Andy Martin
Andy Martin, a man self-described as “the leader of the national anti-Obama movement, legendary Chicago corruption fighter, internet columnist and Obama author,” will hold three Honolulu news conferences today, according to a news release posted on his blog, Contrarian Commentary. Martin claims that, during these news conferences, he will make public “major news” on what he calls “Barack Obama’s secret truths” that are “sure to roil the presidential campaign.”
During the first news conference, to be held at the Hawai’i State Capitol in front of the statute of Queen Lilioukalani (rear of building), he promises to disclose the findings of his research team in Hawaii concerning the secret truths about Barack Obama. The news release lists 2:30 p.m. as the scheduled time of the news confernce, and I must assume that’s local time — or 7:30 p.m. CST.
A news release will follow — apparently, this counts as his second news conference — as will an announcement of new filings at the Hawai’i Supreme Court later today (the legal issues before the Court are entirely separate and distinct from, although possibly related to, the “secret truths”).
Finally, according to Martin, a news conference will be held late today and will reference the late U. S. Sen. Hiram Fong, a man who, according to Wikipedia, was a Republican and “the first Hawaii-born individual to run for president of the United States, being followed by Democrat Patsy Mink in 1972 and Barack Obama of Honolulu in 2008.”
More after 7:30 p.m. CST.

Wonder if this has anything to do with Obama’s trip back to Hawaii to see grandma?

Debbie,
Whether it does or not, I think this guy will spin it that way. On his web site, he mentions Obama delaying his arrival into Honolulu after learning that he (Martin) was in Honolulu. If true, makes you wonder about the true objective of Obama’s trip to Hawaii. ???

Is that the grandmother he denigrated for being a “hick” during the primary?

Moeursalen — Yep, she’s living under a bus just off Waikiki Beach.
