Debbie Wasserman Schultz Under Fire From Fellow Democrats For Being a Liar

Over the past few months of the 2016 presidential cycle, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has come under heavy fire from her own party for favoring former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over other candidates in the Democrat primary. In the past two weeks, Wasserman-Schultz has come under extra criticism for allegedly disinviting DNC Vice Chairwoman Tulsi Gabbard to the first Democrat debate in Las Vegas after Gabbard dared to suggest the DNC should hold more primary debates, especially since they've been requested by candidates running for the White House. 

Now, Wasserman-Schultz is under fire again and this time, she's being accused of lying and not being capable of handling the job as chairwoman. From the New York Times

R.T. Rybak, the former mayor of Minneapolis and a vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee, on Thursday accused the party’s leader, Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, of making “flat-out not true” statements about another top party officer, questioned her political skills and said he had “serious questions” about her suitability for the job.

In a series of televised interviews on Monday and Tuesday, Ms. Wasserman Schultz suggested that Ms. Gabbard was causing an unwelcome distraction by drawing attention from the presidential candidates, and insisted that she had indeed consulted with the party’s officers before scheduling the debates.

In a telephone interview Thursday, Mr. Rybak weighed in angrily in response, expressing shock that Ms. Wasserman Schultz “would knowingly say something that is flat-out not true.”

“This is not a back-and-forth between a chair and a vice chair,” he said. “This is a chair of the Democratic Party wrongly stating that she consulted with all of the party officers. I was not consulted. I know that Tulsi Gabbard was not consulted. And this is becoming about much more than debates.”

“I am seriously questioning whether she has the capacity to do what has to be done,” he said of Ms. Wasserman Schultz. “And that’s why I’m doing what I wanted not to do for a long time, which is go public with my serious questions of whether she can lead this party.”

Before the 2014 midterm elections, where Democrats eventually lost the majority in the Senate to Republicans, there were rumblings Wasserman-Schultz would be called to resign. We later learned the Chairwoman planned to accuse President Obama of anti-Semitism and sexism if he asked her to leave her position.

According to people who spoke with her, when she sensed Obama was considering replacing her as chair in 2013, she began to line up supporters to suggest the move was both anti-woman and anti-Semitic. Under fire last fall for her leadership, she took Obama’s decision not to remove her then as evidence of renewed strength and said she was confident no one could get her out of the DNC before her term is over at the beginning of 2017, according to sources who’ve spoken with her. She’s also been known to joke around the office about how having a vacation home in New Hampshire might one day be helpful in a presidential run.

I'll leave you with this.

"Wasserman-Schultz is under fire again and this time, she's being accused of lying "

This is news to these lbs?

Blabbermouth has been lying since the day I first heard her speak.

Typically the libs feel that a lie, no matter how onerous, (like the Jihadists) is a okay as long as advances their "narrative." The enite abortion "I can do what I want with my body," the entire Beghazi affair, Healthcare, "I did bnot have sex with that woman," the list is endless.

But now, since blabbermoputh is lying about their pet candidates and efforts, they choose to call her a liar.

Well excuse me if I have exactly zero empathy for them.

As far as I am concern, when I see this, I have the same feelings I would have if a jihadist prematurely set off a bomb and killed a half dozen of his own terrorists with it.

Well now. Isn’t that a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Hell the definition of a democrat begins with liar.

Gee, when did Dems start giving a damn about the truth? Seems being a liar would be a prerequisite for the job running the DNC.

That eye make up is the FIRST thing one sees. It's appalling. The T.V. make-up folks should have, er, spoken to her about it.
I think that these women do it for other women, not for men. She CANNOT have thought that her "look" worked. She probably SCARES the men away with that look.

Signed, dudette.

I thought being a liar was a requirement for all Democrat politicians.
