McKinney Appears on Far-Right Antisemitic Radio Show

Moonbats • Views: 24,799

Former US Representative and last year’s Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney is getting more and more insane: Cynthia McKinney Interviewed on Far-Right Racist Radio Program.

Continuing to increase her political connections with the extreme far right (as I documented here and here), former U.S. Representative and 2008 Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney has appeared on a far-right, anti-Semitic internet radio program. On April 30, she was interviewed for over an hour on the “The Information Underground” by the program’s host, who calls himself “Ognir”.

Previous broadcasts of the show have titles such as “Jewish Domination and the World as we know it”, “Crimes of the Zionists”, “the Zionist Criminal Network”, “Jewish takeover of Christianity”, “Eugenocide”, “The International Jews Bankers” (sic), “Jewish Worldwide Propaganda System”, “Jews Behind Every Rock”, and “Jews Israel and 9/11”.

Wow, this is true wraparound - from the left to the right.

Perhaps she's just a media hound desperate for attention. Makes sense, as a former congresscritter.

Why does this not surprise me? Just once I would like to be surprised by McKinney acting like a civilized human being.

During my far-too-slow shift, as a youngster, from left to right, one of the deciding factors was the prevalence of absolute raving lunatics and similar kindred spirits on the left. Staring that kind of madness full in the face helped me to see that maybe the right wasn't such a bad place to be, after all.

A reject muppet that had an accident near some scissors, and then went through a clothesdryer and then touched a van de Graff generator causing all its hair to stand on end, maybe.

27 Cicero05  Mon, May 4, 2009 9:11:13am

McKinney's issues with Jews have been apparent for a long time. I've observed that for diehard anti-Semites, their hatred of Jews tends to trump other political differences. This is predictable.

Could someone please explain to me what makes Anti Semites and racists "Far Right"?

I consider myself "far right" in the fact that I want secure boarders, little to no government involvement in my daily life, and a government that is dedicated to "forming a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity"

What exactly is "right wing" about hating jews?

Well, "Ognir" sounds faux-Asgaardian, so that might have been an attraction. "Ringo," of course, refers to the fact that people like this are the circle of filthy residue left on an otherwise-pristine porcelain tub.

My impression was that, in the land of songwriting giants, Ringo is the purveyor of silly novelty songs.

Ognir is old Norse for "possessions", if I remember correctly. It's been a while since I had old Norse in my Norwegian classes.

"Getting more insane"?

She's already there. She's the poster child for insane.

And her insanity knows no bounds. Oh, and there's some evidence that Ognir is a white supremacist to boot (particularly in his associations and the circles he apparently travels in).

58 opnion  Mon, May 4, 2009 9:16:05am

It blew me away when some African American leaders broke bad on Jews.
During the Civil Rights Movement Jewish support was prominent.
McKinney is just doing the same thing. She is so addled that she doesn't realize that these people have no use for African Americans either.

The "far right" thing is just a smear against the right that's been repeated often enough that a lot of people have bought into the term "far right = Nazis" which is the furthest thing from the truth since real Nazis are socialists as well as racists and on the left of the spectrum and opposed to communists ever since Mr. Hilter decided he wanted a Russian villa for his summer retreat etc...

You see, Dylan had been classified as a "folk singer"--and for him to go electric meant that he was no longer doing "natural, folk" songs. Never mind that the "folk" had embraced the electric guitar since Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, or even before; "natural" and "folk" had to be honest, acoustic sound.

Perfectly logical if you look at it from the Leftist stasis-in-amber worldview.

"Below you can find the original course material at issue in this case. Professor Robinson circulated the following information on the class listserv for students to consider in conjunction with other course materials. The email contained three main portions: 1) Prof. William I. Robinson’s words regarding Israeli military aggression in Gaza, 2) an article written by a journalist expressing condemnation for the same aggression, and 3) a series of juxtaposed pairs of pictures, one column documenting Nazi violence against Jews during the Holocaust and the second documenting Israeli violence against Palestinians."

Part of Obama's regulatory reforms include the creation of a new "systemic risk regulator" with broad powers to seize large non-bank financial firms, such as insurers, hedge funds or private equity companies, if they are deemed to threaten the stability of the financial system.

In next week's episode of "Going Socialist" Barack will introduce regulations that allow for the seizure of golf cart manufacturers if they don't stop using gasoline engines. And our season finale, the seizure of independent farms that don't cut back on animal flatulence.

re: #179 buzzsawmonkey

I confess Seeger is an inspiration to me. He was quoted, many years ago, as believing that "if we kept singing loudly enough, long enough, we could change things."
And, indeed, Seeger sparked the folk revival, and his music has been instrumental (so to speak) in helping to spread a leftist world view.

I figure if I churn out enough verses and song parodies with a countervailing theme, it could make some small difference.

