Who needs rules?
U.S. Representative Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) punched a Capitol police officer on Wednesday afternoon.
Witnesses say McKinney pulled her arm away, and with her cell phone in hand, punched the officer in the chest.
An unconfirmed statement attributed to McKinney has been released on the Internet, where she allegedly claims to have been harassed by Capitol Hill Police.
The statement's writer says that she has been harassed by white police officers she says do not recognize her due to her recently changed hairstyle.
"Do I have to contact the police every time I change my hairstyle? How do we account for the fact that when I wore my braids every day for 11 years, I still faced this problem, primarily from certain white police officers," the statement says.
Never mind that you're supposed to wear your lapel pin as your credentials, Cynthia, oh no, the rules don't apply to you, do they and therefore, its okay to assault a police officer?
You are a disgrace to your state, your office, and this country.
UPDATE: This was her 5th run in with the law on the same issue. Last time she said: "I am absolutely sick and tired of having to have my appearance at the White House validated by white people."
What a racist.

Thanks Mikey. Good to see you!

This is the best advertising Cynthia could give her party on the unveiling of the Democrats "Security Plan". She thinks 'lawmakers' are above the law and the rules. Just like Bubba's clan.
Great Race Card Graphic!!!

You are absolutely right Jack!
Glad you like the graphic!

McKinney is the type of racist that seems to believe that everything that happens around her has to do with the color of her skin and nothing to do with the content of her character.

Excellent graphic! I posted a couple of pieces about McKinney over the last two days.
Posted by: Craig C at April 1, 2006 10:13 AM
Boom!!! That card says it all. She really only cares about what they can take from others and give to their close personal group.
She is as close to anyone who deserves to be fired out of this world. Let the 2nd Civil War begin.

The only people who believe McKinney are the same people who believe O.J. is innocent.
Love the race card.
Posted by: DADvocate at April 3, 2006 05:09 PM
She is a true racist. Her simple rule of thumb is if she ever suffers from adversity, "blame it on whitey." What a horrible role model for black youth. She sets back civil rights 30 years with her comments.

Blogger doesn't do trackbacks ... but I included the graphic and have been linked to all over the Cheddarsphere. Included a hat tip to this webpage and it has been linked to be several highly read websites.
Your graphic was, in a word, brilliant!

Good thing that Ms. McKinney didn't try the same stunt at the Quantico marine base - or most any other military base for that matter. As a retired Air Force guy and current DoD contractor I have visited many military bases post 9-11 and have seen the loaded-gun-ready-to-fire security. Had she tried that at Quantico she'd now be on a cold slab as the marines did what they're trained to do. Because of the Lebanon barracks bombing and the current terrorist threat they don't take chances. Kind of makes you wonder about how good the "security" at the capitol building really is.

Caution.....When asking Ms Mckinny to show her race card.......Stand back....Slappy can go Capital Hill on you at anytime!
