Disrespectful Cynthia McKinney Punches a Cop. He’s Pressing Charges!

by @ 6:38 pm. Filed under Nuts on Parade

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

McKinney Allegedly Punches Cop

According to sources on Capitol Hill, U.S. Representative Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) punched a Capitol police officer on Wednesday afternoon after he mistakenly pursued her for failing to pass through a metal detector.

The officer called out, ?Ma?am, Ma?am,? and walked after her in an attempt to stop her. When he caught McKinney, he grabbed her by the arm.

Witnesses say McKinney pulled her arm away, and with her cell phone in hand, punched the officer in the chest.

According to the Drudge Report, the entire incident is on tape.

Drudge continues, “The cop is pressing charges, and the USCP (United States Capitol Police) are waiting until Congress adjurns to arrest her, a source claims.”

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.

The Hill reports:

McKinney in fracas with officer

A U.S. Capitol Police officer is considering filing assault charges against Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) following an altercation yesterday in which she allegedly hit him after he asked to see identification, according to a source familiar with the incident.

The incident occurred at approximately 8:50 yesterday morning at the New Jersey Avenue and C Street entrance to the Longworth Building. As McKinney was entering the building, the officer stopped her and asked for identification. McKinney allegedly hit him before identifying herself as a member of Congress and walking away, the source said.

Capitol Hill publication Hotline reported a witness?s account on its blog. According to the blog, the witness recounted that the officer pursued McKinney after she failed to pass through the metal detector. As the officer took McKinney by the arm, she swung around and punched him in the chest while still holding on to her cell phone.

The incident is likely to have been caught on videotape, since all Capitol Hill entrances are monitored by cameras.

Republicans wasted no time pouncing on the events. National Republican Congressional Committee spokesman Carl Forti tied the altercation to Democrats? unveiling of their security agenda yesterday.

?Today?s ironic one-two punch from national Democrats trying to look tough on security finds Cynthia McKinney attacking a member of the law-enforcement community,? he said. ?When we said Democrats were all talk and no action on security, we did not mean to provoke them to take matters into their own cell-phone-clutching hands.?

First elected in 1992, McKinney, 51, has a history of lashing out at government security guards:

? In 1993, after she complained about being stopped by security guards, Capitol Police posted a photo of her on an office wall so that officers could remember who she was.

? In 1995, McKinney reportedly contacted the sergeant at arms after a white Capitol Police officer asked her to consent to a security check.

? In 1996 and 1998, she complained that White House security officials failed to recognize her and did not give her the same treatment as other members of Congress, at one time mistaking her 23-year-old white aide for the congresswoman.

?I am absolutely sick and tired of having to have my appearance at the White House validated by white people,? she said at the time.

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!

Liberal Republican Maryland Governor Robert Ehrlich Gives Baby Experimentation 2 Thumbs Up!

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

Md. to Fund Stem-Cell Research

Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. said that he will sign legislation sent to him this afternoon by the House of Delegates that will make Maryland one of the first states in the nation to fund stem-cell research.

With Ehrlich’s signature, the state will offer up to $15 million in grants next year to university and private-sector researchers seeking treatments for debilitating conditions through work on stem cells, including those derived from embryos.

The legislation was opposed by most Republicans in both chambers, but Ehrlich said he feels comfortable signing it given his record supporting abortion rights.

“I have my views, and those views are part of my record, part of my belief system,” he said.

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.

Democratic Hudspeth County, Texas Sheriff Arvin West Endorses a Republican in Effort to End Illegal Immigration

by @ 6:13 pm. Filed under Illegal Aliens

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.

Immigration a hot topic for Texas Republicans


Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West, a Democrat who battles traffic in drugs and human beings in his remote swath of West Texas, even endorsed a GOP candidate running more than 600 miles away for a Houston Senate seat.

“I’ll endorse anybody who’s going to help us on this issue,” West said.

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?

Once More for the Record, Many of Them Don’t Want to be Loyal Americans!

by @ 4:28 pm. Filed under Illegal Aliens

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:

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

Young French Bums Take to the Streets

by @ 3:40 pm. Filed under Nuts on Parade

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.
