Any way we can send McKinney some flowers and show support?
I'd be willing to donate to that..

We need to SHAME the Democrats into supporting one of their own, let them see that WE,the PEOPLE Support her, we don't have to condone any actions we don't agree with, but at the same time, she IS someone *I* WILL stand behind, as I believe this is a setup..

Maybe we can send flowers and demand that Congress DO REAL BUSINESS instead of them turning this into a Political FARCE with some Bill supporting the attack of one of the 14 black Congress folks.

What ever happened to the BLAME GAME and NOT playing it? Or the "Wait for a full investigation" that the right wing pulls all the time.

So the flowers would say three things, 1. WE appreciate the HELL out of you Cynthia, 2)We are behind you all the way and don't condone the actions of this cop who should be fired or sent back to training, 3) Congress RIGHT WINGERS need to DO THE PEOPLE'S BUSINESS and this is NOT IT.

Maybe add That Congress Didn't seem to want to pass any Bills Supporting the GUN LOBBY after CHENEY SHOT A MAN IN THE FACE, so why are they pulling this political game with Cynthia. (If they sign this bill they will be supporting attacking BLACK people and getting awarded for making a MISTAKE, once again, REWARDED FOR A BAD JOB. Instead this cop needs to be FIRED.)

Anybody up for it?

I mean, I'll send flowers if nobody else will, thought some others might want to continue the trend, I love it. The FLOWER is the ultimate symbol of PEACE and LOVE and CANNOT be subverted, even by these evil bastards in power now!

4. It did improve when she
interviewed the head of police but Soledad was very aggressive and wanted Cynthia and her attorney to present their side of the case. Obviously she refused and spoke about the issues she will not stop raising and racial profiling.

Soledad told McKinney it was her program and she was asking the questions. Very rude.

3. I support McKInney but I don't
support smearing the cop anymore than I support smearing her. It disgusts me to hear people on either side, who without the facts, have condemned either McKinney or the cop. Calling for him to be fired is just the other side of the witch hunt.

It's not a bill that you're referring to, it's a resolution, and I saw Mckinney say this morning that she supports it. I agree that it's totally stupid, mean spirited and gratuitous, but she is supporting it. In addition, you're wrong about there only being 14 black Reps in Congress. There are 14 women of color in the Congress and thirty or so men.

5. Yeah this smearing stuff has to STOP
my god, it's not like the REPIG SMEAR ANYONE, no, they Smear EVERYONE to evil ends.

I'm sick of namby pamby liberal NON BIAS, like the animal in the "Restaurant at the End of the Universe" that has be genetically engineered to WANT TO BE EATEN..

Sounds just like "undecided voter" syndrome, like we're all supposed to be RULED by people who WON'T or CAN'T make up their minds, like they are EVER going to get the facts with a Right wing media echo machine..

You REALLY believe you are going to get the whole story?

Liberal FOOLS are the ones KILLING ALL OF US.. first ones up against the walls when the jackboots show up, and of course WE'LL be in FRONT OF THEM due to their FAIRNESS which is going to KILL US.

Yeah, let's be FAIR while these goose steppers walk all over us.

This cop DESERVES to be FIRED. He doesn't have what it takes to Protect anyone if he can't tell the difference between Black people, no matter how many there are. He's a boob and over reacted, or do you believe in a Police State?

Why not wait until the cops KICK YOUR ASS (which has happened to me, and apparently accosting Cynthia), THEN tell me about smearing..

I just love these Lefties eating their own.
