Disgusting. DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz refused to condemn Teamster President Jimmy Hoffa’s violent profanity-laced threatening Labor Day speech today on FOX and Friends.
Via FOX Nation:
Wasserman Schultz attacked FOX News and declined to condemn the hateful rhetoric at the Obama rally yesterday.
The Politico reported:
In a heated exchanged, Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz repeatedly ducked questions on “Fox and Friends” Tuesday about Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa’s call for workers to combat the tea party and “take these son-of-a-bitches out.”
Wasserman Schultz tried to turn the tables on Fox and called out their news coverage, while refusing to address Hoffa’s remarks at President Barack Obama’s Monday rally in Detroit where he called on workers to wage war on the tea party.
“Fox and Friends” host Gretchen Carlson repeatedly pressed Wasserman Schultz for a comment, with the DNC chair attempting to stay on message by stating only that “the American people want us to focus on working together” to create jobs.
After Carlson prompted several times for a specific response to Hoffa’s shot at the tea party, Wasserman Schultz asked the host “are you kidding me?”
“Really Gretchen? How many times have you called out coarse language at tea party rallies? Almost never,” she said.
What a horrible woman.
Blaming the tea party for Hoffa’s violent speech.

Why is it such a surprise that thugs don’t condemn thuggish rhetoric? The true nature of the Left is blatantly revealed.
Kenny Solomon commented:
They need to incite violence and generate their crisis too good to waste.
We’ll be lucky to make it to November 2012, let alone have a free and open election without ‘problems’.
Democrats & The Left can call me whatever they want — If they ask me what I call myself, I answer: “Heavily armed”.

Objective Analysis commented:
DNC is taken over by left wing, violent thugs with Obama as its dear leader. American people are tired of this mess like they were in the 1960′s and 1970′s. Their violent rhetoric is going to cause their own demise. Bet on it.
BS61 commented:
Well, I guess that Allen West was correct when he called her vile!
myohmy commented:
Schultz is herself spew ugly rhetoric. DNC and union bosses wear same wear mask. They are a corrupt organizations. They over promises to their members with lavish retirement packages and stick the bill to the little guys.
Midwestengr commented:
Jim, Don’t get worked up over DWS, she’s as vile as they come. She will NEVER condemn a wrongdoing by a demoRAT.
listingstarboard commented:
Well there you have it folks. The Democrat party in charge has openly admited they despise and wish us dead–hard working taxpaying honest Middle Americans. What more do people need to see or hear before it truly registers that this administration is hell bent on destroying us? If the Republicans don’t raise holy hell about this they are complicit. Take JUST ONE of Obama’s actions, whether it be the fact he subscribes to radical Black Liberation Theology, his Rezko real estate deal, His ties to Ayers, his sealing his own records shut, This hideous Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal—good lord almighty how much more has to happen for people to wake up.
heyitsmekelly commented:
My official response would of been….. “Hey Gretchen…Why don’t you play the whole statement of what Hoffa actually said you BITCH ???!!! “
MDd commented:
Debbie Schnauzerman-Schmutz is the perfect face of the Dim Party.
Tom in CA commented:
I’m with Midwesterngr….
It would have been so easy to mildly condemn the statement, but she is so worried about upsetting the ‘base’.
Another example of the ‘elites’ living with several rules. All you rubes out there, get to the back of the line…..
MAJ Mike commented:
Are any of us surprised? That’s all they have left. None of their ideas work. So they’ve read Mao’s “Little Red Book” and they’ve bought the “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”
They forget, despite their best efforts, that they are not dealing with unarmed peasants. A great number of us have skills other than getting drunk on lunch break and assembling crappy motor vehicles. They want ugly? We can give it to them in spades.
I’m a heavily armed pacifist.
BS-meter commented:
Debbie What’s-her-name Shultz isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, but she does have a big mouth, and that’s all the Dems wanted in that position…..somebody to mouth the pre-selected talking points without reflecting on what those words mean.
Let’s face it, democrats don’t have anyone who can think on his/her feet, from the top of the ticket in the White House all the way to the newest welfare queen. Name one. I dare ya’. Try and top Robert Gibbs. Or Jay Carney. Or DWS. Or Joe Bite-Me.
Face it. Obama IS the smartest they’ve got and he came from the bottom of the barrel. The rest have to be the bottom of the bottom dwellers. If you expect one of that ilk to condemn another, it’s not going to happen. To them, that’s normal behavior.

