In a town hall meeting yesterday in Houston, TX, US Representative Sheila Jackson Lee took a phone call during her town hall meeting while a woman who has cancer was asking the Congresswoman a health-related question. You have to see the video to believe it. Why do people continue to vote for US Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee? As a black man, I am disgusted that this representative did this and that is why many of the stereotypes about black people are continuing to be perpetuated. Too many black people doing too much dumb stuff.

That's just straight up disrespectful. Somebody's trying to ask her about a serious concern, and she's on the phone making lunch arrangements. It's disappointing. They better let her know whats up. That's not at all acceptable.

The craziest part is that she was on Greta Von Susteren's show justifying what she did. Absolutely ridiculous! Does anyone in Texas vote properly?
