No, her Houston constiuents will continue to support her because her constituents think she has anything she wants coming to her. You can call it reparations or entitlements., she deserves it in their minds.

Houston, can you just retire the bee-yatch already?

Will never happen. The constituents in her Gerrymandered district will look at her Tweet, "I noted that this individual came toward me and took a picture. I heard later that she might have said “I know who she is.” Since this was not any fault of mine, the way the individual continued to act appeared to be, upon reflection, because I was an African American woman" - and nod their heads and say: "Mmmm Hmmm! At's right! Sheila be speakin' truth to power!"

Democrats always project their values (or most often their lack of values) on the object of their attack.

The Lee story should have been much ado about nothing——b/c the egotistical woman has no concern or empathy for anyone but herself.

She does reprehensible things like this all the time.

But Lee’s (a) annoying self-serving denials, (b) her unbelievable self-aggrandizement, and, (c) her offensive display of govt entitlement stack up as the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back.

EXCERPT: Ten Percent Is Not Enough / American Renaissance web site

Our rulers don’t seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They don’t understand that white people aren’t out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them.

They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, the reflexive animosity.

The elites explain everything with “racism,” and refuse to believe that white frustration could soon reach the boiling point.

We, the people, need to cut these govt ***holes down to size. Not just the despicable Sheila J/L....but the whole frickin cartload of the SOB’s.

Cut their office budgets....cut their staff size....cut off their perks and privileges....etc etc etc.

In Congress, they lead lives of leisure, their every whim financed by our tax dollars.

Like their lords or kings in a monarchy.......helping themselves to the tax dollars they extort from the citizenry they treat as peons.

This has got to stop

United Airlines Customer Service: 1 800-864-8331

United airline’s explanation of how this all took place is dubious to begin with.

Simon was on the final leg of a no doubt exhausting trip from Guatemala back to DC with a flight change in Texas.

What possible motivation would she have to suddenly cancel her trip? In fact, other than checking the departure gate and seeing if the flight was on schedule, why would she be messing around with her reservation at all?

She’s asked United Airline to provide proof that she had inadvertently cancelled her flight, but none has been produced yet. Seems to me that it would have been a relatively easy thing for United to do and they could have put all of this to rest.

Have the Houston newspapers been reporting this Sheila Jackson Lee fiasco? Or have the local Houston papers been ignoring negative news about their local politician?

Jackson Lee always has her race cards at the ready-—no matter what the situation.

In football she’d be benched for unnecessary roughness.

(HAT TIP DAILY CALLER) In a 1997 visit to NASA, Jackson Lee reportedly asked if the Mars Rover that NASA had landed on the planet had located the American flag planted on the surface. No astronaut has ever been to Mars, and when the embarrassing anecdote was reported, Jackson Lee claimed it was a racist attack.

“You thought you could have fun with a black woman member of the Science Committee,” was her defense in a letter to the editor.

The entitled Jackson Lee once tried to close down an entire hallway in her congressional office building so she could have a private meeting with Michael Jackson.

A human rights activist, or a “human rights activist”? There are certainly a few of the first, who do not object to conservatives having the same rights as liberals, but most are the other kind, who consider conservative points of view infringement upon their rights to desire nanny state lifecare.

Above all else, Sheila is a queen and demands to be treated as one.

...(c) her offensive display of govt entitlement stack up as the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back.

That breaking ought to include a significant boycott of vendors who violate the obligations they have to the public when they attempt to gain favor, or avoid threats, by treating elected officials as royalty. There was a time when a small percentage of us waged and won a revolution over such.

From Fox: "The (UAL) official said...(t)he congresswoman was then tapped for the seat because she was at the top of the upgrade list thanks to her global services status."
