According to a reliable source, former U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga) will officially announce her candidacy for U.S. president as early as next week. According to the source, the Green Party has been actively courting McKinney to switch party affiliation and run as a Green. (*)
McKinney has been outspoken about the Iraq war, AIPAC's lobbying influence over U.S. foreign policy, the 9/11 Commission Report, and the partisan decision by a partial body of the Supreme Court to elect George W. Bush to the presidency in 2000.
She is also trumpeting the call of millions of Americans calling for the impeachment of Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney for perpetrating war crimes against humanity.
McKinney is in San Francisco this weekend. Her schedule includes an appearance at a CodePink party tonight at El Rio, and an appearance tomorrow at a campaign rally to elect mayoral candidate Ahimsa Sumchai.
(*) Update 3:10 p.m: According to a source, McKinney officially registered as a member of the Green Party yesterday.
Cute! I like it.
Talk about nappy-headed.
Don't know, but I laughed out loud upon reading this.
No, she’s running for President now, not Congress.
Heineken?? Pabst Blue Ribbon!!
If there’s any chance that she (McKinney) might take votes from Hillary, then she will be found dead somewhere and the blame will be placed on southern white racists.
Satire? Joke? Surely you jest?
I don’t think this is for real. There is only one source for this story on Google and that source looks dodgy.
The ‘publisher and editor’ (and author of the article) seems to be advertising his own appearance more than anything else.
It would be a dream come true if she would run, but I doubt it. Plus, even the Greens aren’t T-H-A-T wacky.
Do you mean Dennis Cooked Spinach?
“She’s a watermelon. Green on the outside...”
Code Pink on the inside!
YIPPEE! More fun at the expense of Cynthia McKinney! I’m firing up the photoshop as we speak!
Dat be de guy! I met him once. I’m over 6’2”, so I stood really close to the little commie twerp. Made him strain his scrawny turkey neck to try to talk to me.
who has that picture of her looking real bug-eyed?
Go Cindy Go!
Why I’ll even donate to her campaign. I figure she’ll take just enough of the Leftwing kook, kool-aid drinker vote to insure a Hildabeast defeat.
Momma owes me a keyboard! I was blindsided.
ROTFLOL! I see your momma's mind is sharp as a tack! Give her a hug for me! ;*)
My goodness! Has that been Photoshopped?
Momma is pretty conservative too. Mom is sharp but she tries to play that down a lot. She just said "I'm not so sure about that 'sharp as a tack.' LOL (More bennies in being a bit feeble ya know.) But she lets slip like that now and then giving away just what it is I'm up against. Experience beats strength every time! ;^)
