Cynthia McKinney HAHA

[Bigox911]

She is the dumb B in congress from GA (not my district thank goodness) that is always badmouthing Pres. Bush...and then if you notice in EVERY State of the Union he's given she's on the center row in a bright a red dress acting like his best friend.

WASHINGTON — U.S. Capitol Police are investigating an incident in which one of its officers allegedly tried to stop Rep. Cynthia McKinney, D-Ga., from bypassing a security checkpoint and ended up getting punched in the chest.

"I was urgently trying to get to an important meeting on time to fulfill my obligations to my constituents. Unfortunately, the police officer did not recognize me as a member of Congress and a confrontation ensued. I did not have on my congressional pin..."

Capitol Police pinned a picture of McKinney to an office wall, warning officers to learn her face because she refuses to wear her member's pin.

She needs to wear the proper identifications, seems pretty clear to me. Maybe this will help drive that home...but probably not.

McKinney has often complained of mistreatment of African-American members of Congress regarding security checks on Capitol Hill.

It probably doesn't help that image if your first instinct is to hit a cop if they try to stop you after you ignore their verbal warnings. I ownder how many white members of congress refuse to wear their pins and bypass metal detectors wihtout the occassional problem with the police? I'm having a difficult time thinking this is a racial issue.

Idiot.

If that woman is not willing to submit to security checkpoints, then she does not deserve to hold office.

The article suggests that all lawmakers are given the privlidge of bypassing those checkpoints in certain buildings (presumably the capitol hill building where they would be well known). I wonder how many exercise that privlidge and how many opt to wait in line like the rest of us?

Who wouldn't use the option of skipping the line? I know I would if given the chance.

The lady is a moron btw
