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, 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 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:

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 that Mayer was an organizer for Obama’s Organizing for America. 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.

You absolutely have to see this to believe it. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) is chatting on her cell phone in the middle of a divorced, cancer-survivor constituent asking her a question at a town hall meeting!

You can actually hear some of the other people there telling the questioner, “she’s not even listening”… “what’s the point”… “seriously, I mean, come on”…

Oh, I hope people remember this on Election Day!

Granted, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was most definitely doing it for political reasons, but, even so, it was nice to see some intelligent words coming out of her mouth for a change when she said that lawmakers are free to use House speeches “to express [regarding Michael Jackson] their sympathy or their praise any time that they wish… I don’t think it’s necessary for us to have a resolution.”

It also goes to show just how much Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) has to offer our country when her most pressing issue these days is to get a resolution passed in Congress virtually recognizing Michael Jackson as a demigod.
