1. I wish the World Bank would ask Wolfkowitz about the missing 3 tril. I
want to see him make faces.

2. The audio wasn't all that good,
but here's the transcript: http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/031505_mckinney_transcript.shtml
This one and the one above aren't sources that I myself regard as unimpeachable, but there is the video and here's the text --- it's hard to imagine somebody trying to get away with faking any part of it.

4. OMFG!!!! - I am jumping all over my office right now
I love this woman.


Can we actually believe that a REAl POlitician is actually questioning the 911 bullshit story?

I think I'm dreaming.

5. I always vote for Cynthia
which absolutely enrages my neighbors. I live in her district, only in the suburban, primarily white area. My neighbors loathe Cynthia...absolutely froth at the mouth hate her. But look at her voting record. I'm more in sync with McKinney and Lewis than any other politicos. Plus, she will go where others fear to tread.
She's everything the Bushies hate: smart, female, black, opinionated, tall, and, gasp! correct!

15. I get the same thing in my district
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 01:03 PM by kliljedahl
I always vote for Julia Carson & she always wins. One blue area in a mostly red state that drives the BushCo drones mad.

edit: typo

8. I love CK!
She should be held aloft by the Democratic Party as a shining Role Model for Democracy in Action, and a Champion of the People!

I can understand the why the Republicans HATE her, but why is she marginalized by members of her own Party?

17. I think it is the Mr. Smith Goes to Washington effect.
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 01:29 PM by gordianot
Honesty, guts, being outspoken, passion, is not a quality the institutional mentality is comfortable with, for either party.

If you have been there for thirty years you might get by with this but from someone relatively new she threatens the hierarchy.

I have seen this happen on a State level and can only imagine the degree institutional mentality plays in the beltway.

12. She is amazing
She (and others of course) make me proud to be a democrat. I loved it. I heard this on Malloy's show and was excited. A little tiny black lady from the deep south making a big rich white "tough" boy tremble in his knee's. He's been pussy wipped! :headbang: :popcorn:

16. I have seen this before, she is awesome.
Pure candor, not afraid to ask what others fear to ask. Proof there are a few real Democrats left.

Someday she may even find an answer!