It's sad to think that people are so shallow that writing some catchy tunes and verses can have such an impact.
It brings truth to the story of the Pied Piper........

re: #179 buzzsawmonkey

I confess Seeger is an inspiration to me. He was quoted, many years ago, as believing that "if we kept singing loudly enough, long enough, we could change things."

And, indeed, Seeger sparked the folk revival, and his music has been instrumental (so to speak) in helping to spread a leftist world view.

I figure if I churn out enough verses and song parodies with a countervailing theme, it could make some small difference.

Ognir = Ringo backwards, eh (I'm a bit slow, or late to the party, perhaps). Any special meaning to a backwards Ringo?

Ringo Starr actually used "Ognir Rrats" as an alter ego for a while (you can't make this stuff up).

Probably a Beatles fan who thinks this is way, WAY cool.

"Authenticity" is one of the Leftist lodestars, but so is stasis; the Left likes to still fantasize that the "working class" is some sort of IWW entity from 1910. Dylan "going electric" went against this fantasy of stasis--never mind that the working class had embraced the electric guitar from the moment it had appeared.

Maybe there was a tad of narcissism on Seeger's part in that Dylan's embrace of the electric guitar went against his tastes, ergo it was inherently wrong.

I'm really glad I read Ayn Rand as a teenager (Atlas Shrugged, We the Living) and James Michener's "The Drifters". Michener's novel was my first exposure to the fact that militant blacks hated Jews. It made no sense to me then, and none now. It began to build the foundation of my very pro-Israel position. The Ayn Rand reading built the foundation for my fiscal conservatism and small government stand. Both books I read before I was 16 years old. It took years for my philosophy to develop, but I'm reminded almost daily of those two authors.

Well, Doc (you don't mind if I call you Doc, do you?) it's like this:

I've heard of the Truman Delusion, and I'm pretty sure LGF doesn't quite match that one, and yet, I've got this suspicion, see. I don't think you're in on it, or even that there's anything to be "in on", but all the same, I keep getting information about things that I just KNOW can't be true.

Take this Obama thing - they expect me to believe that a nobody with no background of any sort can waltz into the White House, and start nationalizing industries all over the place, and no one does anything about it, or even thinks to say something about it? I mean, it's got to be a diagnostic thing, right? I mean, that didn't really happen, did it?

And this Israel/Palestinian thing. Really, Doc, do you expect me to believe that the people here in this country think the Israelis are the bad guys, and the Pali's the victims? Can't be. I'm not crazy, the storyline is.

I guess what I'm getting at is that I'm starting to see through things now, and I can tell this is all some sort of elaborate hoax or test; maybe a practical joke?

I wondered how long it would take people to show up denying that these kooks are "far right."

Not long at all.

It's really sad that some people are so invested in the term "right wing" that they refuse to even see the existence of an extreme right wing.

Yes, there is one. And yes, it's often antisemitic, fascist, and promotes New World Order conspiracy theories, international banker conspiracy theories, and neo-Nazism.

But don't let me me interrupt the denial with any reality. Wouldn't want to do that.

It is a matter of definition of terms and the 'guilt by association, not investment in a term. Clearly institutional racism was a function of our culture and as such was historically 'protected' by a conservative orientation. Thankfully that is breaking down. But to suggest that kooks of the above variety can be lumped into a general conservative grouping is absurd. So either conservatives are not on the 'right' or these folks are not on the 'right' because the values they espouse are antithetical to any conservative valuation.

And on the Faeroe Isles, ogn means property, as in "allmenn ogn" - public domain, or as their wikipedia notes on Ferdinand Marcos:

Tey stýrdu øllum politiskum og fíggjarligum viðurskiftum og stjólu ovurstórar ognir frá filipinska fólkinum. Meðan Marcos var í útlegd í USA, skuldsetti nýggju filipinska stjórnin hann fyri at hava lagt sær og sínum 100-tals milliónir til síðis.

Ognir and McKinney: two loons swimming in the same anti-semitic lake.

It's illuminating and instructive how Jew hatred brings together people who have nothing in common other than their insane conspiracy theories.

This guy seems to be a fascist, and fascism is a left-wing ideology, not a right-wing ideology. In fact, fascism is, by definition, is in contrast with conservatism. It concerns me when people equate ideologies such as fascism and nazism with the far-right when they are leftist. To have you, Charles, perpetuate without question this propaganda is incomprehensible.

re: #305 Haverwilde

It is a matter of definition of terms and the 'guilt by association, not investment in a term. Clearly institutional racism was a function of our culture and as such was historically 'protected' by a conservative orientation. Thankfully that is breaking down. But to suggest that kooks of the above variety can be lumped into a general conservative grouping is absurd. So either conservatives are not on the 'right' or these folks are not on the 'right' because the values they espouse are antithetical to any conservative valuation.

