This woman is the gift that keeps on giving.
“In 1997, while on a trip to the Mars Pathfinder operations center in California, Jackson Lee confused the planet Mars with Earth’s own moon, asking whether the Pathfinder had succeeded in taking a picture of the flag planted on Mars by Neil Armstrong in 1969.”
“In July 2010 Jackson Lee said: “Today, we have two Vietnams, side by side, North and South, exchanging and working. We may not agree with all that North Vietnam is doing, but they are living in peace. I would look for a better human rights record for North Vietnam, but they are living side by side.” It was noted that Vietnam had not been split for four decades, and that the government of Vietnam does not consider South Vietnam to have ever been a sovereign nation.”
“Jackson Lee said in January 2011 that repealing the health care law would be in violation of the Constitution. She argued that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is constitutional under the Commerce Clause, and that repealing it would violate both the Fifth and the Fourteenth Amendments.”
“At a Homeland Security Committee hearing on radical Muslims in the US, held in March 2011, Jackson Lee said that Peter King’s hearings were helping al-Qaeda and “going the same route as Arizona.” She complained that the hearings were scaring Muslim Americans and called them “an outrage.”
“In 2011 she was reported to have one of the highest staff turnovers in Congress and to be one of the worst bosses. The Huffington Post and Houston Chronicle reported that she had gone through 11 chiefs of staff in 11 years. In 2011 she was named as one of the “worst bosses in Washington” by “Daily Caller.” The Huffington Post stated that “Jackson Lee regularly appears on Washingtonian magazine’s list of the “Best and Worst of Congress” as the “meanest” member of House of Representatives.” That reputation as the worst boss on Capitol Hill continued; in 2012 Washingtonian again listed her as the meanest member of the House, a report in 2013 concluded that “the veteran Texas Democrat had the highest turnover rate for all of Congress over the past decade.”
That’s a great rehash of her stupidity; thanks. We’ll never move forward as a nation until we hold blacks to the same standards as whites. Remember Dan Quayle/potatoe? Look at what these tokens spew nowadays...not a peep from the enemedia. I hope Trump greatly accelerated their demise.
She hops in her taxpayer provided limo to drive across the street.
When her high school son was looking at colleges, she complained there weren’t any black ones in Texas. There are at least 9 in the state and if only she’d looked out her office window she’d have seen two. One being Texas Southern founded in 1927 and... drum roll... Prairie View A&M founded in 1876.
Then there was the time she punched a WH security.
