Wasserman Schultz blasts Perry's flat tax plan as 'definition of insanity' By Geneva Sands-Sadowitz - 10/25/11 01:21 PM ET
Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wassserman Schultz slammed Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry's tax plan, saying his flat tax proposal would benefit the wealthiest Americans at the expense of the middle class and increase the deficit.
"My reaction to Rick Perry's new/old plan is that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result," said Wasserman Schultz on MSNBC Tuesday.
Perry, the Texas governor, laid out a sweeping overhaul to the nation's tax code, entitlements and way of budgeting Tuesday. He called for an optional 20 percent flat tax, a privatized option for Social Security and a hike in the eligibility age for Social Security and Medicare.
"This is not a new idea, this is not something that's proposed for the first time. A flat tax has been introduced in the past and it's been rejected because it blows a hole in the deficit," she added.
Wassserman Schultz, a congresswoman from Florida, said she believes Perry's plan will exclusively benefit the wealthiest Americans without helping the middle class.
"This proposal not only does nothing for them, it just leaves them out in the cold and focuses on the same trickle down economics," said Wasserman Schultz in reference to Americans making between $50,000 and $500,000 a year.
She told MSNBC her constituents are not concerned about dividends, capital gains, or estate taxes, but rather their annual income.

Wasserman Schultz also weighed-in on Perry's recent "birther" comments.
In an interview that aired on CNBC Tuesday Perry expanded on the comments he made to Parade magazine over the weekend, in which he said he wasn't sure whether Obama is an American citizen.
He called keeping the issue of whether President Obama was born in the United States alive "fun."
Many political commentators said delving into this topic was distracting to his economic campaign message.
"I think it's clear whether it's Rick Perry or Mitt Romney that they think that politics is a cynical game," said Wasserman Schultz.

This woman defines “bimbo”.
She should return to whatever she did to earn a real living - as if she ever did.
Uh, Wassie, yeah you - - . Just look up the definition of “insanity” in any textbook and your picture will be there. Yep, the same one you see in your bathroom mirror, so I’m told.
As if it matters what this woman thinks.
Keep Talking
Does she mean “definition of insanity” like attempting to spend another $400+ BILLION of the tax payer’s money AFTER failing to fix the economy with an original $800+ BILLION dollar stimulus?!?!?
Or does she mean washing your hair in mayonnaise over and over attempting to remove the “greasy” look?
Projection.
Her husband must be a blind man.
When you think it can’t get worse, she opens her mouth!
I have no idea what, if any, productive thing it is qualified to do. Prostitution is out; so is porn. Anything else is probably beyond its capabilities.
I wouldn't hire it to dig ditches.
I bet he’s hit that...just because of her 0 ears.
So lets get this right, according to Democrtas... any idea returns control of the peoples money back to the people and gives less control of the money to Democrat politicians and their cronies is labled as giving tax breaks to the rich at the expense of the poor....
So I guess it means to Democrats every citizen in America is a source of government wealth so we are all by their definition “The Rich”
I’m just not fast enough today. I was going to post a disparaging remark about Deb but I believe most have already been made. LOL!
The idiot woman fits the very definition of insanity, as does this entire idiot-ridden administration....and the she-idiot is using such against someone else? LMAO! =.=
She thinks the current tax system is working and all is well.
She should have been aborted.
