Jack Roeser Speaks for Himself

Posted: January 06, 2010

By Jack Roeser

When there is an unauthorized use of your name, by discredited Senate candidate Andy Martin in this case, the old adage is "don't wrestle in the mud with a pig, you just get muddy and the pig likes it."

However, Martin continues to run his ad, and its subject is so salacious it won't die down.

Martin has a long reputation for running for office, suing people, and making irresponsible statements. I have no connection with Martin and I don't like what he does. I resent his unauthorized use of my name in his ad. WLS radio says they can't legally stop it.

Martin plucked out one of the many bad positions taken by Senate candidate Mark Kirk that I had enumerated. The list includes carbon tax and trade, abortion support, opposition to marriage being one man and one woman, his NARAL support rating, and a rumor of homosexuality which he lifted into his ad and named me as the source.

The rumor has had wide circulation in Washington, D.C. and Illinois. We didn't start it, and mentioned it only in a long list of things that should be cleared up by Mark Kirk before the primary election. The Republican Party should not be again stuck with a scandal such as that of former Florida GOP Congressman Mark Foley which led to extensive Republican loses in 2006. Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert also saw his reputation damaged as a result of his failure to responsibly handle the broad issue of homosexuality and public service.

Roeser wants nothing to do with Martin ad


Andy Martin's political ad questioning the sexual orientation of Mark Kirk, the Republican Party's front-runner in the U.S. Senate race in Illinois, continues to run in the Chicago market. But on Tuesday, local businessman Jack Roeser, who is quoted in the ad, said he is having his attorney look into getting the spot off the radio and/or having his name removed from it.
"I have nothing to do with that SOB," Roeser said about Martin. "His reputation precedes him. I don't like being quoted by him, and I don't support anything he does."
Roeser, founder of Otto Engineering in Carpentersville, also is involved with the nonprofit Family Taxpayers Foundation and is publisher of the for-profit, right-leaning Web site www,Championnews.net.
Roeser said his closest contact with Martin was a few months ago and limited to a phone call. Martin never asked for or sought his permission to include anything he said in any campaign material, Roeser noted.
In the ad in question, Martin says he is "fighting for the facts about Mark Kirk. Illinois Republican leader Jack Roeser says there is a 'solid rumor that Kirk is a homosexual.' Roeser suggests that Kirk is part of a Republican Party homosexual club."
Roeser admitted to making such comments on a radio show, "but they are rumors." And Roeser noted that he doesn't condone anyone talking about their sexuality in public, being a heterosexual bragging about his conquests or a homosexual marching in a gay pride parade. Both are "just plain nuts. Such things should be kept private."

The Champion News Web site does hold a "Kick Mark Kirk to the Curb" section, where readers can "learn more about this 'Republican' only a Democrat could love," and discusses Kirk's "pro abortion, pro homosexual, pro cap and trade, pro spending" views.
Roeser said his attorney had called a radio station about pulling Martin's spot, which it cannot legally do. Chicago's WBBM radio, one of the stations airing the ad, said federal law requires it to provide candidates with reasonable access and run political ads "without censoring them."
Roeser said his attorney also is looking to see if he can stop Martin from using Roeser in the ad without his permission.

As a result of the ad, which began to run after Christmas, the Republican Party already has said it no longer would consider Andy Martin a legitimate candidate.
"His statements are consistent with his history of bizarre behavior and often-times hate-filled speech, which has no place in the Illinois Republican Party," said GOP chairman Pat Brady.
Last week, Kirk campaign manager Eric Elk issued a statement saying the ad "is degrading to the political process. The people of Illinois deserve better." Elk said the ad's allegation that Kirk is gay is not true.
Martin, formerly Anthony Martin-Trigona, has a long record of running unsuccessfully for public office, making unsubstantiated allegations and suing officials and journalists he dislikes. The federal courts have sanctioned him for repeatedly filing frivolous lawsuits.

Andy Martin Attacks Gay Community Again!

Independent Senate Candidate Andy Martin Continues His Gay Bashing Tone of Voice!

In Martin's latest blog titled: "U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin exposes media lies and corruption in Chicago", Martin removes any doubt about his view on the gay community with more of his gay bashing statements. 


