McKinney
Representative Cynthia McKinney (Lunatic - GA) recently got in a spot of trouble for assaulting a Capitol Police Officer. She had allegedly hit the officer with her cell phone after he attempted to stop her and get her identification. Naturally McKinney took full responsibility for her actions and apologized.
Oh. Wait. For a second there I was confusing her with an actual human being. No, instead she chose to - surprise surprise, play the race card.
Or maybe it had something to do with the fact that you refused to wear your identification lapel pin, and the officer in question simply didn't recognize you. Now, I know it must be a brutal blow to your ego to think that there's someone out there that does not recognize you, Cynthia McKinney - black, female, progressive Congresswoman - after all, somone who could forget the face of someone as clearly insane as you?

“Let me be clear, this whole incident was instigated by the inappropriate touching and stopping of me – a female, black, progressive congresswoman,” she said. “I am certain that after a full review of the facts, I will be exonerated.”Yes, Cynthia, the officer must have said to himself, "There goes that black, female, progressive Congresswoman. I'm going to go touch her inappropriately because, well, I just don't like them black, female, progressive Congresswomen."

“We know there were numerous warnings of the events to come on September 11... Those engaged in unusual stock trades immediately before September 11 knew enough to make millions of dollars from United and American airlines, certain insurance and brokerage firms' stocks. What did the Administration know, and when did it know it about the events of September 11? Who else knew and why did they not warn the innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered?”Well, at least she's a fit represenative for the district representing my alma mater.
