DEBBIE GETS BUSTED, BUT STICKS TO HER LIES...

Whether or not you agree with Anderson Cooper’s politics, which I do not, he is said to be one of the last real journalists left in the mainstream media. And during his CNN show on Thursday, the host proved that during his “Keeping Them Honest” segment where he ripped into Rep. Debbie Wizzerman Schultz for “misquoting” a Los Angeles Times article in a fundraising email, in which she attempted to tie GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s abortion stance to Rep. Todd Akin’s. Akin, as I'm sure you all know, came under fire this week from all sides for arguing that women’s bodies can prevent pregnancies in cases of "legitimate rape." That old Anderson was so intense when dealing with a fellow liberal was surprising to me. But like they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day.


The email in question argued that the GOP “just voted to embrace Akin’s position by including a constitutional ban on all abortions — even in cases of rape or incest — in their 2012 platform.” Schultz also criticizes Romney and his running mate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) in the email for “saying they don’t entirely agree with that plank.” Cooper then addressed the LA Times quote that Schultz used to make her point, which he says she “misquoted.” From the email: “…but guess what? The Los Angeles Times reported yesterday that the platform was, and I quote, ‘written at the direction of Romney’s campaign.’” Those exact words did actually appear in the LA Times, Cooper explained, but Schultz took them “completely out of context.”


Now, here is the entire paragraph that was printed in the Times earlier this week: There is no doubt about who is in charge, of course. Delegates for presumptive nominee Mitt Romney are voting down substantive changes to the platform language that was written at the direction of Romney’s campaign. The biggest question is whether the tone remains polite, as it was at the outset of two days of deliberations, or whether dissenters spoil the image of harmony that the Romney campaign is working hard to produce. You see, the Times article is saying the Romney campaign helped make suggestions for the GOP platform, but it makes no mention of abortion policy. Cooper confronted Schultz for taking the quote out of context to further her own political agenda.


Is this bimbo not a bigger embarrassment than even Howard "The Screamer" Dean was? I mean here Wizzerman Schultz is presented with irrefutable proof that she took things completely out of context, and by the likes of Anderson Cooper, and still she maintains that it doesn't matter. She is the perfect example of just how dishonest those who call themselves Democrats really are. She actually makes the claim that it doesn't matter if she misquoted the Times, as long as she is trying to make her point, because her position is the right one. She lies repeatedly during the entire interview, and to Cooper's credit he calls her out on it. But it's like he's talking to a freakin wall. As always, Democrats feel that they can say anything they want, true or not, and they justify it by saying that their cause is to defend the greater good.
