On Thursday’s Newsroom, CNN’s Rick Sanchez couldn’t get a straight answer out of Democratic Representative Sheila Jackson-Lee about her cell phone use during a recent health care town hall, and after he repeatedly asked why she did it and if it was disrespectful, the Texas Democrat bizarrely raised the possibility that the YouTube video of her on the phone was “doctored” [the entire interview can be viewed here; audio clips from the segment are available here].

People with courage or ethics, admit when they have been found out. Not her or obamanation, though.. it is someone else’ fault.

She is a disgrace to Texas. Houston has got to wise up or go under.

"EAT THE BLUE PILL" and Bow Before Zod Department

Obamacare uses FAKE "Doctors" in DNC Plan to Exterminate the Elderly
and Deny Them All Independent Access to Real Doctors and Real Treatment.

"Patterico Busts TX Grad Student/Obama Delegate Posing As Doctor; Chron Doesn't Credit, Still Disclosure-Challenged
Ms. Mayer, who claimed to be a doctor when she spoke at a town hall meeting held by Houston Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee.
... At first, the Houston Chronicle took Mayer's word that she is a doctor, failed to investigate her bona fides"


"Obama camp plants fake doc, Che fan at Jackson Lee forum
One supporter, Dr. Roxana Mayer, a physician who does not live in Jackson Lee’s district, praised the reform plan for overhauling a broken system.
“I don’t know what there is in the bill that creates such panic,” she said.
In this video, Mayer claims to be a general practitioner, eliciting applause and even a hug from Queen Sheila:
.... Roxana Mayer is, like, totally not a doctor.
... her name does not appear in the database maintained by the Texas Medical Board, which licenses all doctors in Texas.
But she is an Obama campaign volunteer."

Are they concerned about eliminating pre-existing diseases? All of that I talked about.”

No more pre-existing diseases--eliminated--thanks to our dear Sheila.

I half expect that one day she'll reveal herself to be a brilliant actress pulling off the ultimate Borat/Bruno-style hoax.

Wrote this a while ago, Houston's Very Own Miss Piggy about our beloved Sheila Jackson Lee. She is one of those wonderful Liberal gifts that keeps on giving.

Her claim that "maybe that video was doctored" is priceless.

I would love to see a really bright Latino go up against her. Man or Woman.. someone charismatic with good people and leadership skills.

Very nice expose. Another LIB that has no qualms in lying (and being a smart-ass about it, too),

She was probably verifying that the astronauts did in fact leave a flag on Mars after they landed there.

Well the video was probably doctored by the same people who switched the Mars-scape for the moonscape, thus making her out to look like she committed a faux pas in her earlier debacle.

Queen Sheila chewed up and spit out poor wittle Rickie!

The poor guy couldn't get a word in edgewise and when he did, she quickly filibustered him, even speaking over him.

He was left shaking his head, knowing he was being made a fool of.

Manhandled by Queen Sheila who was laughing at him at the end of the interview.

Video was stamped by CNN as 3:53 ET, on Thursday.

This was posted on August 12, 2009 at the Houston on the Potomac blog for the Houston Chronicle:

“Jackson Lee explained she was on her cell phone during Tuesday’s town hall meeting because she had called the House health care hotline seeking answers to a number of questions about particular elements of the health care bill moving through Congress.

“I had been on the cell phone getting a series of questions answered,” Jackson Lee said. “I don’t know why [Republicans think] it’s so challenging. I happen to be able to think, listen and maybe even talk at the same time.”

http://blogs.chron.com/txpotomac/2009/08/sheila_jackson_lee_responds_to.html

So yesterday, she was talking on the cell phone, but today, it’s a doctored video.

Sometimes, it’s just better to admit it, Sheila.

Well...that had to have been that den of racists at NASA.
