop a “Bunker Buster” on Kirk at the WLS-TV senate candidates’ debate Thursday evening, and closed by announcing that he had received a letter from the U. S. Navy stating the Navy has no records to document Kirk’s presence in Afghanistan in 2008. Martin released copies of the Navy letter at a post-debate news availability.
Martin compares Kirk to the notorious Wisconsin political fraud U. S. Senator Joe McCarthy, who falsely portrayed himself as “Tail Gunner Joe” to win election. McCarthy had no military record to speak of, and was never a “tail gunner.” McCarthy went on to become notorious for red-baiting and other activity, and gave the name “McCarthyism” to the term.
“Mark Kirk seems to be the latest in a long line of military frauds, the most notorious of which was ‘Tail Gunner Joe,’ Senator Joe McCarthy who terrorized the senate in the 1950’s,” Martin will charge. “The U. S. Navy has no record of Kirk’s ‘deployment’ to Kandahar. I asked Mark Kirk to authorize the release of his military records, and he has refused. It is time for Kirk to release and authorize the Department of Defense to release all military files and records since Kirk became a congressman.
“Kirk appears to be engaging in ‘double-dipping’ payroll fraud. He goes overseas, where he is treated like and acts like a congressman, meeting with senior officials, all while collecting a second paycheck for a ‘deployment’ that is a ‘deployment’ in name only. Kirk times his military excursions to benefit his political campaigns,” Martin charges, “and collects two paychecks for one job. What a Washington beltway fraud. No true Republican and no veteran can vote for a huckster and masquerader like Kirk.”
Martin plans to keep hacking away at Kirk’s endless series of lies, prevarications and exaggerations about Kirk’s personal and military history. The Bunker Buster assembly line remains open.
Martin’s advertising attacks the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times for parroting Kirk’s military propaganda and failing to see actual documentation for Kirk’s service activity.

Mark Kirk called a military imposter
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Mark Kirk “shamelessly exaggerates” his military role. Martin says Kirk tries to dress up congressional visits as “fighting” and “tours of duty.” “Kirk is a complete nut case,” Martin says. “Once again we see the media lying to voters about who Mark Kirk really is. Every veteran should be outraged at the way Mark Kirk tries to make a joke of the chain of command.”
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Mark Kirk is a “military masquerader”
Martin says that news media broadcast Kirk’s lies about his “service” because the media is promoting liberal Republican Kirk

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SPRINGFIELD AND PEORIA NEWS CONFERENCES
FRIDAY, JANUARY 8TH
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin says Mark Kirk exaggerates and misrepresents his military activity and is a disgrace to the U. S. Navy
Martin says junior officers on “duty” do not tell generals how to win wars after a few hours “in country”
(CHICAGO)(January 8, 2010) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold Springfield and Peoria news conferences today, Friday January 8th, to accuse Mark Kirk of being a “military masquerader.”
“Mark Kirk holds a reserve commission in the Navy,” Martin says. “That’s where reality ends and Mark Kirk's lies begin.
“Proof of Kirk’s misrepresentations is hard to come by because he avoids public contact and meets in secret with powerful lobbyists and business interests. But Thursday the curtain was pulled back by NBC News, and the result was shocking:
http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local-beat/
Mark-Kirk-Im-Not-Gay-80906492.html
“When a reserve officer is actually ‘on duty’ or ‘serving a tour of duty,’ as Kirk claims he was, that officer is subject to the strict military chain of command. Any veteran knows that. I hold an Honorable Discharge from the USAF reserves although I was not on active duty. Junior officers know their place.
“What does Kirk say he did in Afghanistan? According to NBC News, Kirk says he ‘came up with a number of recommendations that I gave to Gen. McChrystal.’ In other words, junior officer Kirk was meeting with and telling military expert general McChrystal how to fight McChrystal’s war. Hello? A few hours after arriving in Afghanistan? Kirk knew more and better than the general?
“This is Kirk’s idea of ‘service’ and ‘active duty?’ Telling the generals what to do after arriving in that country a few hours earlier? Kirk's behavior is a sickening spectacle and abuse of the Navy. Kirk is a military imposter who tries to misrepresent what he does.
“Senators and Representatives go on inspection tours all the time. That kind of oversight is entirely appropriate and constitutional. But it is not constitutional or proper military etiquette for a congressman to claim he is ‘serving’ as a junior officer ‘on a tour of duty’ when in fact he is using his congressional position to tell the general how to fight the war. The idea that Kirk knew more about the war than the general, a few hours after Kirk arrived there, is an example of Kirk's megalomania.
“Kirk has been engaging in these charades for years. He claims to have ‘fought’ in several wars. His political brochures display him in a flight suit (hello George Bush?). Yesterday he told the Associated Press he was ‘fighting’ in Afghanistan last week. Does a congressman telling the general how to ‘fight’ qualify as ‘fighting?' Obviously not. The Associated Press and Sun-Times printed sheer nonsense:
http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/1979459,mark-kirk-gay-ad-response-010710.article
“Only in Mark Kirk’s vivid imagination is what he did in Afghanistan last week ‘fighting.’ His shameless exaggeration and gross misrepresentation devalues the real fighting being done by real warriors to fight terrorism.
“Kirk is either a pathological liar, or a crass politician who has contempt for both the public and the media, or one of the great military imposters of all time. Real veterans and real officers and enlisted men should be outraged by Kirk's perversion of the chain of command to promote his political campaign. The sad thing is that if Kirk told the truth--that he went on a congressional inspection visit--he would be well within his right to do so. In other words, Kirk invents lies to flatter himself, when the truth would be a respectable explanation for his activity. Such inflational behavior is a sign of Kirk's mental illness. He has to lie because the truth is not big enough for him. He is playing games with reality when he says he was ‘serving’ as a junior officer and telling general McChrystal how to fight the war.
“Any veteran who pauses to reflect on how Kirk manipulates his reserve status to falsely claim he is ‘fighting’ and serving ‘on duty’ when he is merely on a congressional trip, would be sickened at the way Kirk is misusing our brave men and women as political props for his campaign,” Martin charges.
“I love our flag and I was proud to serve, and all of us are indebted to our brave men and women who serve the cause of freedom 24/7. But Mark Kirk is a disgrace to the Navy and a disgrace to himself. He is a Walter Mitty ‘warrior’ and nothing more. He needs to see a doctor.”

