Senate GOP Candidate Questions Rival's (Mark Kirk) Sexuality

[wndycty]

Craig Dellimore Reporting

CHICAGO (WBBM) -- A Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate says he is blanketing the state of Illinois with radio advertisements that call a rival's sexuality into question.

Senate candidate and Internet Columnist Andy Martin plans to meet with reporters Monday afternoon to discuss his new ad campaign, which even he acknowledges, airs rumors about Congressman Mark Kirk. In a press release, Martin quotes conservative Republican commentators discussing rumors that Kirk is gay.

Martin says homosexuality is not the issue. He says it is hypocrisy, alleging that Kirk doesn't tell the voters who he really is.

Mark Kirk campaign manager Eric Elk says the ad is not true and is degrading to the political process. He says the people of Illinois deserve better.

1. Who cares if he is gay or not?

Oops, I know the GOP cares.

2. LOL the pubs go crazy with their phobias.

I'm looking at Hoffman for senate. Downstate he's gathering some steam.

3. Scary that a politician would feel so safe in gay-baiting so blatantly. Is Martin done abusing kids?

4. what a pig. nt

[nevergiveup]

5. Gay or straight, Mark Kirk is a fraud.

He is also likely to be our next Senator. As of the moment I am not seeing a Democrat who could beat him unless he drifts far far right in the general which is not likely. Illinois, although blue, still loves its centrist politicians especially when it comes to governors and U.S. Senators.

6. Andy Martin, noted anti-semite?

Why am I unsurprised.

Of course, Mark Kirk is a piece of shit, too.

7. Gosh. Where have I heard this rationale before?

>>>>Martin says homosexuality is not the issue. He says it is hypocrisy, alleging that Kirk doesn't tell the voters who he really is.>>>>

Oh... that's right: HERE!

8. When did Martin stop beating his wife again? nt

[LeftishBrit]

9. Andy Martin?

Doesn't he also spread all sorts of vile racism and antisemitism as well as this piece of homophobia? I hope he is not a serious candidate.

10. Andy doesn't have a PRAYER of winning the Republican nomination...

Andy Martin says it’s time to bring down the curtain on Orly Taitz’ "birther" circus

2009-08-06 18:44:06 - Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin says Orly Taitz has shown she is neither a “birther” nor a “doubter;” she is a nut case and an incompetent lawyer. Martin says he may be the “Godfather” of the “birther” movement but he disassociates himself from forged documents and delusional claims.

Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin says two people created the “birther” movement; Barack Obama and Martin

Martin suggests that an Israeli dentist is destroying rational discussion over Obama’s birth certificate and says it is time to “shut down the Orly Taitz circus”
