Maher, appeared to warm to the idea that it was a lie, but at crunch time decided…
Pathetic Piers Morgan Rolls Out the Red Carpet for DNC Chair
October 15th, 2013 1:52 PM
Does Piers Morgan even try to show integrity anymore? The CNN host goaded the chair of the DNC into bashing Republicans on his Monday night show and plugged her new book without asking her one tough question about her own party.
Morgan's first question to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) was this pathetic softball: "What is going on with the GOP right now?" Schultz laid into her…

Not News: Wasserman Schultz and Moran Whine About Staff Budget Cuts
March 24th, 2013 8:03 AM
As hard as the establishment press has worked over the years to make certain politicians appear to be somehow out of touch with the situation of average Americans, you might think that two legislative leaders complaining about cuts in their Congressional offices' allowance might be news. One whined that her aides, some of whom "earn" in excess of $100,000 per year, are being "priced out" of a…
Wasserman Schultz: Women Politicians 'Build Consensus, Put Aside Petty
November 13th, 2012 8:57 AM
Should Debbie Wasserman Schultz lose her DNC job, there's always a stand-up gig waiting at the Laff Shack . . .
On Morning Joe today, DSW managed to maintain a straight face while claiming that if women ruled Washington, they'd be able to fix the fiscal cliff because they "build consensus" and "put aside petty differences." The litany of Wasserman Schultz's hyper-partisanship is long,…
Romney Accused of Lacking Transparency & Reticence on MSNBC
November 1st, 2012 4:58 PM
Forget about Benghazi, Fast & Furious, Solyndra, etc. -- it's Mitt Romney who has serious problems with transparency if you're to believe the talking heads at MSNBC. He hasn't taken questions from reporters for three whole weeks, groused Ed Schultz on the Halloween edition of his program.
Of course, President Obama hasn't exactly been willing to talk to the press corps either. As we've…

In today’s broadcast of MSNBC Live, host Thomas Robert interviewed Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz about the presidential campaign, where she naturally got in all her anti-Romney, pro-Obama talking points.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz Refuses to Apologize to Reporter She Falsely
September 5th, 2012 10:59 PM
Earlier today I wrote about how Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz was caught lying about a reporter misquoting her. That reporter, Philip Klein of the Washington Examiner, did, in fact accurately quote her and produced the audio of Wasserman Schultz to prove it.
Fast forward to this evening, as Adam Kredo of the Washington Free Beacon reports that Wasserman…

When Will Media Critique DNC Chairwoman Wasserman Schultz's Tenuous Re
September 5th, 2012 12:28 PM
While MSNBC is on an all-out effort to tar GOP vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan as a liar for having leveled completely accurate statements in his nomination speech at last week's convention, you can expect the Democrat-friendly network, along with most other media outlets, to overlook Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's history of a tenuous relationship with…
Anderson Cooper Takes DNC Chair Wasserman Schultz to Task for Misquoti
August 24th, 2012 1:18 PM
There are some lies told by the DNC that even CNN can’t let slide. Such is the case with a recent DNC fundraising email written by Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz which misquotes the L.A. Times in order to attack Mitt Romney.
The email at question centers around the RNC platform on abortion which has remained the same for the past twelve years in its steadfast support for the protection…
Piers Morgan Refutes Wasserman Schultz Calling Walker 'Extremist': 'Th
June 7th, 2012 12:33 PM
DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz has made ludicrous accusations against Republicans before and the media have failed to admonish her, but CNN's Piers Morgan stomped on her argument on Wednesday night that Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's policies were "extremist."
"If you keep calling him an extremist but you accept that he won, what does that say about the people of Wisconsin? Are they…