Liberal media frenzy builds as conservative Andy Martin may defeat liberal Republican Mark Kirk
Martin establishes a two-man race for the Illinois Republican U. S. Senate nomination. Martin’s commercials end up on liberal blogs almost as soon as they are released to radio stations. Martin’s campaign is based on a disciplined game plan to defeat Kirk.
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin builds “Bunker Busters” as liberal media elite starts to panic
Martin says Mark Kirk is about to be defeated by a conservative “surge”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
National frenzy builds in liberal media as Andy Martin closes the gap with liberal Republican Mark Kirk
Andy builds a “Glenn Beck-style” revival movement in the Republican Party
Andy Martin’s “Bunker Busters” enter the national conversation as left-wing media cadge Martin’s ads almost as quickly as they are broadcast across Illinois
As Kirk fades from sight, the Kirk campaign doubles media spending in a desperate effort to stave off Andy Martin’s “surge”
Will Mark Kirk appear at the WLS-TV Channel 7 debate? Doubts about Kirk’s “appearance” increase
Andy Martin revs up his campaign against Wall Street greed, starts post-primary planning for a vicious campaign against Democratic party hypocrisy and greed
(NEW YORK)(January 7, 2010) Within hours of Andy Martin launching a new media attack on his opponent Mark Kirk Wednesday, January 6th, national media had obtained a copy of the ad and were broadcasting Martin’s attacks to a national audience.
“I don’t know how the Huffington Post got the ad. But within a few hours, they had what we had just put up on a statewide basis,” Martin says. “Someone leaked. It was an impressive job of filching. Very clearly, national media coverage is beginning to drive the agenda in the Republican primary for U. S. Senator. National media from the New York Times to the Huffington Post want a Mark Kirk-Andy Martin smackdown. And they are going to get one.
“Liberals were comfortable thinking pro-Obama Mark Kirk would breeze to an easy win for the Republican senate nomination, and Democrats would then finish off Kirk over the summer with typical left-wing dirty politics, see:
http://hillbuzz.org/2009/12/18/what-
chicago-democrats-are-planning-to-do-
to-out-republicans-mark-kirk-and-aaron-schock/
“By hitting Kirk first, my campaign has upended the liberal script and revitalized the Republican primary.
“What is even more upsetting to the liberal media elite is that traditional ‘movement conservatives’ are marooned on the sidelines as I build a Glenn Beck-style citizens' rebellion against the arrogant and corrupt Illinois Republican Party. In order to win the senate nomination I have had to declare war on a party which has been under day-to-day supervision of homosexuals since the Topinka years, and under the effective manipulation of Kirk adviser and Dennis Hastert homosexual majordomo John McGovern.
“My ‘movement’ is made up of disaffected Republicans that have abandoned the Republican Party as it increasingly came under the manipulation of the corrupt bipartisan ‘Combine’ in Illinois. Republicans are in rebellion, and I am their field general.
“My ‘Bunker Busters’ have entered the national conversation as liberals await a new explosion in the Kirk camp. The Huffington Post predicts the next Bunker Buster will land on Kirk next week, just before the Channel 7 WLS-TV debate.
“The Illinois Republican senate primary has been narrowed to a two-man race:
http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=
news/politics&id=7204762
“Making matters even more upsetting for the liberal media elite, they are now realizing that while Kirk would be an easy ‘mark’ to defeat, I will not be so easy to bring down if I win the nomination. I am still struggling to win the primary. But if I win the nomination, I will be positioned to lead a revitalized conservative movement to victory in Illinois next November. Where would Kirk draw votes if he won? From liberals? (See Bunker Buster #4 for the answer.)
“There is no doubt my commercials have jarred listeners. They can be unsettling. They are certainly challenging. But they are intended to alert voters to the chance for a major upset in American politics. I learned my ‘Ted Bates’ lessons well at the University of Illinois College of Business.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
National frenzy builds in liberal media as Andy Martin closes the gap with liberal Republican Mark Kirk
Andy builds a “Glenn Beck-style” revival movement in the Republican Party
Andy Martin’s “Bunker Busters” enter the national conversation as left-wing media cadge Martin’s ads almost as quickly as they are broadcast across Illinois
As Kirk fades from sight, the Kirk campaign doubles media spending in a desperate effort to stave off Andy Martin’s “surge”
Will Mark Kirk appear at the WLS-TV Channel 7 debate? Doubts about Kirk’s “appearance” increase
Andy Martin revs up his campaign against Wall Street greed, starts post-primary planning for a vicious campaign against Democratic party hypocrisy and greed
(NEW YORK)(January 7, 2010) Within hours of Andy Martin launching a new media attack on his opponent Mark Kirk Wednesday, January 6th, national media had obtained a copy of the ad and were broadcasting Martin’s attacks to a national audience.
“I don’t know how the Huffington Post got the ad. But within a few hours, they had what we had just put up on a statewide basis,” Martin says. “Someone leaked. It was an impressive job of filching. Very clearly, national media coverage is beginning to drive the agenda in the Republican primary for U. S. Senator. National media from the New York Times to the Huffington Post want a Mark Kirk-Andy Martin smackdown. And they are going to get one.
“Liberals were comfortable thinking pro-Obama Mark Kirk would breeze to an easy win for the Republican senate nomination, and Democrats would then finish off Kirk over the summer with typical left-wing dirty politics, see:
http://hillbuzz.org/2009/12/18/what-
chicago-democrats-are-planning-to-do-
to-out-republicans-mark-kirk-and-aaron-schock/
“By hitting Kirk first, my campaign has upended the liberal script and revitalized the Republican primary.
“What is even more upsetting to the liberal media elite is that traditional ‘movement conservatives’ are marooned on the sidelines as I build a Glenn Beck-style citizens' rebellion against the arrogant and corrupt Illinois Republican Party. In order to win the senate nomination I have had to declare war on a party which has been under day-to-day supervision of homosexuals since the Topinka years, and under the effective manipulation of Kirk adviser and Dennis Hastert homosexual majordomo John McGovern.
“My ‘movement’ is made up of disaffected Republicans that have abandoned the Republican Party as it increasingly came under the manipulation of the corrupt bipartisan ‘Combine’ in Illinois. Republicans are in rebellion, and I am their field general.
“My ‘Bunker Busters’ have entered the national conversation as liberals await a new explosion in the Kirk camp. The Huffington Post predicts the next Bunker Buster will land on Kirk next week, just before the Channel 7 WLS-TV debate.
“The Illinois Republican senate primary has been narrowed to a two-man race:
http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=
news/politics&id=7204762
“Making matters even more upsetting for the liberal media elite, they are now realizing that while Kirk would be an easy ‘mark’ to defeat, I will not be so easy to bring down if I win the nomination. I am still struggling to win the primary. But if I win the nomination, I will be positioned to lead a revitalized conservative movement to victory in Illinois next November. Where would Kirk draw votes if he won? From liberals? (See Bunker Buster #4 for the answer.)
“There is no doubt my commercials have jarred listeners. They can be unsettling. They are certainly challenging. But they are intended to alert voters to the chance for a major upset in American politics. I learned my ‘Ted Bates’ lessons well at the University of Illinois College of Business. We are using a classic Ted Bates approach to bringing down Kirk.
“What’s more, our approach is working. My forty years experience in radio and television give me an edge in managing a media strategy that is designed to accomplish the impossible, and very possibly will succeed in toppling the overwhelming favorite with my insurgent campaign.
“Unlike several of my nominal opponents, who each claimed to have received a ‘vision’ to run without any experience to do, my team began crafting a detailed marketing strategy to defeat Kirk over a year ago.

“Kirksters are beginning to panic. Kirk is now doubling his advertising budget. But he still hasn’t found a way to defend against or defeat my Bunker Busters. He can spend millions but obtain little benefit as long as Bunker Busters continue to drop on him.

