Cynthia McKinney Exposed!

[rs79bm]

I know, we've been putting it to Ms. McKinney for quite some time now, but this article is a must read for anyone doubting McKinney's involvement or intentions. This is for all you doubters out there who pass up her comments as "ignorable" or "fruitless".

The enemy, indeed, is within.

[Drango]

It's worse than we thought. Not only is Rep. Cynthia McKinney, D-Ga., possibly a delusional paranoiac, but she has lots of company as well as admirers, not only among America's poor 'n oppressed -- her beloved constituents -- but among certain anti-American individuals and organizations abroad, also known as terrorists.

The enemy, indeed, is within.

I dislike revisiting a topic so soon -- I wrote a column a few days ago about McKinney's loony charge that George Bush knew about the 9-11 terrorist attacks in advance. By her assertion, Bush effectively is guilty of mass murder and collusion with the enemy, all because he and his pals stood to gain monetarily through defense-related investments.

While I'm still confident that most Americans can readily spot a fool, there are enough "folks," to borrow a Bush euphemism, who think she's right to warrant a worried second glance. As one of her defenders wrote me:

"Some clear-eyed citizens see this woman as an astute observer of the national scene, and as one who has bravely stepped forward to voice the opinion of millions of us who have been denied a voice since President Bush's selection."

Which is to say, the terrorists don't have to win. They've got us working for them. We're the sleep-walking damsel who keeps opening the dadgum basement door even as the audience screams: "No, don't do it. Don't do it!"

We know McKinney is in the basement, working her curious magic on the clueless, but we keep tolerating her anyway. My guess is that McKinney has enjoyed immunity from close scrutiny owing to a sense that she's harmless. She's cute and has a big smile, couldn't hurt a flea. She's black, which means people give her a pass lest they be perceived as racist. She's got a bizarrely gerrymandered district that ensures her race-based longevity regardless of qualifications.

And she's got people from Decatur to Ramallah believing that Bush not only knew about 9-11, but also was behind it. Another e-mailer, a Holy Land tour coordinator with 25 years experience in the Middle East, said she had just spoken with a friend in Ramallah, who regurgitated McKinney's conspiracy theory. She wrote:

"If you see 'Cynth,' kindly tell her that Arab TV networks appreciate her comments for they now have the needed 'proof' that their paranoia is rational."

We've got serious problems, and we need serious people, as fictional President Andrew Shepherd said in The American President. And we no longer can afford to tolerate people like McKinney who should never be taken seriously. Can we stifle her? Nope. Can we impeach her, as I half-jokingly suggested in the previous column? Unlikely.

But we can and should investigate her as passionately as she demands we investigate Bush's "involvement" in the 9-11 terrorist attacks. We might begin with her campaign contributions, available for public viewing on the Web site of The Center for Responsive Politics, a non-profit, non-partisan group that follows the money. (http://www.open secrets.org/indivs/cgi-win/indivsprofile.exe?H2GA11016)

There you'll find names such as Abdurahman Alamoudi, founder and former executive director of the American Muslim Council, who donated to McKinney during the 1999-2000 election cycle. Alamoudi who? Let's roll the tape, provided by the Southeastern Legal Foundation, an Atlanta-based constitutional law firm and policy center that's calling for a congressional investigation of McKinney.

Here's Alamoudi at an October 2000 protest of U.S. policies in the Middle East:

"I have been labeled by the media in New York as being a supporter of Hamas. Anybody [sic] supporters of Hamas here?" he asked a cheering crowd. "Hear that, Bill Clinton? We are all supporters of Hamas. . . . I wish they added that I am also a supporter of Hezbollah."

Hamas and Hezbollah are both on the State Department's official list of terrorist organizations. None of which is to suggest that Cynthia McKinney is a terrorist, or a terrorist sympathizer, or even a socialist rabble-rouser who despises her own country. On the other hand, using McKinney's own talent for inferential dot-connecting, she just might be.

Given that a majority of McKinney's constituents are as loony as she, there is only one scenario by which she will pay a political price for her idiocy. And that is if Zell Miller finally disassociates himself from McKinney & Company by switching parties.

Come on Zell! Do the right thing!

I'm not convinced that Ms. McKinney is capable of hatching such statements on her own. She does, after all, lack in any intellect whatsoever. She must have been fed this tripe and goes about as a trained parrot. Does that make her any less dangerous? No - she is a mouthpiece of terrorists.

There are more McKinneys in Congress than Cynthia and we as Americans are asleep.This has shown since 9-1-1. Most have shown by their absence and not saying anything.Look at all of those who have been missing from the news that were present before 9-1-1.

The links below are from a Google search on democratic socialism. Note, particularly that this search also identifies the "Progressive Challenge Coalition" and "House Progressive Caucus". Guess who is also a member and officer of the House Progressive Caucus--one Cynthia McKinney.

We have a lot of "enemies within." We need to wake up! They have quietly infiltrated, even into power positions. And they have an agenda--which isn't necessarily our best interest.

Can you say "DassHole"?

The McKinney Files....

[joeyman]

I'll bet she got a copy of 911 The Road To Tyranny and she wants to use it to attack her republican opposition. See the movie at infowars.com

Alex Jones wears a tin foil hat. One of my pals here in Austin is corrupted by Jones' conspiracy obsessions. The most laughable of which is the giant owl conspiracy.

[metesky]

Don't forget the traitorous scum at The Progressive Caucus of which Cynthia is an officer and board member.

[metesky]

Oops! Sorry, TG. I see now you already had a hook to the P.C. bums.

"She's black, which means people give her a pass lest they be perceived as racist"

Yes ... thanks to Jesse Jackson, these people think they should be given a pass because they are black. She's obviously on that track, or she wouldn't have had enough nerve to spew his poison.

Besides, I still believe Hillary is behind this - why? Because Hillary wants to plant doubts about the President - because she is planning on running against him in 2004 and she has to start now to try to discourage people from voting for him.

Giant owl conspiracy ? so you have firsthand knowledge that the order of the owl dont exist ? just like the order of the elk or the skull and bones society dont exist ? how bout the kula kali majubi is that a farce too?

I just think before people write off these things as whacko conspiracies they should at least do some reasearch

Did you know that some say in salem massachutsets that christians didnt burn witches it was the other way around interesting theory isnt it if witches burned christians does that explain the kennedys?

At one time in the very short distance during the cold war...

The phase "useful idiot" comes to mind.

Different war, same idiots

Bump for later

You raise a very good point. She rates about 20 watts on a good day.

McKinney BUMP. Love that new poll with 70% calling for her removal from sensitive house committees.

Should Rep. Cynthia McKinney be suspended from sensitive committees like the House Armed Services Committee and the International Relations Committee?
Yes. 72% 165659
No. 28% 63079
Total Votes 228738

McKinney poll

Freep of that poll

You know, people might take you more seriously if you had ANY kind of familiarity with grammar and punctuation.
