The Democratic National Committee cannot tolerate Republican rhetoric against the Obama administration's Syrian refugee plan. Rejecting these migrants is equal, in Debbie Wasserman Schultz's eyes, to America's turning away Jews in 1939, forcing them back into Nazi territory.
"We have seen this movie before. In May 1939, the SS St. Louis left Hamburg, Germany carrying more than 900 passengers, nearly all of them Jewish and seeking refuge in the United States. Our country turned them away, and many who were sent back to mainland Europe were killed in the Holocaust. Instead of learning from that mistake Republican candidates and politicians were eager to repeat it."
Schultz continued to chastise Republicans for their "out-of-touch" anti-refugee agenda, going so far as to say it "undermines" one's faith as a Jew.
"Demonizing and scapegoating refugees not only betrays our values as a nation, it undermines our faith as Jews."
Little Debbie failed history because it was the DEMOCRATS of the Roosevelt administration who refused to give the Jewish refugees on the S.S. St. Louis a waiver for the European quote to get asylum in the U.S.
Then against Little Debbie is dumber than any Little Debbie Fig Newton so we cannot expect intelligence from that Florida fruit.
