THE SITUATION ROOM with Wolf Blitzer and Cynthia McKinney (smoking gun charges of racial profiling)
CNN ^ | Aired April 3, 2006 - 17:00 ET | Show Transcripts

Posted on 04/05/2006 5:11:56 AM PDT by Clint N. Suhks

BLITZER: Well, I guess the basic question, Congresswoman, is, if they asked you to stop and identify yourself and go through the metal detector, what was the big deal? Why not do that?

MCKINNEY: Well, you know, that goes to the heart of the press conference that we had today. …The bottom line on this is that it doesn't matter if you're in the United States Capitol or the Georgia Capitol, the issue is racial profiling.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

BLITZER: …Congresswoman McKinney, did you strike one of those Capitol Police officers during this incident on Capitol Hill?

MCKINNEY: … inside the Capitol Hill Police Department there are problems inside with the treatment of -- or the respect for diversity, let me say.

BLITZER: …This is an extremely serious charge you're making, Congresswoman.

MCKINNEY: Well, I haven't made a charge. I just asked you to do a little bit of research. (BS, BS, BS! :My emphasis)

BLITZER: No, no, no, but...

MCKINNEY: And...

BLITZER: ... you were talking earlier about racial profiling, and that there was racism involved in stopping you for questioning because you weren't wearing your congressional pin.

MCKINNEY: Now, Wolf, you know I didn't say that, so, don't twist my words.

BLITZER: Well, tell us what you said.

MCKINNEY: Don't even begin to twist my words.

BLITZER: Tell us what you said.

MCKINNEY: And whatever it is that I said is already on the tape. So, you can replay the tape.

Now, I think it's probably a good time now for you to bring in my attorneys.

She needs her attorneys to talk to a sympathetic propagandist? Sounds like we're going to have a good time getting to see her behind bars.

Should I start the Cynthia McKinney Incarceration Watch contest? Who can guess closest to the date when she gets put where she belongs without going over?

Get ready for this year's Halloween fad: "Cynthia McKinney Fright Wigs" and "Scary Eyes" masks.

The stylist who gave her that "look" should have his/her license revoked.

Since the late 70's I have been wondering how these racial hucksters and assorted other liberals can CONSATANTLY state or imply such "serious charges" and NEVER be called on it.

Wonder what suddenly inspired Blitzer?

"the issue is racial profiling"

LOL...her entire news conference Monday was this theme which she repeated on air to Blitzer.

And this morning she's back on CNN and Fox trying to rehabilitate herself...it's pathetic because she's already on the record.

So, Ms McKinney blamed the incident on race. What a surprise! Must be so libertating to be able to blame everything negative that ever happens to you in life on your race. I would think that perpetual chip on her shoulder would get awfully heavy and uncomfortable after awhile.

IF she is tried it will be in Washington, DC with an all black jury. Want to guess the outcome?

Saddest part is that she included school children last Friday in her press conference...guess she wants the next generation to blame everything on race too.

OK...I'll play.

I think the arrest will be as soon as this Monday 4/10/06. Charges dropped Friday 4/14/06.

Why was she not arrested when she hit the officer? I would have been.

"Liberalism is a mental disease!"

"Racial profiling", LMAO! If democrats were smart, they'ed get rid of her to shut her up. That's quite a line up the democrat party has.
Now seriously, how can anyone think we will loose seats in Nov? Our lunatics are still better than their lunatics.

My 9th grader went to DC on a class trip back in February. Before they left, the (all-white) group was sternly lectured about how to deport themselves in the presence of the Capitol Hill police--Zero tolerance for foolishness. Gotz nothing to do with race.

Drudge has this on his site this morning:

REP. DELAY: 'Cynthia mckinney is a racist. She has a long history of racism. Everything is racism with her. This is incredible arrogance, and -- that sometimes hits these members of congress, but especially Cynthia McKinney'...

"Why was she not arrested when she hit the officer? I would have been."

If there was ever a cause for a protest, this is one. We should DEMAND this sorry excuse for a human be charged and prosecuted for her crimes. It's "racial profiling" to let her get away with it. A judge should also send her for a mental evaluation for 30 days. She should at the very least be removed from congress.

Funny, isn't it, that we never hear Condi Rice whining about racial profiling, after all, she is a black woman, so doesn't she get the same treatment that McKinney gets?

Wolf usually respects politicans...but in this case...he knows she is a low-life player. I can't recall her being on with Wolf very much...if ever. She made a serious mistake showing up on the show. She makes the democrats look like fools and the entire Washington establishment looks foolish. I'm guessing that the cops will arrest her early next week...and try to end this mess.

This tactic is #1 in the lying liberal handbook: when you are losing the argument, cry racism. Works every time, 'cause it gives your media bootlickers a nice hook for the top of the news.

That's on the same timeline as the deportation of illegals.
