As a 1%er who also mile high clubbed Mrs. Lee (I call her LaLa), I take a similar stance against academical referensationalism, and instead, take the higher road of condescension and inferiority complexation.
It means she is intelligent, and your own sexist bigotry precludes you from accepting supporting evidence. Very good chance she got into politics because, like you, the racist dickheads running law firms back then couldn't see past her race or gender, probably wouldn't give her a second glance. Just a bunch of conservative, Southern white guys uncomfortable with an educated, assertive black woman; looking for every individual verbal gaffe to reinforce an entire life's worth of backwards, ****ty racial and gender bias. Same in every corporate office in America (especially in the energy industry). Dumb, unnecessary bigoted thread.
I've never met the woman and I don't know much about her except for the gaffes that I've heard repeated here and other places. Maybe she is quite intelligent. However, you are absolutely wrong in claiming that she is certainly intelligent just because she went to Yale.
Please don't try to bring gender into this or pretend you care about that. It's fairly obvious that you only care about her race.
Actually in a thread with all male posters, and with one of them having referred to her as b****, gender is a fairly obvious compounding bias. But assuming that a black poster can't conceive or sincerely avow that is just more predictable, dumb, racist garbage from you.
So if you think she is a bad representative or you think she has selfish motives, that makes you sexist and racist? Such great analysis. I know people who have worked in the Democratic Party in Houston who absolutely hate her. Why? Because she does not care about anything other than standing in the spotlight for her own self aggrandizement. It should be about serving her constituents...but it isn't.
being a bad representative doesn't mean she is an idiot. Your hardcore evangelical christian representatives have an almost monopoly on actual below average intelligence representatives such as Louie Gohmert.
or Georgia Rep. Paul Broun who states that evolution and the Big Bang Theory were "lies straight from the pit of hell." But of course you will never have people like bigtexxx call out these reps as idiots...
That particular data-set hasn't been submitted for analysis in the "dumb black b****" thread, but nice deflection.
Were these facebook/chain email thingies? 99 percent of the time, they're complete bull****. still waiting for my check from bill gates to forward some emails. I think I swear I saw SJL on the freeway one time. She has vanity plates, and an older SUV. Anyone can confirm?
