Please list some more "Sheilaisms" I need a good laugh today...what a boob!

( 8/3/2003 ) The congressional newspaper the Hill reported this week that Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) feels that the current names are too "lily white," and is seeking to have better representation for names reflecting African-Americans and other ethnic groups.

"All racial groups should be represented," Lee said, according to the Hill. She hoped federal weather officials "would try to be inclusive of African-American names."

A sampling of popular names that could be used include Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn, according to the paper

FYI - For those that want to know-
Specter had to suspend the Able Danger hearing because the DOD stonewalled and sent in a guy that could only say 'I don't know". It was bad. Sheesh.
