Anyone else remember how the Israeli lobby threw boatloads (pun intended) of cash to McKinney's opponent? Which in turn made her lose her seat in congress? by the nation’s most powerful lobby and attack dog republican group, for her failure to tow the Israeli line, mostly because she confronts corporate media malice in court, defense contractors and jackals during hearings?
Yeah, that Cynthia McKinney.
McKinney Grills Rumsfeld

Child Maid Trafficking Spreads to US
IRVINE, Calif. (Dec. 29) -- Late at night, the neighbors saw a little girl at the kitchen sink of the house next door. They watched through their window as the child rinsed plates under the open faucet. She wasn't much taller than the counter and the soapy water swallowed her slender arms.
To put the dishes away, she climbed on a chair.
Shyima Hall, 19, was just 9 when she began working as a servant for a wealthy couple in Alexandria, Egypt. A year later, the couple moved to California with their five children and took Shyima with them. She worked up to 20 hours a day with no days off. Her pay: $45 a week. She is part of a surge of child trafficking for domestic labor in the United States.
But she was not the daughter of the couple next door doing chores. She was their maid.
I think so...
Child Maid Trafficking Spreads to US?
In America? Really? so these kinds of things are now blatant and out in the open? And not one goddamn law maker, leader, public servant says one goddamn thing about it, and those whom do get shit canned? This is not goddamn acceptable! Either covertly or openly! The American people have become numb and the "leaders" are fucking career treasonous criminals of the highest order. This burns my ass!
If the interweb ever goes down, and they get it back up, the Average American will be happy with only one service: the Celebrity Death Beeper.
