Sheila Jackson Lee Suggests Martial Law to End Government Shutdown
Freedom Out post ^ | October 12, 2013 | Tim Brown

Posted on 10/13/2013 2:45:09 PM PDT by Mozilla

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX), who has been rumored as being considered to replace Janet Napolitano to head the Department of Homeland Security, used some very strange language earlier this week to characterize a sentiment for a clean resolution to end the government shutdown. She labeled it a form of "martial law."

Yes, we have heard Ms. Lee say some whimsical and ridiculous things in her time in office, which I'm sure embarrass her fellow Texans, but this has to be one of the most ridiculous ones to date.

She pushed that the measure was bi-partisan, including Democrats and Republicans.

"It's something called a continuing resolution, but it's a bill that you put on the floor that has been passed already by Republicans and Democrats in the United States Senate....that we could vote on today," Lee said.

"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 added.

The only way I can think of to use martial law in the current difficulties would be to have the army shoot everyone who disagrees with her.

And it’s quite possible that’s what she is referring to.

Considering Ms. Lee to head HLS means she is being touted for the color of her skin, not for her character. Certainly not for her intelligence, which is sorely lacking to an alarming degree!

I have always been amused by this creature; her avowed “hate whitey” racism runs counter her hyphenated name. And I doubt she is smart enough to grasp the irony of it..

Did Guam eventually ‘capsize’ as predicted by Congressman Hank Johnson?

What if too many flags are placed on Mars, and it capsizes?

Wait, what? This must not be allowed to happen!!! I know we have Joe Biden as Veep, but isn't there somewhere we can put down a marker, "The STUPID stops here?" This carp needs to be nipped in the bud!
