Dear Members and Friends,

 

Congresswomen Allyson Schwartz (PA-13) and Debbie Wasserman Schultz teamed up at Love Park this past week to, once again, conjure up hatred of conservatives and Republicans by labeling them anti-women.

 

Just a few months ago, Wasserman Schultz accused the Tea Party of creating the  

environment that led to the shooting of Congressman Gabby Giffords.  

 

In reality, Congresswoman Giffords was gunned down by a crazed maniac who, by all

accounts, was more representative of Occupy thanTea Party.

 

At the time of her statement (see press release below), we called on Wasserman Schultz

to resign from the DNC Chair for smearing the Tea Party.

 

Of course, nothing happened--no apology, no cry of fowl from the MSM, and no resignation.

 

Wasserman Schultz and her gal pal, Allyson Schwartz, were obviously emboldened.

No one, it seems, except a few talk show hosts like Dom Giordano and Rita Cosby,  

were paying any attention.

 

Where were these two Congresswomen when the vicious left wing misogynists, such as Bill Maher and Andrew Sullivan, victimized Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann?  Certainly not at Love Park to protest the injustice. 

 

The phony anti-woman campaign is nothing but pure political agitation propaganda--and we should all call them on it.

 

We may not be able to hold Floridian Wasserman Schultz accountable for her egregious

actions--but we can certainly attempt to oust Allyson Schwartz from her local political perch.

Association Leader Says Wasserman Schultz Knows Tea Party Not Responsible For Tuscan Shooting; Says DNC Head Exploiting Tragedy For Political Gain And Should Resign Chair

 

Philadelphia, PA (January 11, 2012) -- At a New Hampshire Press Conference, today, the Democratic National Committee Chair,

Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, blamed the Tea Party for creating the climate which led to last year's shooting of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords in Tuscon, Arizona.

 

"We need to make sure that we tone things down, particularly in light of the Tucson tragedy from a year ago, where my very good friend, Gabby Giffords -- who is doing really well, by the way, -- [was shot]," Debbie Wasserman Schultz said. "The discourse in America, the discourse in Congress in particular . . . has really changed, I'll tell you. I hesitate to place blame, but I have noticed it takes a very precipitous turn towards edginess and lack of civility with the growth of the Tea Party movement.

 

"After the 2010 election, when you had the Tea Party elect a whole lot of their supporters . . . you had town hall meetings they tried to takeover . . . when they disagree with you -- you're not just wrong -- you're the enemy."

 

"It's obvious that Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz is exploiting the Tuscon tragedy, in which several innocent civilians were killed and several more injured, for purely partisan political gain," said Association President, Teri Adams.

 

"Wasserman Schultz and the Democrats know very well that the perpetrator of the Tuscon shooting was an unstable individual with left wing sympathies,

someone whose world views were more like Occupy than Tea Party.

 

"The fact that this murderous rampage is being used to discredit and defame a movement that had nothing to with is extremely despicable.

The obvious goal of Wasserman Schultz is to render the Tea Party movement  impotent for the 2012 election." 

 

"That's simply not going to happen.  The Tea Party will unite around the Republican nominee, whoever it is, to defeat the President Barack Obama.  Wasserman Schultz is unwittingly helping to unite us," said

Ms. Adams.     

 

"If a Tea Party leader were to blame the Democrats or Occupy for this kind of a tragedy, he or she would rightfully receive the wrath of every editorial board and every pundit in the nation.  That individual would then 

be forced to apologize and step down from his or her post.

 

"With that in mind, Wasserman Schultz should apologize and then step down as DNC Chair," Ms. Adams concluded.
