Yes, Blogonomicon is correct, this week's all-too-obvious moron is Cynthia "Dukes" McKinney. Congrats Blogonomicon for beating everyone to the punch (pun intended in this case).
When one thinks bad reputation in politics, one may likely think Cynthia McKinney - or at least I do these days. Many consider her to have political objectives that are as poor as her left jab.
And, yes, when I say jab, I'm referring to the sucker punch she threw at a cop after she was denied entrance to a Congress meeting because she didn't have her identification on her.
What happened on March 29th this year is quite funny and quite ridiculous at the same time. Funny because it seems like only a fool would punch a cop. Ridiculous because the fool happened to be someone elected as a US representative. You'd think a person in a presumably reputable position in society would show a little more class and common sense.
Anyhow, the result of the altercation was that McKinney freaked out, claiming it to be a race issue and that she was "inappropriately touched" by the officer.
Won't somebody please think of the female black congresswoman?
Puh-lease!
And, this is not the only race baiting McKinney has done. After a ruling of Miller v. Johnson in which her district was an unconstitutional gerrymander because the boundaries were unfairly based on race, McKinney angrily asserted that it was racially discriminatory for them to dissolve the district.
They ended up having to do a little switcheroo just to get her to shut up - however temporarily.
And, in 2000, McKinney wrote, "Al Gore's Negro tolerance level has never been too high. I've never known him to have more than one black person around him at any given time." She neglected the fact that his own campaign manager was black, but that's besides the point.
What the f*ck does that have to do with racism anyhow? Do you have to hang around a certain race just to prove that you're not racist? Good grief, Charlie Brown, Black, or Purple.
Geesh, give it a rest already, lady, I mean female black congresswoman.
Duh!
Of course, McKinney is known for other moronic traits.
Like, for instance, her belief that Bush had prior knowledge of the 9/11 attacks and that he and members of his administration may have personally profited from the attacks.
Now that's the pot calling the kettle black (pun, again, intended, but not racist, so suck it).
The quip is referring to her accepting campaign contributions from
"radical Muslims, including some with links to terrorist-supporting organizations."
Now if that's not anti-American, I don't know what is.
And, it sounds like someone's a little jealous of Bush, eh.
Got presidency envy, Cyn?
Seriously, what flippin' benefit could 9/11 have created for the government?
Ya, Bush has to deal with f*cknuts like Sheehan and anti-wargoofs, he's watching the dollar signs add up as a result of catching the bad guys, and he runs the risk of being labelled a poor president (as some foolishly declare).
Sure McKinney, what a benefit!
Despite the lack of support McKinney gives her country, Bush is succeeding in the efforts. So nyah.
That's okay Cyn, you're striving ahead, leaps and bounds, with your bill to disclose Tupac Shakur's personal records (thanks to 123Beta for the news).
You should be proud of that boring old broadcast, Cyn.
As for other dull elements of McKinney's political existence, she has voted moronically on numerous bills.
For instance, she opposed Bush's tax cuts, and indorsed instead the Progressive Caucus' "American People's Dividend" - I'd like to refer to the whole situation as the Caucus Representing American People, or CRAP for short. This dividend was to pay $300 to every person in the US, "the same for all whether a person paid $1 million in taxes or $0.
Isn't that like, uh... communism?
Equal treatment for all, but the corrupt government in power.
And, in 2001, the moron voted for imposing same day voter registration on election days. This dumb idea would have created the potential for more voting fraud.
Ya, 'cause the 2000 election went swimmingly, so let's really flub it up.
And, let's not forget that moron McKinney voted against banning physician-assisted suicide.
So, she's FOR aiding in murder.
Perhaps if the law would have passed, she could have been one of the first recipients of her desired law (ouch).
And, of course, in 2001/02 she was noted as possibly being anti-Jewish after it became evident that she attended a meeting known to give prominence to anti-American, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic leaders. And then, a year later, her dad stated publicly that Cynthia's lose in her Democratic nomination was a result of "the Jews, J-E-W-S".
Like father, like daughter, I suppose.
What a proud moment.
Well, I don't know about you, but I've had enough of being appalled by her actions. So, if you are looking for change and have not already visited the blog, check out Dignan's 75 Year Plan. He says he will announce his intentions in running against McKinney by the end of the month, and you can read up on his decision and listen to his radio interview while there.
And, there's more McKinney madness out there, but I'm done with it all for now. Congratulations again goes to Blogonomicon for knowing McKinney is a moron.