Sadly I hear nothing but loud gerbil noises when this @ssclown comes on to talk about issues……..
BS-meter commented:
#9
Do you belong to a union? Did you listen to the tape? Do you have any cognitive skills? Do you understand tonal inflection? Do you know what a douche bag Hoffa is and how he operates?
Have you had your meds this morning?
Pathetic!

Coasta commented:
Wrote to my state house and senate reps just now on this…….please put the disgusted energy you feel into a note to your reps……….this is not a gloss over, this needs to be addressed by the RNC (I know, wishful thinking). It needs to be addressed on Thursday of this week……
The Triguy commented:
“They need to incite violence and generate their crisis too good to waste.

Kenny S., you are absolutely right. They are losing and they know it. Even their much used ‘race card’ is turning against them with people of color. And that is what we should fear…that they will stop at nothing to keep their power.
KR commented:
DWS knows they are sunk.
She looked like she was going to vomit at any moment.
She couldn’t address the question of Hoffa’s words of “Takin’ the sobs out”.
Mikey commented:
I would have responded, ” And what coarse language and violent rhetoric would that be? Please give us some examples of what you are talking about.
Which TEA Party rally, what time and what place”
I would have stopped the presses, and told the producer to hold the commercials, and forced her to provide those examples (which she would be unable to) or retract the charge.
I would have embarrassed that low bred lying mutt on live television.
L.E. Liesner commented:
Why anybody of conservative persuasion would try to talk sense with Debby Wasserman Schultz is beyond me. Trying to argue with a fool only makes you a fool too. Common sense is so rare in society today it is referred to as good sense and the largest share of liberals possess neither. You can bet the farm that if a Tea Party member made an inflammatory speech like Hoffa did, Debby would have plenty to say. Then again Debby shouldn’t be out in public without her handler.
Bill Mitchell commented:
You gotta love the Left. One of their moonbats makes an outrageous comment publicly and then they claim “it was taken out of context”. Well, I have viewed the entire tape and guess what? Hoffa’s comments were presented EXACTLY AS THEY HAPPENED by FoxNews. There is no possible way his comments were “taken out of context”.
Further proof? Wasserman could have said his comments were taken out of context and then explained how, but she chose to avoid the question.
Bill Mitchell commented:
GOOD NEWS PEOPLE!
With Hoffa’s violent rhetoric and the Dems non-response, they have just driven a stake through the heart of any chance they had for the Independent vote in 2012.
A great day for us!
Fallon commented:
Read this somewhere the last time they were trying to label the tea party as racist and extreme and it still rings true:
“I believe what we’re seeing here is the same thing you see in a bar or on the street when a stranger starts hurling insults – because he’s nerving himself up to assault you.”
decentAmerican commented:
first of all, to this deranged itsmekelly person….the whole Hoffa clip has been played in its entirety, along with the transcript listed…..exactly what do you think is taken out of context? Did he not say “sons of b#tches”? Did he not declare “war”? did he not say “we are your army?”….it is the liberal left that has taken his commentns out of context so as to say that he didn’t mean violence by it….. exactly how else would you misconstrue someone call you a “son of b#thces”?
Were you born stupid or did your unnatural manlove for BHO turn you into an utter moron?
Now, for the rest of you smarter folk…..it’s very clear that the Unions have the Liboos in their back pocket, here you have one of the most corrupt unions, from a historically corrupt family, and they are taking his side? Including the President, who says he is “proud” of this man? I have been disgusted by liberal nutjobs before, but this takes the cake.
but, on a ligther note, can Debbie Skank ever even make an effort to look presentable on camera? With all the money she makes, maybe a new hairstyle? She talks like she’s on crack, and only one side of her mouth moves. Is she a crack whore, or is she even human? I have scary visions of a reptile breaking through her skin at any moment. And I feel sorry for the reptile.
Jeff commented:
How dare Gretchen question the GREAT AND MIGHTY OZ!!!
pro usa commented:
Mr. Hoffa was quite clearly discussing removing Tea Party Republicans peacefully through the ballot box. However, his comments were edited and thereby taken completely out of context to seem a call for violence. This is shameful behavior by the likes of Breitbart, Loesch, and Fox News, but not surprising for the thin-skinned, crazed far right.
Sandy commented:
The Dems dreamed of a colorblind nation–one that would work together to do what was best for the American people. What they got instead was Barack Obama, Now they spend all their time trying to defend the indefensible. Obama congratulated Hoffa when he took the podium, he doesn’t hear this as hate speech and as a result DWS and all the rest of the apologists must do the same. I pray this story has legs and that Obama is finally called out for his passivity on this kind of rhetoric.
However, in a few days the Pals will ask the UN to give them a state and the possibility of a regional war becomes more probable everyday. Once again, the American people will take a back seat as Obama tries to earn his gonads on the world stage and the media’s wall to wall coverage will shield his skinny butt once again.

