FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Andy Martin says the Illinois U. S. Senate race is catching up with South Carolina
Why did Mark Kirk run from the media on Monday?
How long does Kirk think he can keep pulling Tom Cruise-style escapes from reporters?
(CHICAGO)(June 22, 2010) Monday morning I finished a column on Mark Kirk and the way his antics are now raising questions in the national media. Afterwards, I headed for lunch and ordered my usual (whole wheat bread, roast beef and Swiss, mayo and mustard, lettuce and tomato). By the time I finished my sandwich Kirk has created another campaign incident.
After speaking to a crowd of 1,000 people, Kirk attempted to flee from the event in downtown Chicago. Kirk was pursued by screaming media calling out his name. Kirk ran through kitchens and back doors, to a waiting SUV that drove off into the traffic.
Weird.
Just about all of Chicago’s media had staked out the MPC event, and all media are reporting on Kirk’s “escape.” The best video is provided by WLS-TV Channel 7:
http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=news/
politics&id=7511629
And, again, national media are following Kirk’s peculiar behavior:
http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/
So what does all this mean? Even I’m starting to get stumped.
Kirk can’t evade the media indefinitely. Up to a month ago, the media were Kirk’s base. People like Charles Thomas and Andy Shaw were his attack dogs. The Chicago Tribune’s editorial board was Kirk’s cheerleading squad.
A month later, Kirk’s personal life is in chaos, his campaign is in a shambles. Kirk’s inflated military career has become a liability and embarrassment. Even Kirk’s “teaching” experience turned out to be illusory. He was even dumped on by his former nursery school.
Kirk has made his bad situation much worse. The word “misremembered” is probably going to be in dictionaries before long.
Why did Kirk run on Monday? How long does he think he can keep escaping from reporters? Beats me.
Later in the afternoon, I got a call from the Pentagon in response to my Freedom of Information (FOIA) request for all of Kirk’s military records. In the coming days the Department of Defense is going to do a “document dump” and sink “Commander Kirk.”
On and on it goes. Who is advising Kirk? With 45 years of experience in Illinois politics I have never seen a worse statewide campaign. The worst thing Kirk could have done Monday was to run, and he ran. Now every event he attends is going to become a “run” until Kirk is caught. Kirk might think he can explain himself to a friendly audience such as the morons at the Tribune editorial board, but there is no assurance even those gullible bozos will want to coddle Kirk any longer (full disclosure: I am not welcome in the Tribune editorial board room).
The Tribune and Sun-Times and all of Chicago’s mainstream media have egg on their face. Rick Pearson, the Tribune’s creepy reporter who accosted me outside the Union League Club in January, will have to go back to hanging around. Maybe he and Kirk can look for a new nursery school together.
Kirk lied for years. He lied about every aspect of his life, even when there was no need to lie. The media did nothing to check out the facts even after I broadcast statewide ads exposing Kirk as a military imposter and I posted an actual document from the Pentagon confirming that accusation. What more did they want for a starting lead? Still, the media slept.
And the jokes keep coming. Everyone has been laughing at Alvin Greene, the South Carolina Democrat who won a primary under questionable circumstances. But we have our own Alvin Greene here in Illinois.
LeAlan Jones is a U. S. Senate candidate who says on his web site he abandoned the “pressurized world of high finance” at JP Morgan Chase Bank to become a Chicago high school football coach. What does he think the U. S. Senate is if not a “pressurized world?” Mr. Jones has no political experience but he is ready to enter the “world” he already rejected. Mr. Jones may not be quite as inarticulate as Alvin Greene but when asked Monday about future planning in the Chicago metro area all Jones could talk about was the ghetto today. Of course, goofy voters elected Barack Obama, so Jones’ lack of seasoning and experience may not be a handicap. Hey, it’s Illinois.
Something crazy and silly is happening in our national life. We have men and women dying in Afghanistan. We have a Gulf that is saturated with muck. But Democrats are attacking BP executives for going sailing, while our own President Obama is off golfing and attending baseball games. Why is it all right for Obama and Biden to play golf, but not all right for British executives to relax?
Obama knows nothing about the military, and nothing about crisis management. It turns out there really is “no drama” in “no drama Obama.” In fact, there’s nothing at all inside Obama, no drama no nuttin’. [Sales pitch: read my book, “Obama: The Man Behind The Mask,” that predicted his meltdown.] Obama is the paper maché president. In a crisis, a commander doesn’t take a vacation every weekend, he or she goes down to the Gulf and takes command.
