DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz slammed Congressman Joe Walsh‘s tirade against a constituent on Friday’s Morning Joe. “That’s the tea party unhinged!” Wasserman-Shultz exclaimed.

On CNN’s State of the Union today, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz criticized Republicans for voting against the American Jobs Act, and wondered when their leadership would step up and work with Democrats to fix the economy rather than just opposing the president at every turn. Candy Crowley highlighted the fact that two Senate Democrats voted against President Obama‘s jobs bill when it came to the floor.

On Face the Nation today, the heads of the Democratic and Republican National Committees faced off on President Obama’s record on the economy and the current race to replace him in the White House.

Midway through today’s episode of The Five, Bob Beckel mentions that he had been pretty “upset” during that morning’s meeting planning the day’s show. It was clear to any audience member that, by the time of taping, he still wasn’t in a great mood. Arms crossed and brow furrowed, he seemed to be visibly fuming as the other hosts trashed any “intellectual” who dared speak out against the Tea Party.

In the hours since the Jimmy Hoffa Voter Encouragement Crisis/Incendiary Rhetorapocalypse, conservative media figures have looked to the White House to provide some becalming wisdom to a shaken nation. At Tuesday’s White House briefing, ABC’s Jake Tapper asked Press Secretary Jay Carney how Hoffa’s comments fit with the President’s post-Tucson remarks in January.

Rush Limbaugh promised listeners today that he was in a “fit to be tied mood” and, boy, was he. Right at the top, he launched into a classic rant about Barack Obama and James Hoffa that featured such Limbaugh touches as accusing Obama of either suggesting or actually writing Hoffa’s controversial comments as well as insisting that Nino Rota’s theme from The Godfather play under the entire segment.

DNC Chairperson Debbie Wasserman-Schwartz appeared on Fox and Friends this morning, ostensibly to discuss the competing jobs plans that are set to be put forth this week by the White House and GOP candidate Mitt Romney. The conversation quickly turned to the controversy/distraction du jour: the recent anti-Tea Party comments made by Jimmy Hoffa in which he said “let’s take these son-of-a-bitches out!” Things became rather heated between host Gretchen Carlson and Wasserman-Schultz.

With all the Michele Bachmann news happening today and Tim Pawlenty suddenly dropping out of the race, let us not forget the sudden entrance of Rick Perry into the Republican presidential field. The Texas governor has breathed new life into the campaign, and could potentially shake up what has been described as a relatively lackluster assortment of candidates. But on Face the Nation today, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz simultaneously bashed Perry for taking credit for job creation in Texas while defending President Obama’s record on job creation and the economy during his term of office so far.

One of the few people who knew ahead of time that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords would appear in Congress Monday to cast her vote on the debt deal, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Shultz described the moment–and the planning that went into it–on CNN’s American Morning Tuesday, telling Ali Velshi the sight of Giffords–who was nearly killed in a shooting spree in Tucson in January–had an instant effect on the divided House, filling it with electricity. “Gabby melted our hearts.”

As we reported yesterday, House Republicans were treated to a special presentation by Rep. Kevin McCarthy during a party meeting to figure out how to sort out the debt ceiling crisis, where members viewed a clip from Ben Affleck‘s The Town in an attempt to unite the party behind John Boehner‘s plan. The response was [...]

Those looking for fodder with which to label Florida Republican Rep. Allen West sexist, the most recent of which being his email rant to DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz calling her “vile” and “not a lady” (though his misunderstanding of the lives of Spartan women is definitely up there). In her weekend commentary today, however, Fox News contributor Liz Trotta avoided the usual gripes, instead bringing up the unusual complaint that being a “big biker” have led some to call him “anti-women.”

Today on his radio show, Rush Limbaugh fielded a caller accusing Debbie Wasserman Schultz of racism and a liar in her scuffle with Allen West. Limbaugh agreed, calling Wasserman Schultz “deranged” and “typical of the American Left” and lamenting that no Republicans are getting West’s back against the Liberal “hit squad” that’s targeting him, instead leaving the job up to “talk radio hosts.”

