DEL.ICIO.USAnd now a bit of McKinney’s mail
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
You’ve already seen some of Hank Johnson’s fund-raising efforts below. It’s only fair that we give you a peek at what Cynthia McKinney is putting out to liberal groups. Below are the contents of an Aug. 1 plea to various political action committees:
To: PAC Coordinator/Government Relations Director
RE: Request for maximum PAC contributions and 10 volunteers for one weekend
I am working hard to return to Washington to continue to support your issues. I have turned up the heat in my “Refuse to [Lose] Campaign.” As the Peace and Justice Democrat, I would like to thank you so much for your support. I need your help once again. As you know, I’m in a run-off on Aug. 8, a new election cycle. Therefore, I’m asking for a maximum PAC contribution from you as soon as possible. We also need volunteers.
Your support is urgent and needed immediately. Please overnight express mail to:
Cynthia McKinney for Congress P.O. Box 371125 Decatur, Ga. 30037
I am also requesting that 10 volunteers come to us as soon as possible to spend two or more days with us. Your consideration is greatly appreciated in advance.
Please visit our campaign website at www.cynthiaforcongress.com
Again, thank you for your support,
Cynthia McKinney

I think the “Peace and Justice” claim goes a bit far. She hasn’t been peaceful in her appearances in quite some time.

Now that the mail our of Lebannon is moving slower than usual, Hezbollah may not be able to send her the monthly check she usually gets from the Murder Butcher Arab Terrorist supporters she has in her camp. I do think the bath they gave her and the medications she was on during her debate helped her some, but a dressed up pig is still a pig.

I’m surprised the press isn’t making a bigger deal out of her blatant lie during the debate the other night.
She stated that she was recently announced as the most effective legislator from Georgia in a something poll (I forget the specifics). The paper later reported that she was actuall #408 out of 438 total and next to last in Georgia. This was an outright lie by her. Shouldn’t the paper be pointing that out a little louder? (unless the editorial staff at the AJC is pulling for her?!?!)

Rod,
I am surprised it hasnt been made a bigger deal as well. Hopefully Mr. Johnson has done his research and is ready tomorrow.
I am also surprised her campaign manager who (reportedly) has a criminal record.

FWIW, she’s been ‘invited’ to a community forum held by Reps. Stan Watson & Pam Stephenson at New Piney Grove Missionary Baptist Church in Decatur, GA, tomorrow at 9:00 am. Hank Johnson confirmed that he will be there. This may be the last chance to hear both candidates.

Thank goodness that this charlatan’s support continues to dwindle. It restores my faith in the intelligence of Georgia voters. What an embarrassment she is to our state!

I went to the web-site and checked it, you’re confusing two different rankings. The rankings that suprised me was the entire Georgia Congressional Delegations of State Delegation Average Score: 13.27 State Rank: 50. Now if I recall the majority of the Georgia Delegation is Republican and I also believe that the Republicans control Congress, wonder what the other representatives have been doing?
The ranking sounds like our state education rank is, kind of gives you a hint.
Note: the last chance to hear both candidates will be on channel 2 at 12:30 tomorrow.

Let’s face it, the Repukes in the Georgia congressional delegation are stupid Klan trash - only in Dixie would pure absolute buffoons like Westmoreland and Norwood be congressmen.
Trash. But trash elects trash.

Cynthia McKinney could actually serve a useful purpose. A trace of her contributors could finally locate Osama bin Laden. She is an vile, arrogant, haughty, obnoxious, harridan with the brains of a decapitaed fly who supports terrorism, treason, and tyranny. She is Lester Maddox with a dress. She is an embarassment and disgrace to the state of Georgia and the entire human race. At least Lester could cook.

Both candidates did stop by Rep. Watson’s meeting, albeit for a few minutes to simply say hello. They came a separate times. The gathered audience understood they were on their way to Channel 2 for the televised debate.
FWIW, I was embarrassed by the forum held on Saturday 8/5 on Channel 2. The panel did not ask questions of substance, relating to REAL issues of importance. I thought Richard Belcher did a poor job as moderator, controlling the forum. We deserved a better showing from both candidates. I’m looking forward to to August 9th, when this will be over.

I like “Cynthia for Congoress” as a Mckinney campaign slogan!

There is more than a 5 minute delay, because my comments were submitted and are now gone off the system. You are the racist organization that I knew you to be and I will cancel my week end subscription to that rag.