But Obama’s “Commander-in-Chief” credentials aren’t any more authentic than Mark Kirk’s. And so America and Illinois continue to suffer under the yoke of incompetent and fraudulent leadership.
In the midst of all of this negative energy we have Mark Kirk, who gloats he has “clean” military efficiency reports even though he has been admonished for engaging in political activity while in uniform. Who scrubbed Kirk’s personnel files? There is much, much more to come in the Kirk-Navy scandal.
What’s Kirk’s next escape plan? Hide out with Osama? Lay up in Kandahar until election day? Inshallah.
Stay Tuned for the 2010 version of Mark Kirk’s “Pentagon Papers.”
“Kirk Week” continues. And so does the “no drama” drama. Golf, anyone? Or the Gulf?

Andy Martin: The Man Who Brought Down Mark Kirk and Destroyed Kirk’s Political Career
Palm Beach, Florida news conference Friday June 4th: “Tea Party ‘Takedown’”
"Tea Party Terminator" Andy Martin says Mark Kirk’s political career is over. Thursday Kirk was weeping to Chicago newspaper editors that he "misremembered" by lying about his military record. “Kirk did not ‘misremember’” Andy Martin says. "He suffers from the psychological disturbance of ‘stolen valor.’ Kirk is still lying.”
Andy Martin ran broadcast advertising across the state of Illinois this past January exposing Kirk’s military frauds. Martin placed letters from the Pentagon on http://www.markkirk.us/. “For Kirk to claim he ‘forgot’ his lies is just another line of lying. Kirk lied when he said he was in Afghanistan in January ‘fighting for [Andy Martin’s] rights.’ Mark Kirk has a mental disturbance,” Martin says. “Mark Kirk’s political career is over. He is a closeted gay man that systematically and deliberately lied to Republican primary voters, and was supported by a Chicago media conspiracy of silence.
“It was not until media outside Chicago started exposing Kirk’s lies that Chicago’s corrupt media grudgingly began to tell partial truths about imposter Kirk.” Martin promises to expose more military lies about Kirk and notes Kirk has not yet addressed his bogus claim he was a “CIA agent.”
“WLS-AM’s ‘Don and Roma’ should be run out of town for their lies, misrepresentations and promotion of a military imposter,” Martin says. “Don and Roma have been promoting Kirk-the-imposter to their audience for years, and slighting honesty Republicans in the process.”
PALM BEACH [CHICAGO] NEWS CONFERENCE: Friday, June 4th
Chicago crime fighter Andy Martin is the “man who brought down Mark Kirk”
Tea Party sympathizer Andy Martin “takes down” another crooked Illinois politician and notches another win in his 44 year corruption-fighting career
“Mark Kirk’s political career is over,” Martin says. “Kirk has a mental disorder”
Illinois political corruption expert Martin was the first person to systematically investigate, analyze and disclose Mark Kirk’s stolen valor and closeted personal life.
“How sweet it is,” Martin says. “I told the ‘Tea Party truths’ about Kirk and the morons in the Illinois Republican Party establishment attacked me. Now these losers are stuck with a homosexual military fraud to run as the head of the Republican ticket. Tea, anyone? Delicious.”
“What about Kirk’s claims to have been a ‘CIA agent?’” Martin will ask Friday? “He still hasn’t owned up to that big lie.”
Andy Martin says Mark Kirk is jeopardizing the entire Illinois statewide Republican Party ticket in 2010

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS
ANNOUNCEMENT OF FRIDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN PALM BEACH
Andy Martin says he promised to take down Mark Kirk after Kirk won a rigged February primary; the takedown is continuing with new blockbuster disclosures about the corrupt congressman notwithstanding Kirk’s Thursday “cry-in” to liberal Chicago newspaper editors, all of whom previously endorsed Kirk in February
In another of his Walter Mitty exaggerations Kirk also claims to have been a “CIA agent;” is he still “misremembering” that claim?

(CHICAGO)(June 4, 2010) Chicago crime fighter and anti-corruption crusader Andy Martin will hold a Palm Beach news conference today, Friday, June 4th to claim credit for ending the political career of military imposter/closeted homosexual Mark Kirk.
“Much as the Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times hate to admit it, I took down Mark Kirk,” Martin will state. “Alexi Giannoulias' campaign used my campaign advertising and research as a starting point, and followed through with their own research. I provided the pointers on both Kirk's sexual misrepresentations and on his inflated military career. I filed a DADT complaint against Kirk. It's all out there on my blogs. Kirk can read it and weep.
