Panel in KC takes middle course on Ready Reserve corporal, but he vows to fight on, saying rights to free speech are at stake.
A Marine panel split the difference Monday, recommending an immediate general discharge under honorable conditions for embattled reservist Adam Kokesh.

Oops I posted more I was suppose to. Sorry Daily Kos.... I'll keep it to the point and add my comments here.
VFW membership is now split on the war as was the nation maybe four years ago. It is becoming clear that those that sat in jusgement of Adam were not able to hang him for the reasons they attemped to. General Discharge for telling an an official to "respectfully, go F@*k YOPURSELF. instead of uniform issues. was a clear copout.
Adam should be supported all the way the the supeme court. Where he can be cleared of the charge of telling the officicer who was using the UCMJ for polical purposes where to go with his bullshit.
And the court can them address the real issue of the military becoming the mighty hand of George Bush's acts of aggression and funder of ever increasing Cheney's stock options.
I don't think it will get that fare... It will be quietly dissmissed and the Bush agenda will continue until the next disaster when he can use his presidential directives NSPD51 and HSPD20, giving him full-dictatorial powers in the event of a loosely defined "catastrophic emergency."

Then it won't matter who stands up to him. They will be shot or put in one of Haliburtin's retraining camps.
