Run for your lives, but don’t take a plane, boat, train or car:
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee was tapped Thursday as chairwoman of a powerful House subcommittee responsible for overseeing the security of the nation’s transportation and critical infrastructure sectors.
As head of the House Homeland Security Committee’s Transportation Security and Infrastructure Protection subcommittee, the Houston Democrat will have authority to assess and oversee government efforts to protect the nation’s airports, seaports, rail lines and highways.
Jackson Lee will also have oversight over the Transportation Security Administration and the security of critical infrastructure such as hospitals, and chemical and power plants.
Her Royal Highness issued the following statement:
“I am extremely excited,” she said.
We here at Lone Star Times look forward to Sheila bringing her razor-sharp intellect, her unyielding integrity and her brilliant command of English to this committee.

It is so refreshing to have someone with intellect, reason and compassion heading up such an important committee. I think the traffic problems in Houston will soon be but memory.
What a waste of skin.
This is a return of the horse and buggy era. She is truly an example of outcome based education.
WE WANT FISH!!! WE WANT FISH!!!
I feel soooooo much safer now…
When did we land people on Mars?
Hmm, no similarly important committee assignment for Nick Lampson?
I guess Dem leaders don’t think much of his re-election chances.
She is a waste of a human being.
She is a wasted third grade education
she is usless as tits on a bull
but you gotta admitt, she is colorful.
More TSA jobs for the boyz and ho’s from the hood.
“I am extremely excited,” she said.
“And I be axing for yo confidence in me.”
Metro sets its toy train sites on the Moon or Mars or somewhere out there - SJL guarantees funding. Too bad Queen Shelley’s not there to endorse her.
You get what you voted for. That’s right most you conservative didn’t vote. You preferred 2 years of Sheila than the status quo. Deal with it!

Don’t be a bigger dunce than sjl.
If every Conservative in the 18th district would have voted against her she would have been elected.
You & I both know who voted her into and has continually supported her re-election’s.

I see that the democrats are highly concerned about the safety of our transportation industry.

make that hos instead of “ho’s”. Anything resembling an attempt to correctly spell and use proper grammer is frowned on by certain groups.

Lets be consistent. Make that axin instead of “axing”.

God help us… I still remember when this fine upstanding public servant was caught red-handed tearing down her opponents campaign signs.. Such a class act…
At first, I was hoping this was just Matt’s idea of a sick joke. Alas, it is not only a sick joke, but true. . .
I wonder what the country would think of her if a major expressway bridge (which carrys 250K+ vehicles/day), situated four blocks from her Houston Congressional office, were to collapse as a result of stray current corrosion onto the boondoggle METRO “transit backbone” tram that she supported.
I wonder if somehow Queen Sheila can get TV cameras and their use to fall under her committee assignment. Then she would be in heaven. Well, at least, head of the committee makes her stupidity stick out more but her stupidity has always stuck out. Let her show the country what a true Dimwit can do!!!!
She needs to take a hike on the highway somewhere and see if she would get picked up. Who put her in charge?
Down with the Dimbocrats and their committee assigments.
Regrettably, #12 Jose is correct. Republicans turned their backs on the voters, and voters chose not to re-elect backstabbers. This gave the Dems the power to appoint committee chairmen.
At least we will have something to laugh at with Queen Sheila.
Sheila lives in a dumbocrat district, every republican could vote and she would still win. But she will remain irrelevent with her lower intellegence level.
Let’s see if Queen Sheila can distinguish between “trains, planes and automobiles”. We ought to take a pot on how long it will take Queen Sheila to make a fool out of herself with some outlandish statement or misidentification.

I give it one day. If I lose, you get a pigmy goat, a quaker parrot, or a dumb lab….
Wonder what Barbara Jordan would think of Shiela Jackson Lee?
