Lets SEE, 24-7 about McKinney or HLS Brian Doyle..
Don't you think a story about a Pedifile in HLS is more serious than a Congressman not being recognized and grabbed by police....my goodness. This is truly a insane.
Having this on 24-7 is discusting. We have so many more serious issues.

1. Thank you. How many people have been arrested at protests for pelting
police officers? I'm not saying it's right to hit a police officer as a matter of fact I think it's dead wrong. I'm not defending Mckinney for being an ass, but its just not a big story. Period.

2. You got my point MSgt
This is McKinneys issue, and it is not like she killed the officer or tried to kill him. This incident does not require all the attention it is getting. The fact is that she is a Dem Congresswomen, and it makes news. I don't know what happened, and she shouldn't have hit the policeman, but let them handle it. Cripes. She prolly likes the attention, but I sure the hell don't

3. I agree but it sure was a big story

at DU.

IMO, we need to use this as an opportunity to stay neutral until we hear the facts.

Now the CongressLady rates more airtime than a Homeland Security pervert and a Mafia Wanta Be De Lay.

A Shame, a real shame.

4. I think the fact that Bu$h lied us into a damn WAR
is more relevant than BOTH stories. Aren't our troops still dying over in Iraq? And arent we (they) getting ready to bomb (quite possibly with bunker busting nukes) Iran? This country spends all its time focusing on the tabloid stories and completely ignoring the important issues. It sickens me.

6. REAL News....Thanks!
Yep, they are not talking about that...bombing Iran..as far as we know it could have happened already and we are viewing a congresswomen interaction with DC Security....where is sanity.

7. I heard today that the bombing or Iran was "imminent."
I'm SURE they'll do it. Absolutely sure.
