It wouldnt be an election cycle without Cynthia McKinneys lunacy, and fortunately she hasnt shied away from providing it. Here, we watch as the Green Partys endorsed presidential candidate accuses National Guard soldiers of committing 5,000 murders of prisoners in the wake of Hurricane Katrina:
If you think that this is the kind of insanity one normally hears from Alex Jones, well youd be right. The conspiracy theorists on the Left and the Right tend to embrace each other at a certain point, just south of rationality. For these people, little points like evidence and common sense provide no obstacles at all to paranoia and fantasy.
For instance, lets skip past the extremely weak sourcing McKinney uses to make her charges and go right to some obvious points. Wouldnt the families of these 5,000 prisoners wonder what happened to them? And which prisoners, specifically, have not been accounted for? At least a few names of people who were in Louisiana state custody before Katrina and then not in custody afterwards would provide a starting point for any investigation. And its possible to lose a few bodies in the Louisiana swamps, but not even that legendary territory could hide 5,000 of them at once without a few of the locals taking notice.
Normally, wed dismiss this kind of idiocy, but this is no ordinary idiot. McKinney is a former member of Congress and a candidate for President on a party that wants to claim national legitimacy. This shows the intellectual level of the Greens, but it also puts in play yet another baseless conspiracy theory about Katrina and its aftermath. Well be hearing this lie for the next few years, thanks to McKinney.
That wench was my Congresscritter for a few years. Same constituency that votes in Hank “Guam Tipping” Johnson today.
I miss Cynthia and her anti-Semitism, though she did pop up out of a sewer a couple months ago with another couple quips about Jews, Trump, conservatives and “I’ll be back” crap.
He father is just as anti-Semitic as is Mel Gibson’s. Perhaps they should be and create a joint “Black/White Lives Matters but those of Jews Don’t Movement”
How much bigger has she gotten?
It’s always sumpin.
Are McKinney and Mad Max twins?
While Alex Jones is friendly with Cynthia McKinney, he has never said anything remotely like this accusation.
Re How much bigger has she McKinney gotten?
Are you talking about her mouth, her head and/or her ass?
They didn’t shoot ‘em; they left them locked up and they drowned.
All I remember about McKinney is her manic eyes...