CHICAGO NEWS CONFERENCE: Obama response to terror threat is inadequate
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin charges that President Barack Obama’s response to the growing terror threat is “less than 1/3 of a solution. Obama continues to be a 98-pound weakling on national security.”
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Obama’s airline security enhancements are grossly insufficient
Martin says that Obama is unwilling to fight the war on terror

ANNOUNCEMENT OF TUESDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
Andy Martin says that the Obama’s administration’s latest airport security procedures are less than 1/3 of a solution; where’s the rest?
Martin calls for a ban on Somali immigration to the United States
Martin renews his charge that “President Barack Obama is a 98-pound weakling on national security”
Martin has scheduled “D-Day #2” for January 6, 2010 for a new anti-Mark Kirk “bunker buster” advertisement
(CHICAGO)(January 5, 2010) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Tuesday, January 5th to challenge President Barack Obama’s latest security procedures as woefully inadequate.
“Obama’s ‘security’ effort is less than 1/3 of what is the minimum required,” Martin charges.
“First, we need enhanced airline security, targeted at terrorist nations. That has apparently been partially implemented. Where is the commitment to full-body scanners?
Second, we need to counterattack the terrorists in their training bases, and hunt down their leaders overseas. Where is this phase of the action? Ten years ago the U. S. S. Cole was blown up in Yemen. A decade later, we are going backwards. Yemen is deteriorating. How’s that for progress? Both Republicans and Democrats have failed to stabilize Yemen.
“Finally, we need to target domestic jihadis and other potential domestic terrorists. I don’t want to see any Fort Dix or Fort Hood-style attacks.
“In particular, I would ban any Somali immigration to this country. We have created our own domestic enemies by settling Somalis across the United States. These people have spawned at least one terror network, in Minnesota, which sent trainees to Somalia, and possibly other sleeper cells. Why are we importing Somalis to undermine our national security?
“Unless we enhance all aspects of national security and counterterrorism with efforts to detect and disrupt and destroy both the domestic and overseas threats, merely screening passengers at airports will be less than 1/3 of the solution,” Martin charges.
“Is Obama fighting a war, or playing pattycake with terrorists? It is hard to tell. Unless and until Obama commits himself to war-fighting and tackles the domestic terror training associations, he is not doing enough to protect Americans. Obama continues to be a 98-pound weakling on national security.”

U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin exposes media lies and corruption in Chicago
When is Mark Kirk going to withdraw as a U. S. Senate candidate? Kirk’s opponent Andy Martin strips the bark off the sordid sexual history of Kirk, former Speaker Dennis Hastert and the Illinois Republican Party. The homosexual scandal in Republican Party politics is just in its early stages. A major national scandal is about to explode.
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin exposes the media lies behind reports involving Patrick Brady
Martin says that local media used a crooked local political leader who supports gay bars and Mark Kirk to attack Martin’s campaign, without telling viewers/listeners/readers the truth
Martin says “If Pat Brady is Mark Kirk’s leading ‘beard,’ the Kirkster will be withdrawing as a candidate”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin exposes the sordid truth about Republican “leader” Pat Brady
Pat Brady is a Mark Kirk stooge, and a supporter of holding Republican (John McCain) events in gay bars
Why is Pat Brady is attacking Andy Martin, the only conservative candidate for U. S. Senator in Illinois?
Why did the media lie and present a distorted picture of Brady’s role as a Kirk surrogate?
Well, now you know “the rest of the story”
Andy predicts a major national political scandal is about to explode
Andy promises to fight corruption in Washington in both political parties.
(NEW YORK)(January 3, 2010) Last week, Illinois media and some national media reported that Patrick Brady has “disendorsed” my candidacy for U. S. Senator. Brady had absolutely no authority to take the action he released to the media. But Brady’s total lack of power to smear my campaign is only the proverbial “tip of the iceberg.” A major national scandal is about to explode.
Brady’s fraudulent behavior and the way Chicago media responded is a classic example of local media distortion, corruption and incompetence.
Not one of the media reporting Brady’s bogus action reported to viewers/listeners/readers that Brady was one of Mark Kirk’s earliest supporters. Check the facts for yourself:

http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=2053
http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=2048
http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=2048
Didn’t viewers/listeners/readers have a right to full and fair context? Would the fact that Brady was supporting my opponent have colored their view of the media’s distortions? Once again, you have actual proof positive that local media lie, and local media such as NBC's Carol Marin try to demonize conservatives.
The advertisement which prompted Mr. Brady to come forward and oppose my campaign concerned Mark Kirk's homosexual issues.
During the 2008 campaign Mr. Brady, as “John McCain leader for Illinois,” sponsored a “bar event” in “Boystown,” the homosexual neighborhood in Chicago. Would viewers/listeners/readers have liked to know Brady had a history of sponsoring homosexual activity in the Republican Party? You be the judge:
http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=1134
The one time Mr. Brady ran for office, he attacked his opponent and started a fist fight:
http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=1876
Mr. Brady has been one of the leading front men of the corrupt bipartisan “Combine” of corruption that controls both Illinois political parties:
http://www.pantagraph.com/news/article_
d6327f06-07c3-5572-a6ac-f84d3c276a1a.html
Mr. Brady has a history of attacking conservative Republicans who fight corruption; Brady asks them to leave the Party:
http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/
clout_st/2009/04/illinois-gop-leader-
critical-of-lauzen.html
http://www.championnews.net/article.php?sid=1849
Yes, politics is contentious. But why do Chicago media lie and favor one side in a fight between an extreme liberal (Kirk) and a genuine conservative (Andy Martin)?
Well, now you know the rest of the story.
Not many real Republicans would support a candidate backed by a crooked, violent psychopath like Pat Brady. This is Mark Kirk’s leading supporter? And “beard?” Mark Kirk is not long for the 2010 campaign. When will he withdraw?
The choice on February 2nd is clear: vote no to Kirk, vote no to Brady and vote no to continuing corruption of the Illinois Republican Party by former Speaker Dennis Hastert’s homosexual operatives.
If you want to fight political and moral corruption in Washington,- please vote for me. I am your only hope to get the truth and the only Republican who can stand up to Barack Obama.
MONDAY: Who is John McGovern and what is his connection to Mark Kirk and the “homosexual GOP culture…in Illinois.”

The one time Mr. Brady ran for office, he attacked his opponent and started a fist fight:

Mr. Brady has been one of the leading front men of the corrupt bipartisan “Combine” of corruption that controls both Illinois political parties:

Yes, politics is contentious. But why do Chicago media lie and favor one side in a fight between an extreme liberal (Kirk) and a genuine conservative (Andy Martin)?
Well, now you know the rest of the story.
Not many real Republicans would support a candidate backed by a crooked, violent psychopath like Pat Brady. This is Mark Kirk’s leading supporter? And “beard?” Mark Kirk is not long for the 2010 campaign. When will he withdraw?
The choice on February 2nd is clear: vote no to Kirk, vote no to Brady and vote no to continuing corruption of the Illinois Republican Party by former Speaker Dennis Hastert’s homosexual operatives.
If you want to fight political and moral corruption in Washington,- please vote for me. I am your only hope to get the truth and the only Republican who can stand up to Barack Obama.
MONDAY: Who is John McGovern and what is his connection to Mark Kirk and the “homosexual GOP culture…in Illinois.”

NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE: U.S. Senate candidate says Barack Obama is a “98-pound weakling” on national security
The U.S. Senate candidate the New York Times calls a “conservative bomb thrower,” Andy Martin attacks Barack Obama’s response to terrorist crisis in Yemen. Martin says Obama’s radio address Saturday offered a travelogue, not a solution or a plan to attack terror camps. Martin proposes an “Israeli-style” approach to fighting terrorism. Martin will review the Jimmy Carter-era term and apply it to Obama: “Mush from the Wimp”
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Barack Obama is a “98-pound weakling” on national security
Martin demands that Obama “stop coddling Muslims” and impose additional screening procedures on both foreign and domestic Muslims and other potential terrorists

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SATURDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN NEW YORK
IS OBAMA A “NINETY-EIGHT POUND WEAKLING” ON NATIONAL SECURITY?
Andy Martin says that Barack Obama is endangering national security by “coddling Muslims”
Martin calls for a crackdown on Islamic nations and says as a Senator he will legislate the temporary imposition of Islamic profiling on both foreign and domestic individuals
Martin says Congress must follow the “Israeli example” in focusing security efforts on security threats, not “Illinois grannies”
Is Obama’s mysterious “student” trip to Pakistan a factor in his pro-Islamic attitudes?
Martin revives the Jimmy carter-era term “Mush from the Wimp” and calls Obama a “wimp in the war against terror”
(NEW YORK)(January 2, 2010) The Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” that the New York Times calls a “conservative bomb thrower” will hold a dramatic New York news conference today, Saturday, January 2nd to attack President Barack Obama and call the president a “98-pound weakling” on national security.
Martin accuses Obama of endangering the lives of every American. “The greatest threat to American national security is sitting in the White House, in the Oval Office,” Martin charges.
“Al-Qaeda is a threat. Yemen is a threat. There are threats in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Somalia represents a problem,” Martin says.
“But the greatest threat of all to our nation is Barack Obama himself. His coddling of Muslims and his degrading of our national security capabilities endangers every American. Obama is trying to blunt the reality that his relentless political correctness and international groveling is encouraging new terrorist threats.
“Today (Saturday) Obama gave us a radio travelogue on the terror network routes from Yemen to New York and Detroit. What a surprise! The CIA knows where the bad guys are. Obama lacks the will to take them out. What is he waiting for? We are not ‘partners’ with the Yemeni government as Obama claims. There is no Yemeni government as we understand the term. Terrorists operate openly and with impunity. Obama has been sending Guantanamo inmates to Yemen to reinforce the terrorist training camps. Is this insane?
“Jimmy Carter allowed these terror networks to come into being. Then we said there was ‘Mush from the wimp.’ Americans are receiving more mush from a new 2010 wimp.
“Barack Obama is a ‘wimp on national security.’ Obama’s plan to ‘strengthen our partnership with the Yemeni government’ is a joke,” says Middle East security expert Andy Martin. Martin proposes an Israeli-style crackdown on terrorist attempts to commit mass murder.
“When is Obama going to face the inevitable and tell people he has decided not to close Guantanamo?” Martin demands. “When his he going to ask every Muslim government to stamp out terrorism? How can we be safe when Imams and mosques from Cairo to Karachi are spewing forth hate with government approval? Obama’s plan to ‘strengthen our partnership with the Yemeni government’ is ‘mere words.’ When is Obama going to face the truth? Martin says Obama is a 98-pound weakling on national security.
“Barry Obama’s Muslim heritage, which he likes to brag about when it suits his purposes, is preventing him from declaring the war on terror. Instead he has chumbolone Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano telling us everything is fine.
“Obama became president without ever being vetted by any national security agency. Obama’s mysterious journey to Pakistan as a ‘student’ becomes more intriguing every day. Who paid? How did he get there? Whom did he meet with? Obama won’t say. Yet he brags his mother was on welfare. Did he use food stamps to pay for his ticket? Obama’s silence breeds suspicion. There is no way Obama’s opaque personal history would qualify him for any U.S. Government security clearance.
“Obama is mentally incapable of cracking down on Muslims. His mother raised him as a Muslim until the age of 10. He boasted of his Muslim roots in his Cairo speech. His law school education was apparently financed by some of the same Saudi extremists who were paymasters for Al-Qaeda and 9/11.
“I do not trust Barack Obama. Not for one inch, not for one minute.
“We must adopt the Israeli approach to national security and direct our efforts at pre-profiled terrorists and extremists. Illinois ‘grannies’ are not the threat. Islamic anarchists are.
“As Illinois’ U. S. Senator I will immediately become Barack Obama’s most formidable opponent, and the most influential advocate of enhanced national security. I have forty years of international experience to recognize a growing risk when I see one. That’s why I believe Obama is the greatest threat to our national security. His actions encourage Islamic anarchists.