Bunni commented:
That crazy, medusa headed lefty bimbo!
Guess this is what they call civil!
The RNC needs to make a few campaign vids with select clips of this stuff.
Joanne commented:
Ugly is as ugly does, and the left is ugly for all to see. The left are just hypocrites and anyone with half a brain can see it. The left doesn’t condemn Hoffa because they agree with them. The rot starts at the top.
Patriot Act commented:
“Really Gretchen? How many times have you called out coarse language at tea party rallies? Almost never.”
As Mikey already pointed out, and those of us who’ve been to Tea Party rallies already know, the reason their coarse language is never called out is because it’s virtually non-existent!
big L commented:
The teacher teaching your kids, the black person in front of you in the grocery line, your brother -in-law who is a truck driver, the stars you watch on TV, the producers of the movies you pay to see, the GM or Chgrysler Car you buy–all these are supporters and endorsers of these violence-spouting crackpots and will vote for them again. No matter what they say to you at dinner. They will vote for Obama again and secretly love all this threatened mayhem. It is sticking a thumb intheeye of the middle class. It is insulting their parents’ memory which they love asthey are still rebellling.
Change their mind-forget it. Better to identify those in your neighborhood and family that never vote and convince them just this time to vote conservative.
Ripped commented:
Calm down, no one with an ounce of common sense takes this dolt woman seriously and for those that do, remember you can’t fix stupid!
Rock commented:
He was wrong, she knows it, and cannot defend it. That or she agrees, which I suspect is closer to the truth. As for the defense he was talking about voting, nothing but a sham, the words the goons in the crowed heard loud and clear where lets take these SOB’s out.
Hey Debbie, time to start pushing back from the feed trough sweetie, the pounds are starting to show, and WTF did say we all have to have a little skin in the game..
StrangernFiction commented:
Why anybody of conservative persuasion would try to talk sense with Debby Wasserman Schultz is beyond me. Trying to argue with a fool only makes you a fool too.
That is why I don’t watch Fox News.
jimg commented:
You know, I’m sick and tired of listening to this sniveling and so-called outrage over what Leftists say about us.
They hate us. Got that? They. Hate. Us.
Here’s the thing: I want them to hate us.
Know why? Because I hate them, too.
Hate. Pure, unadulterated hate.
This sniveling, whining and crying over what they’re saying? Who effin’ cares?
You want to play the victim? Leave me out of it.
Take them on. Get right up into their grills. They want war? Give them war.
But for the love of gawd, stop with the mewling, we’re-so-offended crap.
I’m sick of hearing it. And I’m sick of reading about it.
Thinking human commented:
“If ballots don’t work, bullets will.”
Yes, AMERICA is aware of where the violent rhetoric comes from.
And AMERICA is also aware that, once again, Faux News edited the clip of Hoffa’s speech. All the lies in the world won’t change that truth.
You people are an embarrassment to our nation.
It’s no wonder the gop has the lwest approval rate in US history.
Debbi 'was a man' Shultz commented:
“Hey, if you think language really matters then I’ve got a bridge to sell you flat earth rocket surgeons!”
and
“derrrr uhhh uhhhh errrrr duuuuuhhhhhhhh”
Both are direct transcripts. No need to listen. Your eyes will bleed. This ‘woman’ represents all the most despicable aspects of the human condition.. and cowardice in general. She’s a worm who’d sell her own mother into slavery if it meant she’d get a promotion. I’d like to see some IQ results, too. Not thinking she’s too bright. How she and people like Pelosi have risen so high in politics shows you all you need to know about why we’re in such trouble.
Andreas K. commented:
Bill Mitchell, that is assuming that the average voter has an attention span longer than a garden frog.
I’m expecting most, if not all, GOP candidates forgetting about all of this and not using it for campaigning.
tHE pUNIsHER, you do realize (most likely you don’t) that an “elected member of Congress” basically only won a popularity contest, right? There are NO qualifications required for this “job”. The guys picking up your trash with their trucks need to know more than a congressman or senator. They have higher job requirements. But carry on worshipping the state. I really can’t wait for the EU and the US to collapse under the weight forced upon the people by the so called “leaders” like the undeducated Wasserman-Schultz. The woman is stupid, like the vast majority of female politicians. Need more proof? Check Merkel in Germany. She’s just as dumb. Her university degrees mean nothing (she told the Germans that they owe the wealth to the Euro, ignore that Germany always was among the rich countries in Europe, long before the Euro even existed, thanks to the HARD WORK of the German working people.)
Stuart commented:
Every time Debbie Wassermann Schultz, and Nancy Pelosi as well for that matter, open their mouth they present a living, breathing, argument, made manifest in the flesh, for the repeal of the Nineteenth Amendment.
mrt commented:
The Wasserman Cartel?
Seems her step-father was convicted for income tax evasion and just started serving a 10-month federal prison sentence.
“Richard Rubin, the husband of former Broward County Commissioner Diana Wasserman-Rubin, has begun serving a 10-month federal prison sentence for income tax evasion.”
And her mother is still facing 7 felony counts.
“[Diana] Wasserman-Rubin, 64, has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which allege that she made money by voting in favor of Southwest Ranches town grant applications that her husband wrote. Her husband only avoided being charged in that case too, state prosecutors said, because the statute of limitations, which runs for a longer time for elected officials, had expired for Rubin. The prosecutors said the couple spent the money on vacations, home improvements and artwork.”

