Hypocrisy: Head of DNC, who knocks Republicans for not supporting US carmakers, drives a Japanese car

debbie-wasserman-schultz

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Barack Obama’s brand new, hand-chosen Chairwoman of the Democrat National Committee, spoke at a forum sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. She was fired up. She was angry. She took the Republicans to task for opposing the administration’s giveaways to the autoworkers union.

“If it were up to the candidates running for president on the Republican side,” Wasserman-Schultz said, “we would be driving foreign cars.”

Why, those damn Republicans! Those evil conservatives! Those awful import-buying, Tea Partying …

Unfortunately, reporter Michael O’Brien of The Hill followed Wasserman-Schultz into the parking lot to see what kind of car she was driving.

Oops.

The Congresswoman climbed into 2010 Infiniti FX35. And last time we checked, the Infiniti was a Japanese car.

This woman could make the Democrats think of the good ol’ days when Howard Dean was the party’s chairman.

  • THEN after she was called out on that she stated that people are making a big deal out of it in order to distract the country from larger and more important issues :-/ Riight...

  • She is ugly on the inside and on the outside-which is seemingly a liberal tradition. She reminds me of the mean lesbian that ran the stables where I worked and took riding lessons when I was a kid.
    That said-how fugly would the kids be if she and tony weiner were to mate? EWWWWWWW!

  • Actually the story gets even worse. The Nissan is now legally a FRENCH car since they merged with Renault a few years back.

  • "Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Barack Obama’s brand new, hand-chosen Chairwoman of the Democrat National Committee...."

    Her teleprompter doesn't work any better than his.

  • This isn't news; it would be news if a Progressive did not behave like a complete hypocrite.

  • As long as the UAW and its allies in DC and Detroit continue to knock out greenie weenie cars I'll continue to plan to buy locally produced foreign automobiles. I'm not going to help these thugs continue to rape us!

  • Always nice when they appoint an over-the-top caricature of themselves in a position of power -- hard for the media to bury stories like these.

  • This woman needs to go home and stick to making sandwiches for her husband and have a warm glass of stfu...
