#1 Any of the multitude of comments that come to mind could be construed as racist. Ergo, I'll pass and return to watching "Planet of the Apes" on cable TV...

#4 Not EVERYONE's an idiot from her district. I am from her district and have voted against her every chance I've gotten. So have alot of others. We ousted her not too long ago. Unfortunately, the lady who beat her decided she wanted to be a senator, left...and the lunacy returned. Here's hoping two's a charm.

#5 Has anyone considered asking Denise Majette(?) if she's willing to run again? She beat McKinney once.

She ran for (and won) a higher office.

#9 Actually, her district is not ALL moonbattery. The northern part of it (DeKalb County) is very upper middle class (mostly white and Asian) and can't STAND her. Unfortunately, that's a small portion of her entire district (the central and southern parts of the County are very "urban" let's say). Needless to say, she never shows her face up north, and does nothing for that part of the district (Dunwoody area). Of course, that portion of the County was just enough to get Majette on the ticket several years ago, as they switched parties to vote in the Donk's primary (knowing that in the election total, the Donk will win, so why not Majette instead of McKinney).

#10 Also, RC, she failed in winning her (Majette) run for a Senate seat in D.C. for Georgia. I don't know where Majette ended up, but it wasn't in the Senate (those 2 seats are solidly Repubs).

#11 Uh, what's the difference between "dumb" and "stupid", except in the literal "can not speak" sense of "dumb"? Just curious. Am I dumb, stupid, stoopid, or do I just have "issues"? Or all of the above?

#12 Dumb technically means unable to speak.

Dumb in this context means lacking in intelligence.

Stupid, on the other hand, to me means you know something is wrong and you repeatedly do it anyway. Deliberate ignorance also falls into that category.

#13 Is anything going to come over her "scuffle"?

#14 Going to have to start calling her 'Betsy' (as in Betsy the COW) due to her cow-eye stare.....
