Adam is disgraceful. I regret the modest help I gave his campaign. Never again. Even after he made himself radioactive by acting out at the McStain convention, the Pauls supported his campaign and endorsed him, even while Rand was running. They didn't have to help such a longshot who had damaged himself so badly. It was, after all, his own fault that his discharge status was downgraded. He is dead to me.
lol.....did you watch to the end? The same guy who was claiming that the Mittins endorsement is the best way to go is stating in an earlier recorder that "If Mitt Romney is the nominee, Conservatives will have to find a new party." He sure changed his tune on that, but that last line is the truth of it. I don't get how Adam is disgraceful. Please expand on this line of thinking.
I would like to know that too. Adam Kokesh is, in my mind anyway, one of the bright lights of the freedom movement. Like Ron in many ways but a better speaker.
He threw it away with carelessness. Now he dances with Lefties at national monuments to get arrested. I think his gig at Russia Today ended badly too. He's flamed out. Soon his only path will be as a Lefty tool, like John Kerry was. The problem is that Kokesh's discharge and antics will work against him in a way that it didn't against Kerry.
And why didn't it work so against Kerry? Do you suppose Kokesh should have dressed like a different branch of service for his demonstration?; like Navyman Kerry did when impersonating a soldier -- even before Congress -- while accusing our Military of being war criminals, among his other protest antics. Edited for italic and spacing.
My favorite part of Kerry's antics was when he threw his medals at the Pentagon in protest with the cameras televising it. Except he threw someone else's medals (probably replicas or stuff he bought at a pawn shop). He still proudly displays his own medals and the media never asks him how he still has them even though they saw him hurl them forty years ago at Da Evil Pentagon. Kokesh's street theater was poorly thought out and executed. Had he waited a few more months, they couldn't have touched him. He should have known better. After all, unlike Kerry, he had no powerful sponsors to pull strings and cover his back.
I think Kerry was still a Naval Reserve while actively protesting the war in his soldier-impersonation costume. Seems he likely had some big brass at the Pentagon covering for him too.

Along with Teddy the Swimmer and some Lefties who saw the utility of a decorated volunteer vet carrying water for their cause. They played it to the hilt.
