Actually I think that's her "Battle Mumu."

[JennysCool]

Exactly! Thank you for the link!

Liberal art majors one and all, not much collective earning power there. No they want Hillary they would be the beneificiaries of her grabbing tendencies.

Commie radio scanner is up with their live 'funeral parade' coverage

T Y, That certainly helps me.

Vanessa Dixon saying "Politicians and diapers full of the same thing", then correcting herself and saying Ms. McKinney is an exception. LOL

[kenth]

It's about time. I didn't think we'd ever get to hear someone on the mike make a Hitler comparison.

[Semper Paratus]

She's back and badder than ever! Formally dressed in Poncho..

And gravity challenged.

[gopwinsin04]

It's like a train wreck that you cant turn away from.

GWB Is The Man ~ Bump!

Why can't they let W. and us enjoy the day?

They would be the first to insist that our side behave itself had the election gone their way... hypocrites.

[spodefly]

How could Georgia, such a great state, do this to us? Cynthia McKinney, OMG.

It's my state. I was born here. Her district has a large number of disaffected welfare-loving, work-hating loser socialists. She is a perfect fit for them.

[gopwinsin04]

Now a DC 'health care warrior' takes the mike..

[KevinDavis]

Let me guess, we need universal health care? Correct?

[StarFan]

Well well Cynthia McKinney managed to get clearance and joined 'her' people.

CNN reporting that the protestors are growing in numbers and will make their presence known once the parade begins. Guess they're not going to simply turn their backs when the President's motorcade passes (as was reported earlier today by some liberal sympathizer trying to convice us that they're simply "peace activists").

[hoosiermama]

There's problems....from the DC thread.

Not So Peaceful Peace Rally
Hundreds of people gathered at both ends of Meridian Hill Park in Northwest Washington for a peace rally sponsored by the D.C Antiwar Network.

But there were interlopers: Thirteen members of ProtestWarror, supporting the Bush administration and its policies in Iraq. When the Bush supporters arrived, about 20 black-clad, self-described anarchists emerged from the crowd, shouting profanity and epithets and demanding that they leave the peace rally.

When the Bush supporters refused to leave, the anarchists tore the sign out of the Bush supporters' hands and stomped on them. When ProtestWarrior leader Gil Kobrin objected, several male anarchists knocked him to the ground, kicking him in the back and punching him. Other anarchists punched and shoved Kobrin's 12 colleagues.

After D.C. Antiwar Network members broke up the fight, the Bush supporters heeded their order to leave the park. Kobrin then called D.C. police, who are now guarding them at the entrance of the park as they hold up their pro-war signs. "We're going to hang tight," Kobrin said. "We're expressing our freedom of speech just as they are expressing theirs." --Robert MacMillan
