Several decades worth of coverage of Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee suggests she's behaved badly on planes and on automobiles before this week's incident.
The latest airplane drama came this week when a United Airlines passenger said she was booted from her first class seat to accommodate the Texas Democrat, who shot back by saying the only reason the woman complained was because Jackson Lee is black.
But previous reports show the House member, who was elected in 1994, has had a history of transportation drama, including berating flight attendants on first class flights and making her Congressional staff drive her one block, while waiting on her for hours and disrupting traffic.
She's been documented calling her employees 'you stupid motherf***er,' while referring to herself as Congressional royalty.
'You don't understand. I am a queen, and I demand to be treated like a queen,' she was quoted saying in 1998, three years into her nearly 23-year tenure on Capitol Hil.

Poster Comment:
Sheila Jackass Lee, Maxine Waters, Whoopie Goldfart! With representatives like these the entire negro race has been relegated to the back of the bus! Racism be damned! These are extremely ugly (inside and out) people!
These are typical actions of this homely fat-assed congresswoman...another congressman who flies this same flight, says Jackson regularly pulls the "race card", or "do you know who I am?" in demanding preferential treatment.
Continental Airlines CEO, before their merge with United, personally called Jackson telling her to "Quit abusing our employees, or you will be banned from our airlines!"...it's time UNITED NEEDS TO DO THE SAME! NO WONDER WE HAVE RACIAL DIVIDE IN AMERICA WITH PEOPLE LIKE JACKSON, ET AL, IN IT!
