Oh give me a friggen break!!!
Just whine and cry some more, will ya?When will people stop using the color of their skin to excuse their behavior??? Especially a United States Representative, for God's sake!
From here:
A victim? After slapping a cop??? Great example you are, Ms. McKinney. A fine example to all who now have carte blanche to blame bad behavior on the color of their skin.
Lawyer Says McKinney a Victim in Scuffle
Mar 31 4:08 PM US/Eastern
WASHINGTON
A lawyer for Rep. Cynthia McKinney, the Georgia congresswoman who had an altercation with a Capitol Police officer, says she was "just a victim of being in Congress while black."
McKinney awaited word Friday on whether she would be charged for apparently striking the officer after she entered a House office building this week unrecognized and did not stop when asked.
Ms. McKinney, YOU made the choices. YOU could have stopped when asked to. YOU could have chosen not to slap an officer of the Law. This situation is a product of YOUR OWN ACTIONS. But rather than chalk it up to your own sophmoric arrogance, you have the gaul to blame YOUR bad behavior on the color of your skin? What a slap in the face to all who actually have the maturity to take responsibility for their own actions!
But of course, you do have like minded friends, as well:
McKinney's office says the news conference is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. They say that actor Danny Glover will also be present at the news conference to be held on Howard University's campus in northwest Washington. 11Alive.com will carry the news conference live.
I'm just waiting for Jesse Jackson to show his face as well.
Can someone just send Ms. McKinney back to kindergarten to teach her some manners?

And in another example of Cynthia "The Rules don't apply to me" McKinney's blatant arrogance:
I suppose she'll be blaming the color of her skin for this, too..McKinney Admits Misusing Taxpayer Money
POSTED: 3:40 pm EDT April 3, 2006UPDATED: 3:57 pm EDT April 3, 2006WASHINGTON -- Rep. Cynthia McKinney admits that she broke government rules by spending money to fly a celebrity to Atlanta.Channel 2 Action News has uncovered documents showing McKinney, D-Ga., spent about $1,000 of taxpayer's money to fly singer Isaac Hayes to Georgia to help dedicate a new office in Atlanta.
The money came from a fund members of Congress are supposed to use for office supplies.
Using the money to pay for Hayes' airline ticket and hotel expenses is a violation of strict congressional rules. Those rules state that taxpayer money can only be used for "travel by Members, Members' employees and vendors. A vendor is an employee of a private company that provides maintenance and support for equipment and software..."Watchdog groups call taxpayer-funded celebrity travel a blatant waste of taxpayer money.
