Sheila Jackson Lee Spouts Off

Yesterday, Congressman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX), dissed a constituent who had cancer at a Town Hall meeting. Ms. Lee, who has a tendency to refer to herself in the third person, was fielding questions at the meeting when a woman named Tracy started asking a question. As she was asking the question, Ms. Lee began carrying on a conversation on her cell phone.

Given the chance to explain, Ms. Lee came up with several explanations in just a few minutes ...

"I can multi-task; I wasn't talking on the phone, I was listening to a help-line; That video is doctored, it never happened; I wasn't rude; I was engaged and paying attention..." and on and on.

Is it any wonder Americans are angry?

  1. Options:

    Ms Lee was:

    * Speaking to her mother.
    * Speaking to her bookie.
    * Speaking to her political advisor.
    * Ordering a pizza

    Instead of listening to her constituent.

  3. I ran out of gas!

    I was late for work!

    I needed clean drawers!

    My dog ate my homework!

    Sheila Jackson Lee is a joke. Just like the FAUXTUS. Another empty coconut-head.
