Beloved former congress-lady Cynthia McKinney is the Green Party’s presidential candidate! She’s in it to win! The Greens had a convention on Saturday, apparently, and McKinney was the big winner. Her running mate is “Rosa Clemente, a hip-hop artist and activist.” Well, all right.
McKinney represented Georgia in the House for six terms, and then she slapped around a cop or something, and said Bush did 9/11, and the Jews ran her out of office, and she impeached Bush, in her mind. Experts say she will end up with about 47% of votes intended for McCain, because their names are pretty much the same. [Reuters]
I thought the ticket was Nader/McKinney?
What’s with the bait and switch, green party?
Well, that’s a slap in the face to the establishment.
Yep. There go two votes.
Can Michelle Obama debate Cynthia McKinney? Because that could be as beneficial to the Dems as Jesse Jackson threatening to slough off Barry’s nuts and berries.
I’m sorry but neither of them appear to be very green.
Unfortunately for her, she’s going to be turned away at the gate of the shining palace where the nominees will hold their debates. And even pommeling the security guard won’t make the pain go away.
Cynthia McKinney’s commenter name is AngryBlakGirl.
Spoilers. You’ll cost the Dems victory in Utah. I hope you two are happy with yourselves.
Georgia cannot embarass itself enough. You go girl. Tupac brought down the World Trade Center to show The Man he will not be disrespected.
This is going to be fun. We have McKinney running on the Green Party (”Live Green”) ticket, Bob Barr on the Libertarian (”Liberty for America”) ticket and Nader running on the Douchebag (”Official Nader store now open”)ticket.
If they ran as the Lezbo party they could get my vote… but only if I can watch.
At last the vagina-or-die voters have an actual vagina to vote for! So far they’ve been forced to pretend that WALNUTS’ wrinkled up man meat was a good substitute, but who orders steak-umms when there’s filet mignon on the menu?
Now we all know what Imus would say…”talk about some nappy…”
Tinfoil-hatters unite!
Cicada: or is that slim-jim vs. butterflied filet?
Cicada:
Problem. Not white.
The press conferences should be fun. I can imagine any of the big journalists asking them a question, but thinking “please don’t cut me.”
MoodProcessor: Ha! Much better analogy. Ooh - how about a chicken finger vs. a canned ham?
I’d hit it with a civil lawsuit!
ManchuCandidate: But..but..the PUMAs always SWORE it wasn’t about race. Ed Hale PROMISED. Oh noes! There goes the dream of vagiocracy. Crushed beneath the iron heel of the Choclocrats (or is that Oreocrats?).
And 50 Cent will be Sec. of the Treasury.
Guess America’s not ready for its first African American female hip-hop president.
McKinney’s veep is Rosa Clemente???
What, L’il Kim was “too busy?”
Did Nader ever hit a policeman in the chest with a phone?
HomoPolitico: Kimora Lee Simmons for Secretary of State! She looks much better in heels than does Condi (which isn’t saying much, I know).
I always thought Cynthia McKinney and John McCain were the same person.
Surely there is room for MC Rove in their administration.
Canmon (the Inadequate): They are.
Black people are now faced with too many candidates to vote for. I did NOT see that coming.
if rosa’s related to roberto, that’s the kind of all-star synergy we can believe in.
shortsshortsshorts: Obviously a mistake. They are from the Brown Party. Duh.
None of this helps the left’s image as gay ass, war-ending, vagina-toting cowtowers of the festering “Negro” agenda.
Is it just me, or does Rosa Clemente look like Obama in drag? That’s a ticket I could get behind.
Every vote for McKinney brings us one step closer to finding Tupac’s killer.
Gotta get me some of that green, babe. Yeah, I’m cast all my votes for hemp/not jails and mountaintop replacement.
When Oliver Stone makes his inevitable, terrible movie about this election, the actress who played Lisa “One Night” Standing from The Abyss should play Cynthia, and then have her scenes cut because Cynthia will have no effect on this election whatsoever.
What this nation needs is a president that will punch her own Secret Service detail.
The only thing standing between Cynthia and the Oval Office is the J-E-W-S.
And the rest of America. Them, too.
ManchuCandidate: But she does look bitter!
Finally, a hillary follower gets her dues.
I for one, welcome our gynocracy overladies.
The Afro-Latino coalition ascendent!
Now, for Obama to pull a rabbit from his hind-quarter & tab Ken Salazar as his running-mate.
And people wonder why nobody takes the Green Party seriously…..
My main problem is that they aren’t black enough
When I think the green movement, the next thing that comes to mind is hip-hop
When I think hip-hop, the next thing I think is a green movement.
Perfect combination.
Wait. If Walnuts picked a hip-hop artist as VP (in front of his green backdrop), we’ve have this thing sown up. Bye bye hopey
Oh, nigress, please.
once upon a time, i had the misfortune of stumbling onto one of Miss Rosa Clementes episodes of acting out….
lets just say that she clearly did not understand the situation at hand…and it was apparent that all that mattered was her personal agenda of publicity seeking…
i dont usually picks on folks for their ability to speak or write [i was raised to speak several of the more garbled dialects in the US myself]….but i swear, this woman can not put two sentences together that make sense…period…
lots and lots of words come out of her mouth, but not a lick of sense…
way to go Green Party…

since I don’t no shit about html, this may not work. If so, please drive thru. Thank you.
Canuckledragger: That’s Lil’ Kim, my Canadian friend.
At least Jesse wont be chopping off her testicles any time soon.
great how one can also book a gig on her Green home page…never to busy for the fans.
anabellum: the comment i wrote above sounds stilted…..truth is, i really dislike the woman, there are few people that i consider to be more full of shit….
i was trying not to go off on a standard rabid type rant……as a consequence i seem to have channeled my mother…
im sure you can understand how embarrassing that might be…
That picture just cries out “this is going to work out just great.” Yup.
Is it a bad sign for a VP candidate to be a Dead Prez fan?
