Sheila Jackson Lee’s solution to the debt ceiling standoff today is to play the race card. While the president declared today that 80% of the people want their taxes raised, he has yet to provide the leadership necessary to overcome what may be the most important crisis our nation has ever faced. Lies and race baiting will not solve this crisis and time is critical: if our credit rating is lowered, we will not be able to service the interest on our national debt. Ms. Lee does not understand an essential fact concerning the relationship between Americans and the president. We have no problem with his race, we have a problem with his incompetence in every aspect of his administration.
I have included some videos of this “representative” from Texas who can only be described as a national disgrace.
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D.-Texas) likened “Christian militants” to Islamic radicals in a hearing of the House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, suggesting they posed a comparable threat to the rule of law in the United States.

Dem Congresswoman Brings Obama’s Race Into Debt Ceiling Fight
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) used the race card this afternoon to assess blame in the debt ceiling fight. Jackson Lee, a black Congresswoman, believes the disagreement over raising the debt ceiling is because of President Obama’s race.
“I am particularly sensitive to the fact that only this president, only this president, only this one has received the kind attacks and disagreements and inability to work. Only this one,” Jackson Lee said on the House floor this afternoon.
“Read between the lines.”
“What is different about this president that should put him in a position that he should not receive the same kind of respectful treatment of when it is necessary to raise the debt limit in order to pay our bills, something required by both statute and the 14th amendment?”