New York Times creates Andy Martin/Mark Kirk “smackdown” for U. S. Senate nomination in Illinois
Andy Martin provides his “spin” on a major New Year’s Day development in the Illinois U. S. Senate campaign.
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says the New York Times has declared the “first primary” for Illinois U. S. Senator is over
Martin says that the Times has now recognized what the Chicago Tribune acknowledged decades ago: Martin’s formidable campaign skills give him an edge in what is going to be a bloody and bitter January campaign leading up to the February 2nd “second” primary
Martin says “The Kirkster is Kaput”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS
Andy Martin says that he firmly supports the right of any candidate to run for senator against Mark Kirk, but the media have now coalesced around Martin’s candidacy as Mark Kirk’s most serious threat
Martin will produce his second “Bunker Buster” ad on January 5th. It will be even more devastating to Kirk than the first one, thanks in part to the New York Times article
Martin calls on Kirk to withdraw before his political reputation is completely destroyed
Martin declares “amnesty” for conservative leaders who join his campaign
Does Mark Kirk have a “homosexual Praetorian Guard?” Republican leader Ray True now admits he effectively made the claim
(NEW YORK)(January 1, 2010) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin issued the following statement Friday morning in response to an article which appeared in the New York Times essentially naming Martin as Mark Kirk’s only significant opponent for the U. S. Senate nomination.
Martin is in New York for the holiday and will return to Chicago on January 4th.
STATEMENT OF ANDY MARTIN
The New York Times has published a vicious attack on my candidacy and my successful forty-year career as a corruption fighter in Illinois. The “news” report is riddled with lies, snide epithets, distortions and other malicious opinions.
However, between the lines of the Times article the truth emerges. There are several “truths” which the Times has now clarified and conceded. Here are my opinions in response to the Times story:
1. While other names are on the ballot, the nomination for the U. S. Senate seat has come down to a race between me and Mark Kirk. The other candidates have been rendered superfluous by the Times story. None of them are advertising on the radio and TV. Only Kirk and I are. My radio advertising has elicited 92 articles and has gone viral on the Internet and around the world.
Voters want to see a Martin-Kirk smackdown. Both Kirk and I are experienced politicians who represent conflicting viewpoints within the Republican Party. I’m ready to debate the Kirkster. Is he ready to debate me?
2. Although the Times did not realize what it was doing, the vicious attack on me actually provided more documentation for the claims in my second “Bunker Buster” ad which is going to be produced on January 5th. Media may be permitted to witness the actual production of the ad if they request to cover the event. Please submit requests in writing [reports of the production will be embargoed for 24 hours, until the ad appears on the radio].
3. Although I have the highest respect for James Warren’s earlier journalism, before he left the Chicago Tribune, Mr. Warren lacks any respect for my investigative writing. Sad. He shamelessly distorts what I previously wrote about Barack Obama. People can buy my book (see below) and read what I said. My 2007 psychological profile of Obama is especially relevant today. I delivered a lot more insightful analysis and predictive accuracy than the dominant liberal media establishment. They lied about Obama, I told the truth. Jim Warren is still jealous of my integrity. He denigrates and depreciated me despite the fact I am both a respected author and journalist.
I am also known as the “Internet Powerhouse.” Mr. Warren is a has-been who is now writing for a “non-profit cooperative” that is supported by [tax-exempt] taxpayer dollars.
4. Mr. Warren did make one very valuable contribution to the controversy over my advertising. Ray True initially denied to local media that he had said what I quoted him as saying. Mr. True has now confirmed in the New York Times that I quoted him accurately, and that he did indeed make the remarks I quoted in my advertisement. My advertisement was 100% accurate, which is why it created such a liberal media firestorm. Mr. True is now a confessed liar.
5. Mr. Warren’s report also confirms that the “first primary” is over. There was a de facto “primary” between Mr. Kirk’s challengers as to who would emerge as the principal opponent to the Kirkster. There is no longer any dispute that I am the Kirkster's nemesis. It’s Kirk or me. When we drop our second Bunker Buster on Kirk next week, there will not be any debate, anywhere that Kirk and I are going to fight a bloody, bitter primary in January, and that on February 2nd I am going to stick the fork in the Kirkster and send him into political retirement.
6. Mr. Warren repeats a “big lie” that the Illinois Supreme Court created decades ago to discredit me after I helped remove two crooked justices from the court. As a result of Warren’s reporting, which I read with a glass of champagne in my hand, I was prompted to sue the Illinois Supreme Court next week to (i) open any and all records they assembled on me and (ii) to demand that they correct their decades-old lies smearing of my good character. Thank you Jim Warren for the inspiration to do so. I have nothing to fear from the truth. Once the truth emerges, what lies will the liberals use to smear me?
Only in Illinois does the Supreme Court smear an honest man and reward criminals. What a state. The facts are the facts. I fought corruption on the Supreme Court; they retaliated by punishing me. When the then-crooked Illinois Supreme Court attacked me it was one of the proudest moments of my life. It still is.
7. On October 5, 2008, I appeared in a cable TV program on Sunday night, perhaps the most obscure time slot in cable programming. Over a year later, the liberal media are still fulminating over my appearance on Sean Hannity and promoting the claim that I was “central” to Hannity’s program. I have claimed that my interview on Hannity became the defining media moment of the presidential campaign. Once again, the Times effectively confirms my claims. This is at least the third article which the Times has written about my appearance on Sean Hannity’s one show. I invite readers to view the video for themselves and see if I accurately predicted how Obama would govern:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=
j8zj_Fj3QpY&annotation_id=annotation
_259119&feature=iv
8. While I have my rough edges, no one can deny that I am a tough and experienced fighter in the political arena. With the senate primary on February 2nd now effectively reduced to a two-man race, I hereby challenge the Kirkster to two-man debates on the substantive issues. Is Kirk afraid to debate me? We will see.
9. Clearly, the dominant liberal media are terrified that I am going to defeat Mark Kirk and go on to sit in Barack Obama’s senate seat. Liberal fears are the best evidence for Republican voters to consider that I am their real Republican candidate for United States Senator.
10. There is only final error in Mr. Warren’s report. He calls me a “lightweight.” My new year’s resolutions are to eat less and exercise more.
Overall, Mr. Warren’s piece establishes me as the media master the Chicago Tribune earlier declared me to be. Forty-eight hours after `we dropped a Bunker Buster bomb on Mark Kirk we demolished his political career. My attack was one of the most devastating political ads in American broadcasting history.
Let me be clear. Bunker Buster #2 is already set for production. Bunker Busters #3 and #4 are being prepared to follow up. We are going to be “bunker busting” Kirk until he withdraws or is defeated. Kirk is Kaput.
I call on Mark Kirk to withdraw before we have to completely obliterate his career. He is already permanently damaged by his failure to respond to the evidence against him. Since both Mr. Kirk and I are lawyers, I would advise Mr. Kirk that the “adverse inference rule” applies when probative evidence is offered against a party, and the party fails to respond. Now that Col. Ray True has recanted his earlier denial, True’s claim that Kirk is surrounded by a homosexual “Praetorian Guard” is once again on the table for discussion. Kirk has issued no response. Doesn’t he own a cell phone? Even Army PFC’s get to call home. Kirk is clearly hiding and remaining in seclusion. Why? Kirk is afraid of the truth, and especially afraid of the attack dogs in the gay media.
I will be back in my office Monday, January 5th. I invite all conservative Republican leaders, even those that have been critical of me in the past, to meet with me and to join forces so we can march together as a coalition to victory on February 2nd. We will bury Mark Kirk’s political career once and for all. All are welcome to join my crusade to return the Republican Party to facts, truth and conservative values. Previously opposing conservatives now have an “amnesty” period to join my campaign and work together.
Martin can be reached in New York through Monday morning when he flies home to Chicago.

