Democrat Cynthia McKinney, wearing a black veil, told attendees she was ashamed of her country’s policies.

Quote
Addressing an international conference dubbed ‘International Coalition against Terrorism for Fair Peace’ here in Tehran on Saturday, the former US House member urged Washington to avoid imposing its will on the world nations through the use of force, violence and weapons.

“As an American, I am upset with the policies of my country, but the measures adopted by the first Afro-American president of the United States has ashamed us all,” she said.

“If there is no truth, there won’t be any justice, and today the US policies are rooted in lies, injustice and war,” she continued.

Noting the United States’ aggravating economic conditions, she said the high rate of infant death toll in the United States is even worse than the European Union.

If this were still a sane country, say pre-1960, we'd let her back in only to prosecute her for treason.

The Iranians are probably laughing their asses off over how easy it is to manipulate an ignorant turd like McKinney .

Voltaire, French author, humanist, rationalist, & satirist (1694 - 1778):

A witty saying proves nothing.

Regarding Cynthia McKinney, let me paraphrase:

A Nitwit saying nothing proves everything.
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

We know the world is upside down when people like this are taken seriously by someone somewhere.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

A treason conviction followed by a quick execution could be viewed from a certain point of view as being a most merciful act.
We are now where The Founders were when they faced despotism.
