NHGOP Canceled Andy Martin's Speaking Engagement

POSTED: 5:28 pm EST February 21, 2011

... Andy Martin, from Illinois, is promising a lawsuit and pay back after the state GOP canceled his Deering speaking engagement following allegations that he made anti-Semitic remarks.

Martin is the founder of the Birther movement, which challenges President Barack Obama's birth certificate and birth place.

"In Chicago, we play for keeps, and we play for real. New Hampshire Republicans and <GOP Party Chair> Jack Kimball isn't used to that kind of stuff," he said.

1. Andy Martin is nuts even for a birther
Martin likes to think he founded the birther movement. He didn't. He refers to himself as "Internet Power House" Andy Martin. He has run unsuccessfully for about every office imaginable. He tried to run for Senate in Illinois in 2010 but his petition lacked a few signatures. He only had one, his own. His real name is Anthony Martin-Trigona. His latest stupid claim is that Obama's real father is Frank Marshall Davis. He filed a lawsuit to try to get Gov. Lingle in Hawaii to release birth documents that was dismissed. He then organized a boycott of Hawaii, which he promptly broke himself to go to Hawaii in search of "evidence".
