Wasserman Schultz claims Grammys junket was ‘research,’ but guess who paid for it?
Biz Pac Review ^ | 2/10/15 | Joe Saunders

South Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s office is claiming her appearance at the Grammy awards Sunday wasn’t a just a junket for a star-struck politician dying to rub elbows with the glitterati.

It was a research trip, paid for by the congresswoman’s campaign funds.

That’s the story being spun by Wasserman Schultz’s office, anyway, after a New York Times reporter posted a photo of the Democrat in the background of a television standup – a photo that rocketed around the Twitter world. (The presence of Texas Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee in the same photo helped.)

I am so sick of seeing a progressive face every where. These POSs have to put their ugly frickin mugs every where. There is NOTHING that Obama, Blabbermouth, Lee, et al, won’t invade to get their frickin mugs seen. Superbowl, there’s Obama, Grammy’s (which I have never watched) there’s Obama. Big brother is everywhere. I hate these people.

Seems like a logical thing to me.
The Hollyweird crowd is a big source of Democrat funding and propaganda support.

Research? LOL. Given that its Wasserman Schultz and Jackson Lee, they probably thought they were going to a symposium on issues facing the elderly.

In other news, the confluence of Wasserman Schultz, Jackson Lee and a bunch of vapid musicians in such close proximity created an Intelligence Black Hole that threatened to swallow up Los Angeles.

Schultz claims Grammys junket was ‘research' ...

Yeah, she was checking out all the comfort food buffets, looking for a better brand of mayonnaise.

They were looking for the flag that the cosmonauts planted in Hollywood.

That is why it was a “Two Dog Night”.

It wasn’t being charged to their campaign funds ... UNTIL their photo’s were shown in public.

Before that photo, their travel was on the Congressional budget.

I wonder if they received any of the high dollar swag bags? Not reporting them could be another violation.

The appearance of Jackson Lee and Wasserman-Schultz sounds like a case of “Transporataion of over-ripe socialists across state lines for immoral purposes”.

If that’s not illegal, it should be.

Any meeting of socialists and Hollyweird produces something, or many things, for far less than moral porposes.
