"I didn’t say he said that. And unfortunately, that comment
was reported by a conservative newspaper. It’s not surprising that they
would deliberately misquote me. What I always say is that unfortunately
the Republicans have made Israel a political football, which is
dangerous for Israel. And Ambassador Oren has said that we can’t ever
suggest that there is any daylight between the two parties on Israel,
because there isn’t. And that that’s harmful to Israel. That’s what I
said, and that is accurate. We have to make sure that in America we
don’t have people who put their love of party in front of their love of
Israel. As the first Jewish woman to represent Florida in Congress, I
take my love of Israel to work with me every single day, and I want to
make sure that we re-elect President Obama."
- Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Politifact called this statement "Pants on Fire!"
“Is it a violation of the House rule wherein members are not permitted to make disparaging references to the President of the United States? In two previous gentlemen’s statements on the amendment, both of them referred to the Affordable Care Act, which is the accurate title of the health care reform law, as ‘ObamaCare.’ That is a disparaging reference to the President of the United States. … It is clearly in violation of House rules against that.”
- Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as the head of the DNC, she bought the rights to "Obamacare" placement on search engines to ensure that people searching the term were first driven to government and pro Obamacare sources. Also, her claim was BS.
“I represent one of the largest gay populations in the United States of America. One of the largest Jewish populations in the United States of
America. Our region has a very large African-American population. It
really is belittling of the respect that we should have for these groups
to suggest that members of the armed services have somehow
systematically been the victims of hate crimes.”
- Debbie Wasserman Schultz
“I don’t see any swastikas or any pictures of the President in black
face or burned in effigy here (at OWS). The difference between the way we
express our First Amendment rights and the way I’ve seen Tea Party
extremists—Republican Tea Party extremists—express their right is
dramatically different.”
- Debbie Wasserman Schultz, What is she smoking?
"Democrats are unwavering in our support of equal
opportunity for all Americans. That’s why WE'VE WORKED TO PASS EVERY ONE OF OUR
NATION'S CIVIL RIGHTS LAWS, and every law that protects workers. Most recently,
Democrats stood together to reauthorize the Voting Rights Act....ON EVERY CIVIL
RIGHTS ISSUE, DEMOCRATS HAVE LED THE FIGHT. We support vigorous enforcement of
existing laws, and remain committed to protecting fundamental civil rights in
America."

"If you call it a riot (Rodney King riot) it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. Riot implies to me wild, crazed, uncalled-for actions and I’m not so sure that’s quite appropriate for what took place in Los Angeles. It was unfortunate that it takes things like this rebellion to wake people up. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable...It was only a rebellion… a spontaneous reaction to a lot of injustice and a lot of alienation and frustration...There were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes. Maybe they shouldn’t have done it, but the atmosphere was such that they did it. They are not crooks.”

Congressman James Clyburn, South Carolina State College (B.A.)

She also adds that] persons close to this administration are poised to make huge profits off America’s new war...We know there were numerous warnings of the events to come on September 11th...What did this administration
know and when did it know it, about the events of September 11th? Who else knew, and why did they not warn the innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered? . . . What do they have to hide?...I am not aware of any evidence showing that President Bush or members of his administration have personally profited from the attacks of 9-11.
