Looks like there’s more dirt associated with Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX):  one of the town hall attendees privileged to ask a question (one not ignored in favor of a cell phone ^[1], that is), was apparently a plant, or at least a poser. Roxana Mayer (who happens to have been a Texas delegate for Obama) passed herself off as a doctor at the meeting, when in fact she was nothing but a student (and not a medical student either).

The Patterico’s Pontifications blog did quite a bit of research digging up her identity ^[2]and even got confirmation by email from her apparent email address (see the various links on that site; this has been an ongoing post for some time on that blog).

Of course, Sheila Jackson Lee denies any knowledge of this, but I find it hard to believe, considering her colorful history as a congresswoman. The congresswoman who cried wolf…

Regardless, Patterico has more juicy details associated with Mayer’s attendance ^[3]:

I don’t know if Jackson Lee had anything to do with Mayer’s attendance. But I do know that Mayer was invited to the event by a radical Obama supporter who ran an Obama campaign office that sported a picture of Che Guevara.

Mayer yesterday told me that she was invited to the town hall meeting by a listserv message sent by Maria Isabel, who ran an Obama campaign office sporting a Che Guevara flag…

 To add to the intrigue, Hot Air yesterday revealed ^[4] that Mayer was an organizer for Obama’s Organizing for America ^[5]. So you have two Obama activists sitting in the front together, one of whom invited the other via a listserv [and the two of whom are Facebook friends]. One is a Che Guevara fan and the other lies about being a doctor.
