She should apply for a job at CNN. Shame! Shame on you people who voted this anti-American black activist into office.
Hey, she has often brought tears to our eyes, too, laughing/crying at her idiotic comments!
How about just anti-American activist - she hides behind her race, but I have to insist that being pro-black does not automatically make you anti-American.
Excuse me? And where the heck do you get off with that kind of mind-numbed statement? And what makes you the be-all, end-all authority???!!!!
That's exactly my point - she has her constituents snowed. She knows where her money comes from...
Hussein Ibish...hmmm...every time he opens his fat mouth on tv, my blood pressure skyrockets. Maybe this is how they plan to get us, by giving a lot of us heart attacks.
Why is it that the enemy is allowed to be on our airwaves broadcasting suppressed hate against us? We would never have allowed this in previous wars, would we? Not even during the Vietnam years did we see that.
Ibish is one of those US citizens (though born in Lebanon) who has gone over to the enemy's side, yet remains here using our resources to attack us from the inside. He is part of the thin edge of the wedge, pushing for the mainstreaming of Islam in this country.
Ibish (along with Cynthia McKinney) is a traitor to this country.
When blacks are "black" instead of just plain Americans, they have lifted themselves out of society.
Being outside of a society means not caring about all those you've left behind....those you call "the other", instead of your fellow-Amerians.
And pretty soon, one begins to hate "the other"......and pretty soon after that, one desires to harm "the other".
There is no excuse for you if you can't recogonize the FACT that that is a primarily black district,and the vast majority of the people in that district will only vote for a black candidate. Get off your high horse. You ain't fooling anybody.
Let's try it again - What makes you say that if you're black that you aren't qualified?
I will acknowledge that many black folks will only vote for a black candidate, but you still haven't given any kind of logical reason for your blatantly mind-numbing statement.
So are you saying that if a black Republican were there running against a white Democrat that the black GOP candidate is not qualified?
Now, who's truly on their high horse?
I owe you a huge apology. I just went back and read your original comment -- I missed one little word in there -- "NOT" -- which changes the entire meaning of your statement, and certainly changes my response.
In general, I've got to agree with your original statement. Unfortunately, black folks tend only to vote for black folks, when faced with a black v. white candidate. I'm hoping that the GOP runs a viable candidate, but I'm not holding my breath.
Again, my deepest apologies; I know I came off pretty harsh in my first reply to you.
Unfortunately, you're right. But from what I've seen of McKinney, overall, she doesn't give a damn about poor folks in south DeKalb County, even though the bulk of her base is from there.
That's the point that needs to be made to her constituants. Her loony remarkes and blatant anti-Americanism has HARMED her area. The people in congress are distancing themselves from her as fast as possible. Her ability to "bring home the bacon" is nil and will probably remain nil.
