It was his place to summarily judge the 1990 McKinney ( bright & personable)

all of a sudden he's outta the judgment business.

>>And the reason she needs more protection than the President is what?
Good Grief.
She's going to one very unhappy woman when she's just an ordinary civilian again.<<

In her mind, all police in the country are conspiring against her...

Daschle/McKinney '08!

Deeply saddened and extremely maddened...

[She's going to one very unhappy woman when she's just an ordinary civilian again.]

An AP article by Errin Haines suggests that she will not be an ordinary civilian if her supporters are able to "handle" her properly:

http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/08/09/D8JD65V00.html

"Cynthia McKinney is loved nationally, locally and internationally," said State Rep. Tyrone Brooks of Atlanta, president of the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials. "I expect her to move to the international scene, especially as it relates to peace, justice and environmental issues. This is going to elevate her to another level."

If she's going to work on issues of peace, she and her people are going to have to refrain from fisticuffs with police and reporters :}

Last year, an outfit called the Peacewomen Project nominated 1,000 women across the globe for the Nobel Peace Prize, and Cynthia McKinney made the list of US nominees.

Your tagline should read "Carpe Sharpei." Carpe diem" is Latin and means "seize the day."

With connections like these maybe Homeland Security should check HER out.

Thank God...this racist loon has been defeated. There appears with many blacks there's lots of violence surrounding them. McKinney is NO different.

"...I recalled the bright and personable Cynthia McKinney I knew back in 1990"

Jeez, I hate it when they go off their meds!

Then we heard shouting in the newsroom itself, from where station officials were phoning 911.

That would have been me and about five other folks in the newsroom...

Click to watch video after Cynthia's defeat.  Her 'New Black Panther' bodygaurds are not friendly with reporters, white people and jews.

I'll say the same thing that I said that night as I sat in the back end of that same newsroom -- "Un-f***in'-believable..."

I don't think I have ever seen a more surreal experience -- just before Matt and company heard the commotion from the newsroom, we -- in the newsroom -- heard the reporter at the McKinney party yelling that someone was attacking a cameraman and to call 911...

The next ten minutes were spent trying to get a handle on when she would come out, and what else we needed to do to both take care of our people there, as well as getting the speech -- whenever she decided to waltz her happy butt out there -- both on-air and online.

The entire situation was incredibly surreal, and unbelievable to the "nth" degree...

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Well c'mon dude, let's hear what you know. You've never held back before telling us about your newsroom/interview experiences. Did you see the raw footage?