And of course, I never said anything about putting them in a 'conservative' category.

They are espousing an extreme right wing philosophy.

316 Charles Johnson  Mon, May 4, 2009 12:22:14pm

It seems totally uncontroversial to call the extreme right wing what it is. This isn't "guilt by association" at all. Any political orientation, when taken to an extreme, leads to this kind of hatefulness and -- by definition -- extremism.

There are extreme left-wingers, and there are extreme right-wingers. Often they meet at the far edges of totalitarianism, and that's what we're seeing with Cynthia McKinney.

Denying the existence of an extreme right wing is ridiculous, and simply wrong. And it's a waste of energy that would be much better spent in denouncing these kinds of creeps, even when they're "right wing" -- rather than denying they exist.

Ognir = Ringo backwards, eh (I'm a bit slow, or late to the party, perhaps). Any special meaning to a backwards Ringo?

I can clear this up for you. Before Pete Best and Richard Starkey, Joseph Goebbels was the drummer for the Beatles.

318 Paul  Mon, May 4, 2009 12:39:03pm

Anti-semitism, as evidenced by Ognir and McKinney, transcends political labels. Political and religious extremists need an enemy who is responsible for all their perceived problems, Jews (or Zionism as they like to call it) fit the bill perfectly.

Ognir is a right-wing, racist thug; McKinney is a left-wing crackpot. But they both know and agree as to who is really responsible for 9/11 and those chem trails.

I agree with that. Totalitarianism is where the extremes of left and right meet. Lenin and Mussolini, Stalin and Hitler. Today, Al Qaeda and the Eurofascists.

re: #174 Charles

It may help if you were to explain that the terms "Leftist" and "Rightist" do not necessarily lie on a straight line but rather, on a circle. That is to say, if you go far enough in one direction (left or right) you end up meeting people from the other end. They become kissing cousins and often their views will overlap especially in their Populist and Protectionist appeal.

While someone like Pat Buchanan is generally considered to be an extreme Rightist, he is so far right (on the “political circle”) that some of his views overlap those we would consider ultra-Left-Wing, like, say Ralph Nader. And if the overlap isn't overtly apparent, then typically one just needs to scratch below the surface a bit to find the ultimate common denominator: a belief in the almighty and all-powerful Jew.

One does often find (although not always) that the extreme Left and the extreme Right hold hidden & not-so-hidden anti-Semitic views. Why? I’m not sure, but it seems to be their foundational racist plank, the calling-card of their hate, if you will.

Put another way: if you look at any and all groups that hate something, they always hate, as a "lowest common denominator" (of sorts) the Jews. The only exception to this rule is the very recent phenomena of groups in the UK and Europe like the BNP and Vlaams Blok where outright anti-Semitism is still considered uncivilized. Thus they adopt a temporary "plank" of loving all things Jewish and supporting Israel. Don't be deceived by the temporary restraint they've adopted. Their actual urges are to beat up every Jew they can find. They are exercising a high degree of self control at the moment in order to attract more votes, period.

To describe how Hitler combined extreme Left and Right (+ anti-Semitism) is really beyond the scope of this post. But here’s a quick stab. The main point is that he combined extreme Rightists views (trains running on time, strong, proud military) with an almost mystical love of the German land that only "true Germans" can really appreciate (strictly speaking: a far Left view). Since most people are familiar with the Fascistic Right-wing aspects of the Nazis, I’ll skip them.

But there was an additional and equally important extreme Leftist doctrine loosely called “Blut und Boden” (Blood and Soil/Land). This dual theme of "blut" and “boden” (Soil/Land, or more broadly, the Fatherland) are woven together throughout German culture and Hitler smartly latched onto it. Blut und Boden provided him a populist plank which essentially said that Germans were owed the land, including some extra Lebensraum -- "living space.” The whole point being that the Germans could then lead a more natural life, tied to the soil, and not cart around wheelbarrows of money (read: Jews, Capitalists) around -- of course it helped that this view also appealed to the Germanic innate feeling of superiority. Apropos to this post though, it should be noted that these can be viewed as primarily a “Back to Nature” movement not unlike extreme Leftists movements in this country especially during the 1960’s. Extreme Leftists, anti-Technologists, etc share many beliefs with the extreme Rightist.

Re: McKinney. No, it's not true that one always finds racism in the extreme Left or Right, but it's found more often than not. And that racism tends to have a healthy dose of anti-Semitism. In McKinney's case, we find loads of it (unfortunately prevalent in many “Black Muslims" in this country -- and this after the huge amount of help US Jews lent the Civil Rights Movement, giving their lives in some cases -- it's quite sad really). But whether one wants to call McKinney an ultra-Rightist or an ultra-Leftist, there's not a large gap between the two from my neo-Con perspective.