Mr. True has now confirmed in the New York Times that I quoted him accurately, and that he did indeed make the remarks I quoted in my advertisement. My advertisement was 100% accurate, which is why it created such a liberal media firestorm. Mr. True is now a confessed liar.
5. Mr. Warren’s report also confirms that the “first primary” is over. There was a de facto “primary” between Mr. Kirk’s challengers as to who would emerge as the principal opponent to the Kirkster. There is no longer any dispute that I am the Kirkster's nemesis. It’s Kirk or me. When we drop our second Bunker Buster on Kirk next week, there will not be any debate, anywhere that Kirk and I are going to fight a bloody, bitter primary in January, and that on February 2nd I am going to stick the fork in the Kirkster and send him into political retirement.
6. Mr. Warren repeats a “big lie” that the Illinois Supreme Court created decades ago to discredit me after I helped remove two crooked justices from the court. As a result of Warren’s reporting, which I read with a glass of champagne in my hand, I was prompted to sue the Illinois Supreme Court next week to (i) open any and all records they assembled on me and (ii) to demand that they correct their decades-old lies smearing of my good character. Thank you Jim Warren for the inspiration to do so. I have nothing to fear from the truth. Once the truth emerges, what lies will the liberals use to smear me?
Only in Illinois does the Supreme Court smear an honest man and reward criminals. What a state. The facts are the facts. I fought corruption on the Supreme Court; they retaliated by punishing me. When the then-crooked Illinois Supreme Court attacked me it was one of the proudest moments of my life. It still is.
7. On October 5, 2008, I appeared in a cable TV program on Sunday night, perhaps the most obscure time slot in cable programming. Over a year later, the liberal media are still fulminating over my appearance on Sean Hannity and promoting the claim that I was “central” to Hannity’s program. I have claimed that my interview on Hannity became the defining media moment of the presidential campaign. Once again, the Times effectively confirms my claims. This is at least the third article which the Times has written about my appearance on Sean Hannity’s one show. I invite readers to view the video for themselves and see if I accurately predicted how Obama would govern:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=
j8zj_Fj3QpY&annotation_id=annotation
_259119&feature=iv
8. While I have my rough edges, no one can deny that I am a tough and experienced fighter in the political arena. With the senate primary on February 2nd now effectively reduced to a two-man race, I hereby challenge the Kirkster to two-man debates on the substantive issues. Is Kirk afraid to debate me? We will see.
9. Clearly, the dominant liberal media are terrified that I am going to defeat Mark Kirk and go on to sit in Barack Obama’s senate seat. Liberal fears are the best evidence for Republican voters to consider that I am their real Republican candidate for United States Senator.
10. There is only final error in Mr. Warren’s report. He calls me a “lightweight.” My new year’s resolutions are to eat less and exercise more.
Overall, Mr. Warren’s piece establishes me as the media master the Chicago Tribune earlier declared me to be. Forty-eight hours after `we dropped a Bunker Buster bomb on Mark Kirk we demolished his political career. My attack was one of the most devastating political ads in American broadcasting history.
Let me be clear. Bunker Buster #2 is already set for production. Bunker Busters #3 and #4 are being prepared to follow up. We are going to be “bunker busting” Kirk until he withdraws or is defeated. Kirk is Kaput.
I call on Mark Kirk to withdraw before we have to completely obliterate his career. He is already permanently damaged by his failure to respond to the evidence against him. Since both Mr. Kirk and I are lawyers, I would advise Mr. Kirk that the “adverse inference rule” applies when probative evidence is offered against a party, and the party fails to respond. Now that Col. Ray True has recanted his earlier denial, True’s claim that Kirk is surrounded by a homosexual “Praetorian Guard” is once again on the table for discussion. Kirk has issued no response. Doesn’t he own a cell phone? Even Army PFC’s get to call home. Kirk is clearly hiding and remaining in seclusion. Why? Kirk is afraid of the truth, and especially afraid of the attack dogs in the gay media.
I will be back in my office Monday, January 5th. I invite all conservative Republican leaders, even those that have been critical of me in the past, to meet with me and to join forces so we can march together as a coalition to victory on February 2nd. We will bury Mark Kirk’s political career once and for all. All are welcome to join my crusade to return the Republican Party to facts, truth and conservative values. Previously opposing conservatives now have an “amnesty” period to join my campaign and work together.
Martin can be reached in New York through Monday morning when he flies home to Chicago.

Media declare “Kirk Kaput:” Andy Martin the surprise frontrunner for U S Senator in Illinois Republican primary
In forty-eight hours, the mainstream media have removed Mark Kirk from his perch as the “done deal” Republican nominee for U. S. Senator. Andy Martin launched one of the most devastating media attacks in American political history. Martin promises a new “Bunker Buster” anti-Kirk ad for January 6th.
“Our society is saturated with hypocrisy,” Martin says. “Liberals have a program they love called ‘Hardball,’ and Anderson Cooper calls a segment ‘Raw Politics,’ but when they actually see raw politics and hardball in action, their composure collapses. My campaign is poised to score the upset of the decade on February 2nd. Conservatives want to win. We are going to deliver a real conservative victory on February 2nd.”

Forty-eight hours that changed American politics
Mainstream media collapse in disarray as conservative Republicans rally to Andy Martin
Dear Illinois Republican:
Several weeks ago I began announcing “D-Day” for December 28th. I said we would launch game-changing attacks. I am a man of my word.
On Sunday (December 27) my campaign issued a statement claiming we were going to turn Illinois politics upside down. We were wrong. We are turning American politics upside down!
Simply by telling voters the truth about my opponent.
I am just a straightforward hard-charging Fighting Illini. Everything I learned in life I learned in Memorial Stadium. As a freshman, Coach Ray Eliot regaled me with the upset Fighting Illini victory that was led by the cry “Send Ameche at me.” I have this to say to the liberal media: Send Kirk at me. We’ll beat him.
The media began with their typical malicious attacks on me. Lies, distortions. Not one positive word about someone who has been a successful corruption fighter. Just bald-faced efforts to smear me (see www.AndyMartin.com for my bio.) Just ask Sarah Palin what these people are like.
The “hate parade” was led by Nell Steinberg, a Sun-Times "columnist" who accused all downstaters of being ignoramuses. You should know, in the same spirit of full disclosure that media apply to me, that Mr. Steinberg was criminally charged with beating his wife and being a drunk, and entered rehab. I think Steinberg needs to stay in rehab. To protect his wife. My victory on February 2nd will keep Steinberg in rehab.
Gay media across the country have declared Mark Kirk a homosexual. In fact, one gay publication (San Diego) is suggesting Kirk’s campaign is collapsing the same way Tiger Woods did.
Carol Marin of NBC-TV is afraid “the wrong people will be voting.” That means YOU. In other words, not “her people.” Liberals.
Now conservative publications are rallying to my campaign and comparing my honesty with Mark Kirk’s lifetime of duplicity, deceit and deception (D-Day?). See http://rffm.typepad.com/. Even political opponents who are supporting other candidates are collapsing their opposition and admitting my radio advertising about Kirk is 100% true. One of the people mentioned in the ad, Ray True, calls me the “ultra” conservative in the race. Now he tells us.
The media thought their lies would finish me off. Once again, they were wrong. I see a tsunami of conservative support flowing in our direction. The momentum has shifted to my campaign. Victory is in sight.
If conservatives stick together and join my campaign, we will defeat Kirk and claim the nomination as ours. It has to be a team effort. On February 2nd we can celebrate a national victory for conservatives. Take that Barry Obama.
The media are running scared. They were caught lying to you about Kirk. What else are they lying about? Me, for example. For months the media lied to you and tried to get you to believe you had no choice in the primary. Now, thanks to my ads, you know the truth. We exploded Kirks balloon in 48 Hours. 48 Hours that changed American politics.
Tell voters the truth, and the mainstream media panic. Now you know why the Chicago Tribune once called me an “absolutely brilliant campaigner” and a “master” campaigner.
And, by the way watch for an even bigger “Bunker Buster” ad next January 6th. Kirk is toast.
We’re winning. Please join my team and we will roll to victory over Kirk and Brady on February 2nd.
Happy New Year,
Andy Martin

P.S. We need cash, lots of it, to keep the ads on the air. We need even more cash to platform the “Bunker Buster” ad across the state on 200 radio stations.

