Members of a conservative Fox News reports that, “the King Street Patriots, who have ties to Tea Party activists, have dispatched volunteers of 36 of the 37 voting precincts in Harris County to monitor the crucial midterm elections on Tuesday that are expected to return Republicans to power in the House, MyFoxHouston.com reported.” Meanwhile, the New Black Panther Party plans to monitor the Patriots after Catherine Engelbrecht, the Patriot’s leader, was captured on video warning poll watchers about Black Panther members in The leader of the Panthers in According to Fox, “Jackson Lee called for the Justice Department to investigate incidents of voter intimidation and send poll monitors to Rep. Jackson Lee alleges that there have been a minimum of 15 reports of voting rights abuses in She said in a written statement that, “many of these incidents of voter intimidation have been occurring in predominantly minority neighborhoods and have been directed at African-Americans and Latinos. It is unconscionable to think that anyone would deliberately employ the use of such forceful and intimidating tactics in 2010 to undermine the fundamental, constitutional right to vote.” To read the entire article from Fox News, link here:

written by rufuslevin , October 30, 2010 Looks to me like race baiting Sheila Lee is guilty of fomenting a racial civil war situation in Houston. Is that what her constituents WANT? A black vs white deal to "monitor" each other? This won't get ugly because the Patriots are law abiding rational people, but I can not say the same for the hostile, racist, pseudo-militia Panthers, who only exist for intimidation and power trips. Maybe Houston needs a chapter of the Hispanic Reb Berets to monitor both of the groups, and the Asian Tong can come in an keep peace. Meanwhile, everyone loses sight of the purpose of Nov 2 is to ELECT officials, not to play RACIAL GAMES like Sheila Lee. POS.

written by Dem Too , October 30, 2010 No, Miss Shiela, these people do not want to intimidate anyone. They simply want to try to make sure that the election is honest and that only properly registered voters are voting. Isn't an honest election what we all want, Miss Sheila ?

written by rubea ross , October 30, 2010 how hypocritical of ms lee to remark that it is unconscionable to think that anyone would deliberately employ the use of such forceful and intimidating tactics....the democrats have been stealing elections for years and years and not one election goes by that the dems do not cheat...payback is a bitch ms lee...DEAL WITH IT

written by Doug R , October 30, 2010 I do not condon voter intimidation, or interfering in any way with another persons rights. With that said, people need to be aware that some supporters of the Democratic will stop at nothing to progress their agendas. This is true with current political members, that proved this point by shoving their health care, and cap and trade down americas throat, just to name a few. Wake up , they do not play fair, the have no morals, the really don't care if the majority likes what they say or do, they are out for themselves, and yes they will tell you what you want to hear to get what they want, or just a chance to get it.

written by Jerry , October 30, 2010 Well, democrats sent the Black Panthers to Philadelphia with billy clubs to intimidate conservative voters. NOW you say " It is unconscionable to think that anyone would deliberately employ the use of such forceful and intimidating tactics in 2010 to undermine the fundamental, constitutional right to vote." HYPOCRITES!

written by palidin67 , October 30, 2010 I don't understand it. The Justice department has a clear cut and dry case of voter intemidation with members of the Black Panthers standing out side of a polling place with Nightsticks and they do nothing. But when a group of Tea Partiy members say they are just going to observe to insure there are no problems such as illeagal aliens voting, voting machines registering bad votes {ie voting for a republican and the democrat is checked} the liberals start screaming. And the people in washington wonder why the American People have lost faith in them!

written by Rabble Rouser , October 30, 2010 Funny...I haven't seen any instances of intimidation on the news. By the way Ms. Lee, as a Representative sworn in to uphold the U.S. Constitution, I would think you would have read that simple document. Nowhere in it is there a fundamental, constitutional right to vote. Just so you now know.

written by Ken in IL , October 30, 2010 How come this paper does not report Jackson-Lee's electioneering? http://libertypundits.net/arti...ing-video/ and call for JAIL. She is not a neophyte politician. She knows better.

written by Cynthia , October 30, 2010 That's to bad for you missy, we are no longer going to allow people that are NOT suppose to be voting to vote...I don't care if their black, white, brown or green..they are going to be watched...period!

written by Tea Party Bill , October 30, 2010 It's needed. Michelle O'Bama won't be able to do any electioneering at the poll. Wink, wink.....

