She is Dumber than a Box of Barbara Boxers.

In fact, Anvils, Hammers and Rocks make fun of her at Cocktail Parties.

LMAO! Holy smoke you have to be kidding me, I never heard of those. WHO the hell voted for this moron? Don’t tell me: Blacks because of her race. Exact same reason we got another moron in the WH.

“Is it affirmative action, or just stupid is as stupid does?”

Both are one in the same.

Your guess is correct as to the demographics of her district. Amazing that TEXAS has foisted her upon the nation. You’d expect SJL to come from Massachusetts!

The sad part is that most recent graduates of the American education system don’t have the ability nor desire to call her on it.

That minority contingent in most any locale can produce the same kind of elected idiot.

We had a woman here in Indiana who was was functionally illiterate to begin with and then suffered from senile dementia. At the end of her “career” she basically went from the Capitol building to the mortuary. Then they elected her grandson as replacement who is a double win - black AND muslim.

Although God give rights are timeless, our constitution may be the best written declaration of them.

Perhaps she did well on the oral exam?

The Houston representative declared the U.S. Constitution was some 400 years old.

Clearly, she is referring to the Union of the Crowns under King James in which the crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland were united under a single monarch but as to which each jurisdiction retained its own sovereignty -- in other words, she is making the subtle argument that this event was the genesis of the principle of federalism that was later memorialized in writing in our constitution.

In her view, it was not the mere writing down of the concept in the Constitution that was the important part, but rather its earlier implementation under the Union of the Crowns that gave birth to the architecture of our government.

You give her way too much credit.
And way too much intelligence.

I’ve known lots of people rich and poor, highly educated and not so much. Hands down the most intelligent were the ‘Duck Dynasty” looking rednecks. It ain’t EVEN close. And most of them didn’t have college degrees at all. But they had minds like razors behind the ‘Aw shucks’ facade.

So who is her Republican nominee? Why make fun of the woman if we aren’t going to fight her seat. What a waste of time.

i have said stupid stuff before

We have all said stupid things in our day, but 99% of us know the astronauts did not plant a flag on Mars. We would maybe like to think our elected reps had at least an ounce of brains. It appears to me, this woman does not have a microgram of grey matter in her head.
