Shout-out for Cynthia McKinney!
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 03:18 AM by UdoKier

The "woman president" poll reminded me of Ms. McKinney, who showed such courage in the wake of 9-11 in being the ONLY member of congress at the time to Question Bushco's connections with the Saudis, and what they actually did on Sept. 11. I love her and was so sad when the republicans put a "former" republican, Majette, on the dem ticket and rammed her in there.

I wish her the best in getting her seat back this year! Rich DUers, how 'bout kicking a donation her way?

1. I don't think many of us are rich, but I'm sure many of us will support
Ms. McKinney. She is one of my heros. She will get it back, if not for BBV and the corrupted machines.

3. Thank you!

I'm glad to see I am not the only one who can see the goodness and decency that RADIATES from every pore on this woman. She TELLS THE TRUTH, ALL THE TIME. It gets her a ton of flack, but she CONTINUES TO DO IT.

I love you, Cynthia.

4. Rock on Ms. McKinney!

May she win this election and she will. But she will also loose(sp?), courtesy of BBV. Just remember one and all, they (the media) started telling us all last week and they will continue on with the mantra, "to close to call". It's over, it is finished and we are done with. It is to close to call, don't you know?

Get over yourselves! It is to close to call. Keep repeating in your minds, in your voting selves, to close to call. God help us all on November the 3rd.

There will be a war.

7. Now, If she'd only
repudiated her father's anti-semitic statements after her last election loss.

8. I don't fault her father for being angry and unsophisticated.
Hell, America LOVES Mel Gibson's anti-semitic movie and doesn't care that HIS dad claims the holocaust never happened.

Why would you continue to flog on four letters uttered in the wake of a defeat that was engineered in an underhanded way by AIPAC and the local GOP? He knew AIPAC was partly to blame, but didn't have the sophistication to tell the truth, that it was a bunch of Likudnik ideologues who didn't like McKinney for attacking Bush and not taking Israel's side on every single issue with the Palestinians.

Here's an article on it, anyway.
