JLWM8609 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I hope somebody goes up to the mic and asks if her cell phone is turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I wonder if she can top Barney Franks fun remarks especially to the Nazi-name calling lady. I highly doubt it. Whatever said about her and there is a lot of negativity about her on Houston's AM talk radio circuit, I still think is a fair politician. I don't see her in the Delay corruption catagory. I went to the 2004 Anti Iraq war gathering in downtown and she was there before it was cool to be anti-Iraq war.Having said that, I cannot go that day, but hopefully a meaningful discussion on healthcare can take place without the "fear-facts" spread around these days, and the Heights can show rest of Houston and the nation on how a townhall can be progressive.

Maybe she could answer a question with any kind of specifics this time. I highly doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is a hyper-partisan and does not care about any dissent from her subjects. She is easily the dumbest member of the House and a constant embarrassment to Houston and Texas.

kylejack Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 <br />Could this be a reflection of who votes for her?<br />77% of her district, a wide cross-section that's who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gto250us Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 77% of her district, a wide cross-section that's who.It is no secret of what kind of human she is. Thus I would assume that the folks who vote her into office condone that type of behavior.It is the same type of collective mentality that kept voting Marion Berry into office.

Heights CPA Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 77% of her district, a wide cross-section that's who.Sheila Jackson Lee represents one of the most heavily Democratic areas in the state, covering several largely poor and African-American areas of Houston (including downtown Houston) and whose three previous representatives (Barbara Jordan, Mickey Leland, and Craig Washington) were all African-Americans and took staunch liberal stances.In short, 75% of the people would vote for a democrat even if they were convicted of numerous felonies right before early voting began.
