So McKinney goes into a building that is not her office building and is upset that she was not recognized by security. With that new hair-do of hers and her change in size, who would notice her? What a nut! And her lawyer is tossing the race bait!

Congressmen like JC Watts never had complaints like this. In fact, I’ve never heard many other members of the Congressional Black Caucus running to cameras with similar complaints over the years. If it happens to Blacks, why is this the first time it has resulted in this kind of confrontation and why don’t we hear plenty of other Black congresspeople saying the same already?

And McKinney is in interesting company. Danny Glover was part of the group of nuts that visited Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. And Howard University is where Kamau Kambon made his “exterminate white people off the face of the planet” statement.

The Political Pit Bull has found that Harry Belafonte is still talking trash. This time at the TransAfrica Forum, which Belafonte is President of and Danny Glover is the Chairman. The group is giving Belafonte an award. How convenient, give their own President an award, get on C-SPAN to talk trash and maybe get some more donations from Bush Hating Leftists. Then what, spread the Bush hate to Africa along with some aid packages?

McKinney has delayed her news conference until 5:30PM. So she can say what she wants and get it into the 6PM national news cycle before anyone else can comment. And it allows her statement to carry over the weekend as well.

update 3/31/2006 8:54PM: McKinney FINALLY had her news conference and basically cried about how she was abused because she’s a Black woman. Sorry McKinney, it’s 2006, and as they say down here in the South, that dog won’t hunt!

And she has the nerve to be trying to file a complain against the cop.

You can see just McKinney’s statement on video over at Expose the Left.

You can watch the entire news conference which includes McKinney’s statement at Atlanta’s 11 Alive news.

Later in the news conference, McKinney answered a couple of questions herself. One question was about McKinney not wearing her pin. She responded to the question by saying:

I do wear the pin when I remember to wear the pin.
…
The issue is face recognition and face recognition is the issue.

So McKinney feels that every cop in every single building used by a Congressperson should know HER FACE. Of course if she wore HER PIN it would have made their job easier! Hey Mckinney, maybe that’s why they gave you the pin in the first place.

There has been talk about other Congresspeople not wearing their pins at times. But we have to keep in mind, that McKinney was not entering the building that HER OFFICE IS IN. So it is understandable that when she goes into a different building that the cops are not used to seeing her with her “new hair-do”. (I mean lets be honest it’s scary!)

At the end of the news conference, both Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte spoke. I guess they went straight from their previous made up awards ceremony, where Belafonte repeated how he hates Bush and loves socialist nations, to running to the defense of a fellow nut case.

Belafonte admitted he does not know the details of the case. But he tossed around race-bait for the crowd. He basically said he does not have a clue about what happened with McKinney, but hey there is racism in DC. He also cried about her being “abused in the past”. So he knows nothing, but is still trying to make a defense for her. Saying nothing about the fact cops have a hard job, especially after 9/11. He only said words that will probably be said by McKinney’s defense team. This was nothing more than lame pandering for public support by crying “racism”.

Belafonte ended by saying:

We stand in solidarity and support with her personally.

Danny Glover talked about how McKinney’s stance on some issues have put her in political and “physical danger”. (I’m not sure when she’s had this supposed “physical danger”.) Mr. Glover feels that since McKinney has stood alone running her mouth about some matters, that means he should stand with her. He mentioned he was not there to judge the merits of the case.

So it was one big Friday Nutty Bush Hating Racism Crying Bash.

update 4/1/2006 11:05AM: Shay at Booker Rising is so surprised by McKinney’s makeover, that she thought the media altered an image of McKinney.

It would be nice if this was all just an April Fools Joke, but unfortunately McKinney’s race-bait is a daily reality.

What is wrong with this picture? I’ll explain it to you. This is what I saw at a supermarket in my area just last night. I was so stunned I had to take a picture.

The shorter of the 2 people standing at the Georgia State Lottery game machine is the mother and the taller person wearing a sports jersey is her daughter. (I’m assuming the mother daughter relationship given other interaction I noticed between them when we passed in another part of the market earlier.) It was visibly obvious that the daughter WELL UNDER AGE 18. Together they are both playing the State run lottery machine. They were taking turns making picks. The State of GA has outlawed private businesses from running gaming machines that pay out money and even banned the machines that did not pay money. The state banned any video game that was a form of “match game”. But the Great State of Georgia in all it’s government hypocrisy is A-OK with a state run lottery and state run lottery machines. With the private machines there were always efforts made to keep kids off the machines. But with the state run machine, we see mother and daughter both happily playing together.

