Poor Debbie, there’s a tape of her saying exactly what the Washington Examiner quoted her as saying.

What jeopardizes Israel's security is the suggestion, for partisan political gain, that the election of either political party would weaken the long-standing relationship of the United States and Israel,"

Wow. Just the suggestion that electing the other guys would weaken the relationship is enough to jeopardize Israel's security?

Are you freakin' kidding me?

Cluelessness abounds.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Are you going to believe my lie about what the Ambassador said or my lie about not saying what I said?

Pathological lying seems to be a common trait for liberal politicians.

Oh, she said it, but it was “misrepresented”. Apparently, nothing that comes out of these Democrats’ mouths means what they said.

It’s no small thing to be accused of lying by someone representing the people of Israel.

In simple terms that even a harebrained mieskite like Debbie Wasserman Schultz can understand, when Moses delivered the Ten Commandments from Mount Sinai, one specifically stated that lying was a no-no. But Debbie can’t seem to stop herself.

Of course, Democrats don’t believe lying is bad, but what about the many independent voters Obama will need in November?

For the good of the Democrats, Debbie should either step down as DNC chair or be carried kicking and screaming away from the chairmanship and the public eye. But neither is likely to happen.

Frau Schultz was never Jewishly involved until she ran for office and began to play the Jewish Card.

“Who is the bigger idiot - Biden or Debbie Wassername-Schmutz?”

It’s us for even thinking that the media(you know, the ones that scarfed up the “journalists for obama” shirts) might even repudiate the Lying B for the public to see.