Republican Congressman Allen West spoke with Stuart Varney this morning on Fox Business’ Varney & Co. about the ongoing feud between him and fellow Florida House member Debbie Wasserman Schultz. West showed no remorse for his language in an e-mail calling Wasserman Schultz “vile” and “not a lady,” and promised about the possibility of any apology, “that’s not happening.”

Earlier this week, DNC Chair (and House Representative) Debbie Wasserman Schwartz (D-FL) took to the floor of the House and derided the GOP’s latest budget plan known as “Cut, Cap and Balance.” Rep. Allen West (R-FL) took great exception with her comments and sent an email to the DNC chair calling her “vile,” a “coward,” and “not a lady.” Last night Stephen Colbert drew a sharp distinction between the two by juxtaposing the sharp rhetoric of each, and quickly devolves into Colbert shouting “whore” (and much worse) at the image of Wasserman Shultz.

Rep. Allen West has outraged a good number of people in the media with his infuriated email against DNC chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, in which he calls her “vile” and “a coward” and a number of other colorful epithets. The email was so venomous, it seems some that may agree with the sentiment hesitate to support it. Take, for instance, Bill O’Reilly, who argued today that the exchanges between the two were “nasty” and “personal” and that Rep. West “hurt himself” by not explaining himself more publicly.

It didn’t take long for Rep. Allen West‘s fundraising email calling DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz a series of harsh insults– “vile, despicable, unprofessional… not a lady… coward”– to set fire to the blogosphere and, predictably, it has not taken Rep. West too long to issue an apology. As accusations of sexism mounted against him, the Congressman told reporters today that he “just apologized” for the email personally.

Rep. Allen West (R-FL) launched a blistering, sexist attack on Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz via email Tuesday, calling her “vile, unprofessional , and despicable,” and saying that she is “not a Lady.”

West’s attack followed remarks by Wasserman Schultz on the House floor during debate over the so-called “Cut, Cap, and Balance” bill, which begs the question, given the bilious nature of his email, what the hell did she say?

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz appeared with Andrea Mitchell earlier today and expressed her displeasure with Senator Mitch McConnell’s plan to “shove” the debt ceiling decision back on President Obama. Instead she argued Americans want everyone in Washington to sit at the table like grown-ups and work out a deal. And she was just getting started with her maturity-based analogies.

The latest “controversy” (?) to hit the administration comes as at least one conservative women’s group lashed out against comments by President Obama that Democratic National Committee Chairman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has a “dazzling” and “cute” smile. While some cried sexism, on Fox News today a panel noted that there was a “double-standard” between conservatives and liberals on such matters, but that everyone likes being told they have a nice smile.

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and her new sparring partner Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus appeared together on Meet the Press this morning. Yet unlike the bipartisan agreement on Face the Nation regarding the Anthony Weiner scandal, the two party chairs were quick to point the finger at one another regarding which party has worse leadership.

After a week of tense silence from the Democratic leadership, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz have stated their wish for Rep. Anthony Weiner to step down from his position in Congress. This statement comes in light of the recent discovery that the police are currently investigating his interactions with an underaged girl over the internet.

It’s a general rule of thumb that whenever a politician says something negative about their opposition, they better not be guilty of the same thing, otherwise they would end up looking incredibly foolish.

Last night the new chair of the Democratic National Committee, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, appeared with Rachel Maddow and proved she is ready to unload some fighting words on her Republican opponents. Wasserman Schultz declared Republicans are blaming all problems in the economy on the people who are most vulnerable and passionately argued that the Democratic alternative is better.

Last Monday, we all hoped that the death of Osama bin Laden would bring this fractured country together, that it would be a common good that reminded us that we were all American brothers and sisters, and that May 1st would join September 12th as a symbol for putting aside differences. Then we turned on the TV and radio and realized just how wrong we were. Sigh. But, wait, what’s that sound? Did I just hear someone call this a “week for unity?”

Democratic Congresswoman and soon to be new chair of the Democratic National Committee Debbie Wasserman Schultz is getting fired up about the budget battle and answering the call from some who wondered where is the passion from the Democrats. Wasserman Schultz called the Republican budget full of “reckless and shameful cuts” and didn’t stop there.
