WHERE IS SHEILA JACKSON LEE?? IS SHE HELPING OUT IN HOUSTON?

[SoFloFreeper]

Sheila Jackson Lee, from Houston, is the congresswoman who thought our astronauts had landed on Mars. Does anyone know if she is helping the evacuees or doing anything for the people of Houston? I hope she is...just wondering.

[massgopguy]

She has an appointment to meet Cindy Sheehan.

[tracer_bullet]

"thought our astronauts had landed on Mars"

WTF???

[chiefqc]

Are you kidding, she is as far away from any danger as possible. You'll hear her complaining after it all over.

[mtbopfuyn]

Probably on a plane to vacation in Hawaii hollering at everyone to get out of HER way.

[mlc9852]

She really thought the astronauts landed on Mars???? Is that where she is from???

[The Great RJ]

She just heard that there is planetary warming on Mars and is busy blaming it on Bush for sending astronauts there.

[peyton randolph]

I believe she is with Calypso Louie in the mothership protecting the Galveston sea wall from being blown up by the white devils who are trying to kill the black fruits of Islam.

[evolved_rage]

She's probably buying a new house in Dallas next to Mayor Nagin...

[darkwing104]

If she haven't been on CNN from Houstion then my money says "She isn't there"...

[doug from upland]

Yes. She was on a space subcommittee. At a news conference a few years ago, they were discussing a Mars rover. She talked about the flag our astronauts had planted on Mars. Idiot is too kind a term for Sheila.

[auto power]

I seriously doubt whether she knows where Houston is...

[UNscared]

Ironically, she also raised a big ruckus because there were no hurricanes named after black persons!

[TommyDale]

She is in Washington, saving her aisle seat for President Bush's next "State of the Union" speech.

[Old North State]

She was last seen in Johnson Space Center working on an evacuation plan to move people out of Texas across the border with France.

[Red Badger]

She isn't there even when she is there..........

[Buck W.]

Inded she did. When discussing a mars probe with NASA (as I recall), she asked if it would be able to see the flag that the astronauts placed there.

She's a marsbat, not a moonbat.

[brytlea]

I remember that. I was still living in TX and thought how embarrasing that anyone that stupid could have been elected anywhere (especially TX!!)
susie

[Cboldt]

Are you kidding, she is as far away from any danger as possible. You'll hear her complaining after it all over.

She was standing behind and to the left of the Mayor of Houston during his press conference this morning.

[Red Badger]

She's in NAWRLINS helping to rebuild the damage caused by Bush and Rove.........../s

[Let's Roll]

Or the ACLU, or the NAACP or Teddy or Skerry or the fill in the blank atheist organization?

They're all down in LA/MS/AL manning the volunteer efforts, aren't they? No? Well you just know they'll be the first ones to rush into Texas to help.

[Red Badger]

She's an OLDbat..........

[Gay State Conservative]

She's enlisting a National Guard platoon (or a battalion?)
to assist her in rescuing her belongings (including computers) from her fashionable Houston compound.

[YaYa123]

"The Congressional bonehead award goes to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) who, on a visit to JPL, asked if Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong! Quipped Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-MI) to the Washington Times: "We just don't teach enough science." Worse, Jackson Lee, who represents Houston, is a member of the House Science Committee's space subcommittee. Perhaps some committee reassignments are in order..."

[Piquaboy]

She thought that Manual Labor was a Mexican is the reason she is not helping.

[truthandlife]

I saw her this morning at the Mayor's press conference with Robert Eckels.

[funkywbr]

She's probably picking through the donated goods for the best stuff.

[Rebelbase]

she's right here: http://www.bloghouston.net/item/1863

[N. Theknow]

I thought she had a hairdo that looked like a brian sucking alien was on her head. Let me check an older photo of her.

checking

I was right. It was a brain sucking alien.

It died of starvation.

[tracer_bullet]

It sounds like she is an Oxygen-Deprived American.

[areafiftyone]

Isn't she one of the group along with McCain and Hillary who are licking Cindy Sheehan's boots this weekend while people of Texas are going to struggle with a hurricane?

[Hat-Trick]

If Hurricane Sha-nay-nay had wiped out NOLA, Mississippi, and Alabama, she'd be screaming racism.

[Spaghetti Man]

To paraphrase Foghorn Leghorn...., "that girl is so dumb, she thinks a Mexican border pays rent!"

[doug from upland]

MIDI - EVERYONE'S GONE TO THE MOON

As she is looking up at stars
She recalls men have walked on Mars
No one more stupid will you see
Let us mock Ms. Jackson Lee

In her the Dems must feel pride
She has a mouth that's big and wide
No one more stupid will you see
Let us mock Ms. Jackson Lee

She's an airhead whose in her prime
When born dumb, it's for all time

What foolish thing will she next say
Come on please, Sheila, make my day
No one more stupid will you see
Let us mock Ms. Jackson Lee
Let us mock Ms. Jackson Lee
Let us mock Ms. Jackson Lee

[FreePaul]

...well publicized episode in which she asked NASA scientists if the Mars Pathfinder robot probe had photographed the location of the 1969 Moon Landing...

It died of starvation.

I love that comment. I guess it got what it deserved for not doing any research.

[TexasTaysor]

Perhaps conscious of Houston's preference for homegrown politicians, Lee plays down the fact that she was born in the Jamaica section of Queens, and that her grandparents on her father's side are Jamaican immigrants. In fact, when she first ran for office, the candidate profile submitted to the Houston Chronicle listed her birthplace as Houston.

She's a lib, she lies and is dumb as a rock

[TNCMAXQ]

I guess she also thinks the space shuttle goes to the Moon.

Sheesh....

[Tennessee_Bob]

She's walking around in downtown Libby, Montana, trying to figure out where Rita is going to be coming ashore.

[mass55th]

Is she still violating House rules by getting limo rides back and forth from her apartment to the Capitol, which is just one block away?

By the way, found this at the following link: blog.Houston.net

"Like clockwork

Guess what useless D.C. politician is posing for photos at the morning press conference of our can-do hurricane-management leaders Mayor White and Judge Eckels?

Yes, that would be Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee.

One wonders what took her so long, although perhaps she waited until the first day that national media was likely to pick up the press conferences of our local hurricane management team.

The contrast between our local can-do political leadership and the Queen making her usual mad dash for the camera couldn't be greater."

[Kenton]

Out taking her pick of the best stuff from the emergency relief supplies?

[TexasTaysor]

“All racial groups should be represented,” said Rep. Lee

Of all things to be "offended" over.....this woman is so dumb. What the heck difference does it make what a storm is named. Frankly, I would prefer more blacks be named good ole American names, where did "African-American" names come from anyway? Personally, I like unusual names, but I worry that people who are biased (especially businesses) may judge people with "African-American" names because of their names.

[padfoot_lover]

She's on with the Houston mayor now!

[Kenton]

Rep. Lee, adding that she hoped that the weather establishment in future “would try to be inclusive of African American names” such as “Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn.”

Since the NWB seems to be running out of names for storms, maybe this isn't a bad idea.

When you just make up funny-sounding names out of nowhere, you have a virtually endless number of names to use, after all.

[dead]

[dfwgator]

And you know if they had given the hurricanes African-American names, they would whine about the fact that it is racist to name Hurricans after African-Americans, as if African-Americans were responsible.

I suggest if they want to use African names for Hurricanes, start with Amin, Mugabe, Mobotu or Bokassa.

[RummyChick]

It looks like she is at the press conference right now on Fox.

[KosmicKitty]

Yep, we can relax now

Old Steering Wheel head is accounted for - she'll keep Rita away
