Democratic House Chairwoman Wasserman Schultz Caught in Deception with Reporters
Washington Examiner ^ | February 10, 2013 | Susan Ferrechio

Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz attempted a bit of deception Monday in an effort to criticize GOP rising star Marco Rubio ahead of his State of the Union rebuttal Tuesday night. But on this occasion, the press wasn’t falling for it.

In a conference call Monday, Wasserman Schultz enlisted the help of Annette Capella, described by party officials as a “Medicare recipient from Florida,” to warn of the “extreme budget priorities,” they believe Rubio is likely to outline in his televised response to President Obama’s address.

Capella gave a lengthy and unflattering statement about Rubio, a U.S. senator from Florida and Tea Party favorite. She admitted he is an attractive politician but one who would make life more difficult for seniors by supporting a plan to alter Medicare by reducing benefits.

It turns out, however, that Capella is hardly your standard Medicare-dependent Floridian. She’s the Democratic Party’s state committeewoman for St. Johns County.

More of the astroturf.

The truth was uncovered when the call was opened up to questions. The first query came from a Palm Beach Post reporter, who asked Wasserman Schultz if Capella was the same person listed as the head of the St. Johns Democratic Party.”

Dumb Debbie busted again ping!

I am sure dumb Debbie had no idea that this innocent victim of Rubio was head of that Dem party group. And as Hillary would scream : "What does it matter anyway ..??"

Persecuting (questioning) this woman for exercising her constitutional rights is just more of the 'war on wimmin' as is making fun of Debbie, and Hillary. Ever hear of 'right to privacy'?

Since when is Rubio a “Tea Party.favorite?” Rand Paul is. Giving the tea party response. The Left is deftly setting up to run against the losing team of Christie and Rubio. Yeah, i said it.
