Another example of how people in control (even mid-level control) view the 'little peeps', even the ones with guns charged with their security.

She's just overt with it.

How can you not feel like a God when everyone comes to YOU for attention?

That's just f***in lame.

I don't even see how sexism could ever ever ever be remotely applied to this situation. Women are less likely to be stopped because we're rarely perceived as threatening.

And whose first instinct is to hit a cop? I've watched people get taken down and charged with felony assault for hitting a police horse with a stick!

From her own mouth: the police are supposed to protect her and everyone in the building which is why HE STOPPED SOMEONE WHO DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE SECURITY CHECKPOINT!

And how is this different from our Republican administration's "accountability for everyone - except for us and our friends" behavior.

Not that I'm defending McKinney in any way. From the sound of this story, she deserves any trouble she gets into over this.

Well if this kind of ahole behavior was limited to one minority group within the minority party I'd be happy. Truth is that you can find people on both sides that look upon political office as a route to personal "entitlement" rather than as public service.

Yeah, that's it. Liberals are the ones who have a hard time with integrity and personal responsibility.

In a sea of indictments that are coming up against the GOP, its a good thing we have this petty scandal for the media and the lock step GOPers to gravitate towards.

Mcinney's actions may well have been out of line, but don't tell me there's not even the possibility of what she said being true. The race card ridiculous? the gender card ridiculous? When just the other day Tom Delay, one of your fabulously moral Republicans who resigned because he will be going to jail when his case is over, was just recorded saying nobody likes a female know-it-all...

Oh yeah, we're past sexism and racism on Capitol Hill...sure we are.

This is why I posted this issue. I didn't make it other than what it really is... my idiot congresswoman from the 4th District. It never ceases to amaze me that *some* folks will over look what she did and this issue and start the " yeah, but " game over what other politicians did. I DON'T GIVE A GORRAM FLYING FORNICATION!! THAT'S NOT THE POINT! If Tom Delay murdered puppies and ripped federally protected tags off of mattresses , it STILL wouldn't make what Cynthia did any less wrong.

Yes, it IS beyond possibility that what she says happened is true. She's a KNOWN racist herself and has done this sort of crap before! NO ONE is supporting her, and even her own PARTY is running away from her at light speed. You want to give examples of sexism and racism by the Capitol Police? Cynthia admitted to striking the officer and didn't deny the events which took place.

I don't care if she's black OR a woman. She's WRONG! Sorry, but being black and or a woman does not exempt one from acting like a civilized human being ! If she wants to be treated w/ respect, she must EARN it. Just like anyone else.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Uhm, WHO started taking this path away from a specific incident? Could it have been Zero?

My post was specifically responding to somebody within this thread who said that liberals have a hard time taking personal responsibility, whereass, by omission, Republicans must have absolutely no problem with it whatsoever. You Tell me that's not a sheltered reality that person is living in.

So yes, that IS the point of my post. To draw attention to how ridiculous that statement was.

I didn't say she didn't strike the officer. Her official story,(while perfectly capable of being a fabrication) is that he grabbed her inappropriately...I don't even know whether she reacted before even knowing who it was who grabbed her.

Frankly, the whole case is ridiculous. Was anybody harmed? Did this guy really need to press charges? Was it really not motivated by some political agenda?

That said, the old addage 'its not the crime, its the cover up' is something that still concerns me. If truly, she is trumping up these counter charges just to try to get her own ass out of the sling, she is acting way inaproppriately for a person of her position, and should be treated as such non-partisanly.

Is Cynthia Mickiney a known racist? I'm going to abstain from taking your characterization as cannon because she's never given me any such indication from the interviews and conversations I've seen her take part in. If you have a specific article as to that fact, I would find that interesting reading.

Same goes for Tom Delay and Matresses. I mean, I believe it, but I'll withold judgement until I see some hard evidence.

I am glad you could give a rat's ass about what party did this and what party did that. It truly is heartening that there are still people out there that look at the crime and not the button on the lapel. I'll look forward to some of your scathing articles on the Bush wiretapping and the Valerie Plame leak. You've probably got something in the archives about Randy Cunningham. You're right, these aren't partisan issues, and politicians should not be considered above the law.

Well, one thing is possible about this Congresswoman from the ATL - she represents her constituents.

I hear all the time from my Atlantan friends about how often people from there play up race/gender issues to try and get away with crime. If only judges can see right through that type of coy behavior, Rep. McKinney will be serving jail time.
