Always the smartest person in the room .... Sheila Jackson Lee

[Stinky The Clown]

She **never** fails to impress me. She **never** fails to have total control of the facts of any case she argues. She **never** fails to exercise the exactly correct amount of gravitas.

I'm grateful she's on our side.

She was just on Hairballz, up against that fat, stupid, thuggish Chris Cannon. No contest whatever. The genius versus the clod.

How poetically appropriate that she has Barbara Jordan's seat.

A longtime favorite of mine who has graciously held her ground in every discussion I've had the pleasure to see her engage in.

the first thing I thought of was that she seemed to be channeling the spirit of the great Barbara Jordan.

13. Four People have held that Congressional Seat.

Barbara Jordan, Mickey Leland, Craig Washington, and Sheila Jackson Lee.

They are all brilliant.

Craig Washington is one of the most brilliant trial lawyers I have ever seen and he is still alive. Mickey was brilliant too and I met him a couple of times. And Barbara was the voice of God; no question about it.
