A Little Quiz for Sheila Jackson-Lee
Oh, so it’s going to be like this? Well, okay then.
Professional idiot Sheila Jackson-Lee, who holds the distinction as the only Member of Congress so far as I know whose IQ is lower than the number of the district she represents, sat proudly at an NAACP panel Sunday and accused hundreds of thousands of average Americans of being Klansmen. Here is what she had to say.
Representative Sheila Jackson Lee: ….And I thank you professor very much. I’m going to be engaging you with those very powerful numbers that you have offered on what the tea party recognizes, uh, or is recognized as. Might I add my own P.S.? All those who wore sheets a long time ago have now lifted them off and started wearing [applause], uh, clothing, uh, with a name, say, I am part of the tea party. Don’t you be fooled. [voices: "That's right.", applause] Those who used to wear sheets are now being able to walk down the aisle and speak as a patriot because you will not speak loudly about the lack of integrity of this movement.
Mmm. Hmm.
Look, I’m not going to spend a lot of time curb-stomping Jackson-Lee’s ridiculous claim. What I will do is offer Ms. Jackson-Lee a little quiz. You can play along, too. Ready? Here we go.
Question 1: Of the two parties, Democratic and Tea, which one had has a member rise to (ahem) Exalted ranks in both the Klan and the party’s leadership?
Question 2: Of the two parties mentioned in Question 1, which had a prominent leader publicly oppose civil rights?
Question 3: Again, of the same two parties, which had a former President of the United States try feebly to explain away that member’s long years as a leader of and recruiter for the Klan as a “fleeting” association.
Question 4: Same parties as before. Which has successfully resisted a concerted effort by the other party to seed its events with people play-acting as racists to such a degree that even CNN noticed?
How’d you do? Pretty well, I’d expect. Don’t worry if you don’t see Ms. Jackson-Lee for a little while and please don’t discuss the answers too loudly. Ms. Jackson-Lee won’t be ready to take my quiz for a while. It takes her some time to figure out which end of the pencil does the writing.
UPDATE: Oh. My. God. She really thinks that there is a North and South Vietnam today and that they coexist side by side in peace?

Another question for your list. Which party had a klansman (Hugo Black) serve as a U.S. senator and then a president (FDR) from that party appointed the klansman (Hugo Black) to the U.S. Supreme Court?
I may have to offer that as an extra-credit question.
What party STARTED the KKK?
Which of the two parties has a history of lynchings at their rallies?

The same party that is the answer to all the questions then rose in unison recently to honor their unrepentent comrade as the "Conscience of the Sentate" and by resting in the Rotunda.
I am a former member of that Party who proudly proclaims, "Never again".
By-the-way, I'm new to this site and didn't choose that icon. Who did?
Also, Sheila's counterpart in the Senate is Barbara Boxer. They could start a "Stupid Club" if they had two brain cells between them.
I use Gravatars on the site, else there's a boring blank grey box. You can, if you like, choose your own avatar at the Gravatars site but if you don't, you pretty much get a random one. It's not a commentary on your at all, I assure you.
When NASA showed some congress critters photos of the surface of Mars our girl wondered if they could direct the Rover to take some pix of the little buggy the astronauts rode around in.
