L.A. TIMES: DNC chairwoman supports U.S. auto industry so much she owns a Japanese car.
Oh, how embarrassing.
Like roll-up-the-tinted-windows-and-slouch-down-in-your-seat embarrassing.
The new chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee was criticizing Republicans who opposed President Obama’s bailout of the American automakers union, oh, no, make that American automakers.
“If it were up to the candidates for president on the Republican side,” said Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, “we would be driving foreign cars. They would have let the auto industry in America go down the tubes.”
So Michael O’Brien of The Hill newspaper went and checked what kind of automobile loyal-American-car-supporter Debbie Wasserman Schultz owns.
Yup, you guessed it — Japanese.
Drive as she says, not as she does.
Ouch.
UPDATE: Even worse, it’s a Japanese car that, though it’s built in America, is built in a right-to-work state!
