CBC recommends Sheila Jackson Lee for DHS

Yes, you read that right, the Congressional Black Caucus has recommended Sheila Jackson Lee to the President to fill the gap that will be left when Janet Napolitano leaves her post as the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, according to an article sent to us by ROS from the Washington Times;

A letter dated July 25 and signed by Rep. Marcia Fudge, Ohio Democrat and caucus chairwoman, urges President Obama to consider Miss Jackson Lee for the position, calling the Democrat a “voice of reason” that the agency could stand to gain, the Houston Chronicle reported.

“Representative Jackson Lee would serve as an effective DHS Secretary because she understands the importance of increasing border security and maintaining homeland security,” the letter reads.

Yeah, because she thought her home planet, Mars, was where the Apollo mission left a flag, so she knows a lot about geography and borders and stuff. I think she complained because there weren’t any hurricanes with names of African-American women. Whatever that means. So she really has the important issues at the top of her agenda.

Personally, I learned while living in DC, if a woman spent more time on her hair than she did in the gym, there’s some drama coming.

By the way, the above photo is an actual TAH file photo. I took it when the IVAW was trying to convince Congress to defund the war in Iraq in 2008 – she was one of their greatest defenders, so yeah, she knows all about homeland security.
