Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee Hard at Work at her Town Hall Meeting

[Tarheel]

I can only speculate as to the gerrymandering in Houston that got this woman elected; obviously she really has concern for understanding the thoughts of her constituents, a fine example of a DC elitist:

[Tiger Wench]

Do. NOT. Get. Me. Started. On. Queen. Sheila.

[Tarheel]

Do. NOT. Get. Me. Started. On. Queen. Sheila.

She was probably ordering some take-out lunch.  I know where her priorities are, Tiger Wench.

Wow...what a joke of a politician.  Should be legal to revolt and perform a citizens' arrest for not upholding her responsibility of representing the people and their views. 

As for the lady speaking into the microphone... 

[AUTiger1]

Really?  Answered the cell phone.........I would have threw the damn mic at her.

[Townhallsavoy]

And you would have been considered a nutjob.  You also would have been arrested, and more than likely, you would have had the shit kicked out of you. 

I'm very happy this video has surfaced, and I'm glad she did this.  It's perfectly representative of how low our country's government has fallen. 

Are people in Washington that clueless?  R or D, Elephant or Donkey, the representatives don't represent you and me.  They don't care.  They care about which member of their Fave 5 is contacting them about the new scoop in Washington.

'Arrest that man!  Have him flogged and sent to the re-education center!'

Don't forget racist and domestic terrorist.  I too am glad that video has surfaced.  It needs to be spread so all can see.

I don't think they are clueless.  I think they know exactly what they are doing.  I just don't think they care.  If they didn't know what they were doing, then they would get on the same healthcare plan they are trying to shove upon us instead of opting out of it.

***I wouldn't have actually threw the mic at her.  I have more courtesy than that.  Now what I truly would have done was speak a little louder, kept calling her name, and then asked why she didn't have time for her constituents.  Turn it around and make her look like a bitch.....not that she needed any help, her actions spoke louder than words.

[Tiger Wench]

She spent taxpayer money to attend Michael Jackson's funeral.

She tried to challenge the National Hurricane Center into giving hurricanes ethnic names like Sheniqua.

Her excuse for the phone call was the "the business of the people must continue..." Fuck that - what about the business of the people right in front of you, bitch?

She is certifiable.

But these were her actual constituents in that meeting, and they were pissed that NONE of them were notified in advance.  She is notorious in H-town for flooding local media with notices of her upcoming public events.  This time?  Not even the Chronicle got a heads-up.  Unfortuantely for her, the RNC heard about it and sent people door to door in that district.  The word spread and even the idiots that voted for her were ticked off.

She needs to GO.

[CCTAU]

  The word spread and even the idiots that voted for her were ticked off.

She needs to GO.

But do you think these people even have enough of what it takes to rectumfy their mistake?

[Tiger Wench]

But do you think these people even have enough of what it takes to rectumfy their mistake?

Nope.

But if I were some young, up and coming black politico, I would run for her seat, and I would cover the airwaves with that YouTube clip. 

On the other hand, other than being a waste of oxygen and voting straight party on bills and such, she does very little actual harm.

[oldautiger]

And she does very little good.
She could give lessons on camera hogging tho.
