Cynthia McKinney - The Gift That Keeps on Giving (VIDEO)

August 9th, 2006 at 09:15 by MsUnderestimated

I would start this post out by saying “un-be-lievable,” but having witnessed the trainwreck that IS Cynthia McKinney for years, I am not surprised by the post-election antics of the McKinney Camp. Yep, in case you missed it, cell-phone-smackin’ Cynthia lost to Hank Johnson, 59% to 41%, in the runoff election yesterday. As Camp McKinney returned to her campaign headquarters yesterday evening, her handlers, a lot of whom wore patches that said “New Black Panther Party Freedom or Death,” got into scuffles with the news crew from Atlanta’s 11Alive, after earlier scuffles with an 11Alive photojournalist.

As McKinney walked outside her campaign headquarters after losing her reelection bid to Hank Johnson, a boom
microphone carried by a photographer struck members of McKinney’s entourage. In the confusion, McKinney staffers struck an 11Alive photographer and knocked his camera equipment to the ground.

A short time later, the 11Alive news desk called 9-1-1 after some people followed an 11Alive staff member into the station’s satellite truck outside the McKinney headquarters.

Late word is that DeKalb Co. Police are still investigating the case, which tells me one thing: 11Alive or one of their staffers is pursuing charges. Good! Somebody needs to hold her dumb ass accountable!

And what’s this about the “New Black Panther Party Freedom or Death” thing? Insiders say they’re really Nation of Islam reps, so that would go right along with her previous anti-Semitic comments. You know, those guys who wear the black suits and bow-ties? The “old” Black Panther Party claims the “new” Black Panther Party is in no way associated with them, but they don’t do too much to fight it that I can see, except put out a disclaimer on the Internet.

The New Black Panther Party is run by Malik Zulu Shabazz, a radical anti-Semite who has had many public, outspoken appearances against Israel, preaches for the Nation of Islam, and is on the ADL’s watch list.

Anyway, back to the sore-loser camp from last night.

What a bunch of sour grapes! And I thought she was all about being an “honest broker” for peace? At least that’s what she claimed in last Saturday’s disastrous debate when she said the United States should be an “honest broker for peace” all over the world. Do you ever practice what you preach, Cynthia? Oh, yeah, I forgot: you do. Both you and your daddy Billy have always blamed your political problem on the J-E-W-S, and your camp was apparently your mouthpiece in the public fracases last night. Again with the New Black Panther Party. According to Shabazz “the Nation of Islam has given birth to the New Black Panther Party on a national level.” Nation of Islam. Niiiiice.

At her concession speech, Cynthia joined in a chorus of “Dear Mr. President,” an anti-Bush song by singer Pink.

If their behavior last night was any indication of their “Nation of Islam,” then it most definitely is not a “nation” of peace! In fact, they showed their true anti-Semite colors in front of even the Fox News crew. Chris Wallace had a piece about it as he sat in for Brit on Special Report tonight.

Heard on the video from below, punctuated with the stills:

Gentleman #1: “I’m not standing for this bullshit….”

Lady #1: “You motherfucking crackers, get yo asses….”

Gentleman #2 (to cameraman): “You got what you damn wanted…”

“…you got your Uncle Tom, now go put the cameras on him!”

“You ain’t in Israel!”

“…and these ain’t no Lebanese people that’s fi’in to back all up. Y’all gonna get your Jewish asses beat!”

(to Fox Producer) - “You wanna know what led to the loss? Israel…the Zionists!”

(to Fox Producer) - “Now put your yarmulke on and go celebrate.”

Nice bunch of folks, huh? I’m still scratching my head about the 41% who voted for her dumb ass.

… and if you think we’ve heard the last of Cynthia, you’re mistaken. She’s already screaming about “voting irregularities” and evil electronic voting machines, and we fully expect her to take that fight with her when she goes back to Congress for her last dance. Maybe this time on the way in, a Capitill Hill Cop will slug her for once. That would be the only justice Ofcr. McKenna will ever get.

Watch the video of the lunacy from last night here.

Michelle Malkin and AllahPundit at HotAir are all over this!

Afterthought…. wonder how many Mel Gibson bashers will line up to bash the McKinney brigade? I promise you I won’t hold my breath - much to the chagrin, I’m sure, of the liberal asshats out there. It won’t come, however, so why wait? Just a point to ponder.

