Hold the presses.

I found something about Jackson Lee and hurricanes!

Hurricane Mbutu?

"Although Spanish and French names are included in this year’s lineup, among them Juan and Claudette, which struck Texas last week, popular African American names, like Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn, are nowhere to be found.

Some black lawmakers don’t seem to mind, but Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) does. “All racial groups should be represented,” said Lee.

Give me a break......

Katrina sounds like a pretty black name to me.

h, now that is priceless. I'm so glad to see that she has her priorities in order. ;-)

I hope she is held accountable for her hindrance in improving race relations. She only incites more divisiveness. Peacemaker she is not.

I'd also like to see her get her butt down there to the Astrodome and roll up her sleeves and help out. The fine citizens of Texas have shown amazing and admirable hospitality - no thanks to her.

WEeeeellll, then. I have a great idea!

Let's change the name of Hurricane Katrina to "Hurricane Kayne"

(slow load, but well worth the wait)
