Sheila Jackson Lee on continuing resolution: 'We have martial law' (Video)
Examiner.com ^ | October 9, 2013 | Joe Newby

On Monday, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, said from the floor of the House of Representatives that America is now under martial law because of the continuing resolution.

"This is not an idea of anyone over another person. Republican and Democratic Senators have already voted for this clean bill that we could vote on today. We have martial law. What that means--and my colleagues know what it means--is that you can put a bill on in just minutes," she said.

You can always tell one is a Lefty. They only have one finger on each hand. They use that finger to communicate their dislike of others. Because of their math impairment, they also use that finger to remind them of their IQ.

Republicans need to remind the American people just which party is the majority party in DC.

One would think that since Obama’s first day in office the republicans controlled everything else.

That dim-bulb’s filament melted at birth. She should be strapped to a gurney with a Thorazine drip at full speed.

“Idiot Politicians.” is an oxymoron, as is “Heartless Politicians”, “Soulless Politicians”, etc.

Maybe she is letting the proverbial cat out of the bag.

That was my first thought. The village idiot states the plain truth of demoncrat vile deeds, but the words are laughed off because of the screwball source. Just another way this admin sends a big "FU" to the American People.

Dude!

The US has been in a perpetual state of emergency since FDR confiscated privately held gold. Wasn’t that about 1935 or so?

Think about it......

Orwellian. When the Federal government is supposedly closed, they actually have total control via martial aw.
When CW2 breaks out, she’s on the list.

I'm reading it the same way.

Nobody expects the canary in a coalmine to be capable of complicated rational thought/strategy processes.

Why would anyone expect Sheila Jackson Lee to comprehend that what she and her colleagues are attempting, requires a certain degree of discretion?

She is almost as stupid as the filthy, degenerate, putrid, scum piece of garbage in the White House.

Her hometown newspaper continues to treat her as a serious individual.

When the appalling thought of Lee as a cabinet secretary was floated and rightfully ridiculed on all sides, the Chronicle couldn’t understand what the fuss was about and dutifully reprinting her ‘achievements.’

If we have martial law now, then I want Birdbrain Lee to be the first put up against the wall and shot for stupidity (in her case, Treason would be a lesser included charge).

How about a little taste of Che and Fidel, Sheila?

What a Fu*king dumbass. A disgrace to America and real patriots.

Sheila is just confusing Martial law with Marital law.
Her party has made so many changes to Marital law that
she can’t keep them straight.

Let the truth be spoken by the voice of insanity, and noone will believe it.

Meanwhile, these demoniacs are itching to open the trapdoor called Obamacare, so they can watch the remnant of the American People plummet into the abyss.
