"Actually Ms. McKinney has a mental "white hole", no intelligence can enter. It reflects all light and knowledge.

I yield to your superior definition. In line with that, since she is the opposite of a black hole (drawing matter into itself) she radiates... liberal bovine excrement out to all of the known universe.

I think it takes about an *"SPF 9000" to protect yourself from that radiation.

*Where SPF 1000 would be enough to protect a person from the gamma rays emitted by a hydrogen bomb at a range of 1000 ft.

[SauronOfMordor]

Once you've sunk to a certain depth of stupidity, degree is hard to differentiate.

Dem politicians dont need to be smart. They just need to be re-elected and vote the way the Dem leadership and their staff tell them to. It's actually more convenient if they are intellectually incapable of independent thought

[genefromjersey]

This was indeed stunning...and coldly, indisputably factual. I was, by the way, not surprised to find Jane Fonda on the Contributors' List: ( $ 250. on 04/18/2000. Jane lists herself as " self-employed " .)

This leads me to wonder if the Muslim-oriented contributors could be traced further, to see what other pols they have contributed to, and when the contributions were made...

[PISANO]

What did she know, and when did he know it?

Well one thing is for sure she is the ONLY person who knew when we landed on MARS and planted Old Glory!

[ml/nj]

This is amazing!

Here are her ten best days out of the 122 days listed. The average contribution on a listed day is about $2400.

10/25/2001	65000
4/17/2000	41550
9/11/2001	24000
11/3/2000	10000
10/12/2001	10000
5/2/2001	10000
12/12/2001	7250
11/7/2000	7000
9/11/2000	6850
10/2/2000	6000

I guess it's just a big coincidence that 9/11/2000 is on the list too.

If this isn't TREASON, nothing is.

Unbelievable. Is this website factually reliable? It would be interesting to check her contributions for the weeks prior to and after 9/11. This sounds like the sort of thing O'Reilly or Hannity would like to get all over.

[OldFriend]

American Muslim Foundation made donations to her heinous as well. She tried to hide the donation by listing it as American Museum Foundation but was found out and so was forced to return the donation.

[aristeides]

My guess would be that CAIR and similar organizations decided, once 9/11 happened, to immediately shore up the reliability of certain favored politicians by giving them big donations. It would be very interesting to know what other politicians received donations from these people at the same time.

What determines the date of a donation? The date a check is signed? The date it clears? What if the donation is by credit card? I still have trouble understanding how donations could in fact be accomplished on 9/11, with so many offices shut.

[aristeides]

I wonder if the date 9/11 really does have some significance for the Islamists. I wonder if the date shows up on McKinney's list for earlier years.

[Bigg Red]

Holy moly! Good catch, cgk!

Thanks for the ping, FWI.

[aristeides]

I just read in David Horowitz's column in today's Washington Times that McKinney was at that UN anti-racism conference in Durban, South Africa the week before 9/11. She would have had the opportunity to meet a lot of militant Islamists at that anti-Israel conference. I wonder what day she returned to this country.

Of course, the 9/11 donations could have been her payoff for her performance at that conference. But, in that case, why wouldn't she also have been getting donations dated 9/10 and 9/12, for example? 9/11 was a Tuesday, was it not?

[Bigg Red]

We have a 'Rat named Janet Owens here in Maryland, currently County Executive of Anne Arundel County. Perhaps your source was referring to her

"How in God's name could Cynthia McKinney have gone about her fund-raising activities as if nothing had happened that day?"

I think a more important question is: "is this a 'typical' day in the office and if so why are the donors so heavily skewed to Muslims and probably terrorist connections?"

[Mo1]

To put it in perspective, 9/11 was McKinney's second largest fundraising day of the year

2nd Largest Huh????

Gee seems there should be a little investigation done on McKinney

[sweetliberty]

"She's never known anything."

LOL! Well, obviously she knew who to suck up to to get where she is. It certainly wasn't merit.

[texasbluebell]

Cynthia McKinney is inarguably the most IGNORANT person ever to serve in the House of Representative. Who could possibly disagree?

Well, I might challenge that with a couple of others, Marxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lee... Sometimes I wonder how they can actually talk and breathe at the same time.

"I was hoping he was pursuing his doctoral thesis on sharks' genetic memory of feeding patterns induced by plentiful feeding along the historic slave ship routes."

Well, I guess that means reparations need to be made by the descendents of the crews of slave ships. What about reparations for the sharks that got a bad one and got sick?