After Martin was rightfully blasted by the public and media for his attack ad on December 28, 2009 accusing senate candidate Mark Kirk for being a closet homosexual, he released a statement which read:


 “Let me be clear. Homosexuality is not the issue.
Every person is entitled to privacy, and everyone is
entitled to equal protection of the laws..."



Martin now releases his latest blog with statements like:


"The homosexual scandal in Republican Party politics is just in its early stages."


"Martin says that local media used a crooked local political leader who supports gay bars and Mark Kirk to attack Martin’s campaign, without telling viewers/listeners/readers the truth."

 Well let's look at his last statement.  Does he have a problem with people who support gay bars?  Is there really such a thing as a homosexual scandal?  If so, does Martin believe in a heterosexual scandal?  In my opinion, these are little trigger statements which lead me to believe Martin is attacking the gay community just as he has previously attacked the Jewish community.


Martin continues his blog by saying:


"Pat Brady is a Mark Kirk stooge, and a supporter of holding Republican (John McCain) events in gay bars.  The advertisement which prompted Mr. Brady to come forward and oppose my campaign concerned Mark Kirk's homosexual issues."

"During the 2008 campaign Mr. Brady, as “John McCain leader for Illinois,” sponsored a “bar event” in “Boystown,” the homosexual neighborhood in Chicago. Would viewers/listeners/readers have liked to know Brady had a history of sponsoring homosexual activity in the Republican Party? You be the judge:"

Wow!  If it looks like a rat and it smells like a rat is it not a rat?



Now here's the "Bombshell" as Andy Martin would say:

"...vote no to continuing corruption of the Illinois Republican Party
by former Speaker Dennis Hastert’s homosexual operatives."

"If you want to fight political and moral corruption in Washington,- please vote for me."

 He ends his blog with this:

"MONDAY: Who is John McGovern and what is his connection
to Mark Kirk and the “homosexual GOP culture…in Illinois.”

I guess we will all have to tune in on Monday, January 4, 2010 to see how Martin will blast more holes into the bottom of his already sinking ship.

I do have to side track here and point out a statement Martin made in his blog.  He says:

"Not many real Republicans would support a candidate backed
by a crooked, violent psychopath like Pat Brady."

Crooked, Violent Psychopath.   These are words normally reserved for those describing Martin himself.  Hmmm!

New York Times James Warren Calls Andy Martin "Lightweight"

http://andymartin-conspiracytheory.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-york-times-james-warren-calls-andy.html


...thanks to zealots on its right flank and Andy Martin, a bomb-throwing lightweight.

Mr. Martin is the vessel of the venom. He is a frequent candidate with a history of stridently anti-Jewish comments. As a law school graduate named Anthony Martin-Trigona, he was rejected for entry to the Illinois bar due to a psychiatric finding of a “moderately severe character defect manifested by well-documented ideation with a paranoid flavor and a grandiose character.”

Andy Martin In Contempt of Peace Order 2009?

Is it possible that Andy Martin has violated the Maryland peace order issued against him on August 24, 2009?

Sources tell us that on September 16, 2009, Martin contacted the "Petitioner" of the peace order requesting work from the petitioner. Terms of the peace order require Martin to have no contact "In person, by telephone, in writing, or by any other means." Under those terms, Martin is in contempt of the peace order.

Now, the real question seems to be, is there a willingness of the courts to expedite Martin to Maryland for such a violation? The answer may be yes. It seems Martin has filed suite against three judges in that court and the states attorney for Montgomery County. He claims they are conspiring with Obama operatives against his 2010 Illinois senate campaign by originally ordering a final peace order against him in the first place (you can view Martin's suite at http://andyforussenator.blogspot.com/2009/09/andy-martins-lawsuit-against-washington.html). Would they like to meet the man who claims they are involved in some sort of Obama scheme against him? Maybe.

The bottom line seems to be this; Martin loves to file frivolous lawsuits against anything that moves. This time, it seems a legitimate court order was brought against him and he is now in violation of that order. He should be held accountable for his actions and brought before the court to answer to his actions. Will he learn his lesson? Probably not.

Illinois Senate Candidate, Andy Martin Denied Consumer Fraud Claim Against Maryland Business.