Wrong. Fascist groups have always strongly identified themselves as right wing, and declared the left and left wing thought as their enemies. You're in denial.

That Cynthia McKinney is aligned with Jew-haters is not exactly news. She was, after all, part of that Free Gaza quackery. What puzzles me is that Charles can still use that photo of her, and it never, ever gets old.

re: #174 Charles

In my opinion once someone has gone so far off the deep end they're not really right/left anymore, just insane. McKinney fits that definition. Anyone who proclaims to on the political right then goes over to stuff that advocates genocide/goes against the very grain of basic liberty/independence etc has actually stepped off the platform and boarded the crazy train. Same thing for the "extremists" of the left who advocate being "nice to to the earth" over letting humanity grow and expand etc.

Having never heard of this radio program and just looking at the titles I can't see what makes this radio program a far-right one. Going by the titles of the shows it's without a doubt a racist program but I don't understand the labeling of it as far-right unless your saying that the far-right is by definition racist.

333 Haverwilde  Mon, May 4, 2009 4:17:52pm

re: #315 Charles

They are espousing an extreme right wing philosophy.

Okay I will try it again.

You did not conflate conservatism and ‘right wing.’ I did. I believe in the common parlance that is what is meant by ‘right wing,’ but… not to quibble.

If one assumes there is a ‘right wing,’ it must have some defining character. Otherwise it becomes merely a label that can be applied, or misapplied to anyone or anything. I admit that I tend toward the conservative end of the spectrum, but as far as I can see I have no beliefs in common with the nut cases above. I don’t deny that they exist—they most unfortunately do. And they may even call themselves ‘right wing,’ but what do they, or you, mean by it.

If ‘right wing’ and conservative, are not in any way synonymous, what does ‘right wing’ mean?

It is a minor issue, I understand. But there is a media (and Internet) tendency to smear with a broad brush, and lump reasonable folks in, with kooks, extremists and a**holes. So take my comments as my way of avoiding that ‘lump’ification. As to denunciation of them, I most whole heartedly do so!

334 stanleymberg  Mon, May 4, 2009 4:56:50pm

The Far Left and the Far Right always do meet at Jew-Hating Junction, to paraphrase or plagiarize another comment I already saw on this thread (all apologies - it was a good line, and I'm sorry if I bastardized it). There really is no difference - the extremes are both evil, and they are almost ALWAYS linked by anti-Semitism. Charles is absolutely right to be calling out evil, whether it purports to exist on the "right" or on the "left" end of the spectrum. I use the quotes, because the true extremes are neither "right" nor "left" - they are merely evil totalitarians, usually linked by a shared hatred of Jews.

335 totalkaosdave  Mon, May 4, 2009 4:59:56pm

Jimmah, don't confuse european definitions of left and right with American definitions. Fascism, by definition is government control. American right-wingers are, by definition, for smaller government, less government control, thereby, anti-fascism.
Nazism, from Dissecting Leftism: The Big Lie of the late 20th century was that Nazism was Rightist. It was in fact typical of the Leftism of its day. It was only to the Right of Stalin's Communism. The very word "Nazi" is a German abbreviation for "National Socialist" (Nationalsozialist) and the full name of Hitler's political party (translated) was "The National Socialist German Workers' Party" (In German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei)

I'm not in denial Jimmah, I am correct.

Charles, I understand there are extremists on each wing, sometimes creating the circle, however, let's stick with facts. If I want to get into the semantics games of George Lakoff, I'll go back to "contributing" to the federal government after Obama "restores" the tax rates...

336 GhostShip  Mon, May 4, 2009 5:39:20pm

re: #334 stanleymberg

What makes this radio show right-wing? I haven't seen any comment on this thread that answers that question. The attitude seems to be "well duh, they're racists so of course they're right wing."

That's not a argument. That's a smear on all those who are right-wing.

337 Eclectic Infidel  Mon, May 4, 2009 6:33:00pm

I suppose it's only a matter of time before McKinney appears at an ANSWER rally here in SF, alongside Rich "the dick" Becker & Paul "crazy for Jihad" Larudee.

338 meh130  Mon, May 4, 2009 7:46:20pm

Both the extreme left and the extreme right are anti-semitic.

I'll never forget watching Cythia's father, Billy McKinney, on local TV the night in 2002 she lost the Democrat primary to Denise Majette. The man said "It was the Jews! J - E - W - S Jews!"

I was just stunned, I probably muttered out loud "I can't believe he just said that on live TV." I mean, we all knew Cynthia was the candidate of Hamas, Al-Qaida, CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Saudi Royal family, but I was amazed to see Billy rant about Jews on TV.

I think these two clowns still have sections of I-285 named after them.
