One of the more flamboyant and interesting members of Congress is none other than Shelia Jackson Lee who seems to have quite a problem with basic facts and has been know to say some of the most outlandish things for an elected official (she still thinks there is a North and South Vietnam even though there hasn't been since 1976). And just last week while pushing for more gun control legislation on the House floor, Ms. Jackson-Lee said this doosey of a line,
“Don’t condemn the gangbangers, they’ve got guns that are trafficked - that are not enforced, that are straw purchased and they come into places even that have strong gun laws." and the clincher, “Why? Because we don’t have sensible gun legislation.”
So we are supposed to go easy on the gangbanger thugs because they somehow were what, forced to use trafficked guns, and if we only had sensible gun legislation apparently these criminal elements would no longer seek out weapons to assist them in their law breaking? Did Ms Jackdon-Lee ever stop to think that maybe it is the gangbangers themselves who are the ones trafficking the guns?
You have to ask yourself, how did this woman ever get elected to Congress?
From an article in the daily caller:
ReplyDelete“We would sit around and try to analyze why she was so miserable,” a former staffer said, “We all kind of felt bad for her. She was such a lonely, miserable person. And it must suck to work on Capitol Hill and have all of your colleagues hate you, right?”

She's a "special" kind of stupid.
ReplyDeleteI'm ashamed that Texans (outside of Austin, the liberal hangout) elected her.
I guess her mother never got the chance to beat the stupid out of her.
What's next? Will she tell us "Don't blame Al'Qaeda, they're forced to use trafficked explosives..."
