Moonbats have tough choices for their own special candidate

Another entry in the “I can’t believe the crop of idiots running for president” category. Let’s not forget the Green Party’s other possible candidate, Moonbat #2 herself, Cynthia McKinney. She’s out to give old Ralph a run for his money. And boy, is she fired up!!

College Park, Md. (CNSNews.com) - Former Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) said her bid for the White House as a Green Party candidate won’t hurt Sen. Barack Obama or Sen. Hillary Clinton’s chances for being the first African-American or woman U.S. president, respectively, because U.S. elections have been corrupted.

“Basically, what you are suggesting is by participating in the Democratic process the Green Party is going to become, quote, ‘the spoiler,’ “ McKinney told Cybercast News Service at a rally Tuesday at the University of Maryland. “It is impossible to become a spoiler based on past experience when one examines the past.

In a speech given to a small but enthusiastic crowd at the university’s cultural center, McKinney referred to the Reconstruction Party platform, a grassroots organization in New Orleans spawned by Hurricane Katrina, to explain her presidential goals.

McKinney cited the war in Iraq, poverty, homelessness, and other issues as “Hurricane America” and showed a graphic photo of an illegal immigrant who died in a border-crossing accident.

McKinney said all immigrants should receive amnesty, because coming to America to support their families should not be a crime and these workers are an economic necessity.

During a question-and-answer session following her speech, one supporter asked McKinney what caused her to leave the Democratic Party.

“When the Democrat majority could have voted to stop war funding, they didn’t,” McKinney said. “When the Democrat majority could have instituted a ‘livable’ wage, they didn’t. When the Democrat majority could have rolled back the Patriot Act, the Secret Evidence Act, and the Military Tribunal Act, they didn’t.

“I’d had enough of ‘didn’ts’ and wanted to be with people who would,” she added.

McKinney is one of several Green Party candidates seeking the party’s nomination. Former Green Party nominee Ralph Nader has not decided to run for president, but he won the Green Party nomination in the Super Tuesday California primary nonetheless.

Gosh, we’re gonna have a big fight in the Green Party too! When are the debates? Ralph vs Cynthia ... I gotta see this! Well, after I get drunk first

Note: spare your poor old heart and keep your blood pressure in check. DO NOT click on the Reconstruction Platform, where Cynthia lists her DEMANDS. Demand #3 will give you an anuerism.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
