The Talented Mrs. Jackson Lee

Fresh from her totally necessary appearance at Michael Jackson's memorial service, Sheila "Hurricane" Jackson Lee finally spent some quality time with her constituents today. When asked a tough question from a cancer survivor—one of the "political terrorists" Rep. Baron Hill (D-Ind) warned us about—Jackson Lee focused like a laser…on an incoming cell phone call. Note the audience member gasp, "Seriously?…I mean, come on dude." Via Drudge:

The talented Mrs. Jackson Lee told The Washington Post that answering the phone while a constituent asked a question was no big deal: "I happen to be able to think, listen and maybe even talk at the same time."
