McKinney's back!!!

"We've got to make America, America," McKinney told supporters. "We've got to avoid any backsliding on civil rights or human rights. We've got to get our troops out of harm's way. We've got to turn around this Bush economy."

Cynthia McKinney won her primary race yesterday in Georgia. She's headed back to Congress...

She was a victim of the Dem lack of spine in 2002.

2. Good for her!

She performed a great service for her constituents and all of us when she spoke out against Bush.

4. Terrible!

She is a horrible, ineffective representative. Sadly, I am not in her district and did not get the chance to vote against her.

She has never done anything productive for her district, and only seems to be visible when she can run her mouth about crap in front of a camera.

This is one district I hope the GOP takes. We need nuts like her out of Washington.

5. Well....

.... one thing is for sure. She was selected despite the belief that nobody who speaks out as she does win.

This has got to scare the crap out of the GOP. Bush*'s halo will no longer protect him from his critics.

6. Oh, put a cork in it.

Cynthia is a helluva brave woman, who never actually said anything out of line, no matter how the RW twisted her words. She scared teh living crap out of them with her questions, and they did her in with dirty tricks.

11. it's a never-ending source of amusement to me

when folks who don't live here soapbox about how "ineffectual" McKinney is.

This is one district I hope the GOP takes.

Can I quote you? Repeatedly? How about in my sig line?
