On a United Airlines flight from Houston to Washington, DC, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Tex) added another bumped passenger to her growing list. When the passenger complained Jackson labeled her a "racist."
Jean-Marie Simon, the woman Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee called a racist, is a photojournalist who helped document human-rights abuses in Guatemala during the 1980s. She currently teaches in a private school and is a registered Democrat.
"All that stuff about what she did in Guatemala doesn't change the fact that she is white," Lee argued. "All whites are racists. She was probably trying to atone for her whiteness by going to Guatemala. And registering Democrat doesn't mean anything. It was Democrats who manned the firehouses in Selma. It was Democrats who made the Jim Crow laws. It was Democrats who fought the Civil War to defend slavery. The key thing is that she objected to a black woman taking her seat instead of realizing that it was a small reparation for all the suffering her kind inflicted on my kind over the centuries."
In related news, Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei praised Black Lives Matter for "their heroic opposition to the wanton murder of black men, women, and children" and urged them "to join the jihad against the Great Satan who oppresses their people."

I had the opportunity to sit in on a conversation between Sheila Jackson-Lee and Tom Ridge when Gov. Ridge was the Homeland Security Advisor and what an experience. I can testify, from first-hand experience, that she is one self-righteous, arrogant and painfully stupid bitch - not to mention seriously corrupt! (She was arguing for the release of a very wealthy “constituent” of hers who was on the Terrorist Watch List.)
How on earth did you manage to keep a straight face for the duration of that interview? :-)
Oh, I didn’t! Lots of “WTF!” facial expressions, but then, Ridge knew I would - rather like the time I had to brief Porter Goss and Nancy Pelosi, who were the Chairman and Ranking Member, respectively, of the HPSCI at the time. Pelosi may very well be the dumbest human being I’ve ever met. She had difficulty putting together a complete sentence and understanding anything - and that was 14 years ago.
Just think!
She has added 14 more years worth of her material to her “act”.
