Just two weeks after Janet Napolitano announced her resignation as Secretary of Homeland Security, the Congressional Black Caucus has suggested Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Houston fill her spot.

A letter dated July 25 and signed by Rep. Marcia Fudge, Ohio Democrat and caucus chairwoman, urges President Obama to consider Miss Jackson Lee for the position, calling the Democrat a “voice of reason” that the agency could stand to gain, the Houston Chronicle reported. “Representative Jackson Lee would serve as an effective DHS Secretary because she understands the importance of increasing border security and maintaining homeland security,” the letter reads. Mrs. Jackson Lee currently serves as a ranking member of the Homeland Security Subcommittee on Border and Maritime Security, a position that the caucus said she “stands as a strong and honest ‘voice of reason.’”

This is not a joke!

[Dr. Ursus]

I’ll have two fried chickens and a coke and deliver them to
Homeland Security!

[Farmer Dean]

So how does a woman with 29 cents worth of brains rise to a high position in government?Affirmative action and the CBC.

[Youngman542012]

It sure is a joke....a bad one

[RedMDer]

We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.

Barack Obama

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Well come on, she does have a race card.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Not the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (which is still obsessed with enforcing their “two Gordon Lightfoot records per hour” minimum).

[Hotlanta Mike]

And how about Maxine Waters for Fed Chairman?

[LostInBayport]

Aside from being a moron and a foghorn, this woman has serious mental issues. Not that Uncle Janet was any prize.

Well, you know that Obama will appoint another left wing nutcase with no qualifications or expertise for the job. Might as well be Lee.

[Yosemitest]

Let us NEVER FORGET the IDIOT Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) asking the staff of the Johnson Space Center in Houston about the Mars Rover:

"Is it gonna go to where the astronauts planted the flag?"

What a glowing example of the wisdom from the African-American Race.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Leave it to the CBC to select the most stupid person in Congress.

[Vaduz]

But this is Congressional Black Caucus.

[lormand]

The CBC should not be recognized by anyone.

[blam]

Heaven help us.

She'll want Cynthia McKinney as her assistant, no doubt.

We already have too many anti-Americans in the government.

[MplsSteve]

“...(which is still obsessed with enforcing their “two Gordon Lightfoot records per hour” minimum).”

LOL!

[Farmer Dean]

Now there’s an idea that makes me hope I get abducted by aliens.

[Doogle]

[pgkdan]

This is not a joke!

Still funny as hell! That woman's dumber than a box of rocks!

[ConservativeMan55]

Her picture makes my eyes bleed.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Obama will appoint her because he appoints those he thinks will do the most damage to the country. Matter of fact I will bet on it.

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Not worth commenting on!!! The Obamabots, Inc. have dumbed down our great nation, big time!!! It’s so much a laughing matter, you have to cry!!! Lunacy of the CBC!!!

[Huaynero]

YGTBSM! On the other hand, though ostensibly a Texan, at least she doesn’t wear cowboy hats on the House floor. But who changes the pomade in her hair...better still HOW?

[Old Sarge]

What a glowing example of the wisdom from the African-American Race.

[Doogle]

"....look at dat shiny tang"

[EEGator]

Did we get the KKK’s recommendation as well?

[alloysteel]

Did the Congressional Black Caucus make this offer just so Obama could point and laugh at the CBC? The CBC takes orders from Obama, not the other way around.

Somebody mentioned that making Rachel Jeantel the nominee would be a better choice. Far more brainpower, for one thing. And less radical thinking, with maybe a more graceful public aspect.

[mortal19440]

Is she still treating her Staff like personal Servants? There was a TV special years ago talking about her ignoring House rules and misusing her Staff.

[RoosterRedux]

Now that we have John Brennan as DCI, perhaps we should install Keith Ellison at Homeland Security.

[EEGator]

"I beg to differ."

[Old Sarge]

And the ONLY potential successor to the last DHS Secretary...

a Leftist diesel-dyke...

is a foul-mouthed, bigoted ghetto queen.

It’ll fly through committee and pass on the Senate with 96-0.

[bigbob]

Make that 4 fried chickens, and have them delivered to her home address: MARS.

[Pollster1]

Skin color is not a job qualification. I’d have no problem with naming the best qualified candidate for that job, regardless of melanin levels, but that has as little to do with ability as eye color does. Only a racist would use that trivial detail as the primary determinant.

[Truth2012]

LOL :)

[Huskrrrr]

[albie]

Sheila Jackson Lee: Who you calling ugly, sucker?

Fred Sanford: I’m calling you ugly, I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies.

[chris37]

If anyone can sniff out Tea Party plots, it's Sheena!

[albie]

Wow! Looking at that picture of her front and back is a great way to lose weight. I have completely lost my appetite.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Okay, second most stupid.

[ShadowAce]

This could actually be a good thing.

First, it gets an idiot out of Congress, and Houston another chance to elect someone who actually has two brain cells to rub together.

But the real kicker is this--She's so much of an idiot that DHS would flounder and become totally ineffective with her "leading" it. We could actually gain some freedoms back.

The other side of that coin is that DHS would try to become a totalitarian police force out to destroy not only her personal enemies, but anyone she may see as a threat--which would be everyone.

So--it's a coin flip.

[PLD]

Shows me that the Black in Washington will back anyone as long as they are ignorant black..This retarded woman makes the black race look ignorant but we know they are not all like this..just the blacks that keep voting this moron into office..

[fella]

The CBC is a racist organization and is worse than the KKK because it oppresses the very people it claims to support.

[LostInBayport]

The link I posted was from 2011, and I really doubt Sheila has mellowed since then!

[Senator_Blutarski]

I'm in favor of this. Let's give America a chance to get to know one of the CBC's best and brightest. Let's play clips of her memorable quotes. Let's put her out in front of the cameras every day.

Homeland Security is joke. Let's expose Homeland Security, Ms. Lee and CBC all in one stroke.

[autumnraine]

I think I am living in a nightmare with this administration. Every freaking day. At this point, I cannot see how there are not demonic forces involved in this government. And that includes Congress, Republicans included.

[Farmer Dean]

If Buckwheat had a daughter......

[2001convSVT]

Well said, Let her be the Face of Obama, she will put her foot in her mouth so much there will be no doubt about the incompetency of this administration.

[Farmer Dean]

Obama wants her close.Keeps the flies off him.

[wafflehouse]

Leave it to the CBC to select the most stupid person in Congress.

and how did you figure that? they all ride the same short bus

[Iron Munro]

Why not consider “Symphia” McKinney too?
