Adam Kokesh: “I fell for that B.S.!”
Adam Kokesh was one of the speakers, on July 17, 2007, at a rally held in the Upper Senate Park, opposite the U.S. Capitol, in Washington, D.C. Mr. Kokesh is with the Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) organization. He is a former member of the U.S. Marine Corps. The purpose of the event was to kick off the “Funding the War is Killing the Troops” campaign. See, grassrootsAmerica4us.org, http://washingtonpeacecenter.org, democracyrising.us and http://www.ivaw.org/ for more background information. After the rally, IVAW members planned to deliver american flags to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC). Prior to the rally, an American flag was delivered on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol by IVAW members to Terry Lierman, chief of staff to the House Majority Leader, Rep. Steney Hoyer (D-MD).

How dare you say …
How dare you say they are safer. Do your research. Estimates between 300,000-1.3 million Iraqis have been killed.
But our media doesn’t report on that. And for people saying we liberated them they are wrong. We funded sadaam hussein with weapons to overthrow IRAN. He used those weapons to kill the Kurds.
And then when Bush went to invade Iraq he was made an enemy. Countless lives lost. To quote Phil Donahue “A young mans life isn’t worth an old mans face.”

So what? Its …
So what? Its unconstitutional. Our constitution and the philosophy of this country’s foundation is clear that the initiation of force is wrong for this country to do. The same way that Communism and Fascism is only differentiated by rhetoric, you Neocons and “liberal” Democrats are just leading us to the destruction of the constitution and a totalitarian state.

Why are you on that ? Blame DC bonehead, the only people we can support, is those that are ALIVE<<<
Nobody has a …
Nobody has a monopoly on truth. What your comment suggests is that there can be no reform for sheep. If one breaks from the herd, well too bad according to you. They must remain with the herd. That attitude is self-defeating in the causes of Justice and Liberty.

irishrealist, the primary concern of American politics is with regards to Americans. That should be blatantly obvious.
So ing what, …
So ing what, its war..The Soviet Union lost in the upwards of 50 million, civilians and soliders. Yea it sucks that people had to die but Iraq is a safer place now than it was in 03. And you look at all these “PTSD” I thank their service. But pushing papers or serving in a rear eachlon unit makes your opinion count less.
FUNDING THE WAR …
FUNDING THE WAR KILLING THE TROOPS, typical american attitude not one single word about the hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis KILLED AND BADLY INJURED.
Hey frEBase1, …
Hey frEBase1, anyone who uses lol in a sentence has neither the brains nor the balls to fight for this country. Something I know a little bit about! All you liberal might be against the war, but the least you could do support us for fighting for your freedom.

You know what USMC stands for… U signed the ing contract. It is considered treason to refuse orders because ever single person in the military signed a contract volunteering to serve.
You are a grunt. …
You are a grunt. You do what you’re told because you don’t know any better.
You are the one that commited treason as well. You participated in an invasion of Iraq which is against our constitution. Iraq did not provoke an attack and was never linked to 9/11 in any way. Also against the constitution. You also have the duty to refuse any illegal orders. Which you did not. Have you ever even read the constitution enough to know what it contains?
That’s the thing, …
That’s the thing, he has the balls to actually live up to the oath he made, while you went over there to kill a bunch of ragheads. The oath, you, he, and every soldier takes is to uphold the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. The only people that have hurt our constitution are those that sent the troops over there, and got rid of habeus corpus, and instituted warrantless wiretaps, etc., etc.
I can’t believe …
I can’t believe this guy has the balls to protest a war that he volunteered for. I volunteered for the same war and I fought with honor and killed as many of those ing terrorists as I could. All you liberal can thank me later for providing your freedom and not ing about it later. I am disgusted, this guy calls himself a Marine he outta be shot for treason.

The American voting machine is broken, before any new blood can enter, the old scumbags have to be ripped out.
