Hit the Road, Fool

Remember This FOOL?

Then-Congresswoman from Georgia, Cynthia McKinney struck a Capitol police officer who asked to see her identification before she was allowed to enter a House building.

McKinney said the officer, who was white, did it because she was “a female black congresswoman.”

He did it because idiot McKinney was not wearing her Congressional ID pin.

The ex-Congressional Representative from Georgia Cynthia McKinney now calls California home.

Georgians want to erase a constant reminder that she ever lived in the Peach State.

A 20 mile stretch of I-285 — which connects downtown Atlanta to the suburb of Stone Mountain — was renamed the Cynthia McKinney Parkway in 2000 after the congresswoman secured $14 million in federal funding for DeKalb County to upgrade what was then called Memorial Drive.

Georgia House Rep. Mike Jacobs who represents part of DeKalb County, is supporting a state resolution proposed last year that calls for the parkway to revert to its original name.

“If had I had to pick any road in the state of Georgia to strip the name from, this would be it.
The original name of the road is Memorial Drive, which is named for the men and women who died protecting our freedom.


Who’s more deserving? I think the question answers itself.

And in light of the fact that her commitment to the state of Georgia is nil, we should re-double our efforts to remove her name from a state road.”
