U. S. Capitol Police took steps toward obtaining an arrest warrant for McKinney, who tangled with the uniformed officer. The police turned results of their investigation over to federal prosecutors. A spokesman for U. S. Attorney Kenneth Wainstein says he is reviewing the merits.

Yep, that's her. That's my girl. My Representative in the United States Congress, Cynthia McKinney. Cynthia, while spitting on the grave of Martin Luther King Jr's peaceful movement to raise up minorities while fostering true co-existance, decided to act like a 5 yr old throwing a temper tantrum when asked by an adult to do the right thing.

Even my very liberal hometown paper, the Atlanta Journal/Constitution slapped Cynthia on the wrists with it's editorial position. Basically it said that McKinney should have simply stopped, looked the capital police right in the eye , smiled and introduced herself as Congress woman Cynthia McKinney, from the great state of Georgia. But no. She had to cry wolf once again, claim it was racism and sexism while dragging the NAACP and NOW into the issue.

She divides the races even more, and she doesn't care. It's all for her own political aggrandizement. I think she actually enjoys creating strife and angst, instead of acting like a sensible, reasonable and respected member of the US House.

She's a complete disgrace, and I hope she is tossed out on her ass.

I agree! where does she get off? She was not wearing ID, refused to stop when asked repeatedly, then attacks the police officer? What a crock! The she says she was abused? No way!

About a week ago , Ms McKinney , Georgia's 4th District Congress woman to the US House of Representitives, was walking into the the Captiol building in Washington D.C. She walked around the metal detector station and strode right past the guards. She wasn't wearing her Congressional ID pin, and when the guard asked her to stop, she just kept on walking. He asked her two more times, and she ignored him. Finally, the guard put his hand out to stop her, she turned around and struck him in the chest. Hitting a Capitol Building police officer is a felony. At first she acknowledged the incident, and simply said she regretted that it happened. After a postponed press conference last week, and a hastily arranged show of support from the likes of Danny Glover and Harry Belefonte, Ms McKinney blasted back that SHE was the victim, and that the police officer sworn to protect her and everyone else in the Capitol building, was out of line. She's crying racism, crying sexism.... crying wolf. And I find it pointless, disgusting and disgraceful.

If that's what happened (and I see no reason to assume that it's not) then she's acting like a child trying to cover butt. But that's not too unusual for people in power who assume people "just know" who they are. Hey, maybe she was having a really bad day or something, we're all human and we slip up - but she should've stuck with her first reaction. Own up, apologize, maybe invite the guy for dinner or something to make up, and be mature about it. Re-election is going to be a tough bid now.

I've had the disfortune to see U.S. congressmen in person, and a lot of them think the world revolves around them. So, I understand how some of them react when they aren't immediately recognized and bowed to.

Her reaction towards the capitol officer who stopped her was certainly overblown, and I agree she should've apologized. Unfortunately, her ego wouldn't allow her to do that, and she's only made it worse by her ridiculous and totally unfounded accusations.

And apparently, this isn't the first time this woman has roughed up an officer of the law. She seems to have a history of this.

Why people keep re-electing people like this is beyond me.

My dad was a Metropolitan policeman in DC in the late 50's/early 60's, and I learned at a very young age that when a policeman tells you to "stop", you STOP. You certainly, under no circumstances, ever push, shove, swipe at or punch a police office.

She's lucky she didn't wind up in the clinker -- which is what I would've done, had I been the officer. I'm sure if there were surveillance cameras there (and there should be at such checkpoints), it will show exactly what happened.

I have been following this case w/ some interest. I must admit this particular elected "official" is a disgrace and dishonors an already corrupt and disfunctional legaslative body.

The "support" she is getting from Glover & Belafonte is a joke. Obviously this is just Hollywood types trying to mix it up in politics which obviously doesn't work out well. I am sure they only got her side of the story & did not bother to look at facts. All they want to see is a black woman being attacked by a white police officer. Guess they "overlooked" the fact she had no visible i.d., the officer did not know her on site, she went around the metal detectors, and ignored repeated requests to stop. Top it off with the fact she assaults a police officer.

Now think about this a moment. If anyone here, anyone did what she had done, there is no doubt that we would have been apprehended forcibly & if we had struck the officer we would have been taken down hard, cuffed and arrested & drug off to jail.

Too many use the "racisim" card to cover their own wrong actions or racisim and politically correct society makes people too afraid to stand up them for fear of persecution by the vocal minority.

All I can say is I hope that this woman is censured, fined, publically apologizes to the officer for her actions, to the public for wasting our tax dollars, and is made to serve community service.

Of course this is not the first time McKinney has been in trouble.

This may not be racism or sexism, but it is definitely class descrimination.

The officer obviously held a prejudice against people who broke the law.

She's accused of committing a serious crime and an even more serious social gaff. Her response is to hide behind her race and gender. In other words she is acting like a typical liberal Democratic leader who happens to be a minority. Its never about what they did or did not do...its always the color of their skin or whether their reproductive organs are internal or not.

Lets compare this to Delay. Accused of a crime, yes he attacked the political motivations of his accuser, rightfully as it turned out, but he never once claimed that he was being singled out as a white male. Even minority republicans rarely bring out the race card and even then it has to be an open and obvious circumstance, like the race baiting in the Maryland campaigns or the racist attacks on Condi Rice.

Liberals, particularly liberal minorities lack the ability to account for personal responsibility. I think its partly a sense of entitlment and partly a fear of showing weakness.
