On Monday, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, said from the floor of the House of Representatives that America is now under martial law because of the continuing resolution.
"This is not an idea of anyone over another person. Republican and Democratic Senators have already voted for this clean bill that we could vote on today. We have martial law. What that means--and my colleagues know what it means--is that you can put a bill on in just minutes," she said.

I’m thinking short circuit with occasional sparks of insignificance.

Pig/acorn. The U.S. has been in a perpetual state of emergency since 9/11.

We need a new topic named “Idiot Politicians.” Or, “Politicians With Room Temperature IQs.”

When there just isn’t enough buffoonery and irrelevance to be found, trust SJL to deliver.

I’m thinking short circuit with occasional sparks of insignificance.CD in a microwave. Incoherent flashes, accompanied by a smoke screen and a horrible stench.

I don’t understand what she is talking about. That’s okay because I’m old, however, I strongly suspect she doesn’t know either.

This isn’t funny. This ignorant cow, any many more just as stupid are making laws we must obey at the risk of freedom or financial penalties. I wonder if the founders ever, in their wildest dreams, imagined someone this stupid following in their footsteps.

When I saw the headline, I thought she was talking about the EBT card shutdown.

Maybe she is letting the proverbial cat out of the bag. A black cat, no doubt.

That's okay, because she doesn't either.

She’s just lightheaded from hunger, since her EBT cards don’t work.

I think she meant Martian Law. We’ve had it since the astronauts planted a flag there.
