"...not really, only reflects who got the most people to the polls on election day..."

You're wrong. Whether folks go to the polls or not, people get the government they deserve. In that way, politicians are absolutely representative of their constituents. You're argument suggests only that in many cases, the electorate are a lazy lot.

McKinney is also know at the Pentagon as the member of the HASC (with connection to the)
"Blame America First" (crowd) who would like to put the Pentagon out of business...........

This lulu probably can't even define Pentagon never mind understand its function. What a birdbrain.

I think its time to blame the ones who elect these people.

.... the ones who don't vote are just as culpable........

I've never seen McKinney publically allude to anyone as a "bi*ch" so she's one-up on you.

Not only is she a bi*ch, she is the worst c*********g m***********g G**-d****** b***h son of a wh*** piece of s*** in congress.

Of course, your milage may vary.

Wow.....I'm at a loss of words to what you said there....so I'll just say that you are an idiot.

I was not at a loss of words, as you can see above.

.....proposed legislation is so poorly written that it is evident that she
(and her staff) have no idea how most of the government operates.

Figures.

However, her staff is smart enough to know how to request huge amounts of information from the Pentagon which they then give to groups like the Internet Action Center, Z Magazine, National Resource Defense Council, Military Toxics Project, etc who are happy to use it to smear the pentagon.

With people like this extant in the land, America doesn't need foreign enemies.

Former DeKalb resident bump. I used to play ALTA tennis (in C) back in the late 70's. Lived at LeMans apt and ate at ElToro's at least 3 times a week. That was when there were only I and II. aaahhhhh the good old days

That was back when Buford Highway, which was probably where that El Toro was located, led to Chamblee, and not Chambodia. . . . .

Lived at LeMans apt

I grew up between Briarcliff Rd. and I-85 near Shallowford Rd.
I....ahem....borrowed lumber from the constuction of LeMans to build a tree fort down the hill on Peachtree Creek.
A big night out was dining at the Dogwood Motel in Doraville.

You are right about the ones that don't vote. Sorry I forgot about them.

Less than 20. I think they had an internal parting of ways, and many of them are now under new names / management.

If it's all the same to you, I'll think of Bob Barr, Dale Murphy, Paul Coverdell, Newt Gingrich, Neal Boortz, Zell Miller, R.E.M., Mac Collins, Brenda Lee, Dominique Wilkins, The B-52's, Otis Redding, Ty Cobb, Babyface, Herschel Walker, The Allman Brothers, Coca-Cola, Little Richard, The Braves and the '96 Olympics.

All of whom and which are more relevant to Georgia than Ms. McKinney, whose district is a nightmare.

Near that little lake on the left across from Briarlake Rd. if you're heading north on Briarcliff? That's still a nice area although if you head west a few blocks things seem to get a lot more sinister than they used to be.

Echo Lake?
Passed it as I walked to school.
In fact, walked across it one day when the temperature dropped in the teens for some days in a row.

And the annoying thing is, if these non-voters were told they
are losing their voting privileges, they'd make the biggest stink.

I've recently moved to Decatur (Emory area) and I know exactly where that is, near Lakeside High School and Oak Grove.

Cynthia McKinney is my congresswoman and I called her office on Friday to complain about her recent comments. I think I got a cell phone because after the answering machine staffer identified the number as McKinney's the message inviting my comment was generic and specific to either Sprint or BellSouth. Quite an operation they've got going over there.

This woman is horrific. It's time for the good Jewish folk in the Lavista/Briarcliff/North Druid Hills area to start realizing that this woman is their enemy and mobilizing the troops in every arena from fundraising to voter registration drives.

If a shift in that community can be accomplished, perhaps an uneasy alliance with the rednecks in Tucker and the conservative Panola Road churchgoers can bear fruit. I think there are still enough conservatives in the affluent parts of Dekalb to elect a Sunny Warren but it's going to be a major struggle.
