Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a racist.
Edited on Fri Jul-22-11 02:58 PM by Fuzz
So says Limbaugh:

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Rachel in Manhattan. Rachel, thank you for waiting. It's great to have you on the program. Hi.

CALLER: Hi, Rush. You know, Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a racist. She's a racist all right. She doesn't like black conservative men like Allen West. The horrible things she said about him, I think there was some kind of rally in front of his campaign office in October of last year before the election, that he hates women, and now she's a liar, she is nasty, she's the one that voted for Obamacare that took out the $500 million --

RUSH: Yeah, that's key. That --

CALLER: But she's a racist.

RUSH: That is key.

CALLER: You gotta give it back to them, Rush. She is a racist. It's that simple.

RUSH: She is running around trying to tell south Florida residents that Allen West wants to cut Medicare and Social Security when she herself voted for Obamacare which cut $500 billion from Medicare. Debbie "Blabbermouth" Schultz is deranged, folks. She is typical of today's American left. They are deranged. We face a delusional enemy. So this woman takes to the floor of the House and violates long-standing decorum by calling out another member.

Now, I couldn't care less. Times are we they are, but the House does have that understanding that members are not to be called out. She did it, and West replied. You know, West is a tough guy, and he is a brilliant man, and he's a good and decent man, and he has served in the US military. He's gone up against people far tougher than Debbie "Blabbermouth" Schultz, and so he fired back. This is not the first time she said this stuff about Allen West. She says it all the time in south Florida. It's the first time she said it on the floor of the House. So what did she do? She ran like a little crybaby to all these other left-wing women of the Democrat Party to help her out, and they start returning fire that West is the racist and West is the sexist and so forth.

1. Ah, a Limbaugh Transcript. Thanks so Much for Sharing That.
Feh!

You know, we know that Limbaugh is a moron and an asshole. I'm really, really sorry I clicked this thread. And there's not even a comment about what he said.

Waste of time.

2. I read a lot of blah, blah, blah
But I don't see what DWS said that was racist. Very curious.

I am amused that Rush Limbaugh, of all people, made a point of mentioning that Allen West served in the military, and linking that to Rush's estimation of West as a "good and decent" man. A "good and decent" man who was relieved of his obligation to serve any longer because of his abusive interrogation techniques (which in a civilized country would be called torture).

3. As the mother of a lesbian, I would no more defend
Pray Away the Gay Backman, than I would defend certain Germans back in WW2. Palin the Gun Toting Grizzly Mama? I am pro gun control and I don't kill animals either. I wouldn't name my kids after guns either.

Neither of these "ladies" represent me as a woman.

4. Looks like Rush is getting his money's worth from that scripted caller company
Free market capitalism at its finest.

7. Yup. Pillboy already knows what the caller's topic will be, it's all scripted.
They get their orders as to what that day's program will be about, and they then just wait for the call from
Limbaugh's staff when it's their turn.

8. SOP for the fascists
This is what they do - change the narrative.
It's an old trick, but then again - what's that they say about old dogs?

The clear and plain fact is: DWS said absolutely nothing derogatory about West. What she did say is the pretty much the standard give and take that is said everyday by opposing politicians.
He over-reacted, which is not surprising for him.

Now the ultimate racists, the fascists, lay out the racism claim. And the truly deranged, delusional nutjob, Limbaugh, has the chutzpah to complain that West is a target!! Like Obama is accepted by these people??

11. A Manufactured Outrage...
This is a very planned game here. West is one of the more endangered teabaggers next year and my bets are he's not getting much money from his district. He knows he's gonna need a lot of money to keep his seat and this scam is intended to make West look like the victim in hopes that rushbo's dittoheads will throw money at him. No sooner was his email sent then so was a campaign donation letter. And nothing will get a dittohead riled more than an "uppity" woman.

Here's hoping West is doing this out of desperation...knowing he's a one-termer and trying to make a name for himself in the right wing corporate welfare system.
