May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

Racist Sheila Jackson Lee Brings Obama's Race Into Debt Ceiling Fight

The 'wascally 'wepublicans aren't really trying to be fiscally responsible, they're opposing raising taxes and increasing the debt ceiling because Obama is black. Really.

Sheila Jackson Lee asks about ‘Christian militants’ during anti-Muslim hearing | Raw Replay

I had written a couple times earlier about the notion of "Christian Terrorists" here here and here , how Leftists, Secularists and anti-Christian bigots like Sheila Jackson Lee draws moral equivalency between groups they despise and other bad actors. This is shameless, but then again Lee is one of the most stupid people in public office, a liar, anti-Christian bigot and racist.
Vid of her inane and stupid utterances on the issue:
Sheila Jackson Lee asks about ‘Christian militants’ during anti-Muslim hearing | Raw Replay

“Are you familiar with the Christian militants?” she asked former New York Dept. of Correctional Services official Patrick Dunleavy. “Can one might say that they might possibly want to undermine this country because right now the right for women to choose is a Constitutional right but people disagree with it but here is an individual trying to undermine the protections that are given to women? Would you suggest that might be compared to trying to undermine this country? That’s a possibility, is it not?”

Love how these self important narcissists, in hearing after hearing, ask a question, and then drone on without letting a complete answer being provided. I used to be an avid CSPAN watcher, but it fell away mostly for that reason.

Stupid is as Stupid Does

Amazing the really low powered intellect of some of the people we elect to office. This is Sheila Jackson Lee, a Congresswoman from Texas. Usually Texans have it pretty together, but this woman’s utterances on a regular basis amazes.

Recently she was commenting on the judicial rulings that Obamacare is unconstitutional. Two federal judges have said the Federal government cannot force citizens to buy a product from the private sector.


Here’s Lee’s response in defense of Obamacare and why it’s constitutional.
“The Fifth Amendment speaks specifically to denying someone their life and liberty without due process.” “That is what H.R. 2 does and I rise in opposition to it. And I rise in opposition because it is important that we preserve lives and we recognize that 40 million-plus are uninsured.

 “Can you tell me what’s more unconstitutional than taking away from the people of America their Fifth Amendment rights, their Fourteenth Amendment rights, and the right to equal protection under the law?”

Gibberish. She is clueless human being.

She thought the Superbowl Pepsi ad, where a black couple was arguing, the woman throws a Pepsi can at him and it hits a blond white woman in the head. The blond falls to the ground and the black couple runs away. It’s apparently racist because it demeans black people. Huh?

During a tour of the NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratories in 2005 she asked if the Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong!  Huh?

This Congressman serves on these committees:
  • Member, House Committee on Foreign Affairs
  • Member, Subcommittee on Africa and Global Health
  • Member, Subcommittee on The Middle East and South Asia
  • Member, House Committee on Homeland Security
  • Member, Subcommittee on Border, Maritime, and Global Counter terrorism
  • Chair, Subcommittee on Transportation Security and Infrastructure Protection
  • Member, House Committee on the Judiciary
  • Member, Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property
  • Member, Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security
  • Member, Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law

Really? She’s also on the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee. Science?

She complained that hurricanes didn’t have black names. All racial groups should be represented. Huh?

Just huh?
Side by side, North and South and huh?

She also has said “countries like Europe”.

This from her racist address to the racist NAACP last summer:
And I thank you professor very much. I’m going to be engaging you with those very powerful numbers that you have offered on what the tea party recognizes, uh, or is recognized as. Might I add my own P.S.? All those who wore sheets a long time ago have now lifted them off and started wearing [applause], uh, clothing, uh, with a name, say, I am part of the tea party. Don’t you be fooled. [voices: "That's right.", applause] Those who used to wear sheets are now being able to walk down the aisle and speak as a patriot because you will not speak loudly about the lack of integrity of this movement. Don’t let anybody tell you that those who spit on us as we were walking to vote on a health care bill for all of America or those who said Congresswoman Jackson-Lee’s braids were too tight in her hair had anything to do with justice and equality and empowerment of the American people. Don’t let them fool you on that [applause]….

Really? This is an elected representative of citizens?  How does this happen? I understand people that have a different socio-economic-political philosophy or world view, but downright stupid?
