		<description>If these references I cite as evidence were not relevant then you have nothing to fear. But look at how a few people have gone overtime to defend the ideas and opinions of one individual. They are trying to jack boot stomp out anyone who disagrees. 

For the record, Karen Stepanki is also a false i.d. It&#039;s someone who lies about me and stalks me. It shows how little a life the person has to continually follow me around and stalk me.</description>

		<description>Seriously? That&#039;s surprising. Pritt usually describes people who disagree with him as being worse than Nazis, as shown in this charmer of a post from DailyKos:


&quot;Also, in my life, I face ridicule by a few individuals. Google, &quot;DREW PRITT&quot; sometime and see the trash written about me at a site called Encylopedia Dramatica or a site called Our Campaigns. These people don&#039;t know me but they write gossip and lies and speak it like it&#039;s truth. The Nazis could have taken lessons from them. They have no remorse&quot;

		<description>Jews Against The Occupation Defends Cynthia Against Libelous Charges Of Anti-Semitism

http://www.allthingscynthiamckinney.com/node/307

November 3, 2004
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Dear Editor,

Congratulations to Rep. Cynthia McKinney on her recent electoral victory! We are proud to offer collective Jewish support for her office and the courageous and principled public stand she continues to take by supporting a sustainable end to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Along with many American Jews, Jews Against the Occupation does not support the Israeli military occupation of Palestine. We maintain that the wellbeing of Jews everywhere is not secured as long as the Palestinian people remain subjugated. A lasting peace is achieved through mutual respect and recognition of all peoplesâ€™ inherent right to self-determination.

Criticism of Israel does not equal antisemitism. We applaud the people of metropolitan Atlanta for acknowledging this fact and reinstating a legislator of conscience.

Sincerely,
Jews Against the Occupation

		<description>Yawn....

You still cannot back up what you say about Cynthia. Saw your YouTube posts on your blog.  Old news, Drew, old news. Very old news. And this is your &quot;proof&quot;?????

I already posted the link of McKinney&#039;s statement denouncing anti-Semitism that she released after all of that happened.  

And you are also racially profiling her campaign contribution list. And you fail to support the statement that YOU made in your amateurish, hackneyed article: â€œCynthia McKinney has openly attacked members of the Jewish communityâ€¦â€ 

Where is the proof, Drew? Support your statements. Back your statements up, Drew, if you can&#039;t, don&#039;t post them and slander a woman who has done nothing but stand up and speak for those who are voiceless. 

Zionism is racism, and I certainly would not ask you to define anything as you do nothing but spin and lie and you are ahistorical. Zionism denies the existence of Palestine and its people, paints of Eurocentric picture of the Jewish people,  and Zionism seeks to justify Israel&#039;s monsterous theft of Palestine and continuous abuse of the Palestinian people.</description>

		<description>You did not shoot anything down. The truth is so hard to take. Then you add your own spin. Only one source was FOX News. I guess CBS, CNN, US News and World Report, and DEMOCRACY NOW are all in on this supposed conspiracy? Give me a break!

You also call me a Zionist like its a bad thing. Its not, I am proud to be a Zionist!

What is a Zionist you may ask?

Zionism is an international political movement that originally supported the reestablishment of a homeland for the Jewish People in Israel (Hebrew: Eretz Yisra&#039;el, â€œthe Land of Israelâ€), and continues primarily as support for the modern state of Israel.</description>

		<description>I shot him down with fact. This person is a nobody who cannot document his allegations, that has been brought to light, and he cannot respond. It&#039;s not about &quot;picking&quot; on someone. or ad hominems. As I said, I do not know why a Zionist would take such an interest in the Green party, anyway. 

Yes, we should move on. 

PS Nice sources from FOX NEWS, by the way.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not really sure why we&#039;re spending so much time picking on Drew Pritt.  As he fairly noted, a post from his personal blog was cited here (fairly enough, as it dealt with the Green Party) and instead of debating its merits, many of the comments have been ad hominems.  Can we just move on?</description>

		<description>&quot;The Council on American-Islamic Relations sent out an E-mail asking people to &#039;support Cynthia McKinney â€¦ Pro-Muslim candidate. Supporter of Palestinian State for over 7 years. Against Secret Evidence. Against Aid to Israel.&#039; &quot;

In other words, she stands for justice. As I said, most Greens would fit this description.</description>

		<description>Zionism is racism, Drew and it is your Arab-bashing, &quot;Some three-quarters of McKinneyâ€™s contributions came from people with Muslim or Arab names&quot; is racist. 

I do not condone Cynthia&#039;s father&#039;s word choice, and he was wrong to substitute the word &quot;Jews&quot; for the AIPAC and the American Zionist lobby who maliciously went after Cynthia because she was one of the few people on the hill who gave voice to Palestinian suffering under Israel&#039;s brutal and illegal occupation of their land. What they did to Cynthia is repugnent. 

But as I said, you Zionists do not speak for all Jews and yes, Bill McKinney should know that. But Cynthia as I pointed out, rebuked all anti-Semitism. And if you are a Zionist, the Green Party should be of no interest to you as its core membership is anti-Zionist. 

And you DO NOT speak for all Jewish people. And accusing those of us who call you out as a Zionist of being &quot;conspiracy theorists&quot; is intellectually lazy on your part. 

Also, you said in your original letter, &quot;Cynthia McKinney has openly attacked members of the Jewish community...&quot; these are your words, and now you are flip-flopping, going after her father after it has been proven that not only she did not say anything anti-Semitic, but that she denounced anti-Semitism. As I said, the truth is too inconvenient for you so now you are flip-flopping. Typical Democratic Party hack. Keep it up and maybe you&#039;ll get a job with the DLC or with AIPAC.</description>

		<description>Are you a practicing Jew? What does it say about honoring thy father? You would McKinney to renounce her dad?

What the American-Islamic whatever said is true and not offensive.

Um, yes, U.S. News &amp; World Report is part of the neocon media, so, yeah, they are part of the &quot;conspiracy.&quot;</description>

		<description>Jesse Jackson, Jr. condemned his father&#039;s statements, yet McKinney has yet to do so.

Her father, Georgia state legislator Billy McKinney, shared his version with an Atlanta television reporter on August 19, 2002, the night before she lost. The reporter had asked Billy McKinney about his daughter&#039;s use of a years-old, moth-balled endorsement from former Atlanta mayor Andrew Young. Such endorsements were worthless, the elder McKinney replied, because &quot;Jews have bought everybody. Jews.&quot; In case the reporter didn&#039;t understand, he spelled the word: &quot;J-E-W-S.&quot; 

Also......

The Council on American-Islamic Relations sent out an E-mail asking people to &quot;support Cynthia McKinney ... Pro-Muslim candidate. Supporter of Palestinian State for over 7 years.
