Debbie Wasserman Schultz

I never really liked Dylan when he was a guest on Morning Joe and kind of turned my nose at the thought of him having his own show. Damn I was wrong. He now has the only cable news show I try and watch everyday (I don’t even do that for Olbermann or Maddow). One of the big reasons is what Taylor Marsh nails down:

Meet the new hero of economic rage, and the foreshadowing of things to come. Dylan Ratigan gets it. He absolutely feels my pain, but also my political rage.

How can any Democrat defend the practice of forcing the American people to buy a product from an industry that enjoys a monopoly, with individual choice obliterated by a political party who has always professed to have the people’s back?

As we’ve seen this week, they can’t. It’s been a Dexter size political bloodbath for anyone who has tried.

Here is Dylan this morning fed up with Democrats feeding us the same old BS. His victim today was Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

I’ll admit I always liked Debbie and even felt a tad-bit sorry for her today, but the fact is that people in the House and Senate are starting to look at the election next year and they figure their best salvation is to get something – anything—through Congress.

This is utterly sick:

A bunch of Broward County, Fla. Republicans convened at a local rifle range to talk politics and squeeze off a few rounds at bullseyes.

One of them was a poster of a scary dude in a traditional Middle Eastern headdress -- another was human likeness with the initials of local Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, according to the Sun-Sentinel.

Among the members of the Southeast Broward Republican Club shooting their handguns and AK's Robert Lowry, who is waging an uphill campaign to unseat the popular Democratic incumbent in a district where D's outnumber R's two-to-one.

Lowry's target -- a paper silhouette -- had "DWS" written on it, a stunt Lowry first called a "joke" and later a "mistake."

So he is trying to cover-up these very poor actions by calling it a “mistake”. No sir – a “mistake” would be anyone voting for you to become part of our government.

Here is the video report from the Sun-Sentinel on this disgusting incident.

Thankfully Democrats aren’t going to take the NRCC’s latest misogynistic attack on Speaker Pelosi lying down. Here is what Debbie Wasserman Schultz had to say about the NRCC ad saying General McChrystal needed to put Pelosi “in her place”.

"It's evidence they long for the days when a woman's place was in the kitchen. Now a woman is third in line for the presidency... But it's not surprising, coming from a party that's 80 percent male and 100 percent white,"

That reminds me of when Howard Dean, then chairman of the DNC, said the Republican Party was mostly old white men. The RNC complained, yet their actions since then have done nothing but etch that sentiment in stone.

There is an angle to this though I think the Democrats should take up. It’s been over three years now since we started seeing a barrage of retired generals come out and oppose the Iraq War. When that happened countless Republicans took to the airwaves and decried these generals words as being detrimental to the morale of our troops, and pushing for them to take their issues up privately through the chain of command, despite them being retired.

So why isn’t the view the same on McChrystal? He is more bound to the chain of command than someone of the same rank who is now retired.

All Pelosi said was that McChrystal should be following the chain of command, something anyone can agree on. To the right the chain of command must no longer exist. And by airing her concerns over this, Pelosi is showing that she knows exactly what her place is. She is the leader of the House of Representatives and third in line to the presidency. We are not a military run government, but rather a civilian run one and as the third highest civilian in our nation, Pelosi is spot on to air her concerns and the right is showing how their political bias quickly clouds sound judgment yet again.
