Sheila Jackson Lee is on the warpath. She’s not pissed off about the deficit nor about our national bumbling during the Egyptian crisis nor about our porous border nor about any of the other issues she should be pissed off about. No, she’s pissed off about one of Pepsi’s Super Bowl commercials.
In fact, she’s so pissed that she took to the floor of the Unites States House of Representatives to excoriate Pepsi.

It’s a commercial, Sheila. It’s a commercial for fizzy sugar water. It has nothing to do with selling good nutrition. That commercial would star Michelle Obama.
Of course, as we always feel obligated to point out in every Sheila Jackson Lee story, this is the woman who once asked a NASA administrator if a Mars rover would be able to take a photo of the American flag that Neil Armstrong planted.
Genius. Pure, unadultered genius.
By the way, here’s the Pepsi commercial that has Jackson Lee’s panties in a wad.
(God, that’s a horrible image. We apologize.)
