The remarkable, unfathomable ignorance
of Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Guardian [UK], by Glenn Greenwald

Original Article

Posted By:ketchuplover, 10/21/2012 2:17:24 AM

On 29 May 2012, the New York Times published a remarkable 6,000-word story on its front page about what it termed President Obama's "kill list". It detailed the president's personal role in deciding which individuals will end up being targeted for assassination by the CIA based on Obama's secret, unchecked decree that they are "terrorists" and deserve to die. (Snip) But Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the Democratic Congresswoman from Florida and the Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, does not know about any of this. She has never heard of any of it. She has managed to remain

There are none so blind as those who will not see. If a Brit can recognize DWS's ignorance, why can't our msm?

Rats abandoning ship. When (not if) Romney becomes president, the Democratic Party will be in ashes laid at the feet of this colossally stupid woman, Barack Obama, David Axelrod, and all the Chicago thugs that think national politics is the same as protesting in the 'hood.

Intellect is NOT her long suit. She certainly gives every indication of actually being that stupid.

The only explanation for her political existance is the ever present stupid vote. The number of displaced New Yaawk voters in Florida who reflexively pull the Dumbocrat lever may be larger than most think.

Lying has become a huge contagion in left wing politics. Going on shows like on MSNBC allows you to lie at will and not get called on it.So because these people get approval from the dishonest media,they think they get away with it for everybody.

It's funny and sad at the same time that Obama can say PP gives free mammograms and thousands of women call only find out it's just another Obama lie or actually he "misspoke".

The MSM is still working to bury the Benghazi story,despite tons of objective evidence to the contrary.Obviously this is to help Obama make it through the foreign policy debate next week.

The left was very happy at onetime that Romney was the candidate because they thought everybody hated rich people and Mormons as much as they do.Now they're digging up desperate last minute attacks on Bain again.To borrow a word for GW,the left misunderestimated how good Romney was on his feet.

I am in the district she "represents". It makes me sick to go past my neighbors with re-election signs in the yard for her. Of course, I won't throw eggs at the signs but it sure is tempting. These people who support her are mindless or they are just dyed in the wool liberals who don't see that they are also in Obama's bulls-eye. Where is John Galt?

It’s not that she’s that stupid, it’s that she thinks we’re that stupid; so stupid that we’ll believe her denial, and so stupid that she can get away her denial.

Won’t it be fun to see her hysteria on November 7th when the results are in and she is out?

Let's see...Obama "pores over his terrorist baseball cards" to decide which will be killed next? But on the other hand he can't be bothered to attend half of his security briefings?

Jimmie Carter obsessed over the White House tennis court schedules. I guess neither one of them wanted to do the WORK of President...they preferred BEING president.

It was during the 2000 florida election mess. Dumb Debbie was a member of the florida legislature, and received alot of attention from the mainstream media meatheads, as she ranted and raved about the recount...

DWS is not ignorant. Well, she is, but that's not what makes her lie. She has no reason to speak the truth. She knows that the Ob@$tard Knee Pad Media will back her up and cover for her.

When is the last time anyone from the 0KPM called her hand? When is the last time anyone from the 0KPM pointed out the lies?

As long as the 0b@$tard Knee Pad Media is in power, and make no mistake, they are in power, she will draw her last breath lying her head off.

Saw Debbie on TV just now. She is too old for the Shirley Temple hair.

She repeated the lie about Iraq. It was GW that gave a time line for US to exit. It had nothing to do with Zippy's decision.

The liberals have taken everything Mitt should say about Zippy and twisted it around. His voters don't know the difference.

DWS is what TiVo was made for. Skip through her lies.

I made the mistake of watching CBS This Morning. I was an 0bama commercial. They delivered their "oh so serious" lines in their best alarming deep voices. They fact-checked Romney but not 0bama. David Corn was a resource. What a pantload. I hope the 0bama campaign reported this as a contribution in kind. There was literally NO balance.

