Sheila Jackson Lee Plays Race Card: Congress Is Challenging Obama On Debt Ceiling Because He Is Black (Video)

Video - Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) - July 15, 2011

Sheila Jackson Lee on Friday said that members of Congress are making it difficult for President Obama to raise the debt ceiling because of his race.  She apparently forgot that Obama voted against Bush's attempt to raise the debt ceiling in 2006.

Sheila, in case you're interested, this is racism.  And especially this.

"I do not understand what I think is the maligning and maliciousness [toward] this president,” said Jackson Lee, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus. “Why is he different? And in my community, that is the question that we raise. In the minority community that is question that is being raised. Why is this president being treated so disrespectfully? Why has the debt limit been raised 60 times? Why did the leader of the Senate continually talk about his job is to bring the president down to make sure he is unelected?”

"I am particularly sensitive to the fact that only this president — only this one, only this one — has received the kind of attacks and disagreement and inability to work, only this one."

"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?"

Obama gets "challenged" not because he's black. Actually, the Obama is more 'creamed coffee' in skin tone. His skin tone is irrelevant. Obama is challenged because he's a liar. Because Obama is out of his freaking mind to enslave this nation with more debt. Madam S.J. Lee is sucking wind on this one. Oh yeah and because the Obama is a bald-faced lying asshat, he deserves no more respect than G. Bush.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- House lawmakers on Tuesday approved a Republican bill that would raise the U.S. debt limit by $2.4 trillion on condition that both chambers of Congress pass a balanced budget amendment and make deep spending cuts next year. President Barack Obama has threatened to veto the bill and it has little chance of passage in the Democratic-controlled Senate. The vote was 234-190.

Don't forget, this inpostor is also white! Half and Half.

[Political Athiest]

Can someone in TX PLEASE explain to me how this fricking IDIOT continues to hold her job? The same state that has Ron Paul continues to employ this MORON?! WTF, Texas.

[Texas Gal]

She stays in office because the majority in her district is black! Go figure.

Most bothersome to me is that this woman separates herself by her "community", is there not one white or or other race in her district? It's doubtful her district is a strictly black enclave so from her approach they do not matter, it's kind of sad that non-black American citizens in her district do not have a voice in the Congress. Non-black citizens and business owners should take the hint they aren't wanted and leave, I wonder what that would do to the tax base in her "community"? It's long past the time that Obama was judged by his color, that was accepted but his handling of the nation's business is how we now judge him and if Rep. Jackson-Lee hasn't noticed, we are on the verge of an historic disaster. If anything, his floundering and her race-baiting has set back what she hopes to gain, legitimate black inclusion in governing the nation.

has received the kind of attacks and disagreement and inability to work, only this one."

I half to wonder if this "Bimbo" ever thought about for the first time in Histroy we dont have a Persident in office. We have a "Lyer", Cheater", "Steeler", "Fake", "Imposter".............
