This week's Moonbat of the Week is Congressman Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) for her assault on a Capitol Police officer while he was performing his duties, then claiming she was a victim of racism. Some of th highlights of the incident include:

From Fox News:

Rep. Cynthia McKinney, the Georgia congresswoman who had an altercation with a Capitol Police officer, said Friday the officer started the incident by "inappropriately touching and stopping" her after she walked past a security checkpoint.

Let's be clear about something here…she blew past the security checkpoint, ignored requests to stop and be identified, then, when an officer stepped up to detain her, as she was in clear violation of security procedures, she hit him.

Now, if any average citizen, regardless of skin color, had done the same, they would have been hauled off to jail, no passing "go" and no "collecting $200."

On Thursday, the Congressman for Georgia made the following statement:

"There should not have been any physical contact in this incident," McKinney said.

"I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all, and I regret its escalation and I apologize," she said surrounded by colleagues on the House floor.

In the first part, she is right, she should not have hit the police officer,

Unfortunately, that is not what she is referring to, but to the officer stopping her when she blasted past the security checkpoint.

As for the rest of her "apology", I think McKinney, as well as many others in the Democratic Party, have taken the line of Capt. Brittles (John Wayne) in "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon", "never apologize; it's a sign of weakness" way too seriously, and have applied this philosophy to mastering the non-apology "apology".