Funny.
Little Deb’s name never appears, although they mention ‘the daughter’.
Go figure.

Iranian News Agency Publishes List of U.S. Citizens and Lawmakers
[Moreover, the campaign led by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and its allies against U.S. Rep Peter King, included a letter sent out by CAIR director Nihad Awad which vigorously condemned the expert witnesses said to have been invited to testify on Jihadi terrorism, including: Former Dutch parliamentarian Ayaan Hirsi Ali, American Islamic Forum for Democracy chair Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, and Professor Phares.
CAIR – a Muslim Brotherhood front group, as well as an offshoot of Hamas – is also an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2007-2008 Holy Land Foundation case (Foundation members were found guilty of “providing material support to a foreign terrorist,” among other charges.). Though CAIR has Salafi Islamist roots, the connection to Hamas links it to Iran and Hizballah.]
“A Call to McGill University and the Universite
de Montreal to Support Freedom of Expression”
[If this principle were to be adopted and turned into law, it would open
the door to a wide range of blasphemy-type criminal and other legal
proceedings. This is because it would suffice to claim that a criticism of
religion was "denigrating" to justify legal action. In effect, this Declaration
immunizes religion from criticism.
These measures embrace the line promoted for many years by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The OIC represents 56 Muslim majority countries and it pressures non-Muslim countries at the United Nations and in other international forums to prosecute their own citizens for blasphemy if they criticize Islam. Article 22a of the OIC Declaration on Human Rights in Islam reads as follows: "Everyone shall have the right to express his opinion freely in such manner as would not be contrary to the principles of the Shari'ah."
If certain of the principles found in the Declaration that will be discussed
in Montreal were ever to become law, it could be impossible to criticize
even the severe punishments meted out in some jurisdictions to those
who abandon their religion. Those Islamic religious authorities calling for
the punishing of "apostates", (1) for example, could claim that such
punishments are protected from criticism and public-policy discussion by
their ostensibly "religious" quality. The same thing could be said of the
sharia law provision according to which parents who kill their children may
not be charged criminally, a situation implicitly endorsing honour killing (2).
The principles espoused in the Declaration are totally incompatible with
basic human rights and the ideals that universities should be endorsing
in a free and democratic society.]

oh dear, Punisher, i’m not angry at you, just astounded at how stupid you can be.
The video IS uneditted, the transcript has been released. How can you possibly say that “sons of b$itches” is out of context:? What are you getting at?
And, in terms of “decency”, do you protest as loudly was when YOUR comrades on the left side call the GOP “terrorists”, “barbarians”, when they call Herman Cain a monkey? when the call for lynching of Clarence Thomas? Calling for the lynching of a United States supreme court justice? Or when they called Bush a murderer, called him a Nazi, or much worse, even though he was sitting US president?
Did you protest that, punisHer?
Of course not. STUPID and hypocrite. Kinda useless overall, aren’t you?
