Democrat Congresswoman Calls For Investigation Of ‘Christian Militants’
Christians are the real threat, not Islam
At a congressional hearing on Muslim radicalization in U.S. prisons, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) said that investigators needed to analyze Christian militants in America because they too might try to “bring down the country.”
In an exchange with witness Patrick Dunleavy, the former deputy inspector of the criminal intelligence unit, New York Department of Correctional Services, Rep. Jackson Lee mentioned the case of a man who blew up an abortion clinic and proposed that this perhaps was an attempt to undermine U.S. law that allows a woman to procure an abortion.
Rep. Lee then said, “As we look to be informational, we should include an analysis of how Christian militants or others might bring down the country. We have to look broadly, do we not?”
Dunleavy answered: “I don’t know that Christian militants have foreign country backing or foreign country financing.” Lee then said, “I don’t think that’s the issue. The issue is whether or not their intent is to undermine the laws of this nation. And I think it is clear that that is the case. So it’s not — your distinction is not answering the question.” source – CNS

What if Tim Tebow Were a Muslim?

Imagine for a second, the Denver Broncos quarterback is a devout follower of Islam, sincere and principled in his beliefs and thus bowed toward Mecca to celebrate touchdowns. Now imagine if Detroit Lions players Stephen Tulloch and Tony Scheffler mockingly bowed toward Mecca, too, after tackling him for a loss or scoring a touchdown, just like what happened Sunday.
CLAIM: Congresswoman Says Debt Ceiling Mess Is Because ‘Obama Is Black’
about 1 year ago - 26 comments
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Friday strongly suggested that members of Congress are making it difficult for President Obama to raise the debt ceiling because of his race. “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?”
Earlier in her speech, Jackson Lee said Obama has been targeted unlike any other president.

about 2 years ago - 1 comment
More than 60 Hamas and Jihad Islami mortar shells and missiles hit Israeli towns, villages and farms on the Israeli side of the Gaza border Friday April 8 and injured a civilian. This heightened Israeli fury over Hamas’s attack on a school bus Thursday, April 7, using a sophisticated Cornet anti-tank missile for the first time. A 16-year old boy was critically wounded. This attack was followed by 50 Palestinian rockets and mortar rounds, a blitz which had not abated by Friday night despite constant Israeli counteraction.

Palestinian militants in Gaza fired a new wave of rockets that landed deep inside Israel Thursday, defying Israeli retaliatory attacks and threats. As the violence threatened to escalate the day after a deadly Jerusalem bombing, Israel got a boost from the visiting U.S. defense chief, who said no country could tolerate the “repugnant” attacks on its soil.
Tunisia: Another Christian Dead At The Hands Of Islam
about 2 years ago - 4 comments
Less than one week ago, Father Marek Marius Rybinski was a thirty-four year old missionary going about his daily routine when his life was brutally taken in the school parking lot where he worked in the Tunis suburb of Manouba. He had multiple stab wounds and his throat was viciously slit. Tunisia, the first domino to fall in the so-called democracy uprising has self proclaimed itself to be the most ‘’tolerant’’ Muslim nation. If that is what they call tolerant than America has nothing to worry about!
Rand Paul Joins the Anti-Israel Clan in D.C.
about 2 years ago - 6 comments
At a time when America should be standing idly by Israel as she faces danger on all sides, American politicians never cease from joining the wrong side. They can now welcome Rand Paul. In 2010 Paul was extremely popular with the Tea Party movement and ran heavily on fiscal Conservatism. However, he has placed his fiscal conservatism in the worst spot possible as he called on America to quit giving aid to Israel.

Sheila Jackson Lee has proven over and over that she is probably the most ignorant person in all of Congress. All you have to do is Google her and you will see how many stupid comments she has made. My three year old grandson is smarter than she is!!

WOW!!, “I don’t think that’s the issue. The issue is whether or not their intent is to undermine the laws of this nation. And I think it is clear that that is the case. So it’s not — your distinction is not answering the question.” So, common sense has left the building on the Hill….

So in her way of thinking, someone who robs a liquor store is not only looking for money to buy drugs, but is also looking to undermine the laws our great nation. Great observation…dufuss. Sometimes there’s credibility in looking at the obvious.

Someone I know had a vision many years ago of the U.S. CRASHING VERY VIOLENTLY TO THE GROUND, and it WILL come to pass. There is no chance that it will not; HOWEVER, that doesn’t mean there cannot be soul-winning in the process: God brings disasters in order to cause repentance BEFORE the WRATH comes.

This is an American politician talking….to them up is down and down is up.Democrat or Republican it doesn’t matter because they all go along with sending manufacturing away and go along with the phony debt for the too big to fail want us to believe we owe and wasting money killing people in other countries that have never done anything to us.
Her statements are very telling.Pee Yew on her.

No, the Christians don’t want to bring this country down any further than it is. They want to bring it back up out of the gutters where the dems put it. What Sheila Jackson Lee is trying to prevent is her and those like her losing their seats, and that is the only way this country is going to survive. Boot their hind ends OUT. I know a lot of good black people that are God fearing Christians. I wonder what they must think of Miss Sheila.

Gee, I’m really surprised. Sheila Jackson probably wants to divert attention away the President’s pro Islam stance. This lady doesn’t realize that people of all colors love Jesus Christ. She must think that only white people are Christian. I think that it’s ridiculous to try and convince Americans that Christians are the great threat facing America. I would expect a comment like that from Ms. Jackson.

Normally, I am proud to tell people that I am from Texas. When this idiot is mentioned (and I have NEVER heard anything positive out of her) I am ashamed to be, in any way, associated with her.

This lady is nearly, though not quite, as ignorant as the Representative from Georgia who made the phenomenally stupid remark that his fear was that Guam would actually tip over due to the over population. Where on earth do they find these people. It is truly astonishing to me.
