I was watching the Foxecution of Cynthis McKiney
and it occurred to me...the fox panel made more nasty comments about her in a 3 minute segment than they have have talked about Bug-man Delay in total. So there you have it. '06 elections are coming around. The pukes are about to lose control of the House. They need a black poster child to focus their hate.

My prediction: This thing will be dragged out for months. There will be NO video. The actual guilt or innocense is irrelevant.

1. They can't win on their own merit.
It bums me that I know people who do not see this.

2. It's a pity that the news in this country has turned into a soap opera.
In the scheme of things, this doesn't matter one damn bit. It seems like we are always getting a lethal dose of distraction and diversion from the things that are of true importance of the msm.

3. I agree with you
Meanwhile those who continue to torture or suck our tax money up for personal use
are safe from scrutiny. Oh, the shame.

4. Will Cynthia McKinney be the Willie Horton of 2006?
I don't know, but watch the Bush demagogues try.

26. Don't know, but the African
Americans(and mucho Haoles) are already extremely PISSED at the bushco's treatment of Blacks and Poor People in this country via the big BUST with Katrina.

I say "Bring IT!", fauxsux.

9. And from some the posts I have been reading on here, I am pretty
Edited on Sat Apr-01-06 03:01 PM by IsItJustMe
disappointed.

The story goes like this:

Well if what is being reported is true, then I am upset about her reaction.

Tell you what's wrong with this thinking:
1) It's being reported throught the msm (we all know how full of sh!t they can be).
2) If you think like this, I sure the hell don't want you on my jury trial.

It reminds me of the Repuke mentality of hang em high before you even have the facts. It sucks.

With supposed liberal friends like this, who the hell needs enemies.

10. Sometimes you just have to wonder
WTF some people are thinking.
The pukes commit felonies by the
boat load. Then they flaunt their atrocities with
nail hard hubris.

How can anyone demand the prosecution
of this freedom fighter in a trivial (and unproven)
matter such as this? Mind boggling.

11. Not I sir. She is one hell of lib, I love her. She speaks truth to the
fricken idiots up there in congress. And to be honest, even if she acted horrible, She didn't do it damnit!

That's my story and i'm sticking to it, if you know what I mean?

12. "Some" DUer want to hang her before the fact.
MS "Corporate" M has been lying to all of us for past 5 1/2 years and I cannot believe, people are trusting MSM words as God-send.

15. Yeah, I don't think us libs need to be doing the RW msm job. We need to
stick together and let them do their own mud raking.

For understandable reasons - from their point of view, that is.

16. She's not your everyday politition. She tell's it like it is and lets the
chips fall where they may. I love to see that. And she is one of the few that are like that.

17. The fact is McKinney was in the wrong and should apologise.
The cop was only doing what he is paid to do. Maintain security in the Congress building. McKinney was totally out of line in her response. She should apologise and move on. As it is she is just handing the Repukes the kind of distraction they are desperate for.

19. Where is PROOF?
Edited on Sat Apr-01-06 03:59 PM by Rainscents
And by the way... She did apologized for "Incident" You're hanging her before the fact.

BTW: Mike Malloy is meeting with her at Atlanta rally this weekend and he told all his listener ( Friday night ), he will find out the FACT and report it on Monday night radio show.

28. She apologised "for the incident".
She did not apologise for what she did. I have absolutely no idea of the kind of "proof" you have in mind. If this had been a Repulican what would the reaction be then? "Republican Congressman assaults policeman for doing his job"! The "facts" are clear. She admits she was not wearing her identity card. End of story.

29. Please explain to me...
Why this pin carries so much more ID weight than her official congressional ID card that she DID show t to this officer?

If we can get past this little tidbit, maybe then, we can then go straight to the gas chamber.

31. When did she show thisID card? Before or after?
If before she is in the right. Except for the punch of course. If after, she is totally wrong and is guilty of assaulting a police officer in the execution of his duty. If before, this officer has a lot of explaining to do.

32. It seems that you are admitting you ...
have no inkling of anything about this incident. Makes one wonder why some are so quick to condemn her and end the story there.

Just ask potential jurors if they watch Fox News . . . if they do, they're out . . .

24. Their mirror is a white Jesus photo or a poster of Bush.
As long as the reflection does not reflect objective reality, they really don't care what they see when they look in the mirror. When I hear that someone is a Faux viewer...I ignore them and move on. Sometimes I'll fuck with them to see how ingrained the indoctrination has taken. I'm never surprised by a wavering or response to reasoned argument. Simply put. Faux viewers are unquestioning idiots.

22. They are doing her a favor.
I remember when we slaughtered Trent Lott twisting a few words out of context to paint him as a flaming racist. All it really did was save him some money back home on re-election because those people know darn well Lott is no racist. I live in McKinney's district. There's no doubt about her being re-elected. All this face time just saves her some money on her campaign and emboldens black voters the nation over.

What the right wing is trying to do is to rally their racist base.
