Her "constituents" will just elect someone even worse.

I have no compunctions about wishing a painful, lingering death on this leftist traitor. I say this knowing I will sleep like a baby without a single shred of remorse for the saying of it.

If cancer wins before November, her last professional memory will be losing the Houston mayor primary by 29%.

A) That’s hilarious.

B) Christians do not get to rejoice in the suffering of others. “Love your enemies” and all that.

I reckon I will just stick with "If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat; And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink; For so you will heap coals of fire on his head, And the LORD will reward you."

That sounds like a win-win proposition!

One can’t help but wonder if the space between her ears is made up mostly of gasses.

Yes. For example - Craig Washington (i.e. the guy who preceded SJL). The Demonrats primaried his lazy ass after the news started reporting statistics on absentee Congressional Critters and he was top of the slackers.

Of course that was a different era when there was actual journalism and the mainstream press would actually report when Demonrat Congressional Critters were an empty seat.

I have never wished for the death of another person. But I am guilty of reading an obituary with a certain amount of glee.

To be honest, I like lazy. Lazy isn't optimal, but lazy congress people don't have the initiative to introduce things like gun bans and other things that restrict our freedom.

It's the crazy's with a lot of energy who introduce freedom restrictive bills and team with groups like the "Mom's Demand Action" that you have to worry about.

Staffing issues

In 1998, The Houston Press reported that five of Jackson Lee's staffers had quit that spring. The paper quoted Lee's former Capitol office executive assistant and events scheduler, Rhiannon Burruss, as saying that "the congresswoman's abrasive ways not only drove off staff members but irritated Continental Airlines staffers to the point where one suggested she fly on a competitor instead."

In 2011, Jackson Lee was reported to have one of the highest staff turnover rates in Congress. The Huffington Post and the Houston Chronicle reported that she had gone through 11 chiefs of staff in the course of 11 years. A 2013 report concluded that "the veteran Texas Democrat had the highest turnover rate for all of Congress over the [previous] decade." Washingtonian magazine named Jackson Lee as the "meanest Democratic Congress member" in both 2014 and 2017. In 2018, LegiStorm reported that Jackson Lee's annual turnover rate, at 62%, was the highest in Congress.

In 2023, during her Houston mayoral run, an unverified audio leaked of Jackson Lee berating her staffers with profanity. The recording was about a minute and half in length, where Jackson Lee allegedly tells a staffer she wants him to have a "fuckin' brain" and that "nobody knows a Goddamn thing in my office – nothing.” She then describes a different staffer as a "fat-ass stupid idiot" and that both of them are "fuck-ups" and that they are "two Goddamn big-ass children, fuckin’ idiots who serve no Goddamn purpose." Her mayoral campaign refused to verify the authenticity of the recording and alleged that "these attacks have originated from extremely conservative blogs and political operatives backing John Whitmire." Whitmire's campaign stated they had no involvement with the recording. Jackson Lee responded to the release of the recording by saying, "I am regretful and hope you will judge me not by something trotted out by a political opponent... but from what I’ve delivered to Houstonians over my years of public service" and said that "everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and that includes my own staff."

Someone here has a signature line: "Never marry a woman who isn't nice to your waitress."



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
