U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee on Thursday distanced herself from a University of Houston graduate student and Texas Obama delegate who falsely identified herself as a pediatric physician at the congresswoman's health care reform town hall meeting this week.
I've never met her, Jackson Lee said as she prepared to take questions from doctors and other health care workers in a session at St. Joseph Medical Center.
Roxana Mayer, who warmly embraced Jackson Lee at the close of Tuesday's session at a Fifth Ward community center, had spoken in favor of the president's health care package. The Texas Medical Board, which oversees doctors in Texas, has no record of Mayer, 31, holding a physician's license.
In a West Coast political blog, Patterico's Pontifications, Mayer admitted she is not a doctor.
When queried by the Houston Chronicle if she held a medical license outside Texas, she responded via e-mail: If my initial statement to the Houston Chronicle can not be substantiated, then I understand your responsibility to omit it.

N-i-c-e take.
Perfectly sums up the immeasurable fallout from Obama’s healthcare debacle....the repercussions are astounding.
The cell phone clip has become iconic-illustrative of Congress utter contmept for the people they work for.
))))
I hope some clever person combines that clip with one of her hugging President Bush at a State of the Union speech and sends it along the email highway. She always got an aisle seat so she could be seen on camera with the President. Maybe that clip will doom her with her own constituents.
“Finally, I don’t know where this woman came from”
Nobody knows. She has an I.Q. <75, that much is certain.
“I hear Snarlen went down 12 points after his townhalls. He was up 11 points prior.....a 23 point switcheroo. “
Bad news for “The Aging Whore”
Someone needs to design a poster using one of those pics, and add a legend that reads: “10 out of 10 fake doctors agree: Obamacare is the best health care!”
“Beam me up, Snotty. I’m in BIG trouble here!”
Is that the only jacket the brunette lady with glasses has. Nothing like being inconspicuous. And the glasses, whoa!!
Yeah SJL talks with this deeep voice...like that supposedly makes her frieghtening. she is some pathetic.
You NEVER hear of her doing ANYTHING constructive in her district.
Well there was this one story...she was fighting to keep a local dilapadated school open (very unhealthy), because a long time ago it was a “Black School”. The district wanted to tear it down and replace with state of the art school.
THAT is the EXTENT her racism goes, keep “black” kids in substandard schools...B****.
Liz, I wish the good people of Texas would vote the crazed anti-white Mau Mau from office.
Molon Labe,
Arlen down 12 points after his townhalls............could not have happened to a nicer guy (snicker).
It’s not just the cell phone incident. Watch in the video as she reads some papers while the fake doctor is speaking to her.
Hmmmmmmm.....now that I see this (ahem) side of Lee, I think she was
cell-phoning an order of three double pizzas with four gallons of Pepsi,
and a side of three loaves of garlic bread.
“Charge dat to de House Pizza Subcommittee”
OBVIOUSLY...SJL is not taking advantage of that PREVENTATIVE CARE offered by HER insurance.
ML/NJ
Reminds me broadway/screen star Dianne Carroll's bio where she writes of being disinvited from the smash hit "No Strings" opening night party-----by composer Richard Rodgers himself-----just b/c she was black.
This hypocrite Rodgers won a Pulitzer for his song about racism ("You've Got to be Taught to Hate"--from South Pacific).
Some serious artertial sclerosis, cholesterol and incipient diabetes there.
Some fact checking for the Houston Chronicle reporter:
Her name is not on the Texas democrat party 2008 delegate list.
