| #5 Last time she blamed the Hindus... HON. CYNTHIA A. McKINNEY of Georgia in the House of Representatives Monday, September 30, 2002 Ms. McKINNEY . Mr. Speaker, as you know, I recently suffered a setback in my bid for reelection. I am beginning to get over the disappointment that I will no longer be able to serve the people of Georgia in the next Congress. I will miss serving. However, there were some alarming things about the campaign to defeat me that I think my colleagues of both parties should look out for. I am not talking about the Republicans who crossed over to vote for my opponent, but the heavy involvement of Indians in the primary. I am one of the Members of Congress who has tried to get out the truth about South Asia, and I am proud of that. Earlier this year, I was one of 42 Members of Congress who wrote to President Bush to urge the release of Sikh and other political prisoners in India. Apparently, this irritated the Indians because the newspaper article I am inserting in the Record along with this statement shows that they admitted that they invested heavily in the effort to defeat me. To my colleagues of both parties who have also been involved in the effort to expose India's brutal record, I say: Watch out; they are coming after you, too. India has a record of illegal interference in U.S. elections. Former Ambassador S.S. Ray publicly urged the reelection of former Senator Larry Pressler and in opposition to now Senator Robert Torricelli. An Indian American immigration lawyer named Lalit Gadhia funneled money from the Indian Embassy to Congressional candidates, according to the Baltimore Sun. Most of the candidates were of my party, people I am proud to have had as my colleagues during my service in Congress. But it is still illegal and wrong for India to funnel Embassy money to these Members' campaigns. Now I have become the latest political officeholder in India's cross hairs. I won't be the last unless their activities are exposed. Mr. Speaker, whether I am in office or not, I don't intend to let a foreign power determine the results of American elections if I can help it. Mr. Speaker, I would like to insert the article showing Indian involvement in my primary into the Record to help expose their activities. |

| #4 Would you expect anything less from a panther lovin, nation of islam supporter, liberal democrat? Wait, she is supposed to be a liberal? How does that racism come from a democrat? I thought they and the ACLU fought for the minority rights. Oh, thats right the JOOOOS own everything and have all the land in the middle east. They aren't a minority. |

| #3 She had the full support and backing of Minister Louis Farrakhan. I simply cannot understand or accept her defeat. I blame the voting machines. |