Message to Kofi - “Don’t Bring a Dog to a Catfight”

August 9th, 2006 at 06:18 by MsUnderestimated

Damn, I love this… from the moment I saw it. Even though it’s from mid-July, this cartoon from USA Today speaks volumes that words can’t.

Some editorial cartoonists do get it right.

Iraqi Divisions Halfway There - MultiNational Force, Iraq

August 9th, 2006 at 12:35 by MsUnderestimated

From the latest of Opreration Iraqi Freedom - Multinational Force of Iraq.

TIKRIT - The Iraqi Army took an important step forward Aug. 8 by marking the halfway point for division headquarters to take the lead for security operations throughout the country.

The 4th Iraqi Army Division assumed control of their area of responsibility, encompassing regions spanning three of Iraq’s northern provinces, Salah Ad Din, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk provinces.

Its area of responsibility includes the cities of Tikrit, Kirkuk, Bayji and Samarra, as well as the major oil and electrical infrastructure in northern Iraq.

The 4th IA Division is the fifth of 10 Iraqi Army divisions to take control over Iraqi units in their assigned regions. In addition, there have been 25 brigades and 85 battalions assuming operational command and control to date.

“Today is a day of dignity for us Iraqis who are loyal to the motherland,” said Lt. Gen. Abdul-Aziz Abdel-Rahman al-Mufti, commander of the 4th Iraqi Army Division. “We will not stop or look back,” he said.

Two years ago, armed only with a briefcase and a few names, Aziz was asked to build a division from scratch. Today he stood before the Iraqi Minister of Defense Abdul Qadir Mohammed Jasim and dozens of his subordinate officers to claim the area that he and his men will fight for.

“We had to search for many officers and Soldiers,” he said. “It was a very difficult job, but thanks to God we have succeeded.”

Aziz has continued to lead the way for the 4th IA Division despite 19 assassination attempts on his life.

“We keep going forward to build a new Iraq. Our motto is, and always will be: Unity is power. Unity for all denominations,” he said.

There are more than 275,000 Iraqi security personnel who are tasked with the job of keeping Iraq’s people safe, with about 115,000 of those in Iraq’s military and the remainder in it’s police forces.

“Gen. Aziz’s Soldiers have been working hard to take control of this large, complex area and that day has come,” said Maj. Gen. Thomas R. Turner, commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division. “They have set the example.”

While the Iraqi Army has taken the lead in security, help will still remain available to them, said Gen. George W. Casey Jr., commanding general of Multi-National Force - Iraq. “This is a step and we will help them become independent. We are going to do what it takes.”

That help will come in the form of intelligence capabilities, logistics and medical care. “These things take a little longer to understand,” said Casey.

“I think what you saw here today was a great statement in progress and unity in Iraq,” said Casey. “They (Iraqis) keep taking small steps and getting better and better everyday.”

“We will need the intelligence, logistical and medical support,” said Iraq’s national security advisor Dr. Mouwafak al-Rubaie. “Three years ago we had absolutely nothing and now we have 10 divisions. Today 60 percent of operations here are led, conducted, monitored and accessed by Iraqis.”

This significant step in self reliance is due to the stable command and control structure headed by a democratically elected government, said al-Rubaie. “Very soon, we will have command and control of Baghdad. Neighborhood by neighborhood, authority is being handed back to the Iraqis.”

Rubaie also discussed a meeting that was held recently in which the heads of the sectarian militias gathered to discuss plans for peace.

“They have sworn on the Koran that they will stop killing each other. Arabs killing Arabs will not continue in this country.”

“I think this is a good day for Iraq,” said U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Zalmay Khalilzad. “The people of Iraq are starting to get organized so they can take on more responsibility for their own country.”

Also attending the ceremony was Iraqi Minster of Defense Gen. Abdul Quder Muhammed, the governors of Salah Ad Din, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk provinces; and a host of local leaders.

The 4th IA Div. is the second division in Task Force Band of Brothers area of operations to make this transition.

The 5th IA Div. assumed the lead for security operations in Diyala Province in July. Throughout northern Iraq, 33 battalions, nine brigades and two divisions have demonstrated their ability to operate independently and now lead the fight against terrorists and anti-Iraqi forces.
