Once again, Michelle digs out a goodie! The AP has just announced that U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney may soon get her day in court — as a defendant!

Capitol Hill police have referred a scuffle between one of their officers and U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington, D.C., a spokesman for the office said Monday.

“We are working with Capitol Hill police to fully understand and appreciate the incident,” principal assistant U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. “Pending review, it is inappropriate for us to comment any further at this time.”

Phillips would not say whether a warrant was issued for McKinney’s arrest.

McKinney spokesman Coz Carson on Monday also acknowledged the investigation.

“We’re aware that the wheels are turning in Washington,” Carson said. “We have no control over what they decide to do. We will make the appropriate statement and take the appropriate action once we know where they’re going.”

Of course the usual suspects were out there this AM singing her praises.

At a press conference Monday morning, black clergy and lawmakers came the defense of the firebrand congresswoman. McKinney smiled as her supporters heaped praise on her leadership and her new look _ her trademark cornrows replaced earlier this year by a curly brown afro.

Please . . . Like I wrote here the other day: Cynthia — apologize to the officer, wear your pin like everyone else, and just shut up! (db)
