1. She got herself.
This is one of the most embarrassing things she has done. This is why we lose. There IS and terrible problem in this country with racial profiling, but this is NOT and example of it. I watched her yesterday in utter disbelief. Is she getting paid by the republicans to make democrats look bad. I don't know, but it is one of the most politically tone deaf stunts I've ever seen!

3. I have a love-hate relationship....
....with Cynthia Mckinney. Yes she is a loose cannon sometimes but she also shakes things up and I'm all for that. I have heard that Capital Police Officers have been given her picture in the past and have been told to memorize her face and told to quit stopping her so much. I have no doubt this story has more to it than we are seeing.

5. It still dosen't matter
The fact of the matter is that there are 535 comgressmen and women that walk past those capitol hill gates each day and that's not counting people who work for Congress and the staff and aides that work for the congressmen there, the CHP can't possibly remenber every person that goes through those gates wearing a suit or dress.

Hank Johnson is running againist McKinney in the primary, support him.

6. Why not?
Edited on Tue Apr-18-06 09:02 AM by Lurking_Argyle
these are supposed to be law enforcement professionals whose sole jurisdiction is the Capitol building (and the members of Congress) and immediate vicinity. There are high school principals who know every student and staff member by name, a that can be up to and greater than 1000 individuals. Are you suggesting that these law enforcement professionals are not as capable as HS principals?

You have more important worries, like making sure that theocratic neo-con freak Rick Santorum doesn't get re-elected.

8. Obviously this tiny personal issue is more important than the fact that
She created legislation in Congress (TRUTH) that would require multinational corporations to report on labor conditions of people they hire overseas, one of the few congressmen in that building that stands up for things that matter.