If we win on February second, conservatives across America will win.

U. S. Senate candidate charges that Barack Obama is the greatest threat to national security
Obama author and expert Andy Martin questions the influence Obama’s upbringing as a Muslim has on his willingness to “crack down” on Islamic nations that are allowing Muslim anarchists to fester. Martin calls for new profiling of Muslims, both foreign and domestic. The “Psychological Profile” in Martin’s book “Obama: The Man Behind The Mask” predicted in 2007 that Obama was emotionally unstable in a crisis. Martin is a candidate for Obama’s former U. S. Senate seat.
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Barack Obama is the greatest threat to U. S. national security
Martin demands that Obama “stop coddling Muslims” and impose additional screening procedures on both foreign and domestic Muslims and other potential terrorists

ANNOUNCEMENT OF MONDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
Andy Martin says that Barack Obama is endangering national security by “coddling Muslims”
Martin calls for a crackdown on Islamic nations and says as a Senator he will legislate the temporary imposition of Islamic profiling on both foreign and domestic individuals
Martin says Congress must follow the “Israeli example” in focusing security efforts on security threats, not “Illinois grannies”
Is Obama’s mysterious “student” trip to Pakistan a factor in his pro-Islamic attitudes?
Martin says this is a “very painful day for me, but an unavoidable one”
Martin will issue a “National Security Letter” to Obama at the news conference
Martin has scheduled “D-Day #2” for January 6, 2010 for a new anti-Kirk “bunker buster”
(CHICAGO)(December 30, 2009) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a dramatic Chicago news conference Wednesday, December 30th to attack President Barack Obama for endangering the lives of every American. “The greatest threat to American national security is sitting in the White House, in the Oval Office,” Martin will charge.
“Al-Qaeda is a threat. Yemen is a threat. There are threats in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Somalia represents a problem.
“But the greatest threat of all to our nation is Barack Obama himself. His coddling of Muslims and his degrading of our national security capabilities endangers every American. Obama is trying to blunt the reality that his relentless political correctness and international groveling is encouraging new terrorist threats.
“Obama became president without ever being vetted by any national security agency. Obama’s mysterious journey to Pakistan as a ‘student’ becomes more intriguing every day. Who paid? How did he get there? Whom did he meet with? Obama won’t say. Yet he brags his mother was on welfare. Did he use food stamps to pay for his ticket? Obama’s silence breeds suspicion. There is no way Obama’s opaque personal history would qualify him for any U.S. Government security clearance.
“Obama is mentally incapable of cracking down on Muslims. His mother raised him as a Muslim until the age of 10. He boasted of his Muslim roots in his Cairo speech. His law school education was apparently financed by some of the same Saudi extremists who were paymasters for Al-Qaeda and 9/11.
“I do not trust Barack Obama. Not for one inch, not for one minute.
“We must adopt the Israeli approach to national security and direct our efforts at pre-profiled terrorists and extremists. Illinois ‘grannies’ are not the threat. Islamic anarchists are.
“As Illinois’ U. S. Senator I will immediately become Barack Obama’s most formidable opponent, and the most influential advocate of enhanced national security. I have forty years of international experience to recognize a growing risk when I see one. That’s why I believe Obama is the greatest threat to our national security. His actions encourage Islamic anarchists.
“In closing, let me say this is a painful day for me. I am a strong supporter of civil liberties. I am deeply troubled that many innocent people may be inconvenienced or embarrassed by the necessity to enhance national security screening. I have the utmost respect for Islam and every Muslim, and many of my Muslim friends will be disappointed by my advocacy of the need for profiling. But my efforts on behalf of Middle East peace continue. Our national security is enhanced when we stand for peace and justice everywhere in the world.
“Without national security, however, there is no ‘state’ to protect civil liberties. We cannot allow Islamic anarchists to threaten global peace and security. I believe my oath to defend the Constitution of the United States from all enemies foreign and domestic means just that, however unfortunate the consequences for innocent persons who are affected. I pray the need for the emergency measures will be a brief one.”

Conservative Republicans defend Andy Martin against media attacks
Local media suggest that the corrupt Illinois “Combine” rigged Republican leader Pat Brady’s smear attack on Andy Martin in advance. Do internal polls show Andy Martin winning on February 2nd? Is that what Brady and Mark Kirk are really afraid of?

Republicans launch counterattack on Chicago
media’s efforts to smear Andy Martin
Dear Illinois Republican:
You may have heard Pat Brady’s attack on me. Mr. Brady had no authority to use the Illinois Republican Party apparatus to smear primary election candidates. Brady is a formally announced supporter of Mark Kirk. Brady’s organization took $50,000 in cash “hush money” from Kirk.
Both the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune published lurid attacks on me and my advertising yesterday. Most of the content of the articles was outright lies or distortions. But here’s the clincher. Neither reporter made any effort to speak with me.
Likewise, other media published false claims about me. I wonder what they are afraid of? Why do the media lie?
They lie because they do not know any conservative Republicans. They live in a liberal cocoon where anyone who threatens their orthodoxy is smeared with lies and distortions.
But real Republican conservatives are behind me and my campaign to defeat Mark Kirk. That’s what counts on February 2nd.
Republican Chairman Pat Brady is nothing but a stooge of the corrupt “Combine” that controls both political parties in this state. Polling probably shows that I am beating Kirk in the primary.

Here is my posting/response to Cao’s blog:
My radio ad on Mark Kirk is absolutely factually correct. I realize the ad may offend some people, but then Mark Kirk in the U. S. Senate for six years would be even more offensive.
I respect the right of anyone to disagree with me, but I believe that honest campaigns sometimes have to be tough campaigns, when you are running, as I am, against a political fraud such as Mark Kirk. The liberal gay-dominated media in Chicago are promoting Kirk and trying to nominate him by default. They ignore the other candidates. I will not lie down and surrender to liberal media fraud. I am fighting to become a senator, and I will fight for the people of Illinois and the American people as your U. S. Senator in Washington.
The claim by some that my honesty somehow endangers Republicans is complete nonsense. Republican dishonesty is our biggest enemy. We can’t lie to ourselves about Kirk during the primary, and then blame others when the Democrats blow up his campaign next summer. Pat Brady’s hypocrisy is the real enemy of every Republican.
We drop the next “bunker buster” on Mark Kirk on January 6th. Be listening.

