Long time, no see...

Maybe she should compete in American Idol or some such show if she has to give up the day job...

PS: you'd better change the title to "Congresswoman" or Cynthia will come and punch you!

Yep still here NCP and off to Charlotte shortly for my legal alien card!

Cynthia darling calls herself congressman. She is more likely to punch me because I was a white police officer!

And anyway I once silenced an aggressive barrister in court who pointedly asked me if I had any difficulty in distinguishing between black people in an identification case. I said I used to live in Africa.

"No further questions m'lud"

He never thought to ask when.............I was 7 at the time!

If you'd like to know a great place for real Italian pizza in Charlotte, please PM me. It's about 10 mins from the USICS office. I went there for lunch between natz interview and natz ceremony in Feb this year.

Err, for the lazy among us (and those who don't watch Fox News), could you please post a thread or give us a clue what you are talking about?

(I used to live in Athens GA and seem to recall I never liked her whenever she appeared on local TV, so my guess is she's been up to no good)

Go watch CNN or cnn.com and you can catch up.
Your suspicions are confirmed!

Oh it's a great story.....

Pretentious Congress...man thinks she's too important to get screened at a security checkpoint, so she tries to walk through without showing any ID; when a guard goes to stop her he grabs her and she punches him.

Now she plays the race card and says it's only because she's Black.

She clearly knows nothing about security.

Or at least that's how I'm seeing it.

But she knows who SHE is all right "I am black, a woman and a Congressman and he never ecognised me" and he racially profiled me.

But the best bit was Sunday Irish's CNN interview when CMcK refused to answer the question!

That might have been repeated tonight on CNN; she was sitting next to her lawyer who answered all the questions.

Now she's getting the attention of a grand jury - whatever that means!
