   Gas bag Wasserman Schultz: 'I shouldn't

   U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz,  (D-Fla.), apologized   
   Thursday saying that she "shouldn't have used" the language she   
   did when she attacked Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker Wednesday.   
      
   According to a Washington Post story, Wasserman Schultz, the   
   chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, used references   
   to domestic violence when describing Walker's record.   
      
   The Florida Democrat said that Walker, a Republican, had given   
   women "the back of his hand" by signing a bill that prevents   
   those discriminated against in the workplace from seeking   
   punitive and compensatory damages.   
      
   "What Republican tea party extremists like Scott Walker are   
   doing is they are grabbing us by the hair and pulling us back.   
   It is not going to happen on our watch," she added.   
      
   According to a story from Politico, Wasserman Schultz, through a   
   spokeswoman, said Thursday that she "shouldn't have used" the   
   language to describe  Walker's record on women's issues.   
      
   Her full statement read:   
   I shouldn't have used the words I used. But that shouldn't   
   detract from the broader point that I was making that Scott   
   Walker's policies have been bad for Wisconsin women, whether   
   it's mandating ultrasounds, repealing an equal pay law, or   
   rejecting federal funding for preventative health care, Walker's   
   record speaks for itself. As for the issue of domestic violence,   
   it's unacceptable that a majority of Congressional Republicans   
   opposed this critical legislation, of which I was a proud   
   cosponsor, after blocking its reauthorization for more than a   
   year.

   For your own health -- don't EVER get between her and a   
   microphone.  You'll get trampled.

   representing the DNC, VERBATIM!

   She didn't apologize. She just said she shouldn't have used the   
   words she used. Sgt. Schultz is the ugly face of the D-bagger   
   movement.

   I wish politicians, all parties, would stop apoligizing. I want   
   one that when questioned about something they said looks dead in   
   the camera and says something to like this: That is what I said,   
   that is what I meant , I don't like the guy I hope he gets   
   cancer and dies along with his whole family. But I don't like   
   civil campaigns, sling mud, blood, and beer.

   Somebody needs to grab her by the hair and slap her ugly face.   
   Just the feminine perspective.
