In lawyer speak dosen't an apology equal an admission of guilt?
"I'm sorry I did it"

[eyespysomething]

Oops, too late!

[jw777]

Yeah. Or he's an Uncle Tom who didn't recognize his strong black sistah soldiah with her cornrows out and her Macy Gray hair in.

She needs to apologize to the Policeman she hit.

And the chief of the Capitol Police, whom I understand is a black man.

Racial profiling, eh? I don't think so. It was probably a lot more like this:

FROM YAHOO

WASHINGTON - Rep. Cynthia McKinney, D-Ga., expressed "sincere regret" Thursday for her altercation with a Capitol police officer, and offered an apology to the House.

"There should not have been any physical contact in this incident," McKinney said in brief remarks on the House floor. "I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all and I regret its escalation and I apologize."

McKinney's comments came after the case had been referred to a federal grand jury for possible prosecution.

She had previously insisted she had done nothing wrong, and accused police of "racial profiling." She is African-American and the police officer is white.

[N. Theknow]

Is it a real apology or a "I'm sorry if anyone was offended" apology?

[shield]

It's about time...the grand jury is much more than a shot over the bow...LOL

[NonValueAdded]

There are apologies and then there are apologies ... let's see what she is actually saying beyond regretting getting caught.

[HitmanLV]

To be fair, needs to reconcile her earlier, more aggressive comments, and her current posture of apologizing.

If she still believes she is in the right, why is she apologizing?

If she now believes she is wrong, what changed in the last couple of days to make this racist incident where she was the victim into something she should apologize for?

I don't think a DC grand jury would indict a dem for this kind of incident, though, in any case.

Last night on KFI in Los Angeles, John Kobylt of the famous John and Ken show in Los Angeles said that she looked like a bag lady and a crack whore. I put up a post that had about 3,000 views before it got pulled.

I did not have sex with that policeman. And oral aint sex.

[NavyCanDo]

"right now apologizing "

Like what I tell my 4-year old when I get a reluctant apology from him, "now was that so hard?"

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Cuff her right there on the spot!

[KarinG1]

In order to apologize you must first admit to wrongdoing. As far as I know Princess McKinney has not yet owned up to hitting the cop. Of course, I don't really understand her plight as I am not an African-American, merely a non-hyphenated born in the USA type. If I had done whatever she may or may not have done nothing would have been said. Profiling, that's the real issue here.

[SeaBiscuit]

Insult after injury!

[Constitution Day]

LMAO!

[Huck]

Too late.

[Pistolshot]

Looked like the entire Black Caucus on the House side was behind her. No doubt twisting her arm behind her to apologize before she make them all look like a bunch of asses more than they do for themselves.
This incident has deflected the Dumorats entire agenda from Immigration reform, the war in Iraq, impeachement, etc, to McKinney's race-baiting tactics. The Dumocraps HAVE to get her to shut her mouth so they can get the focus back on the subjects they want, not on themselves.

Indict her. The Dums will give her up to be rid of the problem.
