An interesting spin she put on the Benton Harbor incident.
As anything else a person reads, we can research it and find the falisies.

Nothing like singing to the Choir

As a citizen living in her former Congressional district, let me 'splain somethin' 'bout Ms. McKinney:

She is one of the most divisive, non-representative, self-serving politicians I have ever had the misfortune of being represented by. Her father, upon her loss to currently sitting Congresswoman Denise Majette, blamed it on "Jews, J-E-W-S, Jews!" Her apple didn't fall very far from that tree.

She has consistently blamed Republicans jumping party lines in the primaries for the loss of her seat in the House. Nevermind that, if you took the most generous estimate of the Republicans who crossed the line and compared them to the margin of victory of her opponent, there is NO way that the statement could be true. If not ONE single Republican had crossed party lines during the primaries, Cynthia McKinney would have lost.

Add to that the list of donations to Cynthia's campaign fund and you will see that her core "constituency" wasn't the residents of her district, but a LARGE number of people with very Arabic-sounding names.

Her rant doesn't sound "interesting." Her rant sounds like the same bile she's been regurgitating since she took office.

BTW: Look at old tapes of State of the Union addresses. In every one of them, Cynthia McKinney was right there at the aisle in her best outfit waiting to smile and shake the President's hand, no matter what President we're talking about. Her habit was to head down to the House ahead of time and sit in the chair for several hours in order to make sure she would be seen on TV shaking the President's hand. George W. Bush's hand.

If anyone needs investigating, Cynthia McKinney should be near the top of the list.
