Just imagine the roles reversed, so that it would be a big joke when two whites knocked out a black woman “by accident.”
Lee waits on a daily basis to be offended. She waits for it.
I thought it was one of the few funny ones. Too bad Jackson Lee has no sense of humor. How’s she on the State Farm commercials where the African-American woman wishes she had a hunk for a hubby (by ‘singing’ the State Farm jingle), gets him and then gets mad when he does the same?
Or does her memory not go back that far?
I’m glad old Sheila is on top of the critical issues facing this nation.
This stupid b*tch would find racism in an oreo cookie.
I found it demeaning to white women
What??!
You don’t??
Your skin is much too thick, my FRiend. /s/
Well, how else could she be a perpetual, professional victim?
SJL is an affront to the great state of Texas.
It was funny. Not quite as good as Roseanne Barr, or whoever that was, getting zonked by a log, but it was good.
I wouldn’t call it demeaning. I think I’d use the term Assault and Battery.
Ms. Jackson-Lee is correct about the commercial not being the least bit funny, though.
I thought it was black history month.
The black woman in question represents Michelle Obama, no?
This particular ad somehow reminded me of Michelle and Barack....and how Michelle is always giving him grief for what he eats.
Racist? no
Sexist? no
Demeaning? no
Somewhat violent? ok
Typical of married couples (no matter what race)? Yeh..I can see it.
Once again, another lib’s feelings are hurt....lets regulate.
Some people live just to get their knickers twisted. Sounds like she is one of them. Since she thought the commercial was in bad taste for February’s Black History Month... would it have been funny in March? Just a thought.
This lady needs to slow down and relax a mite. Maybe have a Pepsi?
I took away, hit white biatch with soda can in head and run to avoid the situation. Nice message if you're going to worry about the societal consequences of pepsi commercials.
All I’ll say is that most good comedy is based partially on the truth, so I wonder if Ms. Jackson-Lee is projecting a bit?
Pretty obvious we haven’t gotten to a ‘post racial’ society.
But I’m also wondering if Ms. Lee isn’t also suffering from and covering over the widely known anger of black women at black men who show any perceived attraction for white women.
