What we have come to expect from the two timing double standard, flaunt the rules Democrats.
They are allowed but others are not, why can’t the public see this happening and appropriately punish them at the ballot box?
They will do anything, say anything and promote anything in order to keep their power won when Obama’s hope and change swept to victory. Hows that doing? They lie, they cheat, they manipulate and have the press in their pocket. A good example is the dinosaur in Miami called the Miami Herald and it’s writers.
SURPRISED?
Glad you published this. Have the “mainstream” media like the Herald or Scum Sentinel run it yet? I’ll not hold my breath.
But why should we be surprised that the nastiest, meanest, most lying B…. in the congress also breaks the rules. Is this not just what we’ve come to expect from the Democrat-socialists?
DO let us know whether the SE FL “lamestream” media ever cover this outrage. BTY Javier, see you up in Orlando for the GOP convention-straw poll next month?
Come on, what’s the story here, we all know the rules don’t apply to them. They have been getting away with this kind of stuff for years, whose going to stop them? The idiots that continue to vote for morons like her sure don’t seem to care.
Elma Fudd is your typical pathetic libloon joke. It’s up to the Republicans to go after her ugly behind and hold her responsible. As Elma would say…”weawy…we own the economy. Ooooooo…those Wepubwicans!”
I’d like to know when the people who makes the rules are going to enforce them?
What can be done about this instance…File a complaint to the House Ethics Committee or Elections Commission? Is there any legal action tax-payers can take?
I still want to know WHY she is being allowed to serve as an elected congresswoman and also be the head of the DNC?
This is not Kosher!
Come on now Doobie … get your kids in public school and enjoy your Koolaid
Rob, enforcing rules would lead to order.They need to have choas in order to get what they evenually want ; control then order.
This is why Marco Rubio advocates “comprehensive immigration reform.” To enforce the law already in place would not give non-citizen criminal invaders citizenship.
Has Debbie had some botox?
Ayone who would go on national TV and claim, as DWS has, that Obamacare will save us $500 bil a year can’t be trusted on anything. Outright partisan lies like that are her stock-in-trade. As someone recently said of her, she’s no lady. THAT is an understatement!
You people are disgusting. I received the exact same type of mailer from conservative icon Phil Crane, the drunken congressman for years. You’re all acting like this is the first time someone stretched the rules a little bit.
I’ve never seen a bigger bunch of self-righteous blowhards in all my life.
And we’re shocked? Gore fundraising from the WH offices, Bubba taking Chicom campaign $, it’s old news. But the hypocrisy of the Lamestream media is still a fact,
except today they can’t hide it from the net, talk radio and FNC.
What the F()&(@^#*(&$_@()&$()&!!!!!!!!!!! I am unemployed and this CVN+ is spending my tax dollars on her agenda! ARRGGHH!!!!!!!!!
We watched CD 2 Rep. Allen Boyd sending out campaign flyers several times “paid for by the taxpayers” under the guise of letting the people of Florida know what he’s doing in DC….what a sham that was, and nothing was ever investigated. Dems like him and Wasserman-Shultz will continue to get away with “breaking the laws” unless someone in Congress has enough guts to question their practices and have an ethics probe along with criminal charges. Otherwise, get rid of those laws so all congressmen and women can use taxpayer dollars for all their mailers! Isn’t this ridiculous! There is no rooster guarding the hen house, is there.
Debbie W.Schultz is as unprincipled as they come. The voters in her district should be outraged that while they are paying her salary for full-time represenatation, she is obviously not giving full time and attention to their issues. And, one can only imagine how much of her time and attention is being diverted and devoted to her position as the DNC chair. So, what kind of a deal are her constituents getting? ARE THEY AWARE? ARE THEY THERE? DO THEY CARE?
Barack Obama is the biggest BLOWHARD of all. He doesn’t have a clue how to run a business, and that is what the U.S. is, a business.
Whaddya mean “rules”. Don’t need no stinkin’ rules
Such a vile evil human being.
Hope you all are having fun spewing your partisan bile. At the bottom of the article, it clearly states the rules were not violated. But then again, when was truth ever a litmus test for the right?
No rules were violated? Wrong. The Franking rules were ignored. You can’t square the content of the mailing that was sent out with the Franking Rules.
For you lefties, the truth only exists to be distorted.
So, have you seen Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack’s mailer sent out last week? It’s a total campaign ad, paid for by taxpayer dollars, but nobody seems to care.
Rules are rules, and if they are to mean anything, everyone has to abide by them, and the standard should be the same for all candidates. If Mack is flouting the rules, she should incur the same penalty/reprimand as Debbie.