written by Francis , October 31, 2010 Voted YES on continuing federal funds for declared "sanctuary cities". (Mar 2008) Voted YES on comprehensive immigration reform (Jun 2007); (AMNESTY) Senator Barbara Boxer is Pro-Amnesty and even when there is 12 percent jobless in California, she has Joined with Senator Reid to pass this massive Amnesty, adding the Dream Act and even more agricultural farm workers. After the last 1986 Amnesty--once naturalized the farm workers deserted their jobs on the farms and headed for the mainstream in cities and communities. Voted NO on declaring English as the official language of the US government (Jun 2007); Self explanatory--but the US government had to spend billions of dollars for interpreters, judicial documents just to appease foreigners. No other country in the world spends this sort of money; either you learn the National language or you’re out-of-luck. Voted NO on building a fence along the Mexican border (Sept 2006); The--DOUBLE--fence is not completed and the original design under the 2006 Secure Fence Act was dismantled. Voted YES on establishing a Guest Worker program (May 2006); Voted YES on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security (May 2006); this would be an absolute tragedy to all Americans who will depend on this money in their old age. Voted NO on a limiting welfare for immigrants (Jun 1997); This has been happening for years, which has cost the unaware taxpayers billions upon billions of dollars, specially where Instant citizenship babies are concerned (The A-N-C-H-O-R baby syndrome.) This should be revised--that the parents must be deported, but the children can return at 18 as a authorized citizens. This law is a travesty and must be changed, as the illegal parents can establish a foundation and have the opportunity to access Welfare and government handouts. During this time period the Mother may have even more children that allow them even more access to child entitlements. Voted YES on visas for skilled workers (May 1998); This has remained an open book for fraud, as the business owners are still collecting massive profits on medium skilled labor, not the scientists, engineers and computer innovators we expect. Voted YES in providing funding for social services for non-citizens (May 2006); No non-citizen or illegal alien should be able to take advantage of any welfare program.

written by Donald Bly , October 31, 2010 I've seen the documentation of multiple voter registrations provided by the King Street Patriots... there is rampant voter fraud in the works in Harris County. Wasn't Sheila Jackson Lee the one that was seen electioneering at a polling place in violation of the law?

written by Law Abiding Citizen , October 31, 2010 "Ken in IL" is right, by golly. Ms. Lee is, however, entitled to a fair trial; but if convicted then she may need to "stay" in the crossbars hotel for "a spell".. By the way, what about Moochell Obama's open and illegal electioneering at a poll place : which was recorded, and later shown on national news..... and while we are at it, what about Barak : if he has broken the law by seeking and then holding an office he is not qulified for [due to never being qualified to seek it in the first place, due to faiure to meet the citizenship requitement as enunciated in the US Constitution] then will he be given a "free pass" [or should he be charged, tried, and then if convicted sentenced to appropriate punishment under the law .....]. As for those "mischeivious" Black Panthers who drove voters from the polls and have not yet been charged, shame on the USDOJ [and ultimately shame on Obama ..... as it is his DOJ in his "administration"].

written by furrpiece , October 31, 2010 First of all, Sheila Jackson Lee is an officer of the American Socialist Party, the same one that Eddie Bernice Johnson belongs to. Lee's district is basically the old district of Barbara Jordan. Voter fraud in that district didn't begin until AFTER Barbara Jordan retired and was teaching at the LBJ School in Austin. But, voter fraud is now rampant, and no less than Mayor Bill White knows it, and condones it! They routinely steal elections in that area of Houston, and Democrats turn a blind eye. To make matters worse, the clowns from the New Black Panther Party with their Army-Navy Store uniforms and made-up Muslin names are going to aggravate the situation, enabled by Muslim and terrorist sympathizer, Eric Holder. Frankly, they need state election inspectors in those precincts to protect the poll watchers. Otherwise, they will be intimidated by the thugs from Justice and the sorry excuses for election judges (who are ward healers in that area of Houston). Democrats in Texas have been stealing elections for years. So, this isn't new. It's just the ramping up of the effort and the more intense effort to stop it.

written by furrpiece , October 31, 2010 Donald, even Michelle Obama was electioneering at a Chicago polling place. Of course, nobody did anything about it. She's black, it's Chicago, and it's par for the course.

written by Tea Party , October 31, 2010 "It is unconscionable to think that anyone would deliberately employ the use of such forceful and intimidating tactics in 2010 to undermine the fundamental, constitutional right to vote.” No kidding Sheila.. tell that to your Panther friends -- you know the ones with the nightsticks?.

written by furrpiece , October 31, 2010 I just remembered another attribute of Sheila Jackson-Lee. This is the incompetent moron who, on the floor of Congress, announced during the Clinton Impeachment that Man had successfully landed on Mars. M A R S ! ! ! Truly, this woman is one of the dumbest rocks on Earth, and would only be missed as body ballast if she was kidnapped by aliens. Other than than, she's doing a fine job of sucking tax dollars out of our wallets to support her imperial lifestyle at taxpayer expense. Write comment
