Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney “apologizes” to the House for the incident in which she allegedly hit a Capitol policeman with her cell phone … on behalf of both herself and the policeman.

“There should not have been any physical contact in this incident,” McKinney said in brief remarks on the House floor. “I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all and I regret its escalation and I apologize.”

Now perhaps she can start a training program for the Capitol police, in order to demonstrate to them how you stop a potentially dangerous person who is ignoring your verbal requests, without grabbing their arm, and without any “physical contact” whatsoever.

If the officer had just tasered her, would that have been more “appropriate?”

I don’t know. Making fun of Cynthia McKinney’s logic is like shooting goldfish in a can, whether it’s about this incident or her theories about 9/11. And yet, she has been re-elected at least 6 times by the people of her district in Georgia.
