Cynthia McKinney, whose slight off-her-rocker-ness is matched and often beaten by a good dozen of her former colleagues in America's House of Representatives, from Ron Paul through Michelle Bachmann, but who is invariably mocked and marginalized because she is a nutty antiwar leftist and not a baby-farming lunatic religious fruitcake moron (Bachmann) or a H. G. Wellsian 18th century time traveler in a world he didn't create (Paul), is famous mostly for punching a Capitol Policeman in 2006.

Article showed up in my "Ron Paul" Google News RSS feed.

First time I've been to Gawker. Are their articles always like this?

That sentence has more twists and bends than Arkansas State Highway Seven. And the view isn't nearly as good.

Thank God for our Wellesian Eighteenth Century Time Traveler. If we had no one to show us the good things we should never have let go by the wayside (but did anyway), how could we ever reclaim and reinvigorate our great nation?

this is why i'm so sick of paulers who bash cynthia. If you think she's nuts, you're drinking from the same punchbowl as the people who shot down Ron

I check Gawker and their sports blog Deadspin once a day. Half of the posts piss me off, the other half are really funny.

Sometimes I read stories on Consumerist, which Gawker just sold to Consumers Union.

The doctors call box is locked. Must not be for public use...

Half-Life much? :D

There is an "experimental" medical suit in Fallout 3 that is supposedly like the Half-life suit.
It even speaks to you.

HG Wellsean? HG Wells was a marxist socialist who was one of the founders of the British Fabian Society...and wrote a book called "The New World Order". That is miles away from Ron Paul. tones
