Debbie Wasserman Schultz has rocky DNC start
Politico ^ | 6/11/11 | Molly Ball

Posted on 06/10/2011 5:18:41 AM PDT by markomalley

Democrats knew they were getting an outspoken partisan when Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz took over the reins of the Democratic National Committee a month ago.

But they might not have known just how outspoken.

In the four weeks since she succeeded Tim Kaine, Wasserman Schultz has been called out by four nonpartisan fact-checkers for mischaracterizing the GOP’s Medicare plan.

She’s accused Republicans of wanting to reinstate segregation and of waging a “war on women.” She has asserted, somewhat nonsensically, that the GOP wants to make illegal immigration — by definition against the law — “a crime.” She’s also been mocked for driving a foreign car after pounding Republicans for not supporting the American auto industry.

A rank-and-file member of Congress typically wouldn’t get noticed for inflammatory language and rhetorical slip-ups. But Wasserman Schultz has a higher profile now — and was hired precisely because of her skills as a communicator.

No one seems ready to declare her the Democratic version of Michael Steele, the gaffe-prone former Republican National Committee chairman whose rhetorical and administrative missteps led numerous party leaders to publicly insist he had to go. But some Democrats are already privately fretting about the media-loving Wasserman Schultz’s tendency to put her foot in her mouth — after all, her ability to be the party’s frontwoman and messenger was a major reason President Barack Obama selected her as chairwoman.

This is all bogus!

She is a RAT. Rules requiring accuracy and honesty are not applicable to RATs.

She’s perfect for the DNC.

She’s the female equivalent of a Weiner, the common term for which probably wouldn’t get by the language filter here.

Want to bet? Knowing the democrat cadres as we do, there
was more involved than her ability.

What are they talking about??? Debbie is great. Conservatives need a loud mouthed, pea-brained, gaffe-prone liberal woman who is constantly shooting off her mouth. It provides great blog fodder. She is in the great tradition of Roseanne, Rosie and Joy. You go girl!!

she’s got the character of Weiner, the mouth of Howard Dean, and her personality at times actually makes Hillary seem warm and cuddly by comparison.

She was selected because she embodies is what Obama ‘thinks’ the American woman of today is. A tough (breast cancer survivor, double mastectomy) progressive, green, soccer Mom.

Obama is so out of touch with real America. Establishing his rural improvement board to improve our quality of life is a prime example. He thinks anyone not living within 25 miles of a large urban area are hicks.

Gotta disagree..

DW-S is many, many things, most of which are not nice, but one thing she most definitely is NOT, is stupid. She knows exactly what she's doing. Look, at the same time that the great prognosticator, Pelosi, is all over the place talking about Dems taking the House in 2012, we are already starting to see stories from political pros about how the Dem loss of the Senate is a near certainty.

To avert even greater losses across the board, the DNC has to keep the hard Dem base engaged and erergized. And the only way to keep a ravenous, maddened animal happy is by feeding it lots of red meat on a daily basis. That's what she is doing. She knows the Senate is gone, their only hope is to keep the WH, and that's what this is all about.

“Wasser-Weiner,” or “Weiner-Wasser”... Either way, twin “sons” of different mothers.

Let me assist you here: Whereby an sly pigmy might be referred to as a "cunning little runt," someone like Mooncalf Schultz, thought thought to be fast on their feet, would be considered a "running little _ _ _ _"!!!

How's that? lol
