Ex-Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, In Iran, Says Sarah Palin Helped ‘Hijack’ The Tea Party

video
» 87 comments

In an interview with PressTV of Iran, former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney said the Tea Party movement “was definitely hijacked.” McKinney, making her first visit to Iran to attend an anti-terrorism seminar, told her interviewer that there was “tremendous pressure inside the political process to make sure that the voters stay aligned inside either the Democratic or the Republican parties, because both of those parties have been captured by special interests.”

McKinney suggested the Tea Party was an example of a grassroots movement “hijacked” and then “corralled back into the Republican Party fold so that these could then stay where the powers that be would like them to be.” McKinney said Sarah Palin was a key part of that effort:

The people of the Tea Party were originally angry about the direction of their country. And who would not be angry at the direction that the United States has taken now? They initially said that they would vote neither Democrat nor Republican; that they were independent voters. And then what happened? The powers that be sent Sarah Palin in, and corralled this group of independent voters, and captured them again for the Republican party.

McKinney also told PressTV that as a member of Congress from Georgia, the most powerful special interest she faced was the “pro Israel lobby.” McKinney said her support of Palestine has left her “with a target on my forehead and that then means that every means that is available to the pro Israeli lobby would be utilized to make sure that I do not ever occupy a position of authority.”

    She continues to be Georgia’s embarrassment!

    This is your take on her “interview”? WOW; talking about missing the story.

  • Harry Flashman

    Palin should use wack-job McKinney’s statement as a promo for her campaign. “Cynthia McKinney hates me” should be good for a few thousand votes.

  • Harry Flashman

    Palin should also hold McKinney up as an example of the left and their duisdain for America. Appearing on Iranian TV – or with Hugo Chavez, for that matter – and trashing the US could and should be viewed as treason.

    ” the pro Israeli lobby would be utilized to make sure that I do not ever occupy a position of authority.”

    Blame the Jews but it was the Capital Hill Police that are raising enough money to assure that you never again return to that city.

    Off course, they hijacked it. The GOP are used to crap like this, the minute they let Armney and the rest of the phonies joined them, that marked the obituary of the movement.

    McKinney is only an example of only herself. Contrary to the endless partisan nonsense, neither the left or right in this country disdains America. McKinney disdains America because she thinks she is somehow better than the rest of us. Nobody likes McKinney except for the serious whack jobs and such. She should stay in Iran and experience what her beloved Arabs think of women.

    And going to Iran is not exactly the act of a patriot. It is the act of a cowardly traitor seeking a friendly audience for her hate and anger.

    The most powerful special interest she faced is the voters of Georgia, who had no tolerance for a hate filled anti-semitic, race-baiting corrupt nut bag. She might want to note that there is not exactly a large Jewish population in her former district.

    It is the endless partisan nonsense like “their disdain for America,” that lies at the root of our problems. Maybe if people laid off the hate for a minute and listened, they would find out that most people agree on most stuff. Whether you like it or not, we are all Americans and share a love for this country. One of the principles we are founded on is the ability to disagree without consequence. Something that the extremes on both sides no longer tolerate. And that intolerance for differing opinions is why we cannot solve our problems.

  • BatBoy

    Maybe McKinney should stay in IRAN forever.

    With no intention of pointedly going after Keeva, I want to point out how the left always seems to want to be reasonable when someone on their side does something stupid.

    When Gabby Giffords was shot in Arizona they viciously attacked the right in general and Palin specifically, then when the backlash against their attacks started they made soothing noises and told us all how we should tone down the rhetoric and be nice.

    They stick to that until the next thing happens and then they go back to being as ugly and vicious as ever.

    So, to all you lefties out there – spare me the lectures about civility until you can practice what you preach.

    Truthers, yes. They claim that America attacked itself, and that belief is inherently harmful and self-hating.

    The others, not so much. McKinney is a fringe nut job who, while she has the right to say whatever, is a seriously deranged person. Her entire retinue is hate and anger.

    You mistake disagreement with policy for whatever you see it as. I am not a fan of Code Pink or Greenpeace, but I do not believe they are somehow anti-American.

    There are those who would tell you that birthers and Tea Partiers are harming America as well. I disagree. While I may not share all of those views, I respect and defend their right to have them and express them.

    Again, it is the fact that we can disagree without fear of reprisal that makes us a strong nation. The condemnation of dissenting opinions as un-American or unpatriotic is sad and pointless.

    The Atlantic article has a better capture of how increcibly anti-semitic her interview was, the Palin stuff is simply nothing by comparison.

    The Atlantic transcript includes this from her Iranian TV interview , ”

    Press TV: I just want to get into this pledge a little bit more. So this is basically something that is mandatory, that every Congressperson has to sign saying that what Jerusalem as you said is the capital of Israel, and what else?

    McKinney: You make a commitment that you would vote to support the military superiority of Israel that the economic assistant that Israel wants that you would vote to provide that.

    Press TV: …they are supposed to be representing the people of the United States not a foreign country and yet they have to pledge allegiance to a foreign state? No one questions this?

    McKinney: That is what I was asked to do and I made it public.

    She is on Iranian state TV with her Israeli hate. Really disgusting.

    I don’t have a clue how Palin is the headline here. A former Congresswoman go to Iran, says she was required to pledge American military support for Israel, which is basically telling the Iranian people that the Jews control the US congress. She’s despicable.

    I’ve been saying all along that Sarah Palin hijacked the tea party, who they followed blindly, making her rich in the process through her speach appearances, book purchases, and SarahPAC. They were so duped and infatuated by her that they failed to see and admit that she is nothing but a fraud, liar, and an opportunist.

    I have many friends from Iran. Until they feel safe returning home, I don’t think we should worry about improving relations. How laughable that there would be an anti-terrorism conference in Iran, the country that sponsors more terror than any other. It’s a shame that the former congresswoman is so FOS, because I’ve always thought she was kinda cute. Especially the shots of her with the wild hair and crazy look.

    She’s related to him in the fact that he holds her old House seat. Hank Johnson beat her in a primary after even her train had gone too far off the rails for that district. That was a very interesting evening.

Anyone who can’t agree on that point is more out of touch with reality than McKinney.

    Don’t be so rough on sister Sarah. She’s trying to make the most out of what little she has.

    When Cynthia lost her race the first time , she blamed “the Jews” .

    When she lost the second time , she blamed “the Jews ” , and instead of a concession speech , there was a huge fight and the cops were called .

    Democrats should be proud of this typical liberal .

    She is the little commie bitch who makes all commie bitches look bad. So they cut her loose. Now she’s on a worldwide speaking tour of Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran, with North Korea probably somewhere on her itinerary. Wasn’t she in Gaza recently?

    Hey, wow, she’s still alive! I thought she died of stupidity.

    The powers that be are very threatened by the notion that people should vote on issues. Making it a sin to vote for either one party or the other is a luxury that I don’t think we can afford anymore.
