McKinney watches documentary

Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney was watching a documentary called “American Blackout” with about 50 of her supporters at the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Center...
She was seated next to anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan...
Update!

Controversial McKinney in tight race, facing possible runoff
ERRIN HAINESJul. 18, 2006
ATLANTA - Democratic firebrand Rep. Cynthia McKinney was in high spirits Tuesday night, dancing and playing a tambourine as election results showed her with a tight lead over a former DeKalb County Commissioner with roots in the heart of her core constitency.
With 80 percent of the precincts reporting, McKinney was leading with 47 percent of the vote to lawyer Hank Johnson's 45 percent. One of the candidates will need to get more than 50 percent of the vote to avoid a runoff on Aug. 8.
Tuesday's primary was the first time that McKinney faced voters since her scuffle with a Capitol Hill police officer in March.
At her campaign party, McKinney continued to flaunt her record of outspokenness on the Iraq war. She entered the auditorium with anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan...
But it might be that Ms. McKinney's celebration was a little premature.

McKinney, Johnson appear headed for runoff
By Travers Johnson | Tuesday, July 18, 2006, 08:58 PMAs election results poured in, U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney and Democratic challenger Henry C. “Hank” Johnson, Jr. appeared headed for a runoff in the 4th District race...
Of course a Democrat will win that gerrymandered seat anyway.
So I'm rooting for Ms. McKinney myself.

(Decatur) After one hour of voting, the McKinney campaign has received numerous calls that the voting machines are malfunctioning. Voters casting votes for McKinney are reportedly having their votes switched by the machines for Hank Johnson. This is not a new problem with Diebold machines. Lawyers for the campaign have been alerted and said that if this situation is not corrected, Cynthia McKinney for Congress will be forced to take additional measures.
I am not eating lunch today.
Two moonbats - perfect match.
Yes, the scum of our country all collect together.
Target rich photoshop alert!
McKinney ping.
"I am not eating lunch today."
Mother Sheehan calls that "fasting."
Well, I reckon even a**holes need representation in the House of Reps. Ms. McKinney certainly fills that bill nicely.
Ms. Sheehan looks like she is gaining weight during her big fast.
Media Benjamin? Her name is "Media?" How nice for her.
So they spent the night together, eh? No comment, too easy.
It's not that they hate our ideas, it's all voter fraud.
Why does Cynthia always look like a classic side-show blackface minstral singer?
Not necessarily in that order.
"Media Benjamin? Her name is "Media?" How nice for her."
It's really Susan. But she calls herself Medea (after the famous murderer of her own children, in Greek legend).
But it should be Media.
An utter waste of oxygen. Skanky rancid idiots.
Any Jews invited?
Looks like Cindy has been cheating quite a bit on her "fast". Either that, or this is only type of fast where the participants actually gain weight.
One of those "between bites" hunger strikes.
Congresswoman Stephin Fetchit (D-4-GA). She really does look like a blackface singer, maybe it's the round face. *shrug*
Gosh, I hope she loses the runoff. My grandmother-in-law lives in the 4th District, and while I'd prefer she doesn't have a Rat representing her, at least the next-least-worst option would be a *sane* Rat.
