NO EXCEPTIONS - NOT EVEN FOR CONGRESS (McKinney bash-a-thon)
NY POST ^ | April 10, 2006 | EDIYTORIALS

Posted on 04/10/2006 6:25:07 AM PDT by Liz

**** The race-baiting and constant complaining of Rep. Cynthia McKinney is a disgrace. Everyone is tired of hearing race used as an excuse for not following the rules. The gall of that woman, who thinks she is above the rules, to strike a police officer assigned to protect our Capitol, is an affront to every American. Greeley, Pa.

****Her notorious, arrogant behavior finally turned physical against a Capitol Hill police officer. No one is above the law, regardless of the rhetoric. Flushing

****This bad behavior spotlights a problem: It seems that the police are expected to recognize the 500-plus representatives and senators ...... There should be no exceptions, and everyone should be properly screened. Allowing arrogance and pride to rule is a recipe for disaster. Manhattan

**** More than once, McKinney has used her skin color in defense of her outrageous behavior. Those who protest her views or actions she calls racists. But it is she who has proven herself a racist, and her bias blinds her to the fact that a person of any shade can be racist. Scarsdale

****Maybe McKinney doesn't wear her Member of Congress ID pin because she doesn't want to appear in any way associated with the United States - a country that is moving away from her outdated, leftist ideology. The police officer who challenged McKinney's presence in the House Office Building "should have known" that McKinney was "somebody" because she herself said so. We all know her better now. Vallejo, Calif.

New Yorkers and Californians are echoing what we Georgians know.

I am delighted to see Americans across the country speaking out against McKinney.

Sorry. McKinney doesn't give a d@mn. She is safe in her district and she represents Commie Kleptocrats from Africa, the Caribbean and South America, not Americans.
The only way this could hurt would be if she actually went to jail and couldn't hold or run for office. And, like Marion Barry, she'd be re-elected when she got out.

You might be right that McKinney will never suffer repercussions for her insane actions...but I'm not sure.

Decent DeKalb county residents will cross over and outweigh those DeKalb country residents who have the OJ Simpson mentality.

At least we can do this.

Be nice. But you'd need another black Demoncrat who was just as bad (like Denise Majette) to run against her. Then you'd have to figure out how to keep him (Denise was bought out, ya know...).

At least he wouldn't be insane, though. Kinda like the image McKinney is creating for the Demoncrats right now, too.

Why are the white DeKalb county residents rolling over and playing dead? Why cannot a white DeKalb county resident run?

" It seems that the police are expected to recognize the 500-plus representatives and senators ...... There should be no exceptions, and everyone should be properly screened."

Agree 100%.

If I know my Atlanta demographics, that district is mostly black. The whites in that area are likely professors and staff at Emory (extremely liberal...), or something similar.

Exactly,
McKinney is a joke throughout the state. How she's elected, I'll never understand.

The OJ Simpson mentality...stick with "your own" regardless. Pure and simple racism.

Oy.

Does anyone know how long the Grand Jury is expected to decide on McNutty's case?

I don't know.

I do know that I've complained to my boss before about 'racist' comments made in my presence. He was stunned saying "folks were just teasing". Then I asked,
"And what would have happened to ME if I'd said the same thing to them?" He got the point and talked to the culprits.
