Please, bid in shekels or dollars.
Ms. McKinney may learn to appreciate her United States citizenship after this experience, and stop envying Castro, Chavez, and every other country.
Here is a capsulized summary of Ms McKinney's history: Cynthia McKinney - one busy woman June 19, 2006 by chrisgraham augustafreepress.com Column by Max Friedman:
Cynthia McKinney - One Busy woman
In between hitting cops and and playing the race card, wacko Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, D-Ga., keeps busy with the left on a number of subjects. Just pulling her file is a full day’s work, but it is worthwhile keeping track of her activities if only to prove that she is not only a racist leftist, but also one who support all types of radical causes, especially if they are anti-American, pro-Communist, anti-Israel and anti-death penalty.
Never one to miss an opportunity to stick it to Israel, McKinney put a “Tribute to Rachel Corrie” in the “Extension of Remarks” in the Congressional Record of March 16, 2006. Corrie, as some readers know, was a leftist radical who helped protect Palestinian terrorists and their supporters from the Israeli authorities and the military. She was accidentally killed in 2003 by an Israeli bulldozer when she tried to stop it from razing a Palestinian home that was suspected of hiding terrorists/tunnels. Corrie never denounced the Palestinians’ announced goals of destroying Israel, not did she denounce and act to stop the Palestinians from rocketing, bombing and shooting Israeli civilians who also tried to work in their gardens, to live peacefully in their homes, and to eat out at a café without being blown up.
Corrie also was a member of International Support Mission, a radically far-left, pro-Palestinian support group who like to act as human shields but whose members have also taken part in terrorism inside Israel. (See: “Solidarity With Terror”, Lee Kaplan, July 2, 2004, at www.frontpagemagazine.com and as well as other FPM articles specifically about Corrie, using her name in the “Search” box at the site.)
Meanwhile, Rep. McKinney has also been busy supporting Communist front groups and other leftist causes, including the following:
Signer of “The Call” entitled “World Can’t Wait: Drive Out the Bush Regime”, in support of the Feb. 4, 2006, demonstration in Washington, D.C. The group “World Can’t Wait” is a newer Communist “united front” formed by avowed Maoist leader C. Clark Kissinger of the Revolutionary Communist Party and people from The Alliance for Global Justice, another leftist united front of Communists, Marxists, socialists and left-liberals.
Interestingly, as found in the WCW ad that appeared in The Washington City Paper on Feb. 3, tax-deductible donations for the WCW organization could laundered thru the AGJ, an old technique the far left has used successfully for fund-raising since the days of the Vietnam protests.
The ad had the following side-box information regarding donations. “Tax deductible donations of $100 or more to support the educational activities of World Can’t Wait can be made by check payable to ‘Alliance for Global Justice’, earmarked ‘for WCW’ in the memo on the check. Mail to World Can’t Wait, 305 Madison, #1166, New York, NY, 10165. The Alliance for Global Justice is a 501 (c)(3) organization.
McKinney’s fellow signers of “The Call” include a “Who’s Who” of the radical left including Edward Asner, Harry Belafonte, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., Jane Fonda, Jessica Lange, Rep. Major Owens, D-N.Y., Sean Penn, Harold Pinter, Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., Susan Sarandon, Rev. Al Sharpton, Cindy Sheehan, Martin Sheen, Studs Terkel (the famous writer and identified member of the Communist Party USA), Gore Vidal, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., Cornel West, Rev. Phi Wheaton and retired professor Howard Zinn.
With a few exceptions, the ad list included the most hard-core left members of Congress (Conyers, McKinney, Rush, Owens and Waters); the spoiled cream of the hate-America leftist writers (Pinter, Terkel, Kurt Vonnegut and Vidal); two of the top Marxist professors around, West and Zinn; the entertainment/Hollywood left of Asner, Belafonte, Fonda, Lange, Penn, Sarandon, producer John Sayles, Martin Sheen and assorted looney-tunes such as Al “Tawana Brawley hoax” Sharpton, Cindy “Moonbat” Sheehan (who apparently didn’t buy a tombstone for her fallen soldier son whom she supposedly dotes on), and Vagina Monologues creator Eve Ensler, who is no Shakespeare.
However, McKinney has always kept good company with the America-hating left, so her being a speaker at the earlier Sept. 24, 2005 “The Whole World Is Watching” anti-war demonstration in Washington, D.C. ,was just another accomplishment in her long line of anti-Americanism.
The sponsor of this event was ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War & End Racism), a broad front created by the Stalinist, North Korea-supporting Workers World Party. This writer watched the protest on TV, and it was boring as was another one of theirs which I personally attended.
