McKinney is a loose cannon. Her behavior since taking office, both in and out of the news, shows that she will say and do ANYTHING. She is without peer for making unsupportable claims and bringing dishonor to her constituents.
McKinney's recent political gaffes include ASKING Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin-Talal (after the September 11th tragedy) for his $10 Million check, after New York City Mayor Rudy Guiliani rejected the "conditional" contribution. This unbelievably callous act pales by comparison to her more recent assertions that President Bush did not act to stop September 11th (after the CIA reported a generic rumor of a possible airline hijacking--nothing more and no specifics), because a war on terrorism would be good for President Bush's (and former President George W. Bush's) wealthy military friends. Outrageous! Scandalous! Senator Zell Miller has even publicly described McKinney's statements as "loony," and "disgraceful," undoubtedly mirroring the private sentiments of a great majority of people across Georgia and across the United States. In light of McKinney's comments and public behavior, it is most interesting to follow the money to discern exactly who is pouring funds into her campaign coffers.
As far as I'm concerned, she can take her happy little butt over there and stay there with Saddam! Of course, she's too dim to realize that Saddam's planning on ransoming whoever he gets, and will probably go.
Crap! I blew through the code too fast - here it is with the links working (or at least they should).

A grade-A socialist who never saw a third-world Marxist tinpot he would not suck up against; a bleeding heart, big-government promoter of class warfare...still, the one thing I will never forgive the SOB is his paying yet another third-world banana dictator to take our canal. I'm getting steamed all over again just writing this post...
Her neck is bigger in diameter than her head. Linebacker neck and small brain cage.
However, this woman may be more dangerous at this moment as she is in Congress. She is the key pusher of the non profiling of Islamakazis and potential terrorists. She needs to be defeated.
Or a second-world Marxist.
My impression - possibly incorrect, but let's just assume it's not - is that she's from a solidly Demoncratic district. If we assume (and I revolt at doing this, but let's indulge the vile notion for the moment) the election of a Demoncrat from her district is a foregone conclusion, aren't we better off with a completely incompetent, blithering moron Demoncrat like her?
I think you'd get different answers to that question depending on whether you asked Machiavelli, or one of the Founding Fathers... but I'm not sure where *I* stand at all, in this day and age...
Aha! The old disappearing beer trick! Good one : )
If she wasn't potentially treasonous; if she actually represented her district as opposed to some ill-defined district in the Arab world; if she wasn't such an ass with an ass for a father, I'd probably agree with you.
Biggest problem is that I honestly find myself wondering if she's one of these leaks that has been discussed of late. I don't think any of us want a potential enemy sympathiser in our Congress - especially with us about to escalate the war over there to a much more intense level.
