Notes from the NY Not In Our Name Protest:

Go to the MPSIMS list of threads. At the top you’ll see mods’ names. cCick on them, and a box will appear giving their e-mail addresses.

And there’s yet more dirt on some of her “friends.”

I knew she had taken money from CAIR (Council on American Islamic Relations), but I didn’t know that:

[ul]
[li]CAIR’s communications director refused to condemn OBL’s involvement in the 9/11 attacks.[/li][li]CAIR board members have blamed Israeli and Egyptian officials for the 1993 WTC bombing.[/li][li]Federal Prosecutor Mary Jo White claimed that a CAIR former board member was a possible conspirator in the 1993 bombing.[/li][/ul]

And Skip already mentioned her crooked electioneering. She’s under investigation for six counts of alleged election law violations. The Georgia BoE has voted unanimously twice that the state take action on all six counts.

It must be because all of her opponents are racist. Right?

[Maeglin]

And since I’m bored at lunch, here’s another gem from this thread.

We have the following analysis from spoke:

As for the OP, I think McKinney lost because she somehow got it into her head that she was elected to the position of Chief Dissenter in Matters of US Foreign Policy. She should have paid more attention to the needs and wishes (and for that matter, opinions on matters of foreign policy) of the voters in her district.

To which Ace replies:

Spoke, I agree with you and about McKinney, I thought she was a bit self-involved and more critically, politically tone-deaf. Call it hubris, if you wish.

And yet now Ace asks:

How did she ever get kicked out?

Jeez, Ace, you posted your agreement with spoke on August 23 of this year. Did you already join the:

Saddam by Riding a Bike while Toking Twice for Justice not Oil

club yet?

Maeglin, I’m very familiar with Mr. Zell Miller, thanks. “Certainly no liberal!?” Please.

He’s a D.I.N.O – since we’re apparently in patronizing mode today, that’s Democrat In Name Only and he’s the biggest one there is. Votes with the Pubbies on all the major issues. Campaigns against the Democrats right and left – I dismiss his credibility in this debate.

He’s so nearly a Republican, he and Jonah Goldberg could swap places, and the only one who’d notice would be Jonah’s mom, Lucianne.

As for the substance, I honestly don’t see “poison” in association. To refresh, DCU was attempting to prove that she was full of “poisonous” rhetoric. That’s yet to be advanced beyond the ten-yard line.

Turning to you, you make your first substantive complaint about her character, something that requires slightly different evidence, under Crooked Electioneering. Let’s have some more of that, first-hand please. Link?

[Maeglin]

Calling Denise Majette a “Tomette” doesn’t get past the ten-yard line for poisonous rhetoric?

Accepting a campaign visit from Louis Farrakhan, who called Hitler a “very great man,” is not a poisonous association?

How can you tolerate such evil on the left when you are so intolerant of it on the right?

Ask and ye shall receive.

From this article:

Officials are now investigating accusations of election day dirty tricks after an anonymous male voice left messages on thousands of voters’ answering machines, falsely warning them that it was illegal for Republicans to vote in Democratic primaries.

And:

During the 2000 election, allegations were raised that election-day campaigning inside DeKalb’s Stone Hill precinct by U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney and her supporters may have impacted the precinct’s vote totals.

Ace, obviously you consider race-baiting to be mere mau-mauing. I consider it poisonous. I suspect others would agree. Ditto on the 9/11 comments.

[Larry_Griffin-Kentzel]

Ace0Spades, since your opening post is not Great Debates material . . . let’s just close this one. You’re welcome to open a new thread in GD.
