Good luck, my friend.

I heard you (Adam Kokesh) on "Democracy Now" last evening. It was quite thrilling to hear a Marine speaking clearly, plainly and beautifully against this unjust war against Iraq. You are a true patriot and it is an honor to post on your blog. I want to post a mention of you on my own blog. Thank you so much for speaking up for common sense. -- a patriotic musician.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8354759365640532487.post-3670479563535330102007-06-13T19:53:00.000-05:002007-06-13T19:53:00.000-05:00A dishonorable discharge would be my choice.

They are afraid and scared and lack the moral and emotional strength to take a stand against the actions of this twisted and corrupted administration.<BR/><BR/>Don't give up the good fight and always know that for every one of those individuals that tries and cut you down, there are 10 times as many people that support your right to speak your mind and live your life as you see fit.<BR/><BR/>Just because you are asked to serve your country doesn't mean you relinquish your right to question and criticize your country.

It is patriotic and it goes to the very core of what a democratic society is all about to feel safe and secure to speak our minds, to share our thoughts and, most importantly, to be heard, regardless of whether we agree or not.<BR/><BR/>A democracy is not about goose-stepping to the drumbeat of the government, but about engaging one another and the government in a truthful and respectful dialogue to solve problems.<BR/><BR/>You have my support and the support of my family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8354759365640532487.post-48355031003756137902007-06-13T14:59:00.000-05:002007-06-13T14:59:00.000-05:00Oops, I miscounted.It should have been Anonymous #...Oops, I miscounted.<BR/>It should have been Anonymous #2 I was pointing to.<BR/>The diatribe which began.."Ha Ha Ha ! ! !"<BR/>Sorry for the mistake.<BR/>TreeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8354759365640532487.post-6101444002644318362007-06-13T14:56:00.000-05:002007-06-13T14:56:00.000-05:00Adam,Real heroes are in, and out, of uniform.Godsp...Adam,<BR/>Real heroes are in, and out, of uniform.<BR/>Godspeed and prayers to you and yours in this endeavor.<BR/>While only the proud son of a retired Korean and Viet Nam vet, my hat is off to you, and my respect deep.<BR/>When next I ride to escort the Moving Wall, or attend a funeral of a soldier with the Patriot Guard Riders, you will be on my mind and heart.<BR/>Anonymous #1,<BR/>Which branch of the "Government" do you take our hard earned money and do nothing for, save spread disinfo and strife?<BR/>Wake up before Judgement Day finds you on the wrong side.<BR/><BR/>Tree MendezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8354759365640532487.post-25097261466604316692007-06-13T08:41:00.000-05:002007-06-13T08:41:00.000-05:00Dude, I want to recommend you run letters from oth...Dude, I want to recommend you run letters from other people like this one through a simplified text editor.

You guys are truely some of the funn...Ha Ha Ha!!!! You guys are truely some of the funniest people that I have had the displeasure "meeting". What do you do for a living that allows you so much time to write and send letters on behalf of someone, who over the past year or so, has brought so much discredit upon himself, the Marine Corps and the Nation? I'd like to know so that too can be a worthless lump of dough and still make enough money to survive.<BR/>You people do understand that Adam Kokesh illeagally smuggled a pistol home from Iraq? You people do understand that Adam Kokesh wore his Desert Digital Uniform, while still a memeber of the Individual Ready Reserve, to a "protest"? You people do understand that when confronted about it, Adam Kokesh told a commissioned officer to "go fuck yourself". These three things are massive violations of either DoD regulations or the UCMJ and yet you still support him. Why? He has done nothing but screw up and now he's angry that everone is out to get him. I don't get it, I thought that people were supposed to be punished when they did wrong, not supported. Do you also support people who run stop signs, rape children, or murder people? Why not jump on their cause too? They need support just like Adam.<BR/>Now, for all of you idiots who think that the UCMJ doesn't apply to members in the IRR, I have news for you. How the fuck do you think the government got the discharge to stick if Adam isn't subject to the UCMJ, and then had his appeal turned down? I know, I know, it was a part of the giant vast right wing conspirecy that is making up rules just to "selectively silence" those vets who speak out agaist the war, and in all honesty, who no one listens to anyway. The fact of the matter is that the UCMJ is applicable to members of the IRR; however, memebers of the IRR are NOT subject to courts martial, or Non Judicial Punishment (NJP) while not on orders. That's why Kokesh could only receive a OTH for his actions. Not to mention the fact that he wasn't charged with anything. The only why that the Marine Corps could punish him was with an OTH or some other type of discharge based on the fact that he violated articles of the UCMJ and DoD regs. That's the misconception and flat out lie that Adam and his goons want you to believe, and you people just tow the line like the usefull idiots that you are.