Republicans launch counterattack on Chicago
media’s efforts to smear Andy Martin
Dear Illinois Republican:
You may have heard Pat Brady’s attack on me. Mr. Brady had no authority to use the Illinois Republican Party apparatus to smear primary election candidates. Brady is a formally announced supporter of Mark Kirk. Brady’s organization took $50,000 in cash “hush money” from Kirk.
Both the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune published lurid attacks on me and my advertising yesterday. Most of the content of the articles was outright lies or distortions. But here’s the clincher. Neither reporter made any effort to speak with me.
Likewise, other media published false claims about me. I wonder what they are afraid of? Why do the media lie?
They lie because they do not know any conservative Republicans. They live in a liberal cocoon where anyone who threatens their orthodoxy is smeared with lies and distortions.
But real Republican conservatives are behind me and my campaign to defeat Mark Kirk. That’s what counts on February 2nd.
Republican Chairman Pat Brady is nothing but a stooge of the corrupt “Combine” that controls both political parties in this state. Polling probably shows that I am beating Kirk in the primary. That’s why he attacked me. The Combine is terrified I am winning the primary. Brady’s attack on me confirms I am the most powerful Republican for U. S. Senator. The Combine feared Senator Peter Fitzgerald and destroyed his career. I won’t let the Combine do the same to me.
One writer suggests that Brady’s attack was prepared in advance; Brady was just looking for an excuse to smear my candidacy, all as Kirk’s announced supporter:

U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin is launching an unprecedented series of broadcast attacks on Mark Kirk beginning Monday, December 28th. Martin says that Kirk must answer Republican leaders’ questions concerning Kirk’s alleged homosexuality and homosexual relationship in Washington, DC. “There has never been another campaign like this,” Martin says. “We are going to turn the State of Illinois upside down on February 2nd, win the primary, stun both political establishments, go on to win election to the U. S. Senate and lead a counter-revolution to Barack Obama’s overthrow of our national institutions.”
U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Mark Kirk must address allegations that Kirk is a homosexual
Martin says “the issue is not homosexuality, the question is hypocrisy; people are entitled to their privacy, they are not entitled to live public lives in the closet”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS
ANNOUNCEMENT OF MONDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
Andy Martin launches “D-Day” in Illinois politics: “Disclose the facts, Disseminate the truth and Defeat—Mark Kirk”
Martin says Illinois Republican voters deserve the facts and the truth from Kirk about Kirk’s alleged homosexual activity
Martin is blanketing the state with broadcast ads repeating allegations against Kirk made by another senate candidate’s supporters
Martin is already producing a second round of ads exposing Kirk’s other sexual peccadilloes
Andy says both parties struggle with closeted gay public officials.
(CHICAGO)(December 28, 2009) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Monday, December 28th to announce that he has begun a statewide campaign of advertising suggesting that Mark Kirk must address media rumors of his homosexuality.
“The Chairman of Illinois Democrats for John McCain has accused Mark Kirk of being a homosexual, and living with another homosexual man in Washington, DC. Kevin DuJan, who was recognized by National GOP Chairman Michael Steele in April, 2009 as a 2008 John McCain leader, has published a widely circulated article claiming that Democrats are planning to expose Kirk’s homosexuality to retain the U. S. Senate seat in November, 2010.
“These accusations demand a full explanation from Kirk himself. Kirk’s attempts to brush off his critics with a statement claiming they ‘demean’ him will not wash with Republican primary voters. It seems that everywhere Kirk goes, ‘rumors’ follow in his wake. That’s very unusual.
“Interestingly, all of the persons behind the current Kirk attacks appear to be motivated by support for another GOP candidate in the senate primary, not my campaign.
“Earlier, Lake County Republican leader Ray True accused Kirk of being a homosexual, and said he ‘knows Kirk pretty well.’ Former Republican gubernatorial candidate Jack Roeser said there is a ‘solid rumor that Kirk is a homosexual.’ Both men support another GOP candidate, not my campaign.
“Let me be clear. Homosexuality is not the issue. Every person is entitled to privacy, and everyone is entitled to equal protection of the laws. But when someone such as Kirk steps into the public arena, and wants to be elected to one of the top 100 public offices in a nation, he owes Illinois voters a campaign in the open, not a ‘campaign in the closet.’ Who does he share a house with in Washington?
“Republicans have had a persistent homosexual problem over the years, most recently with Congressman Mark Kirk and Senator Larry Craig. But both parties struggle with closeted gay man as public officials, such as Wisconsin U. S. Senator Herb Kohl and Florida Governor Charlie Crist. We need to deal honestly with human behavior.
“In my six decade career of political reform and corruption fighting in Illinois, I have been dedicated to finding the facts and searching for the truth. It is now an objective fact that some Republican leaders are making accusations against Kirk. He has to answer them. He cannot be a credible candidate for the United States Senate while accusations of homosexuality, sham marriages and live-in ‘boy friends’ are swirling around him.
“Finally, while the Kirk—is-a-homosexual story line has been all across the Republican Party leadership, and on the Internet, Republican primary voters are being kept in the dark. That’s wrong. That’s hypocritical. Kirk is swamping the state with bogus ads touting his conservative credentials while concealing his convoluted personal lifestyle from the public. Illinois State Republican Chairman Pat Brady knows the truth: how can Brady be a leader and support a liar?
“All my broadcast advertising does is take the truth to the voters. Republican Party leaders are lying. Votes have a right to the facts and the truth.
“Ironically, the current attacks on Kirk do not come from my campaign; I have nothing to do with them. All of the attacks on Kirk originate with supporters of one of the other Republican senate candidates. That GOP ‘candidate’ has to accept or reject the actions of his campaign contributors who accuse Kirk of homosexuality.
“I should point out that while my current ad is based on the public accusations by others, we are preparing to air our own investigative exposé of Kirk’s involvement in additional sex scandals. The second batch of ads is now going into production.
“If we receive enough new campaign contributions we will move into TV as well. Money is the only constraint on our anti-Kirk advertising at this point.
“The Chicago Tribune editorial board once called me an ‘absolutely brilliant campaigner’ whose ‘public-relations skills are masterly.’ That’s why the Tribune locked me out of their ‘forum’ this month with Kirk. They were afraid I would embarrass Kirk, the Tribune’s rigged ‘Combine’ candidate. The Tribune does not deserve to survive as a newspaper; they have forfeited all of their journalistic integrity.
“I am the only candidate with over forty years of radio and TV experience. I am fighting a ‘David and Goliath’ battle against Kirk. But if Kirk wins, Obama wins; if Kirk wins, America loses. I must not fail.
“I can say without fear of contradiction that January, 2010 is going to be a ‘month to remember’ in Illinois politics. The political decade is going to start with a bang. We are taking the truth to Illinois voters; it may be uncomfortable for some.
“But if a candidate hasn’t got the guts to stand up and tell voters the facts and the truth about his primary opponent, how is he going to stand up to Barack Obama and stop the socialist revolution?” Martin says. “I am ‘the name you can trust’ for U. S. Senator because I tell voters the truth. All of the references for the claims in my advertising follow these remarks (see below).
“I expect to win the Republican primary, and go on to sweep away the Democratic candidate. One year from now, I will be Illinois’ own senator, and America’s senator, as I lead the battle to stop Barrack Obama and his anti-American agenda from destroying this great nation.”

Washington, DC sex scandal: Andy Martin calls for resignation of Senator Max Baucus
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.”
Washington, DC sex scandal: U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin calls for criminal investigation of “Baucusgate,” appointment of special prosecutor to investigate Department of Justice
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

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.

Washington, DC sex scandal: U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin calls for criminal investigation of “Baucusgate,” appointment of special prosecutor to investigate Department of Justice
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.

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.
