It's not every day that Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee, a liberal Democrat from Texas, says "I agree with Sarah Palin."

She acknowledged the rarity in an interview with The Hill, but said she agrees that the Newsweek magazine cover with a photograph of Palin in running shorts is sexist.

"I've never seen Governor Palin dressed in that kind of attire at a political event," Jackson-Lee said. "What is the necessity of highlighting that picture among the thousands that have been taken of her?"

“What is the necessity of highlighting that picture among the thousands that have been taken of her?”

Because she has the best legs of any politician ever pictured?

She just likes that picture because she finally got to see where those astronauts left the flag.

I’m amazed that Jackson-Lee was even able to cobble those sentences together. She may not be correct as frequently as a broken clock, but wow. Way to go Sheila.

Hey Sheila, did you come out of a coma? THAT is YOUR party. The party of personal destruction that Billy Jeff spoke of during his reign. Why are you now shocked by this?????
