Appearing alongside with Dr. Mohsin Jaffer, a Muslim constituent she invited as her guest to tonight's State of the Union address, DNC chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) told MSNBC it was "incumbent" upon her to stand with Muslims because as a Jew she knows what persecution is. Wasserman Schultz on MSNBC:
I've been appalled as so many of my constituents have been appalled at the vitriol and the hatred and the appalling reactions of some towards Muslims and Muslim-Americans and I felt for me as a member of a minority religion myself, a religion, Judaism, that has been persecuted throughout our existence. It's incumbent upon us to stand with our Muslim brothers and sisters and make sure that we can push back hard on that vitriol and hatred and say absolutely not. Not in the United States of America. These are not American values. No better way than to invite Muslim-American constituents to join us for the most significant speech that is given by the President of the United States all year long and the greatest democratic institution in the world.
"It is not the faith that is bad, it is some miscreants that are doing things in the name of Islam," -SNIP-

A big thank you to whoever let her out of the attic she was apparently locked in all these months.

wrong! it’s bad..and it’s and ideology not a faith. Islam is a political ideology with elements of religion.
She is a disgrace

She should make a trip to any mid East country as a new and find out what persecution really is.

Her Muslim friends would love to push little Debbie into the twinkie oven.
They just won’t admit it to her face because it is allowed to lie to infidel under sharia.

Just don’t stand too close, Debbie, or they’ll rub you the wrong way, if you know what I mean.
