Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., speaking in New Hampshire this morning, reminded her audience of the tragic Tucson shooting last year -- and also insinuated that the Tea Party, which she said regards political opponents as "the enemy," has enhanced divisiveness in Congress and had something to do with the shooting, at least indirectly.
"We need to make sure that we tone things down, particularly in light of the Tucson tragedy from a year ago, where my very good friend, Gabby Giffords -- who is doing really well, by the way, -- [was shot]," Wasserman Schultz, the Democratic National Committee chair said during a "Politics and Eggs" forum this morning. "The discourse in America, the discourse in Congress in particular . . . has really changed, I'll tell you. I hesitate to place blame, but I have noticed it take a very precipitous turn towards edginess and lack of civility with the growth of the Tea Party movement."
Having brought up the Giffords attack as a political cudgel, Wasserman Schultz doubled down on that attack. "You had town hall meetings that they tried to take over, and you saw some their conduct at those tea party meetings," Wasserman Schultz said today. "When they come and disagree with you, you're not just wrong, you're the enemy."
Warming to that theme, she added that "when they disagree with you on an issue, you're not just wrong, you're a liar."
Giffords' shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, was eventually discovered to be a mentally unstable loner with no immediate partisan agenda and a serious alcohol problem. In 2007, he had attended a forum and asked a question of Giffords, which she had not answered to his satisfaction.

Dont laugh. There is purpose behind these continuous charges of terrorists and blaming the TEA Party as a threat to national security.
As history shows us, tyrants will demonize their opponents first, thus creating a public perception that will afford and allow the tyrants the ability to criminalize and eventually ERADICATE those they have targeted for destruction.
Despite the fact that Wasserman-Schultz is PROJECTING what she and her party are actually DOING, the end result of all the enemy demonization of Conservatives and TEA Partiers, is prepping us for criminalization - and future annihilation. Already the OWS mob zombies consider the TEA Party to be NAZIS they must put under.
Trust me on this. Satan sticks to what works, and history repeats for a reason. This is not simply desperate idiot-speak by ideologues, this stuff has intent and purpose behind it, and given everything from the April 2009 DHS Terror assessment to the recent NDAA, things can turn nightmarish in very, very short order. All they have to achieve is creating an atmosphere of fear for being associated with the TEA Party - and even ardent TEA Party supporters will melt away like brown sugar and butter in a hot sauce pan to save themselves.
That is why they keep blaming the TEA Party for the nut job shooting of Giffords. They desperately want some TEA Party Conservative tied to some act of violence, which will give tyrants justification to bring down the iron fist.
Im simply noting history folks.
Yes, it IS happening here.
I completely agree.
There could not possibly be a better example of a Democrat than DWS. She is the epitome of what they are. Loose with truth, (Pathological Liars) and the accusations (in this case the TEA Party) describe precisely what the Democrats think, and do opposed to what they claim we, or the TEA Party participants think, and do.
Meanwhile, Republican districts the democraps wanted to defeat were targeted with bullseyes in 2010 by the democraps.
So, Debbie, you crazy loon, that was OK?
I guess the little girl and conservatives shot weren’t her friends.
But I agree she should tell BHO to tone down his divisive rhetoric.
oh this cunning little runt is often on FNC and just her presence there, for a few minutes, makes me want to commit meyhem...
hey thats it....it wasn’t the Tea Party it was this little POS, that caused ‘nutsy fagan’ to shoot all those people....
Bad hair alert!
Are you really that ignorant about who really has caused and is causing chaos in the country; who are out of control and unfocused; and who are the frightening, riot-prone crowds? Or do you just like to be known as a liar attempting to perpetrate another fraud on the American public?
Or, perhaps you are just weak and scared of competent people who have very peacefully...with no violence at all...brought about many much needed changes that you and your socialist minded counterparts fear will take away the power that they cherish more than the truth?
That's not a bad description.
Speaking of Kenny G, there's this gem out there...
Must be the full moon.
We DO believe they must be defeated.
We DO hate them.
The funny part is, she sees it as something weird.
The pathetic thing is that this anti-Tea Party attack starting last January really has worked.
The Tea Partiers were mistaken about what kind of country they were living in.
After the Old Tea Party came the minutemen, and the Continental Army.
After Obama routs Romney this November, how will we respond?

A President who mocks and taunts Americans, who incites his followers to be confrontational, is troublesome.
Of course, no conservative politician would speak that.
The thing is, while most of us here on this board see this absolute absurdity and ridiculous attempt to demonize the TEA Party for what it is, we’re a minority opinion in the country - and here, we are choir-preaching.
The average 9-5 Joe Sixpack, who gets news in soundbites at the top of the hour or from Comedy Central, absolutely believe this DWS lie that is now, “factual” by perception.
You are dealing with the puppets of Satan folks, we laugh it away as “no one besides a moonbat is going to believe her” at our peril.
More than half the country already believes the TEA Party is a threat needing the government to crack down on.
And Obama and the Ruling Class are now self aware.
Which is why they are doing what they are.
We have passed the point of no return.
