• The Left loves Racial Profiling because they both adore Belle & Sebastian and have so many hilarious inside jokes that you just wouldn’t get and when they’re at work, they call each other every half hour. They are in love and every night they snuggle on the beach until the tide carries them away. And just because you can’t understand it, RedState — that doesn’t mean it’s not real. Because it is and it’s beautiful. [RedState]

Yesterday afternoon, our most favorite congresswoman ever, Rep. Cynthia McKinney, spoke with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on “The Situation Room.” This was shortly after Blitzer reported that federal prosecutors are considering whether to bring charges against McKinney stemming out of her recent scuffle with Capitol Police.

Here are some highlights:

BLITZER: Well, here is what some of your critics are saying, and I know you know this. And we’ll put a picture up, a recent photo that is in the Capitol Hill book.

This was a picture of you now. This is what you look like now. Obviously, you have a new hairstyle, as opposed to your old hairstyle. And what they’re saying is, when you changed your hairstyle, they didn’t recognize you, they politely asked you to stop and you resisted several attempts by one of the Capitol Hill Police officers to stop and to identify yourself. And as a result, there was this altercation in which they say you allegedly hit the police officer.

MCKINNEY: Wolf, the only thing I can say about the juxtaposition of those two pictures is that in one of them I happen to have a little more makeup on about the way I am here on CNN today. But the bottom line is that my face hasn’t changed, and I haven’t changed.

I’ve looked like this for the entire 11 years that I have been in Congress. And so, I don’t understand exactly why it is that certain police officers have a problem remembering my face….

Amen! It is somewhat ridiculous that the Capitol Police officers can’t recognize a representative, after seeing her day after day for over a decade — regardless of how she styles her hair. It reminds us of that elderly door monitor at the university library who insisted on scrutinizing our I.D. card at length, every single time we entered, even after seeing us several times a day for the better part of three years.

More insanity after the jump.
