Paul Ryan to Introduce New Medicare Plan with Democrat Ron Wyden
December 14, 2011 | 4 comments
The Spectacle Blog
Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the DNC chair, has accomplished the triple crown of fact-check failures: Politifact, the Washington Post, and Factcheck all rated her claim on Sunday that the Ryan Medicare plan would deny seniors with pre-existing conditions coverage “false.”
If Democrats are wondering whether it’s advisable to have a gaffe-prone, highly visible personality running their organization, Republicans might have a few words to the wise for them.

We are thrilled, tingles up our legs thrilled, that Cong. Wasserman-Schultz is DNC chair. What better spokesperson for the party than someone who can so clearly expound the positions and issues of the day.

Steele may have made some missteps but he wasn't nasty.
FastJohnny| 6.1.11 @ 6:50PM
What is with this woman, what axe does she have to grind? She has had a career that allowed her to rise quickly and fairly easily and now she is angry with everyone who isn't reading from the same page as her. What gives?
Jackboot | 6.1.11 @ 8:55PM
What gives, is the democrat party loves nasty women in it's ranks. Think Pelousy. They seem to have an idea that outright mean-spiritedness coming from a victim class, gives them a pass to outrage.

Representative Weiner notwithstanding, she's a perfect example of the "Peter Principle."
albert constantine, jr.| 6.1.11 @ 10:29PM
As I recall Dr. Peter's work, he posited that the problem with organizations was that generally people rose to their level of incompetence, and then stayed there. The result was what accounted for much of the incompetence that could be found in bureaucracies, businesses, etc.
The difficulty in applying the Peter Principle to Ms. Wasserman-Schultz and her ilk is that I have yet to see her held back by incompetence. Whether representing her district or chairing the DNC, I hear her obnoxiously accented northeastern voice from her southern (Florida) district grating through the latest Democrat talking points, and am at a loss as to who could find her appealing.

What's her take on the Weiner? Enquiring minds want to know.
Timothy L. Pennell| 6.2.11 @ 7:22AM
The truth is...She extols the thoughts and wishes of the Democrat Party, as well as anyone could.
Lie. Cheat. Tax. Spend. Lie some more.
They really DO think that ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, is Legal. They DON'T want any kind of Verification Process for identifying anyone's eligibility to Vote. When they lose elections, they take to the streets. They have NO idea what the Free Market is. No Clue, as to the Private Sector. They DESPISE the Pharmaceutical Companies, that keep us alive, the Energy Companies, that keep us going, Big Agriculture, Big Retail, and, of course, our Founding Fathers, and that outdated piece of paper, that they came up with, to lay down the RULES for a FREE NATION. They HATE it. They DESPISE it. And they try to SUBVERT IT, every single day.
Now. Which Democrat am I speaking of?
If you said: ALL OF THEM, go to the head of the class.
