DNC Chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL) appeared on the season premiere of HBO's "Real Time" with host Bill Maher this Friday.
In the Overtime portion of the show, which is broadcasted and available only on the internet, Wasserman Schultz got into race politics, claiming the Democratic Party is the "natural home" for minorities.
Wasserman Schultz says minorities feel "comfortable" because the Democratic Party stands up for "the issues that matter to those communities and Republicans shun them." Transcript below.

I don't disagree.
” May a thousand fleas infest her armpits!”
Again?
Dems like Blabbermouth Schultz can't listen long enough to have a debate with anyone. They only know talking points, and that's all that ever spews out of their mouths.
Imagine if a Republican had said that. The MSM, Maher included, would be all over calling Republicans racists.
Actually, a Republican should say it word for word and if given the riot act just state I’m repeating what your dnc chair said. Would prove the negative, wouldn’t it?
I think both Newt and Herman could put her in her place, out-talking her with no problem :-)
Democrats, the party of: The Know-nothings, the Confederacy, the KKK, Jim Crow, George Wallace, Segregation, the Dixiecrats, the Color Line, the Knights of the Golden Circle, World War I, World War II, the Korea and Vietnam debacles, welfare, the Social Security Ponzi scheme, the Federal Reserve, etc., etc.
Yeah, that’s where minorities belong.
You can only hope that one day minorities who do tend to vote Democrat will realize just how patronizing her statement and more importantly how harmful the policies of her party are to minorities and all Americans. Unfortunately it won’t happen any time soon.
Democrat electioneering supplies.
Well, I *am* a minority, and I’m not a fan of slavery, secession, segregation and socialism, which is why I don,t make my home in the DumbCrap party. Wassup Schultz would do well to quit speaking altogether.
Just like in every liberal college, the minorities are told where they like to sit at sporting events, eat, etc., that they will be “more comfortable” with “their own kind”.
Liberals are committing every evil and we smile and ask for more.
Really? Which party keeps making a point of differences and making race an issue? Um, that would be "'rats for 1000 Alex." Republicans treat everyone the same. The fact that we don't treat people differently based on race - eg. showing special preference for group X, Y, or Z - is blatantly, explicitly, and deliberately non-racist. While the 'rats push for special treatment based on race... Which sounds more racist?
Wasserman Schultz says minorities feel "comfortable" because the Democratic Party stands up for "the issues that matter to those communities and Republicans shun them."
Republicans shun them because to emphasize issues based on race is, well, racist. Treating everyone equally is fair. But that doesn't spin well, nor buy you votes. Hence the 'rats don't go with it.
Yeah, Sheets Byrd and a bunch of other segregationists can keep a better eye on you there. We’ve got a lot of klansfolk that vote for Democrats too. Don’t forget, we Democrats are the Jim Crow voting law creators that stopped all you minorities from being able to vote.
Don’t leave the Democrat plantation, we love keeping you all poor and dependent on us.
Democrats want a lot of voters who have:
1) Little or no pay
2) Little or no wealth
3) Dependence
Sounds like slavery - that was supposed to have ended.
That “natural home” stands between the person and their own opportunity that they are free to make the most of.
Just a pet peeve that we need to stop saying “imagine if the republicans said that...” because it implies we recognize that democrats can get away with it.
It also sounds like republicans do say the the same things, whereas we don’t.
Just call the democrats the racists they are and demand they retract, resign, apologize, etc. Every time.
And I’m embarrassed that this ditz would say something this degrading. A political party should never be anybody’s “natural home”.
OMG, you’re so baaaad! (You forgot the Hennessy for when they need the BIG guns - so to speak)
LOL
"Natural home" indeed. "Magnolia, bring me another mint julep."
