McKinney just apologized on House floor...

[kentuck]

and she would be voting for the bill appreciating the Capitol police.

[tridim]

1. Yea, she's rolling over

Probably a good move, but a bit disappointing. Oh well.

Today is about Bush's high crimes.

[ronnykmarshall]

2. Hopefully this will be the end of it ....

and we can get back to the real news.

You know, the next missing white girl.

[still_one]

9. Not a surprise

two reasons

she probably realizes she is not entirely blameless

and two, she wants to move on with the important issues

[Rosco T.]

21. I don't think she's "Rolling Over"...

.. I think she's taking this off the table because she heard the 'revelation' coming about Libby dropping a dime on Junior.

[xultar]

3. YEA!!! Her elders in the CBC go to her.

[Pirate Smile]

7. Did you see it on C-span? I'm glad. Hopefully now we can move on.

[dogday]

8. Where did you see it at?

If so, it will make the news... I am sure is sorry this whole mess happened....I would be too..But I still think it was overblown..

[Pirate Smile]

13. I didn't see it live but right now MSNBC is showing it. I see the

members of the CBC around her. Good.

[CottonBear]

14. I heard that John Lewis talked to her yesterday. n/t

[Virginia Dare]

4. I think it's a good move....

This wasn't a fight she could win--hopefully she'll rise above it in the end, and so will we all.

[Pirate Smile]

5. Good. Let's hope this goes away now. Today is a Plame day.

Bush OK'ed all the leaks.

We want that to be the focus.

No distractions.

[BlooInBloo]

6. Suckers.

What'd they do to Clinton after HE apologized?

Fools.

[IselaB]

10. I don't care what they do to McKinney

Let's just hope she stops being a distraction and we can shift the focus back to real news. You probably haven't heard, but there's been some bad news lately for some Republicans. I want that bad news to be the news, not McKinney's petty little issues with the CHP.

[CatWoman]

12. LOL

I'm developing a nasty habit of following you around, to see how you can make me belly laugh with your next post.

:hi:


Good point, Bloo.

Excellent point.

[BlooInBloo]

19. I follow you around too....

... You just cover the bases well enough that there's little for me to add...

:)

you are not correct

right now bush and cheney have been DIRECTLY implicated in the plane affair, and at the very least, caught in a lie about it

If she recognizes that she may be partly wrong, and does NOT admit it, then we are no better than the repukes, and I am sorry, she has shown just the opposite

Forget about Clinton, HE IS NOT IN THE GOVERNMENT ANYMORE

Incidently, clinton lied, McKinney NEVER LIED. Clinton was told to stop screwing around with the intern, and he ignored his advisors. Clinton may not be as bad as these criminals, but he is also an arragont SOB. The only thing he had to tell the press is it is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, but instead he choose to lie.

20. Democrats won more five seats in the House in 1998

He must have done something right.

[Norquist Nemesis]

11. I wouldn't call it rolling over; stepping aside and letting Bush

have the limelight is a good move. :evilgrin:

[Vinnie From Indy]

15. Smart move on her part.

I have no doubt that other members, including the CBC, explained to her that she was not helping anyone by appearing on several shows and keeping this thing alive.

[Carni]

17. Even my ten year old said yesterday "Why do they keep talking about this?"

Hate to say it I don't know who did what but this crap certainly has dominated the so called news for the last two days.

I don't think it was racial profiling...I think it was anti-bushit profiling and it certainly would have behooved her to take that stance right from the get go (can't imagine why she didn't)

She was a target because of her very public disdain for bush IMO

[Ian David]

18. I just called Rep. Stephen Lynch to suggest a resolution...

My resolution would be to commend Dick Cheney's Secret Service detail for keeping local authorities from interviewing him for 16 hours after getting drunk and shooting a man in the face.

I suggest we all call our various Congress-critters and do the same:

Congress:

202-224-3121
888-818-6641
800-426-8073