Personally, I feel if a state is going to allow gambling then the state should not be the entity controlling the gambling. It makes all taxpayers a party to endorsing the sin, because tax dollars are used to get the state run gambling started. And I don’t care about the “it goes to education” talk. Raise the money via other means. Don’t make me party to state run games that prey on the desperate and stupid.

I’ve watched several people in my family be duped by these government sponsored forms of gambling. It’s bad enough when a private party does it, but to see members of my family running around daily throwing away money on a statistically false hope that is run by the government seems criminal to me. If a private party were to run any such games it would be a crime. Companies that setup investment schemes where most everyone loses are shut down. But the state enjoys making money off false hope! People like Neal Boortz are right to call this a stupid tax.

Our state government has given its self a monopoly on a very profitable and dirty business.

So now the state of GA is running gambling games that attract entire families to play, children included. I know the family that prays together stays together, but what about the family that gambles together?

I just think this whole mess is sick!

OK, so if you’ve been keeping up I’m hooked to watching a new trash TV show named Unanimous (aka Unan1mous ). A bunch of people setting in an upscale underground bunker, trying to decide who to give a bunch of money to. The interaction involving some of the Conservative Christians on this show is interesting. Of course given Kelly’s heated exchange with Jameson last week, everyone was wondering what would happen next.

Well this week nothing happened with them. Kelly was obviously able to effectively apply some suggestions that Paul gave to the Ephesians.

She had her spat and moved on. When Jameson said something she felt was the truth, she would openly agree with him. However, Jameson is still angry. He offers no response to anything Kelly says to the group, he basically does his best to ignore her. And whenever he gets an opportunity to speak “in private” to “the camera” he’s only talking about how he wants Kelly to be gone. He’s still got a big chip on his shoulder and he can’t let it go. The fact someone would not bend and stood on the fact that his gay lifestyle is a sin is tearing him apart. (This makes me think of how gays often run from the truth.)

The group did find that they have a big time liar in their mist, but they don’t know who it is yet. Jonathan the “womanizer” is telling them more lies than they even know. Everyone including Jonathan agreed to give the money to Steve. Steve’s a quiet Conservative Christian with a wife and kids. Well once the votes came in, it turned out somebody did not vote for Steve. They don’t know who, but it was Jonathan. The same guy who is lying to them about having testicular cancer. Jonathan is a rat and he’s trying to use any means possible to get the money.

I guess some people would say “hey it’s a game” and consider Jonathan’s actions to be part of the game. Steve had an opportunity to speak with his wife and told her to tell the kids to keep their integrity, even if they see their father do something unethical on the show, as part of the game. This presents an interesting issue. Because Jonathan is not a Christian. He has no higher calling. But Steve is a Christian and his actions are a testimony of the faith. So if Steve makes the choice to tell a lie, he’s placed himself on the same level as Jonathan. This might all be a game, but if Steve crosses the line of good ethics in his public dealings, he’s gone into the realm of showing a Christian to be deceitful in the eyes of the world. This would not be a good thing.

Christians must keep in mind:

If Steve starts telling lies (which he has said he might do) he will have compromised himself for the sake of money. He will place himself into the same snare that Jonathan is already in, but Jonathan does not know the Lord and makes no claims to be a Christian.

Steve telling a lie would be bad for the ministry of the gospel, given plenty of people who don’t know the Lord are watching. Not to mention, once you start telling lies it gets easy to do and he may have issues with it even after the game is over, especially if he wins. If lies help Steve to win, then Steve will feel that deceit is a good way for him to win rewards for himself. This would be bad for him and his family. The money he hopes can help him and his family might be a burden, if he takes it while compromising himself. He would do best with the money if he wins with his integrity in tact.

Because of the lies being told, Kelly is threatening to leave. I can’t say I blame her. Steve is trying to convince her to stay, because he knows she will vote for him to get the money. Kelly knows what her personal tolerance level is. And it is obvious that lies really get under her skin. If she stays and has to endure more lies, she might fall into some bad actions herself. If Kelly stays, she’s going to need to be very careful.

