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.