Of course you don't know what he is talking about Deb. You think if you say it that intelligent people are going to believe it.

Agreeing with #4, #5 and others who say she is a liar. It was obvious from the beginning of his reign, that 0bama was surrounding himself with yes-men who were willing and eager to lie for him. Not a particularly small group in the Dem party, but a personality that is unsettling to watch. Rahm epitomizes that personality. DWS is just not "good" at it.


Reply 51 - Posted by: GreatPlains, 10/21/2012 1:31:21 PM     (No. 8950347)

Of course she's a liar.
But, she's also got some kind of emotional
and mental problem where she is incapable of ever admitting an error or acknowledging the truth.
Her eyes are very far apart and crossed,
reminiscent of the kid in Deliverance.
She's like a wind up toy that drones on and on in a monotone without
saying anything remotely grounded in reality.
Obama appointed her as chairman of the DNC.
She's ...been... an.... Epic.... Fail.
Lik all things Obama.
Thursday , it was reported that DWS had steered
the DNC to 20 million in debt with
only 4.6 million cash on hand.
Reince Priebus announced that the RNC has 82.6 million cash on hand
and will spend every penny of it
in the next 16 days ,
including the important GOTV.
Way to go Debbie !

#4 - that's the plight of the leftist radicals (with their own media!) in the land comparatively free. They lie, media covers the lies, but we, normal, commonsensical people, get our info on the internet and a little bit on FOX.
Still, the leftist freaks make stupid faces, toothy grins and other wry faces to respond to accusations of untruths.
Unfortunately big chunk of the Americans don't have time and smarts to dig for the info. And I believe one of the most important, if not the most important things, winning repubics need to do, is building new conservative mainstream media.

Until the last few days I had heard very little if anything from DWS for the last month or so. I thought either the admin had told her to make ineffective/counterproductive self scare for awhile, or the media stopped taking her seriously. Or maybe her spiel is so nutty they kept her on the most loyal outlets like MSDNC. Apparently because of the relative paucity of any Obama spokesmen, they had called an all hands on deck for the last couple weeks of this campaign, so even she is back.

The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the Obama administration’s denial of asylum granted to the Romeike family, who fled Germany over its strict anti-homeschooling laws. In a press release Tuesday, Michael Farris, founder and chairman of the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), said, “We believe the Sixth Circuit is wrong and we will appeal their decision. America has room for this family and we will do everything we can to help them.” The Romeikes fled Germany in 2008 when they were subjected to criminal prosecution for homeschooling, which is largely illegal in their country.

They are 1 percenters who are 100 percent despicable. Some wealthy Manhattan moms have figured out a way to cut the long lines at Disney World — by hiring disabled people to pose as family members so they and their kids can jump to the front, The Post has learned. The “black-market Disney guides” run $130 an hour, or $1,040 for an eight-hour day. “My daughter waited one minute to get on ‘It’s a Small World’ — the other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours,” crowed one mom, who hired a disabled guide through Dream Tours Florida.

IRS scandal raises fears about

The Internal Revenue Service scandal would be bad enough if the IRS just handled issues like collecting income taxes and granting nonprofit status. But the immensely powerful federal agency is about to become even more powerful with the arrival of national health care, and that makes the still-unfolding scandal even more troubling. (Snip) The IRS is critical to Obamacare. The structure created by the Affordable Care Act requires the government to know about both the health care coverage (or lack of it) and the financial resources of every American.

Victoria Toensing, Republican Counsel to the Senate Intelligence Committee, says her client, a State Department official now considered a whistle-blower in the investigation of the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi, has been "threatened" by Obama administration officials. According to Toensing, these threats weren´t related to ambiguous matters. Rather, they were "specifically about Benghazi." She says the threats went beyond the four State Department officials who´ve currently retained counsel. "People have been threatened at the CIA" as well, she claimed. (Snip) Toensing claimed the threats relate to ending the careers of those with information about the attacks who

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care?
