" Members of Congress wear identifying lapel pins and routinely are waved into buildings without undergoing security checks. The officer apparently did not recognize McKinney, she said in a statement."

Parsed that statement...She did not have the pin on her person.

I find the timing of the arrest warrant interesting. If this were a 'knee jerk' reaction by capital police, they would have issued the warrant shortly after it happened, and changed/kept the warrant after the surveillance tapes were played. Instead, the warrant comes a day later.. seems to me, this wasn't an accidental bump as Ms McKinney suggested. That is a lot of time to review the surveillance tapes and make a decision.. Buh Bye McKinney...

Actually, she changed her hairdo. It is no longer the braided look that we are used to seeing. Instead -- to quote Neal Boortz -- her hair looks like "and explosion in a Brillo pad factory".

There was a news report yesterday that mentioned that the police knew she did "not like to wear the pin." And that there were actually picyures of her posted in the station because of this. A spoiled, stupid, troublemaker.

To parse further: "We don't have to follow the laws that we create for the rest of you peons. We can be trusted but the great unwashed taxpayer cannot"
