Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: This is your Democratic Party
I don't understand the point of the picture. Was there a caption? And since when does one person make up an entire party?

No, Shemp, it says a lot about what I know about you.

Is she an elected representative? > And > since when does one person make up an entire party? One person makes up an entire party when the other members of the party are silent on her racism and anti-semitism. Maybe they don't know it exists.And while one person can be representative of a group, they cannot make up a group on their own. Two entirely different things, Shemp. Sal

I don't know, maybe Shemp knows of one, although I kind of doubt it.

Yes, from Georgia (elected in 2004 by 64 percent in a majority white district; she'd already served 10 years in Congress but was defeated in 2002). Oh, okay...I didn't recognize her, not havng seen her picture in a while. She's something of a fringe-left nutcase, and she's a favorite target of right-wingers like Shemp. Google Cynthia McKinney and racist and you'll see what kind of company Shemp keeps. What a surprise. Here's a fairly balanced piece on her antics from Slate: http://www.slate.com/?id=2064530 Thanks. She has something like a 95 percent ADA voting record, and she has fought hard for many progressive causes (pro-union, pro-education, pro-abortion rights, etc.). The Capitol Hill police, it seems, have a history of great difficulty recognizing her as a member of Congress. So they harass her? Seems like a lawsuit could take care of that, especially if they do it fairly regularly. She's currently embroiled in a dispute in which she apparently smacked a Hill officer in the chest after he grabbed her to stop her from entering the building without passing through the metal detector (members of Congress don't have to). They say she doesn't wear her official pin.

Sal, Capitol Hill police do have trouble recognizing her because she frequently changes her hairstyle and general appearance and frequently doesn't wear her congressional id badge. There have been about 5 times in the past that they have had to stop her to identify her.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: This is your Democratic Party
Actually I did, and here's a good example of what I found: Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney: April 20th Statement for Peace We come here today from the four corners of this nation. We are blacks and whites, Latinos, Asians, and Native Americans; Christians, Muslims, and Jews; gay, lesbian, and straight; immigrants and native-born Americans; rich and poor. Here today are representatives of all sections of society: students, union members . . . union members on strike . . . homeless veterans . . . and everyday warriors on the battlefield for justice. But despite all our differences, we are here today . . . one community with one thing in common: a desire to see the restoration of the true ideals of America. Sure sounds like a racist to me--no wonder Shemp doesn't like her.

Not.
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: This is your Democratic Party
OK, her hairstyle is possible...but her general appearance? How does she change that? Does she have plastic surgery on a regular basis or something? Not doubting you, MD, just the whole things sounds sort of fishy.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: This is your Democratic Party
No thanks Shemp, I don't have the time or inclination to support someone else's silly fantasies. Do your own research. I posted a good quote--you're not responding to it because you can't.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: This is your Democratic Party
Sounds pretty normal to me. Don't everyone's clothes fluctuate on, say, a daily basis? Make-up too. And it's pretty unlikely that she would either gain or lose weight so quickly that someone would have trouble recognizing her. The few pictures of her that I recall seeing all look pretty consistent.