U.S. Senate Candidate,
Andy Martin
Has Lost
Another Battle in His Claim
to "National Conference Tapes"

It didn't take long for the Montgomery County, Maryland Office of Consumer Protection to determine that Illinois Senate candidate, Andy Martin, is up to his old tricks filing frivolous claims which he obviously had no right to file in the first place.

In the case which Mr. Martin claimed that Maryland business owner, Scott Shirley of ADR Productions had stolen the tapes where the company had filmed Martin during his so-called "National Conference on Barack Obama's Missing Birth Certificate and College Records", the complaint was dismissed as having no merit to constitute fraud. Martin had claimed fraud by Shirley and demanded that the tapes, which are the property of ADR Productions, be given to Martin for free. Martin claimed to have been a customer of the production company but it was determined that he actually had never been a customer. "We never had a contract with Mr. Martin and we never had offer and acceptance of any money. The real fraud is Mr. Martin lying about being our customer, which he had claimed, to Consumer Protection and the Better Business Bureau." Shirley stated.

It seems Martin continues to be on the short end of the stick as his conspiracy theory flames seem to be burning out. It was one week ago today that ADR Productions had won a victory in court when they granted a final protection order against Martin for harassment. I'd say it's a 0 and 2 count with only one more strike 'til your out Mr. Martin.

Shirley says he will be glad to offer a sync license for use of the footage contained in the tapes. He estimates that the total cost for the full three hours of tape would run in the area of $10,000. He has also considered just destroying them due to the content contained within the tapes.

Andy Martin...There Is No "Stolen Tape" Conspiracy!

ANDY MARTIN COMPLETELY FABRICATES STORY TO PUT HIMSELF IN THE SPOTLIGHT...

Mr. Martin has fabricated the story of the so-called "Stolen Tapes" The tapes which he refers to are NOT and have NEVER been his property.

ADR Productions was hired by an individual from another state back in March 2009 to film what was titled "National Conference on Barack Obama's Missing Birth Certificate and College Records". The conference turned out to be Mr. Martin talking before 4-6 people in a hotel room in Washington, DC. He outlined his conspiracy theory on President Obama and the State of Hawaii. He announced a boycott of Hawaii and it was over.

Mr. Martin was not a part of the contract between ADR Productions and the client. After ADR Productions fulfilled the contract obligations with the client, Mr. Martin requested that the video footage be edited further to his likings. ADR Production refused to contract with Mr. Martin to work on his project.

Now, keep in mind that the production company owns "Intellectual Property Rights" to anything they film and the original contract was not with Mr. Martin.

Mr. Martin would not take a hint when his calls and e-mails kept going unanswered by ADR. He then started threatening the company with frivolous lawsuits and complaints with the BBB and Consumer Protection. He claims he is the owner of the tapes in question. ADR Productions had no choice but to send a registered letter to Mr. Martin asking him to leave them alone. The owner of the company then had to file a "Peace Order" against Mr. Martin. This is when it got crazy.

Mr. Martin was so upset that he was refused services and issued a peace order that he went off the deep end with a concocted story about how he owned this video footage and it was stolen by the owner of ADR. He claims that the owner of ADR Productions, it’s client, the judge who issued the protective order and the Washington Post, (for covering the story), are all Obama Operatives and now Mark Kirk Operatives working to destroy his run at the Illinois senate in 2010. This reads like a Robert Ludlum book.

This is strictly Mr. Martins way of drawing attention to himself in a time where he is feeling neglected by the world around him. Don’t forget, only 4-6 people showed up to hear his so-called “National Conference”. I would feel neglected too.

The bottom line…Martin has proven he is not playing with all 52 cards in the deck. The tapes are just ramblings of a “mad man” and the tapes belong to the production company which has a great reputation among it’s customers and the Washington Metropolitan area. It was just unfortunate that ADR Productions got involved in the project from the start.

This story really is not as sensational as Mr. Martin would like it to be. I do believe the readers of this information are smart enough to figure out fact from fiction among all of Mr. Martin’s writings and ramblings.

God Bless America.

Andy Martin's Silence

All is quiet on the Andy Martin front. He seems to be licking his wounds for now as he ponders his fate among the sane. Rumor has it that he will be in Maryland soon to face charges of harassment. If this is true, we will find out and give you full details.
