Donna Brazile rips Schultz over 'perks' that kept chair 'fat and happy' amid DNC cash crunch
Fox News ^ | November 7, 2017

Former Democratic National Committee boss Donna Brazile, in her newly released 2016 campaign tell-all, tore into her DNC predecessor over the “perks” she enjoyed while the party was suffering from a cash crunch that left it dependent on Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

Brazile, former interim DNC chair, pulled no punches in going after Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz’ leadership style. In her book “Hacks,” released Tuesday, Brazile recalled how she was briefed upon taking over for Schultz on the many perks meant to keep the chair “fat and happy” – including a “big Tahoe SUV” with a driver, a “body woman” and more.

“Debbie had a chief of staff and a body woman. She also had media consultants and a fund-raising consultant. I was free to hire my own consultants, two or three if I liked, and bring in a new communications team. All of that would go on the DNC payroll,” she wrote.

Brazile was briefed on all these benefits by the liaison with Clinton’s campaign. Brazile wrote that she told him she’d sell the SUV and drive herself, and would not hire consultants.

“And God knows I didn’t need a body woman,” she wrote.

“WTH is a ‘body woman’?”

A woman with a hot body used to distract eyes from mayonnaise dripping from one’s head, but that’s not important right now.

It might also be what feminists and other idiots call a “female bodyguard”.

Just looked it up. It’s political vernacular for a personal assistant.

WTH is a ‘body woman’?...........................

A personal valet, a butler/secretary of sorts. "Do I need to get a birthday present for anyone? Seems someone's birthday is this month." "Yes, I already took care of that for you, your mother." "Great, what did I get her?...so when I talk to her I know what it was."

A body man or body woman is, in U.S. political jargon, a civilian personal assistant and sometimes valet to a politician or political candidate.

Huma Abedin is a good example. In Hillary's case I think the term goes well beyond being a mere "personal assistant."

I am not a fan of Donna Brazile, but I hope she stays away from Marcy Park.

Donna been on a roll the last week. Best former DNC Chair ever. (OK, setting the bar low there, but you get what I’m saying...)

Since I have seen Reggie Love described as Obama’s “body man”, I’m going to guess that a body woman is a beta vassal of some sort who gives their Mistress neck massages and the occasional `reach-around’ when needed.

Go Donna! Put the blocks to those dirty dogs.
She’s really letting them have it, isn’t she?

Donna Brazile's arkancide is on the horizon. It will be said that she just could not handle the pressure.

Before its too late, maybe Donna should state that she is not planning to commit suicide.