Among the speakers were such leftist luminaries as George Galloway, the anti-Semitic, pro-Saddam member of the British Parliament, Cindy Sheehan, Ralph Nader, Jessica Lange, convicted terrorism-supporter attorney Lynne Stewart, good old Al Sharpton, the leftist father of Iraqi terrorist murder victim and humanitarian Nicholas Berg, pro-illegal immigration activist Macrina Cardenas (Mexicanos Sin Fronteras), radical singer Patti Smith (with a voice that could drive the snakes out of Ireland), and the WWP leaders who hid under other organizational identities, including Larry Holmes, Brian Becker, Gloria La Riva, et cetera.
We should not forget former U.S. attorney general Ramsey Clark, a cofounder of another WWP front, International Action Center, which then created ANSWER. Clark’s major affiliation with the WWP began sometime in the late 1980s, though he had supported their earlier front known as PAM (Peoples Anti-War Mobilization), and a slew of other Communist Party fronts, including those of the CPUSA and the Socialist Workers Party (Trotskyites) since the late ’60s.
Terrorist support groups present through speakers included the old congressionally cited CPUSA legal front, the National Lawyers Guild (now an amalgam of Stalinists, Maoists, Castroites and assorted New Left Marxists/socialists); the Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation, led by WWP front supporter Mahdi Bray; Elias Rashmawi, a Marxist in the National Council of Arab Americans and ANSWER activist; Michel Shehadeh, “L.A. 8 defendant, a Palestinian activist framed COINTELPRO-style” (he was an avowed supporter of the Marxist terrorist PFLP, Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, led by Marxist George Habash); Network in Solidarity with the People of the Philippines, a pro-NPA Marxist support group; Nicaragua Network, a Marxist-oriented pro-Sandinista group; Bayan USA, another Marxist-oriented Filipino group, and the Socialist Front of Puerto Rico, a Marxist-oriented group.
Rep. McKinney keeps some interesting company, doesn’t she?
In clearing off my desktop, I found an old flier issued by the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, the American Friends Service Committee, and Death Penalty Focus announcing a conference “Committing to Conscience: Building a Unified Strategy to End the Death Penalty”, that was held Nov. 16-19, 2000, in San Francisco.
Participating organizations and individuals included the usual leftist suspects such as the American Civil Liberties Union, Amnesty International, Murder Victims Families for Reconciliation and the Religious Organizing Against the Death Penalty Project. Featured speakers listed on the brochure included some of our old leftist friends, including:
- Mike Farrell, an old FMLN and Sandinista supporter from the ’80s.
- Danny Glover, the latest in a series of far-left black actors who follow the Communist line in supporting Castro, Chavez, the Sandinistas, et cetera. (Others included the leader of this group, the late actor and Stalinist/member of the CPUSA, Paul Robeson; the late Ossie Davis and his wife Ruby Dee; and our “Day’O” man, Harry Belafonte.
- Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., whose far-left activities go back to the 1970s on Vietnam.
- Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wisc., the publicity seeking political nutcase from Wisconsin who has been eating too much cheese for his own good.
- Bianca Jagger, ex-wife of Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger, and longtime supporter of the Marxist Sandinista Front for the Liberation of Nicaragua and its Communist leader, Daniel Ortega.
- Dolores Huerta, a co-founder and longtime leader of the United Farm Workers of America (along with the late Cesar Chavez). She was also a speaker for the WWP/ANSWER protest of Sept. 24, 2005, one of among dozens of Communist fronts and causes she has supported since the ’70s.
- Angela Davis, our resident Communist professor and leader of the CPUSA-split away faction known as the Committee of Correspondence.
What can one say about Cynthia McKinney that scores of books on abnormal psychology haven’t said? She is so far left that even some Communists are embarrassed by her actions, but this doesn’t stop the cell-phone wielding cop-basher from being reelected to Congress, from acting and sounding like a complete fool (”inappropriate touching”), being an anti-Semite (she gets it from her Jew-hating father), and from being a disgrace to American politics.
But then, again, looking at some of her congressional associates, as well as fellow leftist co-speakers/sponsors at events she participated in, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that she is the perfect poster-child for the “Loony Left”.
I think they need to keep searching that boat and don’t stop till they find drugs and weapons.
Pay hell shoot her. She is a war crime enemy.
Too bad she won’t be harshly interrogated.
Give her to Hamas to sell her for a sex slave. Maybe the Hamas Dollar store??
Pray for America
Dress her up as an Israel Defense Forces Colonel. Sit her in a lawn chair within sniper range of Gaza. And - Bingo! Problem solved.
Do they waterboard?