“I beat the newspapers at their own game, by telling the truth about Kirk while they were lying to their readers. Lynn Sweet, the Sun-Times hack who appears on MSNBC, was a cheerleader for Kirk; she’s now exposed as a complete loser. Kirk had the temerity to tell the bogus Chicago media at the Union League Club in January that he was in Afghanistan ‘fighting for Andy Martin’s rights:’
http://www.thonline.com/article.cfm?id=269173
“What ‘fighting’ did Mark Kirk ever do? He repeatedly claimed to have ‘fought in two wars.’ The man is a complete fraud. His crying fest to editorial writers on Thursday was just another step in his ongoing fraud schemes. Kirk hopes he can salvage his political career. Kirk is Kaput. Deal with it, Kirkster.”
Martin exposed Kirk’s homosexuality and military fraud in radio ads that were broadcast across Illinois beginning on December 28, 2009 and continuing through February 1, 2010. Listen to the ads at: http://www.andyforussenator.com/andys_ads.htm.
[Two of the spots are on the web site, the others are being restored.]
Martin created a media firestorm as Chicago media tried to demonize Martin for telling the truth about Kirk in Martin’s radio ads. Martin also documented his claims of military fraud concerning Kirk by posting documents on Martin’s own anti-Kirk web site [www.MarkKirk.us] showing Kirk had never served in Afghanistan.
“For forty-four years I have been fighting political corruption in Chicago and Illinois politics. The only thanks I have received is a continuing smack in the face from the media. Chicago media have lived a lie for the past half century. Media lies keep crooked Illinois politicians in power. Rick Pearson, a creepy writer at the Chicago Tribune, is a Kirk sycophant. Pearson is now disgraced and exposed for his own corruption.
“I have always worked to find the facts, and searched for the truth, and I did so during the 2009-2010 primary election. But when the truth and facts hit Chicago’s airwaves on December 28th, once again media attacked me for exposing Mark Kirk as one of the greatest frauds in American political history. So far, local media have barely played ‘catch-up’ and only scratched the tip of the iceberg of Kirk’s military fraud. Kirk is 100 times worse than Connecticut’s Richard Blumenthal. Blumenthal lied a few times. Kirk lied about his entire career, for over a decade, over and over again, in his congressional materials, his campaign materials, everywhere and in every aspect of his public career.
“When my senate campaign started broadcasting the facts on December 28th, Chicago’s media morons responded by attacking me for telling the truth about Mark Kirk. What losers. If ever there was an ‘I told you so’ moment in American politics, this is it. I warned Republican voters that they were going to destroy the party if they voted for Kirk, but no one wanted to hear the truth. Well, we have more and more and more ‘truth’ about Mark Kirk to come.
“It’s just beginning.
“Kirk’s military fraud and homosexuality are now jeopardizing the entire statewide and local Illinois Republican ticket. I’ll have more to say about that very shortly.
”Ironically, Channel 7 WLS-TV devoted virtually an entire 90-minute broadcast debate in January to allowing its ‘journalists’ to trash me for running ads telling the truth about Kirk. Channel 7's Andy Shaw and Charles Thomas also owe me an apology. I have a copy of the tape. This is one of the greatest media scandals, and media embarrassments, in recent American media history. The truth was out there in the open, and Chicago media attacked the truth and attacked the truth-teller. Is it any wonder the state of Illinois is dying? That ordinary Illinoisans feel betrayed? In Illinois, the media are as crooked as the politicians.
“Ironically, the only one who paid any attention to me was Alexi Giannoulias. His people were quietly observing my campaign from a distance and taking down everything I disclosed about Kirk. Alexi’s people then did their own additional research and verified the truth of my allegations.
“There is a lesson here for Republicans: pay attention to the truth and the facts. Don’t sweep a candidate’s lies under the carpet and expect to get away with it.
“I promised to take down Mark Kirk, and I have delivered. In my opinion, party loyalty does not extend to promoting political fraud. I support the rest of the Illinois Republican ticket but I will see to it that Mark Kirk is run out of politics.
“There is lots more to come of my anti-Kirk campaign.”
Martin is in Palm Beach visiting relatives. After his news conference he will celebrate with a “tea party at Testa’s” [Restaurant].
Andy Martin is best known around the world as the “Internet Powerhouse” investigative blogger who has exposed many of Barack Obama’s personal lies.