You can read this story about a dirty drug infested neighborhood in Atlanta, where the community is taking back their streets via cleaning them up. There is also a video report at this link, courtesy of Atlanta’s CBS 46 news.

The effort is funded by the US Department of Justice (the primary funder), the City of Atlanta and Spelman College. Community residents and students from Spelman College did the clean-up work.

Now I’m just wondering which one of our Black representatives in Congress will thank the Bush Administration for funding this effort to clean up a Black community? I’m sure Bush will not be getting any thanks from Cynthia (punch a cop) McKinney!

I think it’s good that this neighborhood is working to clean things up. And although a Federal hand out was used, it was used in a way that requires the people in the community to roll up their own sleeves to improve their community.

A CA Superior Court Judge has decided that California’s Unruh Civil Rights Act trumps freedom of religion and assembly. In short, a couple of lesbians were kicked out of a private Christian school. Because the school felt their sinful activity was causing a disruptive environment. In response, like typical crying Liberals their parents ran to court claiming that their kids’ “civil rights” were violated. And since the administrators had to discuss a punishment for the sinful actions, the parents’ lawyers also claimed that the girls’ “privacy” was violated. They claimed that the private Christian school is a business and therefore subject to CA’s newest “civil rights” law that offers coverage for gays. The judge agreed.

If this school were to lose then all Christian schools in the state of CA would have to allow gays to violate their rules. This would allow a debased lifestyle into the Christian schools.

On top of that, since this new “civil rights” law also offers coverage for disabilities, it could have other far reaching effects. For example, any parent that wants their child to go to a certain private school would be able to leverage this case. Even if the child is not academically eligible for that school. Imagine if a child takes the entrance exams for a private school and fails? The child’s parents could claim that their child has a learning “disability” and BAM, the school would have to admit them or face legal action! This would result in private schools in CA having all the issues that public schools have, because they would not be able to filter out children that might hold up the school’s educational process. The only filter they would be able to use is a higher tuition fee. Meaning the richest families in CA might be able to ensure their children went to a good private school. But even with the rich, a kid who is not very bright could slip in, so long as they have rich parents.

For these reasons, CA’s “civil rights” law should not apply to any private school. (It probably should not apply to public schools either, given you can’t have a separate class for smart kids, because you would discriminate against those with learning disabilities by segregating them from everyone else.) These institutions need to have the ability to filter out children based on the criteria of their choosing. Otherwise, they will be no better than public schools. Not to mention that it has always been understood that private schools were allowed to discriminate so long as they don’t violate FEDERAL Civil Rights laws. And Christian private schools should always be allowed to discriminate against sin.

Hat tip to Religion Clause.

This should be a big boost to the Democratic challenger in her district, Hank Johnson.

Lock her up! And this is not the first time I’ve recommended that she be arrested!

Expose the Left mentions that Drudge said she will be arrested after Congress adjourns for the day.

update 3/29/2006 6:52PM: WSB TV in Atlanta has a video report, that confirms multiple sources reporting an incident occurred. They also mention that McKinney has had SEVERAL encounters with officers in DC.

update 3/29/2006 11:00PM: McKinney’s office has issued a statement. Just in time for the 11 o’clock evening news shows. It has no true apology for her actions. She simply expresses “regret” by saying: “I deeply regret that the incident occurred.”

What a lame response. She punched an officer. Instead of offering an apology she’s trying to make it seem like it’s all the officer’s fault, but she admits she was not wearing her Congressional pin. I can’t fault an officer for not knowing over 500 different people by facial recognition alone. McKinney should have apologized and said she would show officers more respect in the future.

Reports mention that the officer is still planning to press charges and with a response like that from McKinney I don’t blame him.

update 3/30/2006 12:34AM: The Hill reports:

You know, when you have a history of giving cops a hard time, they never have much incentive to treat you nice. I think the cop made an honest mistake and McKinney over-reacted. As usual, jumping around expecting everyone to treat her like a queen. Crying that it’s all about race. She is the same big mouthed crybaby, even at age 51.

Maybe the next time President Bush is in New Orleans, he should complain that he’s tired of having to have his appearance validated by Black people? Oh, would it be a racist statement then? But McKinney will never admit her own racist ways. And if she was a true supporter of the cops, they would befriend her and know who she is. I’m so sick of this racist liar being in Congress. There were 2 years of peace with Majette in her place. I just hope Hank Johnson or somebody else beats her this time!

Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. is so Liberal, I wish Michael Steele had run for Governor instead of him!

Allowing babies to be killed and experimented on. That’s some “belief system” you’ve got there governor. Unfortunately it’s not the system of the God that I believe in.

The border issue is heating up Texas politics and it is even causing some Democrats to cross party lines, to support Republicans that want to do something about it.

Remember Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West? His deputies had a standoff with people dressed in Mexican military uniforms. Sheriff West is a Democrat, but he knows this issue trumps party alliances.

Republicans could really make this into their new National Security concern if they play it right. At least that’s how many Republicans in Texas are playing it. And they are making the right play. When will America’s Republican President do the same?

My fellow Conservative bloggers are fuming today. Because during some of the protests in favor of illegal immigration the US flag is being disrespected. I’ve mentioned before that I see Mexicans in this country all the time that are not expressing any desire at all to be loyal to this nation, but rather express loyalty to Mexico.

Check out some of the posts from my fellow Conservatives:

• La Shawn Barber covers how these folks should be kicked out and have some nerve to protest in the open. If La Shawn becomes President I want to be the head of Homeland Security, so I can ensure we round them up and toss them out !
• Michelle Malkin, covers how they are often disrespecting the US flag. Even one who respectfully holds a US flag mentions her heart is with the “Mexican flag”, but she holds the US flag because she is here. Anyone with their heart in Mexico is not going to be a really loyal American. But for even holding a US flag she was denounced by others.

  Michelle also covers how Americans are doing the hardest jobs in America, like coal mining!

• Heidi at Euphoric Reality did a little investigative work and found that the kids disrespecting the flag at one school actually came over from another area school. The school administrators were AFRAID TO PUT THE FLAG RIGHTSIDE UP AFTER PROTESTORS TURNED IT UPSIDE DOWN BECAUSE IT MIGHT CAUSE A RIOT!!! Can you say “mob rule”?
• Ian at Expose the Left is exposing how lunatics that support the illegals want them to get more guaranteed free health care. (And he’s not talking about critical emergency care either, but elective and non-critical care too!)
  The pro-illegal nut even asked if Bill O’Reilly had ever seen a Latino with a “Will work for food” sign. I wonder if that Leftist has ever seen a Day Laborer site?
• Greg Tinti at The Political Pit Bull covers one of the heroes in this fight, Congressman Tom Tancredo. And his efforts to stop amnesty programs. Greg also covers Ted (I lost her in the lake) Kennedy trying to act as if enforcement of immigration laws and closing the border to illegals is a bad idea. The Drunken Senator from MA tries to compare illegals to Blacks, which I take personal offense to. We know that although the ancestors of Blacks got here via some nasty methods, it was LEGAL. For Kennedy to compare the efforts of Blacks for Civil Rights to that of law breakers is very insulting! The illegals lower wages for workers including Blacks. Illegals fill the labor pool with workers that make it harder for others including Blacks to find a job. Americans had no problem working at local fast food restaurants just 2 years ago, but the Latinos who were protesting in Georgia last Friday are working there now. I know it has nothing to do with who will or won’t do the jobs. Americans were doing them. But people like Kennedy are making it harder for the same “American worker” he claims to protect!

The actions of the illegals and their sympathizers have effectively turned illegal immigration into a true INVASION.

Guaranteed checks, the ability to sit at a job while doing terrible work or no work at all, without ever being able to be fired is a pretty good deal for a lazy bum, that does not wish to compete to keep their job. All you have to do is fool enough people during the interview process and you’re in for life! (Or make a good show while a contractor, before getting a full time offer.) That’s what youth in France are rioting to protect. Now even the teenagers are taking part in the riots. Really France should not have set the limit for firing people at age 26. It should have been done across the board.

With the little nuts rioting, some people are speaking up.

Check out this video at Expose the Left of a former Frenchman who is now an American. He says it straight. These kids are lazy socialists.

This is the reason Unions in America are a problem. They attempt to make it very hard to fire people here in the USA. This is why school systems can’t get rid of the teachers who do a poor job.

update 3/29/2006 5:49PM: Gateway Pundit has pictures of the rioters beating women in the streets! I guess I should have called them Young French Thugs.
