no double standards

Here is something I agree with the right wing blogosphere on: our dislike of Rep. Cynthia McKinney (oh and I hate her dad too). Hotline On Call reported that she assaulted a Capitol Police officer because he didn't recognize her as she bypassed the metal detectors (as Members of Congress are allowed to do when they wear their member pin).
The officer called out "Ma'am, Ma'am," in an attempt to stop her.

When the officer caught up to McKinney, he grabbed her by the arm.

McKinney pulled her arm away, swung around, cell phone in hand, and punched the officer square in the chest, according to the witness.

This is the same woman who sides with Hamas over Israel, who is more extreme left than Noam Chompsky, who blamed her 2002 primary defeat on Republicans in an overwhelmingly democratic district with overwhelmingly democratic turnout. (the margin of victory was greater than all the GOP voters who voted in the democratic primary) McKinney is what is wrong with the far out left. Most of the liberals are no where near as crazy and bad as she is, but they need to condem her.
