Mother Jones on Oathkeepers

In the comments, BOHICATwentyTwo left this link to a Mother Jones article about the Oathkeepers. It was written by Justine Sharrock who visited us last year when she erred in writing an article about Adam Kokesh. Sharrock quotes folks like Glen Beck and Lou Dobbs as they praise the Oathkeepers, but I think Beck and […]

An open letter to New Mexico voters

There’s a letter going around the internet that’s an open letter to the voters of New Mexico warning them of IVAW’s Adam Kokesh. I’ll lend my voice to it. Bubba of What Bubba Knows sent it to me first – he posted it on the Gathering of Eagles website. Our buddies ConcreteBob and DanNY posted […]

As if you need another reason to dislike Matthis

Someone sent me this video of Matthis Chiroux talking to a group of snooty kids in some Long Island educational organization. It’s actually the Woodhull Institute for “ethical leadership” so, boy is Matthis out of his depth. This is from their “About” page; The Woodhull Institute for Ethical Leadership is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, nonsectarian educational […]

Carl Webb news

He probably enjoys this kind of publicity, but I’m going to do my best to continue to remind IVAW why they booted Carl Webb last year. Their membership punishments tend to be brief. So here’s some screen shots of a conversation Webb had with some veterans somewhere that someone sent to me just to hold […]

What the Hell do you know about Afghanistan?

I caught wind of a little presentation that the Chicago chapter of IVAW was giving in the Windy City next month entitled “What the hell do you know about Afghanistan?“. Apparently, it’s designed to inform us woefully ignorant Americans about Afghanistan. But here’s their press release about the event; Iraq Veterans Against the War present […]

Kokesh takes a page from the Obama campaign

Remember during the 2008 election, the Obama campaign had to put up a web page to fight the so-called mistruths about their candidate? Well, former or current IVAW member Adam Kokesh thought he ought to do it, too for his campaign in New Mexico. Let’s take a look at it; 1. “Adam Kokesh never served […]

The post in which TAH defends IVAW’s Kokesh

I really hate to do this – defending Adam Kokesh, member of IVAW and congressional candidate in New Mexico is probably my least favorite thing. But, I also hate it when people don’t tell the truth inadvertently or otherwise. Free Republic and American Patriots Against Kokesh have a thread questioning Kokesh’s Iraq vet creds. They […]
