I have to admit that I hadn't really heard of this person before this post (Gotta love FR for sheer information value), so I looker her up on Google. There's an ABCnews profile (glowing), which contains this little gem:

Jackson Lee won the special election in 1996 with 77 percent of the vote, was unopposed in the 1998 primary and won re-election in 1998 with 90 percent.

90%?????? No one wins a real election with 90% of the votes cast. She's a queen, all right.

How embarrassing for me to admit that Sheila's my congresswoman! I'm in a mostly Republican neighborhood that used to be in Bill Archer's 7th Congressional District (now John Culberson's; was George Herbert Walker Bush's seat a long time ago). In the 1991 redistricting we got drawn into Queen Sheila's realm, the 18th Cong. Dist. At least she provides humor between offering socialist amendments. Some consolation. It would take much more than this to dethrone her. I forget what took down her predecessor, Craig Washington.

You hadn't heard of Shiela???????? Oh My.

One of the great posts on FR was Driving Miss Shiela which was a parody of Driving Miss Daisy. Apparently Missy enslaved most of her staff to drive her here and there on their own time without pay. When she attempted to advance the scheme to the airlines ferrying her between Washington and Texas, they told her to f*ck off. Her staff turnover rate is the highest in congress. Hillary could learn a lesson or two from this BITCH.
