Georgia's Mckinney....again

I LOVE the link on cnn.com showing how Cynthia McKinney is trying to tell the media what is "permissible" to use. "Is that understood....?" You have to see it to get the joke.

She is just so embarrassing to herself. I cringe when I hear her speak. She is so mean and snotty, but in reality, she acts like a "fool".

Seriously, this woman is out of control.

Yes, Hentob....she is an embarrassing baffoon. I am embarrassed that she hails from our state but she was gerrymandered into it(her spot).....she didn't get it on her own.

Oh my word, she is the biggest idiot in the world!! It's hilarious how she gives us so much material - the media doesn't have to do anything!

If her constituents vote her back in, they are imbeciles!

LOL!

She's an idiot! They got her audio fair and square.

Just answer a question then they won't have to keep asking it. Even celebrities know that.

I think she looks better since her makeover--but her attitude is making her downright ugly.

And is she wearing a pin?

She is one unstable individual.

Was she ever formally charged for hitting the Capitol Officer? I never saw an update on it. The last I heard she had dropped the claims of racism & quietly slunk away after apologizing (hoping to avoid legal action I'm sure!).

Is she going to be up for re-election?

Is she going to be up for re-election?

She was elected in 2004, I believe they serve 2 year terms? If so, no wonder she wants this issue put to rest!

Rep. McKinney files to run for re-election

By SHANNON MCCAFFREY
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ATLANTA -- Amid a swarm of television cameras, U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney arrived at the state Capitol on Monday to file for re-election.

McKinney smiled broadly but didn't comment on her recent scuffle with a U.S. Capitol Police officer.

"Hello, so good to see you," the Democratic congresswoman said as she made her way around the House chamber.

McKinney was one of dozens of candidates filing the required paperwork and fees Monday to run for office. Elected officials and those hoping to unseat them shook hands and hugged friends and supporters. Campaign T-shirts and buttons were everywhere.

Gov. Sonny Perdue was expected to file his qualifying papers in the afternoon.

McKinney flashed her Georgia driver's license at photographers in an apparent jab at the incident in Washington in late March. She allegedly struck a Capitol Hill police officer who stopped her for bypassing a security checkpoint at a House office building. A grand jury is weighing whether to bring criminal charges in the incident.

Along with her paperwork, McKinney submitted a check for $4,863, the filing fee required of candidates running for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Earlier, McKinney's Democratic opponent, DeKalb County Commissioner Hank Johnson, filed his own qualifying papers.

"I think that citizens in the 4th District are tired of constant controversy," Johnson said. "They want effective leadership in the halls of Congress."

Party officials must submit qualifying information on candidates to the Secretary of State's office by May 1.

I don't understand why the people keep voting for her. She should have been arrested for the assault on the police officer in D.C.
