Kokesh on Russia Today

| November 7, 2008

Now that President Bush is about to become a chapter in our nation’s history, and we’re all about to move along, it seems that Adam Kokesh is trying to move on, too. While the rest of us were watching the election results Tuesday night, Kokesh was interviewing on a live feed with Russia Today and criticizing the new President-elect to our new potential enemies, without Obama having done anything yet.

A viewer might get the idea that we’ll never live up to Kokesh’s standards. He wants veterans taken care of (like all of us want), an immediate withdrawal from Iraq (lest we be able to prove to the world that we have the resolve to defeat enemies) and reparations for the people of Iraq (I guess giving them a shot at Democratic rule and rebuilding their infrastructure and rebuilding their oil industry isn’t enough) – but then everyone is trying to stick their hands in my pockets these days, why should Kokesh be any different..

Actually, the interview is eight minutes long, but if an editor cut out everything he repeated, it would have ended up being about 2 minutes. Kokesh claims that veterans records were turned up in dumpsters outside of the VA – but there’s not even a conspiracy website that documents that charge. he claims there are 650,000 veterans awaiting adjudication on their disability claims. According to the VA’s own website (PDF);

As of September 2007, 223,564 Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) veterans filed for disability claims, 89% received claims decisions and 11% are waiting for claims decisions.

So I don’t where he gets that 650,000 number. And if he was so worried about the VA adjudication time for veterans, him and the other freaks at the IVAW tree house wouldn’t be saving their urine in a jar and trying to process phony claims for uranium poisoning. This is from his blog entry on Oct 2;

I came home today to find a letter from the Department of Veterans Affairs with my urine test results for depleted uranium. “Your total urine uranium level is within normal limits.” I had no idea there was such a thing as “normal limits” for uranium in a person’s urine. This was not very reassuring.

The letter also said that there was not enough uranium in my urine sample to determine if it was from “natural sources” or depleted uranium sources.

So while him and his buddies are complaining about the VA’s processing of claims, Adam and his pals are clogging the system up with their ignorant paranoia.

His puppetmasters, the VVAW, sold themselves out to the Soviets.

So it’s not unexpected that Elvis would follow suit.

Wonder if got any advice from Thompson Bradley on how to collaborate with America’s enemies?

“Your total urine uranium level is within normal limits.”

That’s the only normal thing about Elvis.

Unfortunately Elvis’s serum acorn level is elevated. That’s what happens when you are a squirrel.

Frankly Opinionated

Kokesh is a dipshit- no more credible than dumbass hollywood actors like Sean Penn and his sinking rescue boat. They don’t know from shit, and neither do the dipshits like Kokesh. Is he pissed that he got passed over for secretary of peace? Not even worth a two beer discussion.

I’m not sure about the dumpster, but there was a recent article in the Army Times about veteran’s records being discovered in the shredder pile at the VA.
