McKinney incident referred to U.S. Attorney's Office

The Associated Press - ATLANTA

Capitol Hill police have referred a scuffle between one of their officers and U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, D.C., a spokesman for the office said Monday.

"We are working with Capitol Hill police to fully understand and appreciate the incident," principal assistant U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. "Pending review, it is inappropriate for us to comment any further at this time."

Phillips would not say whether a warrant was issued for McKinney's arrest.

McKinney spokesman Coz Carson on Monday also acknowledged the investigation.

"We're aware that the wheels are turning in Washington," Carson said. "We have no control over what they decide to do. We will make the appropriate statement and take the appropriate action once we know where they're going."

At a press conference Monday morning, black clergy and lawmakers came the defense of the firebrand congresswoman. McKinney smiled as her supporters heaped praise on her leadership and her new look _ her trademark cornrows replaced earlier this year by a curly brown afro.

Today on CNN, McKinney said this was all about her hair! Yea, her hair hit this police officer!!! Give me a break!!! Last week she said it was all about her color and she should be recognized!!!!! She's being Recognized Now.

She probably thinks that us whitey's think "THEY" all look alike" (No comment)

SHE has to understand, "do the crime, do the time"....

This is all about her and she and me and my hair, my color, my people, and more crap than the NAACP. WHERE is Jesse? Why don't he help this poor woman and tell HER to shut up!

then we would get rid of Hillary - she did, after all, club Clinton after he gave her the office that Al Gore had wanted.

That only happened to me once, Mary, when I had a bad case of the flu. It was terribly frightening to me when it happened and I couldn't catch my breath sometimes. I'm so glad you're feeling better today. You be careful, as I know you are, especially in crowds where people are around and you could catch something. That's the last thing you need.

Did you see her last night on FOX? The commentator kept trying to ask her a question about what happened and she kept talking about something else. She never stopped talking. OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH. What an arrogant and annoying person she is.

She did the same thing on Fox this morning........like an outboard motor, she just kept right on talking, just like he wasn't saying a word.

She had her talking points and she wasn't going to be deterred!

Good to see you around, Mary. :-)

Someone should tell that crazy b!tch this is not about her. This is about life and death and the brave souls who sacrificed their lives to keep us all safe. And if I made the decisions on the CH Police Force, I'd throw the book at her.

Sorry if I sounded like a jerk with that last post. That was just the third or fourth time I got chastised for that pic. I thought SJL held a patent on unchanged hairdo (somewhat cornrow) of the decade. : )
