Keep in mind that this is a federal GJ. Even though it's in DC, I've got a little bit of faith.
I hope I'm wrong but I've seen enough evidence over the years to abandon all hope....
"Cynthia McKinney is a racist," Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, said on Fox News Channel's "Fox and Friends," a day after abandoning his reelection bid under a cloud of ethics charges. "She has a long history of racism. Everything is racism with her. This is incredible arrogance that sometimes hits these members of Congress, but especially Cynthia McKinney."
Good for The Hammer!
But she said Wednesday: "Face recognition is the issue .... The pin doesn't have my name on it and it doesn't have my picture on it, and so security should not be based on a pin ... People are focused on my hairdo."
"Something that perhaps the average American just doesn't understand is that there is a heightened sense of a lack of appropriateness being there for members who are elected who happen to be of color," McKinney said, "and until this issue is addressed by the American public in a very substantive way, it won't be the last time."
Meaning the average WHITE American, I presume. Well McKinney, your threats don't work with me. You're no darned better than anybody else. I hope they hang you out to dry.
